ROM actually has a playable version of this metagame - Gen 6 Variations (code might be old and janky as my battle crashed while testing Rattled), where hidden power type replaces the tera type and the meta is limited to abilities only. - I tested Levitate among other abilities, and it seems...

TERA OVERRIDE sequel to the previous idea. This might involve quite a few case-by-case stuff... also found this (variations) existed later on. Ever wanted variations of existing moves, abilities and items? Charge to double the power of Fire type moves? Flash Fire to activate when hit by an...

this was a gen 7 metagame: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/mergemons.3591780/ other than that because you're using natdex, this would not be approved. You could try doing something based on Paldea dex.

yea paradox mons in general seem busted in this. For Steel though, Drought is only halving Fire, and Drizzle halves Fairy, Ice, and Rock. (On average, weather effects have like two types nerfed - they require a little type chart math to figure out tho). So for Steel type effects, Ground and...

not sure if something like this exists and how much of a pet-mod territory it falls under, but wanted to share it. TERAFORMED Premise Did you ever go like "Man, I wish there was a field effect boosting this or that type of move"? Well, that's exactly what this metagame aims to do. In...

had different versions of this meta pitched in the workshop at different times, so might just post this one as well, given the popularity of ideas with the "loop-team mechanic". Basic idea is the following: How do we make a budget rotation format out of singles in the simplest and least broken...

yea, I don't have a good answer. Status moves in general seem to be an obstruction. this old XY meta has a similar idea: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/coveragemons.3516193/

I'm going to repeat part of the above reply here. This seems highly restrictive as you're taking away status moves and have only one move. The idea also does seem like a partial mash between fortemons and revelation, except for the one move part. Not sure how this improves it but maybe have...

umm not to be a conspiracy theorist but.... gz

Yes, to first question. For second q, it's in one go. So if the opponent knows Leech Seed and Ice Beam, Flamethrower will steal both of them at once but it activates at the end of turn, so the opponent will still be able to use either move during the turn the moves are stolen. I think it might...

this is WIP and can't submit this right now, if anyone wants to take it (DM me first) or has suggestions for improving the idea, I'm all yours. EFFECTOMAGNETISM We all know what it means for a pokemon to take a super-effective hit, but what if we explored the idea of one move to be...

battlefields, fortemons, full potential

Harvest would recover the last used berry. Then that would be replaced by whichever item is next in user's shuffling cycle, if the turn number is even (could be the same item). So the mechanics of the meta comes into play after other end-of-turn things happen.

yet another item meta! This was submitted a while back, putting it out here to gauge interest and for potential suggestions (kinda the reverse order, sorry) Anyways, it is a hybrid OM between two forgotten ones: Gen 6's Recyclables and Gen 7's Dual Wielding. - INFINITE INVENTORY - source A...

BnB, Battlefields, Fortemons

unrelatedly was testing my favorite thing to test in singles and came across this bug: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/rom-gen9battlefields-2462058

Just to add to this, Ion Deluge and Plasma Fists also belong here and we're robbed of them... EDIT: Also Magnetic Flux might have been added there by mistake. Despite targeting user's side, this move is actually not turn based. You Wide Guard, then it's RIP MIR. Feint, Hyperspace Hole and...

contrary swapping + memento is a bit of an overkill when this guy and its signature move exist.

So from your examples, If I understand correctly, neither Ninetales-A nor Kingambit can get any legal moves in the meta and are forced to Struggle? I don't think cutting-off mons is something sought after for metas. There could be a better way to distribute the moves. Maybe every mon only gets...

1) Suction Cups and Guard Dog would probably need to be on the banlist. Seems fair, since Arena Trap, Shadow Tag (kind of the opposite abilities) are not broken in this and are unbanned. 2) Yea fair point, need something that can tank hits from its boosted SpA or something faster / with...
