Mega Raichu
New Ability: Technician
New Typing:

Special Attack: 90 ----> 120
Special Defense: 80 ----> 80
Speed: 110 ----> 120
Base Stat Total: 485 ----> 585
New Moves: Buzzy Buzz
Description: Mega Raichu is meant to be speed control. 120 base speed outspeeds everything bar Greninja & variants, the 130 speed tier, and Dragapult/Zeraora. It can use 90 BP Buzzy Buzz to have decent stab along with its 120 spatk and paralyze the enemy at the same time. It can also make Charge Beam viable as a 75 BP stab that has a 70% chance to raise its spatk by 1. Other options include Electroweb and Draining Kiss. Otherwise, it's just the same Raichu, only a bit better.

By the way voting starts now. Requesting either DrPumpkinz or Hematite to compile the subs.
Actually... I think I could try to do this whole compile subs job...

New Moves: Hydro Pump
Description: Mega Raichu spams high-powered STABs in Thunder and Hydro Pump thanks to No Guard. It has Focus Blast to serve as coverage for Ferrothorn. Lightning Rod pre-mega adds the cherry on top. To keep it balanced, it is still walled by multiple Grass-types such as Amoonguss, AV Tangrowth, and Mega Venusaur.

Mega Clefable
Type: Fairy ----> Rock/Fairy
Ability: Magic Guard
New Moves: Ancient Power, Power Gem
New Stats:
HP: 95 --> 95
Atk: 70 --> 80 (+10)
Def: 73 --> 103 (+30)
SpA: 95 --> 135 (+40)
SpD: 90 --> 100 (+10)
Spe: 60 --> 70 (+10)
BST: 483 --> 583 (+100)
Description: Mega Clefable is based on a popular belief that it came to Earth through meteorites, and it gains the Rock-typing when it Mega Evolves. Mega Clefable is the complete opposite of regular Clefable, the latter of which is a physically defensive pivot while the former is better off as a special attacker. The best set Mega Clefable can run is an All-out-Attacker set with Moonblast, Power Gem, Flamethrower/Fire Blast, and Thunderbolt.
Mega Clefable
New Ability: Cute Charm / Magic Guard / Unaware ----> Magic Guard
New Typing: Fairy/Normal
New Stats:
HP: 95 ----> 95
Attack: 70 ----> 120 (+50)
Defense: 73 ----> 93 (+20)
Special Attack: 95 ----> 95
Special Defense: 90 ----> 110 (+20)
Speed: 60 ----> 70 (+10)
Base Stat Total: 483 ----> 583
New Moves: No need
Description: Physical Clefable. It can act as a Curse sweeper, Belly Drum sweeper, or just a physical tank/pivot that is hard to wear down. Magic Guard prevents recoil from its powerful Double-Edge STAB while also preventing other unnecessary chip damage. Drain Punch gives it recovery and longevity which synergizes well with its great bulk. 70 Speed and lack of priority moves keep it balanced. Also unlike classic Clefable, it cannot absorb burns as it is heavily neutered by it.
and garbo, luxe and klklang slate when?

Speed: 60 ----> 110 (+50)
Base Stat Total: 483 ----> 583 (+100)
New Moves: Hex, Nasty Plot, Shadow Sneak, Will-o-Wisp
Description: Based on the conspiracy theory hypothesizing that Gengar is Clefable's "shadow". In a way, Clefable's Mega Evolution merges Clefable with its shadow, turning it into a tricky little demon-pixie thing. Competitively speaking, the Mega Evolution lets Clefable take on Gengar's roles in Gen 8 OU as a Nasty Plot sweeper or Will-o-Hex support, stopping it from doing its normal Wish/Port thing with the loss of Magic Guard.

Don't forget my Raichu!
well technically it was subbed after the owner announced the end of subs so that's why I didn't count it.
Unless someone gives me a good reason not to, I won't include it. I'm sorry.
Because it wasn't subbed after? It was subbed before.
Also forgot my Clefable smh
Uncle Iroh: kakaks, DrPumpkinz, IsoCon

i cant see the compilations correctly, they do not have the option to expand
i am just gonna tack in a sample so this does not becomes a one-liner

Slate 7
For Slate 7, we have our favorite Galar starters to work on: A Boomer, Bugs Bunny, and James Bond! This is also our last slate before we begin to code this! As always, you have 4 - 5 days to submit.
By the way, since Cinderace got banned from OU and that Mega Cinderace + Libero would definitely be broken in this format, I’m banning Libero as the ability for Mega Cinderace. Any sub that doesn’t follow this rule will be vetoed.
You may begin submitting!Reserving this post for subs

Mega Rillaboom
New Ability: Overgrow / Grassy Surge ---> Thick Fat
New Typing:
New Stats:
HP: 100
Attack: 125 ----> 155 (+30)
Defense: 90 ----> 110 (+20)
Special Attack: 60
Special Defense: 70 ----> 100 (+30)
Speed: 85 ----> 105 (+20)
Base Stat Total: 530 ----> 630 (+100)
New Moves: Synthesis
Description: In just one turn, Rillaboom transforms from a strong wallbreaker into a bulky offensive threat. Thick Fat eliminates its Fire weakness and lets it not be OHKO’d by even the weakest Ice moves. It also now gets recovery in Synthesis. However, it is weaker offensively than normal Rilla.
Mega Inteleon
New Ability: Torrent / Sniper ----> Adaptability
New Typing:
New Stats:
HP: 70
Attack: 85 ----> 110 (+25)
Defense: 65 ----> 75 (+10)
Special Attack: 125 ----> 155 (+30)
Special Defense: 65 ----> 75 (+10)
Speed: 120 ----> 145 (+25)
Base Stat Total: 530 ----> 630 (+100)
New Moves: Dragon Pulse, Draco Meteor
Description: Powerful special wallbreaker that sets itself apart from the other dragons is its Water typing and Adaptability. As a lure, it can also run Scale Shot to hit walls like Chansey. Its bulk is quite middling, however.

