Would someone mind telling me the optimal evs and other moves for a stealth rocking mold breaker Pinsir? I'm assuming it would be some combination of X-scissor, eq, stone edge and close combat for the remaining 3 moves but I'd love to hear someone else's thoughts. Thanks in advance!

I'm wanting to build a team around Combusken at the moment, so I'd like to ask what are some good teammates for it to take on its checks/ counters, and also which mons are good to receive speed boosts from it?

Thanks a lot hollywood, very fun to use! Also fyi, I did change Aurorus to a Refridgerate/ hyper voice set and also made it timid to outspeed max speed timid cacturnes which kept annoying me. Could I also ask what Lanturn's ev's are supposed to do?

Never mind, I'm happy the tier has managed to lose those threats anyway - in that case could I request a hail team (obviously) featuring offensive snow-warning Aurorus? Perhaps even a rock polish set? Either way, thanks in advance!

Requesting a stall team based around Specially Defensive Gallade - I've given it a shot myself, but I'm pretty awful at teambuilding... Xatu's been a persistent problem for me, so a dedicated answer to that would be helpful? I've been building around this set, but any will do I guess: Gallade @...

I'll comment on the remaining three theorymons plus a small follow-up on Pyroar. Huge Power Plusle: I can't see how this would change anything tbh, a nice attack stat and good speed are offset by horrendous defences and a non-existent physical movepool as people have already mentioned. Still...

I feel like most people have said what can be said about the current slate, but with regards to Strong Jaw Luxray, I still can't see how it isn't outclassed by Electivire who possesses higher speed and isn't forced to rely on guts to deal significant damage which severely hampers Luxray's...

I feel like Emolga has always been doomed to lie in the shadows of Thundurus and Zapdos, I don't see how anyone could make a better version that makes sense flavour-wise

I'm curious, what's the difference between a bulky attacker and a tank?

Also I just realised on my Mega-Esavalier the defences should both be 130, not 125. Derpy addition error, my bad :/

Wow, first batch of megas and one of mine won, thanks so much! Here's 3 more, I can't come up with anything decent for Alomomola that wouldn't look suspiciously like other peoples' submissions. Mega Ferrothorn Typing: Grass/Steel ----> Grass/Steel Abilities: Iron Barbs/Anticipation ----> Razor...

Yeah, I agree we need to have a more streamlined moderation process once the winning megas have been selected. The mega-eeveelutions not having the same stat-distributions particularly annoys me. Btw, the next slate is: Alomomola Ferrothorn Klinklang Eelektross

Escavalier (Escavalite) Type: Bug/Steel -> Bug/Steel Abilities: Swarm, Shell Armor (Overcoat) -> Flash Fire Defiant New Moves: Sucker Punch, U-Turn HP: 70 -> 70 Atk: 135 -> 170 (+35) Def: 105 -> 125 (+25) SpA: 60 -> 60 SpD: 105 -> 125 (+25) Spe: 20 -> 35 (+15) BST: 495 -> 595 With Defiant...

So, I've been lurking for a while, and I feel as though it's time I at least gave this a shot. Mega Emolga Type: Electric/Flying -> Electric/Flying Abilities: Static (Motor Drive) -> Prankster New Moves: Topsy-Turvy, Defog, Perish Song HP: 55 -> 55 Atk: 75 -> 75 Def: 60 -> 90 (+30) SpA: 75 ->...
