Was going through the thread looking at stuff and the bit about Pult being freed now that Sheer Force is gone caught my eye. Look, I just want Golurk back since GameFreak smoked Rock Polish.

If I understand this correctly, the survivor mantle is always passed down the direction of team preview. Does this mean that sometimes your Pokemon will not get an endured hit? If I lead with Azelf, it expends its endured hit, but instead of switching to the Pikachu in slot #2 I switch to any...

I can't believe cotta dodged a killer two OM(x)L tours in a row by throwing his teammate into the meat grinder.

I'd really recommend squeezing TR in somewhere if you're going to run 0- Speed and no Mach Punch.

Choice Scarf is banned, but Eviolite and AV will boost damage if they boost a defense that is used for damage calculation.
