Gliscor @ Toxic Orb
Ability: Poison Heal
- Taunt
- Earthquake
- Knock Off
- Roost
Taunt is extremely underrated on Gliscor. It's very clutch to alleviate the weakness of Gliscor's builds into aggressive playstyle (especially against set-up move users) while the combination of Taunt +...
Due to personal reasons, Eelektrone will be unavailable this week, and he gave permission to me and Drachenkeule to manage the thread meanwhile.

[OVERVIEW]
Mega Heracross stands out as a threatening wallbreaker thanks to having the highest Attack stat in the tier, access to Swords Dance, and its ability Skill Link, which fits perfectly with its multi-hit movepool such as Rock Blast and Pin Missile to form a varied and deadly offensive...

I'm fine with this if it stays as extra credit at first. In fact, if after enough experimentation, we figure out that adding replays improves the relevance of the analysis (without adding too much extra work), I'm down to making it the new standard.
I'm only talking from my personal experience...
If we only put a bunch of replays without any kind of explanations, I don't see the plus value of bothering finding qualitative replays. From my point of view, it's either we do it right and the workload is much higher than the current format, or we keep it minimal and that sounds kinda...
I'm a member of the QC team for SM OU and, while the idea sounds lovely in theory, I find it too unrealistic to be ever included in an analysis. Outside of the technical aspect of its implementation, it requires dedicating a lot of words to ensure that the reader will correctly understand the...
