[Mamoo]

Confirming as MNOME Alpha
Reqs were super fun to get :{D
I don't think Fluffy is in the same league as Fur Coat as an ability.
Not sure what I'll be voting yet but both being unbanned would probably help with those M-Heracross Intrepid Sword duos & strong physical attackers in general.

 

[Arcueid]

Confirming and fuck the bad rolls.

 

[PartMan]

Confirming reqs as MNOME hug rx.

Fluffy seems rather a bit lackluster, honestly. Same thing with Fur Coat - the main deaths are from the 8 times I get hit with Poison Gas and the half-dozen times my Dusclops rolled Self-Destruct anyways. ;-;

computerwizard8800 can confirm that the secret to getting reqs is hugging rx

 

[TheBrightRising]

Ill be voting ban
Reason:Fluffy is broken in metronome and so as Fur Coat Because Metronome has the highest chance to give a physical move
and both of them make physical moves do less damage

Confirming as mnome power:

This was the team I used all run:

Wishiwashi-School @ Choice Specs
Ability: Fur Coat
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD
Quiet Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Metronome

Wishiwashi-School @ Choice Specs
Ability: Ice Scales
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD
Quiet Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Metronome

I'd found this to be one of the most consistent Fur Coat teams I'd tried all suspect test on my main - the defensive teams had a tendency to lose to themselves too often (even though I found that Chansey could finally take hits on both sides), so I decided to pick a mon that I'd previously found was pretty powerful but had a bit too little bulk to really stand the test of ladder time: Wishiwashi-School. Then I found from experience that Wishiwashi-School's biggest attacks it is weak to are mainly special attacks, so I made one of them Ice Scales instead. I put Choice Specs on both and made them both Quiet because close to everyone is testing Fur Coat on the ladder right now, and I'd previously found that I won more often stacking the item and nature/ability boosts than putting them on opposite sides.

...The team was still inconsistent as heck, as you can tell from my screenshot. The team at least preys on frail mons in general, but it still is prone to losing.

This is the first suspect test that I have participated in (yay!) I think that fur coat is definitely a top tier ability, allowing dragapult to easily proc its weakness policy, but I don't think its so broken that it should be banned. There are definitely things that keep it from being broken (special attacks, status effects, etc...)

Also, here's the team that I used

Dragapult @ Weakness Policy
Ability: Fur Coat
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Relaxed Nature
- Metronome

Venusaur-Mega @ Weakness Policy
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Quiet Nature
- Metronome

 

[GooberGamer]

Unban both! We need an actual defensive ability that's not anti-status. Dauntless Shield sucks and physical attackers are OP anyways.

 

[Going Hard]

it was difficult but we made it, amaro montenegro sapore vero

 

[LeCehlou]

Ampharos-Mega was the goat ! Fur coat is strong but i'm not sure if it need to be banned

 

[Venous]

very fun, fur coat not that strong

 

[RL]

Fur Coat is so strong

 

[Scavet]

Confirming as MNOME Scavest, i'm quite proud of my gxe lol

Used this team:

Gengar-Mega @ Normalium Z
Ability: Magic Bounce
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Metronome

Glastrier @ Weakness Policy
Ability: Fur Coat
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Brave Nature
- Metronome

Fur Coat (and fluffy) is very good for any Pokemon that can use weakness policy, and with a Glastrier, it's very bulky too.
It also is probably really good on more stally Pokemon as well, but I didn't really see many and didn't use any.
Fluffy is a definite unban, leaning towards unban for Fur Coat as well

 

[Pajama_Day]

Pretty much same team as above, I could see Fur Coat staying banned.
