OM Analyses Reservation Thread [READ THE ANNOUNCEMENT]

[Hera]

In terms of how they're used, tech Weavile are different enough (esp. in terms of types of team[mates]) to warrant being separate sets. As such, they shouldn't be slashed together. Also, Magic Guard should have coverage moves (Low Kick, Poison Jab) slashed with ice shard or taxel.

The sets have been changed to reflect these notes.

I feel the OM ZU Analysis sheet may also want to be updated. A lot of Pokemon have been ranked and unranked following monthly VR shifts. NFE Pokemon like Kadabra, Pikachu, and G-Mime are still mentioned in the sheet and some NFE WIP analyses.

Actually a lot of potential slashes on this one, I don't really know what is worth mentioning and what is not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Potentially worth mentioning : Tinted Lens (bold in the VR)
Potentially not worth mentioning : No Guard (too fishy ?), Magic Guard (not bold in the VR)

Also since it would probably be a quite long analysis, is it a problem if I took more than 3 days to make it ? (if I'm allowed to make it ofc)

No Guard can probably be an "other option" for SFLO since the main things there are damage amp and para potential. Otherwise, I'd say everything else looks about right​

Those Koko sets are a bit too mashed together. I would split them to look like this:

Regardless, this looks like 3 Koko sets + 2 Zapdos which comes out to 5 (although Zapdos EVs are arguably arbitrary enough that you can probably just default to offensive and mention that defensive EV spreads can be used for more bulk vs things like heatran and volcarona), so not sure if you're actually allowed to claim them all or not
