    Mewtwo runs Aura Sphere as the only option as Fighting coverage while Lucario runs Focus Blast and Aura Sphere. I think it should be the opposite. Lucario has STAB on Fighting ; if you intend to spam STAB post Nasty Plot, you risk a 30% miss chance on every attack by running Focus Blast which...

    I think Sand Rush CBand is extremely unreliable to be used just because team has one sandstorm user. Unlike other sand rush mons who usually can setup their own with Max Rockfall and who are also immune to T-Wave due to Ground-typing.

    Especially as Victini already runs U-Turn (so a momentum user) and is grounded. That would be a given HDB instead of AV.

    Unless a mon has setup +3 moves, it always have the chance of not getting both STABs or getting shit coverage. That won't change even if crunch and psychic fangs are removed to introduce wild charge.

    Could we discuss Heracross sets? Right now Heracross is a exclusive wallbreaker with Guts+Flame Orb and CC/Megahorn/Knock Off/Facade, which is a fine set, but there are more stuff it can run. Moxie works as alternate ability and it can setup with Bulk Up and Swords Dance since gen3 ; it also...

    I see no issues about it. I believe Steely Spirit was added precisely as Perrserker is so slow, you want to have the maximum damage possible with Iron Head, even if it is vs a resistance as you can partially break through it. CBand is already there to ensure that enemies can't simply switch to...

    That could be solved by forcing a rigid moveset of 4 fixed moves, like Wailord is able to get both Hydro Pump and Water Spout in its forced Specs set. I believe Ludicolo and Kingdra also circunvent the coding problem by having 5 moves and 1 of them being a setup move, so they either run Specs/LO...

    Double STAB Centiskorch as alternate set would be interesting. Both Fire Blast and Burn Up would be interesting options. Centiskorch is 115 atk and 90 spatk, so quite able to use mixed set. It is decently bulky but fails vs many physically defensive mons (mainly bulky Steels) because Fire Lash...

    Allow Quick Claw/Shuca Berry Pincurchin Pincurchin has weak bulk and leftovers is unlikely to help it. Due to low speed it is likely to use Rising Voltage more than once. QClaw allows it to potentially set a move in priority before being KOd, which can do quite decent damage vs most mons, or...

    I'd like to suggest for implementing Magneton with Magnet Rise. Magnezone right now doesn't run Magnet Rise, and even if it was added, it would not make good sets because its too slow. And actually, this is a issue that it have, as a considerable amount of mons it can trap can also carry EQ...

    Remove Grassy Seed from Rillaboom/Rillaboom-Gmax if Rillaboom is lead. Rationale: No other pokemon that I know have a consumable that is used right when its put on battle. As lead, the chance of enemy having a counter is high and so you'll often be forced back and have a itemless pokemon for the...
