Can we not try to make this a thread about "hey I don't like the test". Seriously, just read the PR thread - it explains everything (hint: Stage 3).
Honestly guys I haven't seen much stall out there. Maybe defensive teams, but that's about the extent of it except for a few players. I will disagree with the above posters and say that I think that the Latios metagame is a good bit more healthy and interesting to play that it was with Latias. While most players are running at least 2 steels / 1 dragon, the infamous "3 dragon / 3 steel" teams aren't really running rampant, and from my own experience I can say that Latios make them a lot less successful. Its high special attack encouraged people to run more than two types to stop the specs set, since Latios specs surf is actually usable outside of hitting steels (like against TTar, and hitting for neutral damage). With Latias that wasn't the case, so players commonly just rand defensive calm mind since the specs set didn't really hav enough oomph to break through stall and balanced teams. But with the extra attack Latios can keep the steels that countered Latias at bay!

I have experience the same thing; fewer Magnezones means fewer Steels running around! Also there are plenty of other excellent ways of taking out Scizor that do not involve trapping it ^__^Still haven't seen more than one Magnezone, or Scarfcross for that matter. Scizor is much harder to trap because he's always U-turning and Superpowering.
