    I like the Gen 1 miss for roughly the same reason explained here, it gives the losing side a reason to not forfeit early without actually stealing games very often

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    Pokemon that get a worse ability when they evolve: :Feebas: loses Adaptability for Cute Charm :Larvitar: loses Guts for Shed Skin (:pupitar:) then Unnerve (:Tyranitar:) :Bagon: loses Sheer Force for Overcoat (:Shelgon:) then Moxie (:Salamence:) :Duskull: loses Levitate for Pressure :Eevee...

    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

    Project Metagame Workshop

    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...

    Pokémon Presents - Pokémon Day 2025 - Pokemon ZA Info & Pokemon Champions Announced

    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...
