I don’t know the Restrictions meta all too well, but from what I’ve seen in replays, bulkier teams are incredibly common, so here’s a mon to throw a wrench into that. Draugelid is a Crawdaunt-inspired breaker, in that it hits ungodly hard before or after an SD and has very few consistent switchins (bulky Polbearab and Modolith), but struggles to switch in itself due to its low speed tier and frailty. Boots are the obvious item and allow it to play the “force a switch to set a Spike” game quite well, but Life Orb and Band are potent as well, allowing for an unboosted 2HKO on even physically defensive Faerenheit and Borassa with Technician Bonemerang and Triple Axel respectively. The final thing this mon has going for it is strong priority, with Tech/Adapt Ice Shard or Shadow Sneak allowing it to retain some usefulness against offensive builds rather than it just beating fat.


Set 3 - Refluse
Stats: 51 / 139 / 66 / 78 / 66 / 110 [BST: 510]
Type:

Abilities: Compound Eyes / Insomnia / Corrosion
Notable Moves: Fell Stinger, Focus Blast, Gunk Shot, Hone Claws, Leech Life, Megahorn, Protect, Spirit Shackle, Sticky Web, Substitute, Taunt, Toxic, Toxic Spikes
Absorb, Acid, Acid Spray, Astonish, Body Slam, Bounce, Bug Bite, Bug Buzz, Clear Smog, Confusion, Cross Poison, Dig, Double-Edge, Dream Eater, Electroweb, Embargo, Fell Stinger, Focus Blast, Fury Cutter, Gastro Acid, Giga Drain, Giga Impact, Gunk Shot, Hex, Hone Claws, Hyper Beam, Infestation, Leech Life, Lunge, Mean Look, Megahorn, Night Shade, Payback, Poison Fang, Poison Jab, Poison Sting, Psychic, Shadow Ball, Skitter Smack, Slash, Sludge Bomb, Spirit Shackle, Spite, Sticky Web, String Shot, Struggle Bug, Swagger, Taunt, Thief, Toxic, Toxic Spikes, Toxic Thread, Venom Drench, Venoshock, Wide Guard, X-Scissor + All Universal TMs and TRs
Refluse is a fairly versatile Bug that can play in one of three ways. The first is as a suicide lead with Sticky Web, playing the Ribombee to Snailord’s Shuckle. The second is as a dedicated Corrosion abuser with Black Sludge and Protect + Sub + Toxic, Salazzle style, which is further aided by Leech Life to keep it healthy or Spirit Shackle to trap mons and force them to take repeated poison damage. This isn’t broken, as most walls in the meta carry either a super-effective move or pivoting, meaning that they won’t be stuck with Refluse long-term if played well. The final and flagship set for Refluse is offensive. Megahorn and Gunk Shot hit really hard, but form a poor STAB combination, and that’s where Spirit Shackle comes into play. Alongside STAB, it makes for perfect coverage against everything but Modolith, and also traps mons to make predictions easier and force status chip. Offensive sets can also carry a very strong tool to cripple switchins in Corrosion Toxic, though if you don’t want to take advantage of it, you can instead opt for Compound Eyes to ensure your moves connect, opening up the fourth moveslot for options like Fell Stinger for setup, Focus Blast as tech for Modolith, or your entry hazard of choice.

Alright, I just came up with some new ideas. Hope you guys like them!
(Also, feel free to yell at me if anything is wrong with my subs.)

- Bulk Up, Cosmic Power, Detect, Calm Mind, Trick
Description: With the equivalent of 170 or 189 base attack (depending on nature), backed up by a decent speed tier, Mentasei can be a true offensive threat. But, don’t think this Pokémon is too powerful, cause trust me, it ain’t. It’s extremely frail, lacks reliable recovery, only can boost it’s Attack by Bulk Up, and is outsped and OHKO’d by some Pokémon like Spiriteal and Crystelf, and is a huge victim to revenge killers.

