:sm/Arceus: Arceus @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Multitype Tera Type: Ghost EVs: 240 HP, 252 Atk, 16 Spe Adamant Nature - Swords Dance - Extreme Speed - Shadow Claw - Recover Calyrex-S is a Pokémon that is very vulnerable to itself due to its typing and stat spread, it being a relatively frail...

I’ll vote for Ting-Lu

:sv/cyclizar: Cyclizar @ Choice Scarf Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Ghost EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature - U-Turn/Knock Off - Taunt - Shed Tail - Draco Meteor Hear me out on this one. The two obvious ones got taken so I needed to do what I do best and get creative...

:ss/kyogre: Kyogre @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Drizzle Tera Type: Ground/Fairy/Flying EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Calm Mind - Origin Pulse - Ice Beam - Rest/Thunder Tera Flying + Rest vs Electric Terrain sounds hilarious. Yes I did consider the fact that...

:sv/tentacruel: Tentacruel is the optimal partner for Arceus-Ground (or any Pokémon really). It’s typing, it’s stats, it’s movepool… oh wait… :sv/Toxapex: Toxapex @ Rocky Helmet Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Fairy EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Toxic - Recover - Haze -...

Tic-Tac-Toedscools Peaked gen7 and gen8 ladder, played in multiple AGPLs and AG Snakes, and built up enough of a reputation within the playerbase to get a strong sense of the community (say what you will of said reputation; at least I have one). I’ve made enough meme manager signup posts over...

My UU AG post was more directed at the players and not the Pokémon; sorry if that wasn’t clear before. Also if we have AG doubles, I’ll sign up.

While we’re on this topic, and given that UU Ubers just came out, why not do a “UU AGPL” at some point? It could be managed by vets and player spots could only be eligible to players with less than X games played in a team tournament or have some low number X or less wins in a team tour or some...

Two problems with your argument: 1. Caly has another and better option into Mandibuzz: Encore. It can easily come in on a roost and lock down Mandibuzz and severely limit its effect on the battle. 2. Dark types have a hard time competing for a team slot in a meta rampant with Koraidon, and...

Okay… :sv/orthworm: UR to C/D This isn’t ranked at all? Are you serious? No, it’s not the best Pokémon in the world, but it has an insane defense stat, a phenomenal ability in Earth Eater, and access to Shed Tail. It switches into Ekiller, non-Flare Blitz Groundceus, and Ting-Lu pretty darn...

Completely objective predicts based solely on skill at Pokémon’s: Lion's Den vs Crooked Crobats SV AG: Master Chief vs jb291 - due to jb291 containing both letters and numbers, it should make for a stronger password than Master Chief, so I give them the edge SV AG: Guard vs Future king of ou -...

I’m not posting to argue for a particular nom but I am curious about a couple placements. I don’t have a ton of experience in the format and am looking for insight more than anything else, so forgive me if my post isn’t as robust as people might like. :arceus: in S- I’m curious why this isn’t...

When Chloroblast is used on a Pokémon using Protect, it cuts the HP of the user on PS when it doesn’t on cart. https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9anythinggoes-1901610041

AGPL 2023 Power Rankings by Team Name: 6. Dave’s Dialgas Who is Dave? Why does he have multiple Dialgas? Is that even canon? I don’t get this name. There’s probably context I just don’t have that could potentially move this up the list but as of now I just don’t get it and view this as a very...
