My experience with the format is limited thus far, but I’ve been enjoying it. Nothing seems abhorrently broken, but I would also be in favor of a Sacred Fire ban. It’s a bit too free burning things with offensive mons IMO. ———— Surprise, surprise, I’ve been playing Trick Room. It’s a pretty...

Is this meta only playable by challenge? I loved it back in the day. I haven’t played it since it dropped off the drop down (unless I’m missing it).

Battlefields Survey Results! Hello everyone! The survey has come to an end. Thank you everyone who responded! We had 19 responses in all. Council will be taking your responses into consideration as we explore our next round of Tiering Action shortly.

The Discord gang had a fascinating conversation/debate last night, mainly about the state of screens in this format, but also Quick Guard and Wide Guard. I also wanted to make a post here on these elements, not as council, but as a player, in the hopes of spreading that debate here, expanding it...

Battlefields Survey Edit: Hello everybody! Our survey has concluded. See below for the results! ——————- We hope everyone is enjoying Battlefields as the metagame develops. With the banishment of Trick Room and the egregious Ubermons most able to run away with games, the meta has become much...

Oogiboogi This is a really fun idea, and I got excited about it, and then someone on Discord reminded me Partners in Crime exists. They’re quite similar in principle.

Mr. and Mrs. Smogon… congratulations. You have a healthy baby meta.

Cuddly, with respect, please calm down. You are being pretty unreasonable. :/ I get the frustration, but attacking people isn’t going to move things faster. New OMs are rarely QB happy, as the current policy necessitates the burden of ladder playtesting to determine what’s broken. This isn’t an...

Drizzle is banned, and that’s Kyogre’s only ability.

Let's talk about hazard stack. After experimenting with a bunch of different playstyles to mixed results, I also realized that hazard removal is challenging in this format. I built a Hazard Stack Balance team that I’d like to share as an example. I’ve found it easy to pilot, and quite...