Mega RillaboomNew Ability: Overgrow/Grassy Surge -> Arena Rock
(Primordial Sea clone: Mega Rillaboom sets Grassy Terrain on entry, and it cannot wear off or be overwritten but goes away when Mega Rillaboom leaves battle)
Type: Grass
New Stats:
HP: 100
Attack: 125 -> 165 (+40)
Defense: 90 -> 110 (+20)
Special Attack: 60
Special Defense: 70 -> 110 (+40)
Speed: 85
(630 BST)
New moves: Jungle Healing, Toxic
Description:
A decent upgrade for Swords Dance Rillaboom sets - Grassy Terrain is no longer on a timer, so it can use full-power Grassy Glides with priority for as long as it stays in battle rather than needing to leave and set up all over again, and it has much better bulk to help with setup. In exchange, these sets effectively lose Acrobatics access - sets with Grassy Seed are still a viable alternative.
For straight offensive sets with four attacks, regular Rillaboom is still better - use a Choice Band instead for such a set!
Perhaps more interestingly, with Grassy Terrain that doesn't run out, it's also the closest thing we have to a Mega Evolution with Leftovers; in conjunction with Toxic, it can make it an excellent tank, with the option to be a stallbreaker using Taunt or Jungle Healing or to enhance its offensive prowess with Swords Dance and its Ground coverage of choice (High Horsepower for raw damage, but Stomping Tantrum may pair well with Toxic).
Mega CinderaceNew Ability: Blaze/Libero -> Scorching Soles
(Flash Fire "clone"... sort of: grants immunity to entry hazards and boosts the power of Fire-type moves by 50% when switching in on them)
Type: Fire
New Stats:
HP: 80
Attack: 116 -> 123 (+7)
Defense: 75 -> 115 (+40)
Special Attack: 65
Special Defense: 75 -> 115 (+40)
Speed: 119 -> 132 (+13)
(630 BST)
New moves: None for now
Description:
Meant to play like the opposite of Libero Cinderace - a Scorching Soles-boosted Pyro Ball is more than twice as strong as any of its non-STAB moves (meaning that, for example, a resisted Pyro Ball is still stronger than a neutral High Jump Kick), so instead of filling its sets with simple attacks of different types, Mega Cinderace has very little incentive to bother with coverage at all. This is meant to promote sets that focus on only one primary attacking move and have another three slots to dedicate to utility, including the valuable U-turn, Cinderace's totally unique Court Change, and perhaps something like Taunt or simply a backup attacking move (Pyro Ball's 8 PP might actually prove to be a significant drawback unless it can fall back on something else).
In addition to creating this distinct playing style, Scorching Soles is designed to compensate for Mega Cinderace's inability to hold Heavy-Duty Boots; Court Change would be impossible to use effectively if it had to take hazard damage every time it switched in to use it. This comes at the cost that it now relies on the presence of hazards to in order to fight at full power.
Mega Cinderace's primary function is to take a state of disadvantage (hazards present on its side of the field) and turn it into a state of advantage (reversing those hazards and gaining a damage boost to enable its own sweep).
I've always thought that Court Change was a much more interesting part of Cinderace than Libero and its capacity to be a physical sweeper, so I wanted to do something that promoted that rather than make it an even more generically minmaxed attacker. Libero Cinderace will still be used without Mega Evolving, of course - this does something almost completely different - but I'm hoping they can coexist in the meta and each offer something useful to different teams!

In moves.ts, everywhere this line appears:
add this right after it (but before the effect of the entry hazard):
Scoopapa helped to make sure this was okay and gave an important fix on the hazard immunity part! Huge thanks to them for their help!!
That said, it's possible that I messed up in transferring it here, so uh... definitely blame me and not them if this goes wrong! OTL Really sorry if it does - but I'm pretty sure it should work, at least!

Mega InteleonNew Ability: Torrent/Sniper -> Merciless
Type: Water/Ghost
New Stats:
HP: 70
Attack: 85
Defense: 65
Special Attack: 125 -> 150 (+25)
Special Defense: 65 -> 115 (+50)
Speed: 120 -> 145 (+25)
(630 BST)
New moves: Toxic Spikes, Hex
Description:
A decent sweeper or cleaner with Hydro Pump normally, but it shines the most if it's set Toxic Spikes to clean with Merciless + Hex. It has an amazing Speed tier to clean once it's set up.
Inteleon wants to be stealthy and mysterious (justification for Ghost type), is known for employing tools and weapons for its purposes (reason to incorporate hazards) and really, really likes critical hits (justification for Merciless), so hopefully this is a more interesting and fitting manifestation of its concept than what it currently has! You'll want to make sure it gets in safely against a special attacker - it's not going to take many physical hits, which also makes it pretty priority-weak, and... well, it's still not exactly bulky on the special side if it's only invested offensively, but at least it can likely set up one layer of Toxic Spikes against a special attacker before it attempts to sweep. Hopefully its Speed tier and strong Hydro Pump can enable it to force the switches it needs to set up safely.
STAB Hex also pairs nicely with its usual Hydro Pump and U-turn, giving it perfect neutral coverage with a spot to spare for Toxic Spikes.
Edit: I had Venoshock and Venom Drench for my Inteleon purely for flavor - there's next to no way it would ever use either of those in practice - but I just noticed the two-move limit, so I'm removing those now!