Set 1
Name: Roughian
Typing: Electric/Fighting
Stats: 62/101/62/62/62/101 (BST 450)
Ability: Gorilla Tactics
Movepool: Volt Switch, Power Whip, Close Combat, Plasma Fists, (movepool very WIP and I will add more later, but this is probably gonna be its main set)
Desc: Basically, GDarm but not broken, with even more frailty, lower power, and an easily blockable pivot move. Power Whip can be substituted for a weaker Grass move if needed, but it makes sense for a monkey.

Set 2 (based on Cawmodore)
Name: Falcopper (Falcon+Copper, idk if I like this name)
Typing: Steel/Flying
Abilities: Big Pecks/Intimidate/Volt Absorb
Stats: 80/90/110/70/50/70 (BST 470)
Movepool: Roost, Defog, Brave Bird, Iron Head, Body Press, Iron Defense, Flash Cannon, Hurricane, Dual Wingbeat, Haze, more to be added but that’s the gist of it

Set 3 coming later
lmk if they’re broken as usual

Set Number: 1 (Stats and Abilities)
Name: Anogua
Typing: Electric / Dragon
Stats: 50 / 45 / 55 / 110 / 120 / 70 | 450 BST
Weight: 37 kg
Abilities: Swift Swim / Solar Power | Electric Surge (HA)
Movepool: *learns universal TMs
Relevant Attacking: Draco Meteor, Dragon Pulse, Thunder, Thunderbolt, Volt Switch, Hurricane, Hydro Pump, Surf, Weather Ball,
Relevant Status: Calm Mind, Thunder Wave,
Other: Outrage, Dragon Claw, Dragon Tail, Scale Shot, Dragon Rush, Breaking Swipe, Dragon Breath, Twister, Discharge, Electro Ball, Parabolic Charge, Shock Wave, Thunder Shock, Wild Charge, Thunder Fang, Air Slash, Air Cutter, Waterfall, Aqua Jet, Aqua Tail, Water Pulse, Brine, Crunch, Brutal Swing, Iron Tail, Dig, Hyper Beam, Slash, Scratch, Eerie Impulse, Charge, Agility, Amnesia, Acid Armor, Hone Claws, Magnet Rise, Rain Dance, Sunny Day,
Description: Rain sweeper with multiple STABs and coverage that are boosted under rain. It is designed to be hard to deal with under Rain, but it has a couple of switch-ins (Sharm and Dirtoad), a couple other defensive checks, and offensive checks in the form of priority and Scarf users. Electric Surge is usable but nothing has Rising Voltage in the tier so it's probably not great. The design is some combination of an iguana and an old-timey battery (like an electrolytic cell you might make in chemistry class).

Set Number: 2 (Type and Abilities of Crucibelle)
Name: Cinnastar
Typing: Rock / Poison
Stats: 110 / 95 / 80 / 95 / 80 / 80 | 540 BST
Weight: 52 kg
Abilities: Regenerator / Mold Breaker | Liquid Ooze (HA)
Movepool: *learns universal TMs
Relevant Attacking: Sludge Bomb, Sludge Wave, Clear Smog, Poison Jab, Power Gem, Stone Edge, Rock Blast, Rock Slide, Earthquake, Earth Power,
Relevant Status: Toxic, Recover, Stealth Rock, Wish, Haze, Corrosive Gas

Description: A Wish passer with a good amount of utility that can deal with some difficult Flying, Fairy, and Fire types, most notably Torgeist. Could make a solid addition to bulkier balance teams. Modolith would make a great teammate, as it appreciates Wish support and the two cover many of each other's weaknesses. It's a starfish based on the mineral Cinnabar, a red gem composed of the elements mercury and sulfur.

