Is rage fist on primeape legal? If so, does it have any niche?
Quaquaval and Excadrill are the best Rapid Spinners right now. I have no idea why you are using Blastoise. It is slower, does much less damage, and cannot attempt a sweep by itself.Why Did you banned treads? blastoise Is the only decent spinner now>:(

Drain Punch to the promised land basically. Light Clay is banned and it can't run Eviolte, so you're kinda forced to run fast Ape since the bulk isn't very good, and a good opponent isn't gonna let you farm them with it. It's definitely usable though.Is rage fist on primeape legal? If so, does it have any niche?
Your post mostly boils down to Diancie being problematic rather than Body Press users. You can make the argument for Diancie, but this is just a repeat of people complaining about Archuladon or Iron Treads and wanting a Body Press ban because of it. Diancie is likely the strongest Body Press mon right now, but the current state of Body Press users is fine right now. All the other users you mentioned are currently viable and ran on the ladder, and they're not broken or overwhelming. Again, I don't see a reason to restrict Body Press when we barely have 3 problematic users of it.Simply banning the Body Press abusers does nothing to the metagame. If Diancie, Skarmory, and Corviknight were banned, Carbink, Kommo-o, Cobalion, Metagross, Goodra-Hisui, etc. would simply take their place.
Damage modifiers like Payback replace the original damage modifier of the moves, and as Heavy Slam has no original BP it calcs it with base 0.https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9fortemons-2036836138
Ran into a bug where Heavy Slam won't work on a donphan in grassy terrain. Forte is Payback.
Thank you! So if I say ran Lash Out or Stomping Tantrum they wouldn't stack?Damage modifiers like Payback replace the original damage modifier of the moves, and as Heavy Slam has no original BP it calcs it with base 0.
Probably (hopefully) just a joke. Iron Bundle is banned so its unlikely they meant that.Not sure why Delibird was ever on the VR. Its stats are atrocious. Could it have intended to be Iron Bundle? It also gets present and its stats aren't crap.
Yes it shouldDo hex and venoshock stack?
definitely agree on latias, it doesn't need any investment in bulk to be able to take a couple of hits, and with draining kiss and it's solid damage output it easily turns a 3HKO into a 5HKO, the one issue i find with it is that lokix can force it out for freeHere’s some mons that aren’t on the VR but should be imo.
(Loaded Dice, Breaking Swipe, Crunch, Dragon Breath): Baxcalibur doesn’t benefit a whole lot from this meta’s mechanic but it can still abuse effect chances with its multi-hit STABs or just be a solid sweeper with Loaded Dice.
(Draining Kiss): Latias is a really solid offensive mon with longevity thanks to Draining Kiss and good bulk. It can often tank and get all its HP back with a boosted attack. Mist Ball is a good STAB that lets it duel opposing CMers too.
(Choice Scarf): with lots of snowballing effects like Charge Beam, Trailblaze, and Rapid Spin, Ditto is a great revenge killer
(Heavy-Duty Boots): This is literally just the best item for it with all the spikes going around
(Draining Kiss): It literally has draining kiss, no need for drain punch
(Rocky helmet): Contact punishing is great in this meta cause a lot of effects imbue contact on their moves. It can serve to limit annoying mons like Samurott-H, U-turn mons like Lokix, multi-hit mons, and Rapid Spin abusers.
(Body Press): Chesnaught is an interesting Body Press abuser cause it has two healing STAB options that give it nice longevity. It has a great matchup against Samurott-H and can blank some incidental mons with Bulletproof, but it’s really the ability to tank and regain all its HP that makes it hard to take out.
