I'll definitely work to get my 20 posts in and submit it. id love to see this meta play out even if it turns out to be too much

Permanence: All pokemon stat changes, as well as some secondary effects, are permanent for the entire battle. Get intimidated by a lando? you're still going to be -1 next time you switch in. Get a swords dance up? You can switch out and come back later still at +2. Switch into sticky web...

Android Samsung internet v 11.2.2.3 Ive pretty much had it since I started using PS like 2-3 years ago Neis Anytime I import a team from pokepaste, it populates ALL the information for each mon in their items slot. Recently I got a laptop and have been playing on that, and importing works fine...

Is there any thread to discuss nat dex OU? Its not in OMs and Im really curious about how that particular meta is developing

Which would you guys say is the most auto-lose type disadvantage matchup and which is the most balanced?

The wikis aren't really clear on this for me (or maybe my reading comprehension sucks) Is future sight affected by boosts/specs/psychic terrain?

I only used june stats so this is slightly off, but if Ubers was usage based: Ferrothorn, Ditto, Magearna, Smeargle and Mega-Diance would be banned from OU (if you used 1760 stats Drill, Blissey and Cloyster would be too) OUBL would be ~33 mons (I might have messed up counting and I stopped...

Definitely feel like confusion, encore and taunt also be affected. Dont know if sub would be too broken though but I I like your baton pass rule of thumb. I also didnt think about how webs would work, I guess on your second switch in you go down to -2 speed? I feel like I want to play this OM...

I feel like those would definitely carry over. Maybe for shell smash have a white herb ban instead? I just dont want it to go too far one way (whoever gets their omniboost or +6 wins) or the other way (everything's banned so its just people fishing for SpA drops) On the other hand, maybe moves...

ETERNAL BURDEN premise: All pokemon stat changes and conditions remain regardless of switchout. This means that if you SD once youre +2 the rest of the game, if you get a defense drop you're -1 even when you switch out. This also applies to moves like Entrainment/Soak/Forest's Curse but does...

So umm, will Gen 8 OU just forever be Galar only mons, will smogon say fuck it and just allow everything or will we get like an unnoficial "unrestricted" ladder?

I wonder if dynamax will require the pokemon to also hold an item or if the trainer can just pick which pokemon to use their z-ring on. The stat boost can't be that crazy, right? Right?

Any tips for sand offense? I know sand isnt super good in USUM but Ive been playing around with it and seing if Mega Chomp has any redeeming qualities.

So Mind Blow now does recoil on blacephalon with Magic Guard? It didnt yesterday but it does now. k

Aaand I figured I should have searched better. Thanks.