Set Number: 3 (Type and Stats)
Name: Rossino (rose + assassino i.e. assassin bug)
Typing: Bug / Grass
Stats: 51 / 139 / 125 / 60 / 70 / 110 | 555 BST
Weight: 21 kg
Abilities: Infiltrator / Chlorophyll | Natural Cure (HA)
Movepool: *learns universal TMs
Relevant Attacking: Leech Life, Petal Blizzard, Superpower, Knock Off
Relevant Status: Swords Dance, Spikes, Leech Seed, Synthesis, Aromatherapy, Magic Coat, Stun Spore
Other: X-Scissor, Skitter Smack, Bug Bite, Bug Buzz, Pollen Puff, Struggle Bug, Solar Blade, Grassy Glide, Seed Bomb, Razor Leaf, Leafage, Solar Beam, Energy Ball, Giga Drain, Grass Knot, Mega Drain, Magical Leaf, Vine Whip, Brick Break, Rock Smash, Throat Chop, Night Slash, Shadow Claw, Aerial Ace, Giga Impact, False Swipe, Slash, Cut, Hone Claws, Laser Focus, Focus Energy, Helping Hand, Grassy Terrain, Safeguard, Sunny Day, Rain Dance
Description: Sort of a Kartana-lite. Its massive offensive stats are balanced by having lackluster physical STABs. It has decent coverage but will have difficulty with many Fire, Fairy, and Poison types. It has multiple options with Swords Dance, Spikes, and Leech Seed in its movepool and Choice item potential. It's a bug with a rose bud as its abdomen and thorny vines for legs. It can open up the rose when using Status and Special attacks.

Set 1
Fakemon Name: Volmodo
Stats: 90/45/110/50/80/65 (450)
Typing: Dragon/Electric
Abilities: Contrary (Electric Surge)
Moves: Draco Meteor, Overheat, Thunderbolt, Thunderwave, Glare, Dragon Pulse, Volt Switch, Corrosion, Toxic, Giga Drain, Sludge Bomb Toxic Thread
Description: Two great abilities as we finally try to cram Electric Terrain into this dang mode. SpAtk of 50 though... ooof. And 65 Speed doesn't help as its not slow enough to abuse being a wall breaker and its STABs have too many resists. Fire coverage is nice, but even then, with a base 60 SpAtk, Faernheit laughs and forces you out with its SE STAB. You can hit it with Thunderbolt after a boost, sure, but its faster. And if you have a choice item, you will be locked into either resisted Overheat (that isn't STAB) or a Draco that does 0)

Quadringo resists your entire package unless you can fit Sludge Bomb in, and I might ax that move but that still makes choice locking extremely risky.

Arbarella is a much faster Ground type type but needs to fear Overheat.


Set 2 (Necturna)
Fakemon Name
: Papoltergyrus
Stats: Unchanged
Typing: Unchanged (Grass/Ghost)
Abilities: Intimidate
Moves: -Loses Sketch but +Sword Dance, Coil, Close Combat
Description: Nocturna is great with an awesome access to ONE Sketch. Its only holdback is its abilities which sucked. Papoltergyrus has the reverse issue. Trading 1 sketch for a few compensatory moves moves but quality abilities. Can this be enough to give it a niche of its own?

It’s strong but slow meaning it’s a bit of a breaker and it’s typing has just enough safe switchins or scare out and smack the incoming monster hard. Still Grass stab is far from ideal as a neutral hit as 7 resistances exist.

I'm unsure. Sketch is not exactly a 'fake' creation so it might be a bit of a slippery slope.
Here to clarify that Sketch would be ignored like the custom elements. This is still a Gen 8 mod, all moves that were dexited in any subs will not be legal even if I'm fine with you having them on the movepool otherwise (like if someone wants Refresh on their Pokemon as a flavor move for any reason it just won't be usable). Since Sketch was cut, the correct implication would probably be to disallow it from copying Gen 8 moves, but I'm not sure if it's even implemented into Showdown like that yet and I'm sure there's some argument for me to treat it differently. I really just would rather avoid all of the complications if possible, so I kept it out of this slate because of how weird of a case it would be with its removal. Sorry about that.
 
Set 1
Fakemon Name: Glambastic ("Glamour" + "Bombastic". Based on a glam rocker. It even has magic spells, like Labyrinth-era David Bowie.)

