This sounds awesome. For an extremely minor issue like this if there's a simple implementation I am all for it and let's not waste any more time in policy review on it. On the aesthetic side of things I would advocate for a range (expressed as '6-7 / 8' instead of '6/8 or 7/8'). I don't know if...

Hi, I think if it's possible the best way to display a message for pressure would be the following: Swampert used Ice Beam! [Zapdos's Pressure] It's super effective! (Zapdos lost 38% of its health) This way there's no indication of speed or anything. Of course it's preferable if Aerodactyl can...

derptrio idiot there are about 1 million posts in this subforum and youtube videos discussing this exact topic if you would care to search for them. To play devil's advocate for a moment as I am personally in favor of at least a test of a dugtrio-free metagame, there is no need for an "excuse"...

Fruhdazi vs Prinz: I have to start out by saying I really like Fruhdazi's team. It's very similar to one of my most-used teams of the last couple years - my team has jolteon over zapdos and considerably less special defense on magneton (although leftovers with toxic protect is pretty...

Great week of adv! Let's get into it! River vs Zinc: I don't really like river's team. I know it's had a ton of success on ladder, but the inadequacies of defensive starmie were pretty huge here. Even if it doesn't get caught by a zap cannon on the way in it doesn't contest forretress at all...

Hi all I'll start this week by giving a quick review of the week 1 games before going into predictions for week 2. Fruhdazi vs Skarpherim: Skarpherim brings like exactly what you would think he'd bring (boring tss ft defensive starmie) and fruhdazi brings a pretty standard concept of his as...

Hi, I suppose I'll elaborate a bit because I couldn't be bothered to predict the games myself. I'll try to keep a running really this year of how many games I get right. Shitrock enjoyer vs skarpherim I had to watch a few skarph games in the last couple days because I haven't been paying as...

Same as this guy

He's right about everything though

Sand attack isn't banned. And if you're capable of laddering to the top 10 you could've participated in the suspect test and voted against a speedpass ban, like I did. If you aren't good enough to do that, which I suspect is the case, at least recognize that the players making the decision are...

People say stuff like this all the time but the last vote had 55% to ban and needed a 60% supermajority. It would be silly of the council not to revisit, especially as there is still a lot of complaining about bp from the community. If there's a more decisive conclusion I don't expect the test...

Hello all, The other day I made a post comparing this tiering debate to the American Supreme Court doctrine known as Chevron Deference. It was deleted for being "Wildly unnecessarily political" - a claim which I do not contest, but which I hope was due to a somewhat condescending tone and a...

Hello all. I have sworn a solemn oath not to post in the Policy Review subforum, and yet here I am. My belief is that smeargle ddpass and zapdos agilipass are very comparable - both have the potential for uncompetitivity and both have the potential for further exploration in the builder to the...

I apologize for misrepresenting you. When I read this it seems to be positing that there is a united playerbase which wants a ninjask ban, that such a ban would be a good piece of tiering action, and that the will of the people is being thwarted by the dastardly adv council and smogon tiering...
