In This Game, my Min Speed (94) :Azumarill: was going to use aqua jet during trick room to kill the :Grimmsnarl: in front of it before it could fire off any status moves (like screens) that would make sweeps or partial sweeps harder. Instead it outsped (¿outslowed?) me and used Fake Out +...

There seems to be a glitch regarding imposter where Ditto cannot scout out the chosen abilities of mons that have already visibly shown one of their native abilities once that battle. In practice this means that its actually completely impossible to scout the given ability of any mon like...

With Trademarked coming to a close, here are 3 teams that I used over the course of this month. Each of these teams will probably be illegal or outdated in the new meta whenever this OM comes back, but they should at least serve as billboards of what was happening during each "patch."...

Forcing choiced mons to perform an extra move right before they attack cancels whatever move they were going to use that turn unless it's coincidentally the same move as the extra one they were given. You can see this in standard play by having a mon outspeed a choiced Oricorio and click a...

1.) Still no response? 2.) Update on the "Smeargle Imprison ™ + Transform" strategy while playing around with imprison + rage fist on Smeargle, I discovered that rage fist actually has its hit counter copied by transform https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9trademarked-2372759972. Not sure...

- :blobpex:Two more entries to the Skill Swap™ Argument in images below (I'm anti-ban btw) :blobpex:: To avoid this post being a nothing burger: - :unown-question: Incoming FAQ :unown-question:: Here's the obligatory "Why is Instruct ™ on the banlist, btw?" question (I don't see anyone else...

In retrospect, I should've replied to Clas rather than you. The main reason I'm pushing the fact that this isn't a bug is because that's why it was quickbanned (quickstricted? Idk the term) so easily. That being said, I don't think "it's niche so nobody will care if its gone" is ever a good...

This is hardly a bug. That Wake was clearly holding specs. Forcing choiced mons to perform an extra move right before they attack cancels whatever move they were going to use that turn unless it's coincidentally the same move as the extra one they were given. You can see this in standard play...

https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9sharedpower-2316141429 Shared power seems fundamentally broken rn. I had two back to back games of harvest never activating. First time I chalked it up to bad luck since I use no sun, but now I noticed that unnerve also does not seem to share. OM banlist...

:Serperior:-:Rillaboom:-:Hawlucha:-:Great_Tusk:-:Roaring_Moon:-:Heatran: Not sure if this counts as peaking #1 or #2, but I've had a lot of fun figuring out this metagame. Endeavor obviously wasn't going to be around forever, but for most of my climb I didn't rely on it all that much (I didn't...

PSA: For OMs like this one and fortemons that can let functionally fainted mons continue to attack, the move "endeavor" can essentially become a 100% accuracy, sturdy ignoring, one time use guillotine under the right circumstances. https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9foresighters-2071331431...

:Zangoose:-:Conkeldurr:-:ambipom:-:lycanroc-dusk:-:Shiftry:-:decidueye-hisui: (https://pokepast.es/8178a437763f5206) Normally, I'd ladder to the 1600s or higher to make sure I was actually cooking something good before I put it out. Sadly the OM's ticket for this month has finally expired, I...