(Typing meets the restriction)
Abilities: Punk Rock / No Second Ability / Fur Coat
Weight: 24.4 kg

Physical Moves: Knock Off, Psycho Cut, Poison Jab, Cross Poison, Throat Chop, Play Rough, Double Hit, Covet
Special Moves: Boomburst, Eerie Spell, Sludge Wave, Sludge Bomb, Psychic, Psyshock, Overdrive, Strange Steam, Snarl, Dazzling Gleam, Stored Power, Clear Smog, Expanding Force, Hyper Voice, Dark Pulse, Echoed Voice, Disarming Voice, Magical Leaf, Swift, Uproar, Hyper Beam
Status Moves: Recover, Calm Mind, Switcheroo, Agility, Thunder Wave, Encore, Corrosive Gas, Sweet Kiss, Teeter Dance, Magic Coat, Flatter, Sing, Taunt, Toxic, Magic Room, Swords Dance, Metal Sound, Feather Dance, Magic Powder, Baby-Doll Eyes, Swagger, Confide
Universal moves: Yes

Description: This mon brings a lot to the table and can fit on any sort of team. Punk Rock boosts Eerie Spell and Boomburst and makes it a potent breaker, although it’s prediction reliant and really needs to predict opposing Steel types, especially Zoltanka. Agility and CM let it be a setup mon for offensive teams that suffers from a bit of 4MSS and vulnerability to priority. Alternatively it can eschew its offense and run Fur Coat, making it a bulky defensive mon or wincon for balance or stall teams with CM that appreciates the Toxic immunity in order to set up, but struggles with fairly low special bulk before setting up and a few more weaknesses than it would like, as well as generally being walled by Dark-types. It would be fairly intimidating at team preview and a real wild card, but its low stats overall would prevent it from being as consistent in every game.

Universal moves: Yes

Description: A special Ice-type attacker that can provide both offensive and anti-offensive support. Prankster Screens are a valuable tool for offensive teams, and it can keep momentum with U-turn, suicide with Explosion or Steel Beam or simply threaten most Defoggers with its attacks. Court Change is much more unique, being an anti-offensive option that foils the actions of opposing screen setters and provides a unique form of hazard control. Similar options like Haze and Thunder Wave can shut down opposing offensive threats due to Prankster and are easy to slot on an otherwise offensive set. A reasonable alternative is to run Intimidate and U-turn to pose as a sort of offensive pivot. Ice / Steel has some exploitable weaknesses defensively, so running this mon as a full-on defensive pivot is unsavoury, but Intimidate is a reasonable option regardless.

Abilities: Magic Guard / Shell Armor / Cursed Body
Weight: 8.9 kg

Physical Moves: Spirit Shackle, Leech Life, Lunge, Megahorn, Shadow Sneak, Shadow Claw, Body Slam, Skitter Smack, Dual Wingbeat, Bug Bite, Fury Cutter, Double-Edge, Brutal Swing, Night Slash, Metal Claw, Retaliate, Take Down, Payback, Fling, Thief, False Swipe, Giga Impact

Status Moves: Swords Dance, Bulk Up, Roost, Switcheroo, Curse, Spite, Confuse Ray, Hone Claws, Sandstorm, Sunny Day, Toxic, Grudge, Laser Focus, Work Up, Confide, Swagger
Universal moves: Yes

Description: Swords Dance plus priority and a decent STAB combo with priority let it play as a good breaker, and Magic Guard helps it avoid otherwise-inevitable chip damage and enter battle safely. With recovery from Leech Life as well, it can stick around for a while. However, its low Speed, average Attack, and numerous weaknesses mean that it is easier to revenge kill than it may seem. Its lack of any coverage also holds it back against Modolith, Dragraceful, and Rancourgar, all of which resist both its STABs. Perhaps more interesting however, is coupling Spirit Shackle with its imperviousness to residual damage and reliable recovery. This would fit well on balanced or stall teams and would help simplify matchups between opposing balance or stall teams. By trapping something passive with Spirit Shackle, you can proceed to wear it down and remove it from the game through status or simply turning it into setup fodder. Besides that, it would be among the best status absorbers for slower paced teams. This defensive trapping set can be outplayed through pivoting moves like U-turn and Flip Turn, which seem common in Restrictions.

