Format Discussion [Gen 8] Battle Factory Set Discussion

[A Cake Wearing A Hat]

Gen 8 Battle Factory is finally out after years of waiting, and that means new bugs and new problems that need fixing! Post any problems you may find here, but keep in mind the following:

- Be polite and respectful. Pretty simple, this, just don't be rude about bugs existing or sets not being as optimal as one would like.
- Suggestions are not obligated to be followed. Not all suggestions will go through, that's a guarantee I can give you now. If a suggestion of yours makes it in, then good! But don't be too insistent about it if we say no.
- Please post replays or photographic evidence of any bugs.

a friend of mine got a levitate magneton in the battle factory, they didnt save replay or pictures but I searched the git file of battle factory and found it, and here is a screenshot of that set in the git. Hope this helps.

carvanha should be flip turn/liquidation/waterfall over aqua jet because it already has speed boost so it doesn't need priority

Hey mate.

This is actually standard for choice Vanilluxe. There's never really any reason to click anything other than your ice stab, and limiting the amount of moves to three makes sleep talk far more reliable against water types with freeze dry.

You can see here for proof.
