A Foreword In my prime, I reached #3 on ladder with The Ultimate Scizdown, a team I constructed back in 2022. The team was constructed entirely on a whim, and with extremely limited knowledge of the metagame. As I continued winning, my fascination with the metagame deepened, and I grew...

Does GenOne have a post going over the design of the Metagross/Gothitelle team you used? I'd like to see details on how the sets for each mon were built.

I'm still working on my Scizor video, which I kind of expanded into a larger video on my teambuilding philosophy, but figured I'd pop in to offer my two cents on the current meta a la variationonatheme. To be clear, I've been in a bit of a funk and am far from my top-ladder glory days, but still...

I've been through the roof with excitement about the USUM UnderUsed tier in light of its return to the ladder through RoA Spotlight this month. I had played the format in casual games with friends and in room tournaments in the past, but never had a chance to ladder the format before. Despite...

I've been contemplating making a Scizor-Mega teambuilding guide for this meta for a while, this post has inspired me to finally start writing it. I'll post a link here when done. I have a lot of experience building with Scizor and once took a Scizor team to >1700 on the ladder. It's potentially...

I really want to hear your take on Zapdos - personally I consider Zapdos one of the very best Pokémon in the meta so I'm interested to hear your thoughts since you have it in the bottom of Tier 3

I made a TierMaker for the format, are there any mons you all think should be added that I don't already have? https://tiermaker.com/create/generation-7-usum-doubles-ou-502600

For archival purposes, the version of the team I'm currently using for laddering (simply bumps Incineroar's Speed up by optimizing bulk EVs): https://pokepast.es/d79b8a109cbc70ff

I have four fire resists

I'd like to jump in and mention that the exact six mon 20XX team I recommended as a sample was previously a sample team when USUM was the current generation, just with different sets: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/doubles-ou-sample-teams-and-team-showcase.3645990/post-8011741

Where can I find the usage statistics for the SM Cup of this Doubles Classic? I want to see what usage stats look like before making any VR nominations, to ensure my nominations aren't wildly ladder-specific and actually apply to the metagame as it exists in a high-level tournament context.