Fakemon Name: Drakelvin (Dragon+Kelvin)
Set Number: 1
Weight: 3,4 kgs
Stats: 73/101/107/137/79/73 (570 BST)
Typing: Ice/Dragon
Abilities: Beast Boost
Physical Moves: Avalanche, Breaking Swipe, Dragon Claw, Dragon Hammer, Dragon Tail, Ice Fang, Ice Shard, Icicle Crash, Icicle Spear, Outrage

Learns Universal TMs
Description: It is said that, when Drakelvin is around, food in the oven will freeze instead of being cooked. This Ice dragon is also perfect counterpart to Faerenheit. Speaking of Faerenheit, it's Drakelvin's best counter along with bulky steel types. It also struggles against high spdef mons like Sharm or AV Dirtoad. Outside of that though, its stabs can 2hko if not 1hko the rest of the meta fairly reliably. While its bulk isn't amazing, it could use it to run a bulky set with Roost and Defog if needed. It can also use this bulk alongside Calm Mind set-up sets to boost up and sweep. A strong overall breaker with some decent utility if it wants to go with that.

Learns universal TMs
Description: This mammoth's tusks are said to have the ability to cure any disease. And while they are able to cure diseases, the only disease they can cure is the common cold. Its high HP stat combined with its decent defenses give it better mixed bulk than toxapex and, with access to Slack Off, Stealth Rock and Aromatherapy as well as Magic Guard, it seems like a perfect defensive pokemon. However, the many weaknesses brought by its Ice and Poison typing leave it vulnerable to Earthquakes or Stone Edges if it isn't careful. It can still pretty effectively wall pokemons that don't have coverage to hit it super effectively and, even if they do, it's not dropping instantly due to its sheer bulk. Very fat defensive mon but with a lot of crippling weaknesses.

Status Moves: Agility, Bulk Up, Calm Mind, Coaching, Thunder Wave
Learns universal TMs
Description: Offensive Magic Guard users are incredibly cool so I made one. Recoiless High Jump Kick and Volt Tackle make it a dangerous yet fast attacker. Its coverage is poor so pokemons that deal with its dual stab well such as Serpaint, Crypterid and Quadringo are able to wall it effectively. Its Volt Switches aren't extremely powerful but allow it to pivot against switch-ins that aren't immune to ground. Thanks to Magic Guard, it can also run a counter-sash set that consumes its Focus Sash and brings down an opponent's physical attacker. However, its low bulk means that you have to be very careful with it since, after any chip, it gets in priority range and could be KOed at any point. It also can't switch-into anything if it isn't holding a Sash. Overall, a powerful and fast attacker but with some serious risks involved.

24 hour warning! I'd sub more mons but this meta doesn't really seem to need anything right now, to me at least. Kinda tough to come up with subs with the way things currently are.

Fakemon Name: Butterflake
Set Number: 2 (Syclar)
Stats: 90/60/65/110/70/117 (512)
*Typing: Bug/Ice
*Abilities: Compound Eyes/Snow Cloak/Ice Body
Movepool: Sticky Web, Taunt, Bug Buzz, Blizzard, Freeze-Dry, Quiver Dance, Surf, Ice Beam, Giga Drain, Energy Ball, Air Slash, Haze, Roost, Defog, Stun Spore, Toxic || Icy Wind, Triple Axel, Lunge, Leech Life, Struggle Bug, Bug Bite, Aurora Veil, Hail, Rain Dance, Pin Missile, Fury Cutter, String Shot, Fell Stinger, Rage Powder, Powder Snow, Avalanche, Ice Shard, Icicle Spear, Icicle Crash, Tailwind, Razor Wind, Air Cutter, Gust, Safeguard, Swagger, Thief, Psych Up, Take Down, Harden, Mega Drain, Water Gun, Water Pulse, Aqua Ring, Infestation, Swift, Tackle, Supersonic, Twister, all universal TMs
Description: No access to Mountaineer is unfortunate but you've still got a pretty powerful mon with good coverage, one of the best boosting moves in the game, and a pretty fast Sticky Web. Blizzard / Bug Buzz / either Surf or Freeze-Dry makes for great coverage, with Surf being for Scalaron and Faerenheit and Freeze-Dry being for Sharm and Dirtoad. You also have some nice Webs lead options, like a faster Taunt and Stun Spore, although it might not be worth dropping any of your three main attacking moves for either of those. No matter what you're not really set out to hit any bulky Steels too hard, which sucks since it means Cyknight gets a pretty easy opportunity to come in on you. Its Speed tier, while great for a Quiver Dance user on paper, is really not ideal for this meta, since the most common Scarf user is looking to be Dragraceful. Priority also doesn't seem too uncommon in this meta between things like Afloof and Centhorn, so you'd have to account for those when building with this Pokemon or using it ingame.

