    Data Pokemon Sun/Moon Battle Mechanics Research

    Didn't see mention of it in the OP so I finally got the chance to test this. The terrain seed items do trigger when a flying type holding it comes out when the corresponding terrain is up. So non-grounded Pokemon also can take advantage of these items. Screenshot for proof (sorry about the...

    Data Pokemon Sun/Moon Battle Mechanics Research

    Someone tested this awhile ago I believe. It doesn't bypass psychic terrain because the ability only sets up the terrain. The thing preventing priority from hitting the opponent is a field effect, not an ability. Incase I misread your question: the Pokemon with mold breaker can still use...

    Data Pokemon Sun/Moon Battle Mechanics Research

    Was this tested? I don't see any mention of this in the OP. I'd assume they wouldn't trigger, but the in-game text doesn't have the grounded part like the terrain descriptions.

    Pokémon Alola Exeggutor

    That's actually pretty amazing, but I don't know if Exeggutor himself would be the one it's amazing for. Seems too high risk high reward for this type of Pokemon. Is Showdown updated to reflect this change with those berries yet? I'd definitely like to test some brainstorm sets with them if...

    Pokémon Silvally

    I've been having success with a support set for Silvally. Silvally @ Darkinium Z Ability: RKS System EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Parting Shot - Flamethrower - Thunder Wave - Draco Meteor Thunder wave is for speed control against certain threats you...

    Programming UPDATE Nov 20th: Updated with Sun&Moon sprites and Z-Moves!. Showdown App for Android (beta)

    Instruct doesn't seem to work properly. In VGC 2017 format, my Pokemon fainted so I sent out choice specs Glaceon. I select instruct from my Oranguru on her, then click blizzard with Glaceon. The app just waits as if I didn't make a decision. Timer keeps going down until I pick a different move...

    Pokémon Golisopod

    I've been trying Golisopod a little on Showdown and I feel the meta is just too unkind to it right now to be very useful. I've been using him as a hit and run to pick off weakened opponents with his priority, but a lot of the current threats just resist his stabs or easily play around him...

    SPOILERS! Pokemon Sun and Moon Full Game Datamine General Discussion Thread

    I don't know how early this is since I don't have the games but this post points out the exact location of the daycare. https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/5c9b82/the_day_care_has_an_alola_form/

    Minior Discussion

    I meant stall in regard to unaware Clefable which ignores those boosts. Mega Venusaur handles it and Quagsire comfortably outside of sun and if you run HP fire on it also becomes a good answer to Scizor leaving Minior with less priority to worry about.

    Minior Discussion

    If stall mons like Quagsire and Clefable become consistent problems for Minior I could see Mega Venusaur, or even just chlorophyll Venusaur if on a sun team, becoming a great partner for Minior. He reliably takes care of those two plus Minior and Mega Venusaur's weaknesses compliment each other...
