    Metagame Battlefields

    Been having decent success with this team: :urshifu: :terapagos: :flutter mane: :cinderace: :dragapult: :meowscarada: There's literally nothing special about it, you just ignore/disrupt whatever the opponent sets up and click strong moves with strong pokemon. Terapagos can remove...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    The ending to this battle: I won't spoil it, but it's probably the worst play ever made in the history of competitive pokemon

    This is what I'm thinking for a starting banlist:

    Project Metagame Workshop

    Thank you, will look into it (though I'm not sure what to do about the whole council thing) I agree with freeing Volcarona and Terapagos, Regieleki I'm not entirely sold on as it could receive the coverage from another slot. I agree with almost all of these, but I'm surprised there is no...

    Skill shift Metagame premise: Upon entering the match, your team's moves and abilities are shifted by 1 slot: [/SPOILER] [/SPOILER] Increased Viability: :smeargle: Many great moves only have smeargle as a legal user :slaking: Can receive a better ability and pass on Truant to a...

    Isn't Mega Barbarcle like 80% confirmed from the 27-megas leak that everyone seems to be jumping on?

    Little things you like about Pokémon

    The fossil/ghost missingno. You know how Ditto's lore is that it's the most powerful pokemon because it can harness the power of all the others? Fossing/ghost missingno does that in the games: You can choose its typing and starting moves based on what pokemon you catch it with, but it does not...

    Metagame Nature Swap

    Some disappointments: :pikachu: You're supposed to be the mascot, we're supposed to joke that you don't get enough forms yet here you are not learning Extreme Speed. (Atk <-> Spe) :regigigas: Gigas is finally unshackled from its attack-halving Slow Start They stole Tri-Attack (Nature Power)...

    Metagame Nature Swap

    :araquanid: Atk/SpA <-> SpD :azumarill: Atk <-> SpD/Def :magearna: Already perfect! (If Atk <-> Spe it can't go 252+ SpA) :crawdaunt: Spe <-> SpA w/dd OR SpD <-> SpA :toxapex: Atk/SpA <-> Def/SpD :samurott-hisui: SpD <-> SpA :serperior: SpA <-> Def/SpD :enamorus-therian: Spe <-> Atk :spectrier...

    Metagame Twisted Dimension

    I wonder if there's a point to Electro Ball on Zapdos, everything else being so slow and all, running 31 Speed IVs with a neutral nature results in it hitting at least 120 power against pretty much any mon with a speed-halving item (unless their base speed is higher than 85). On a separate...

    Metagame Twisted Dimension

    Some disappointments: :serperior: Scale Shot boosts defense and speed but you'll need to use it like 3-5 times to be slower than a lot of the defensive pokes :crabominable: Ice Hammer (120 BP after Iron Fist) boosts speed and unlike Glastrier this has fighting stab, unfortunately, the -100...

    Metagame Pokemoves!

    https://pokepast.es/f0605e4944a22d07 As for a less gamebreaking bug, Type-based effects don't seem to be working for the pokemoves: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9pokemoves-2173533175-19mkn3kcoc4t2pn7fbjobji8d4823zppw

    Unpopular opinions

    Hacking rare candies is commonplace for Nuzlocke content, mainly because streamers realized that nobody wants to watch them run back and forth grinding a mon from level 42 to level 100 There are cases where you can't use an Exp. Share because that means something else is getting xp too...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    -The fact that Springtide Storm, Wildbolt Storm and Sandsear Storm are terrible moves -The fact that Bleakwind Storm is not a terrible move

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    When Iron Fist was first added, it was only given only to Hitmonchan so it can't be that they thought the pokemon were already strong enough. Either way, :melmetal: is here now and keeps it from ever getting buffed Mythicals not being allowed in VGC could be its own thing entirely, it made...