Fakemon Name: Smorke (Smore + Smoke, it's a smores campfire ghost)
Set Number: 3
Stats: 80/120/80/80/80/100 (540)
Typing: Ghost/Fire
*Abilities: Flame Body / Magic Guard
*Movepool: Spirit Shackle, Flare Blitz, Disable, Taunt, Toxic, Wood Hammer, Knock Off, Aromatherapy, Will-o-Wisp, Calm Mind, Shadow Ball, Flamethrower, Fire Blast, Lava Plume, Energy Ball, Night Shade, Trick, Haze, Hex || Dark Pulse, Memento, Grudge, Curse, Sunny Day, Psych Up, Theif, Torment, Trick Room, Payback, Laser Focus, Fire Spin, Imprison, Smog, Smokescreen, Poison Gas, Snarl, all universal TMs
Description: Kind of a last minute sub but I wanted more than five Set 3 mons compared to the 7 and 8 (?) for the other two. This Pokemon is meant to prey on some specific bulkier Pokemon, and although it has trapping, it may be easier said than done due to the amount of Pokemon with pivoting moves. If you want to trap Pokemon that can pivot away from you, though, then running Protect + Disable is at least an option, although you'd likely need to dedicate your entire moveset to running a set like that. You'd need Spirit Shackle, Toxic, Protect, and Disable, and I highly doubt that's the ideal set. If you only run Taunt and Toxic, then you trap Faerenheit + any Borassa that lacks Dark Pulse, though, and you're still a competent Pokemon otherwise as well.

Description: With the equivalent of 170 or 189 base attack (depending on nature), backed up by a decent speed tier, Mentasei can be a true offensive threat. But, don’t think this Pokémon is too powerful, cause trust me, it ain’t. It’s extremely frail, lacks reliable recovery, only can boost it’s Attack by Bulk Up, and is outsped and OHKO’d by some Pokémon like Spiriteal and Crystelf, and is a huge victim to revenge killers.
This Pokemon has way too much coverage for its own good. I don't think it can in only one moveset but this Pokemon can hit the entire metagame super effectively. A lot of balance teams would just have to choose a mon to throw away to this thing if it were to get voted in. I'll probably veto this unless its coverage gets cut down on a good bit, a Pokemon with this kind of breaking power should have at least two or three prominent defensive counters.

Set 2 (based on Cawmodore)
Name: Falcopper (Falcon+Copper, idk if I like this name)
Typing: Steel/Flying
Abilities: Big Pecks/Intimidate/Volt Absorb
Stats: 90/90/110/70/90/70 (BST 520)
Movepool: Roost, Defog, Brave Bird, Iron Head, Body Press, Iron Defense, Flash Cannon, Hurricane, Dual Wingbeat, Swords Dance, Haze, more to be added but that’s the gist of it
This Pokemon seems way too difficult to break. This Pokemon basically needs to be hit with STAB and super effectively in order to get 2HKOd by anything, and Fire and Electric coverage (assuming you don't run Volt Absorb which completely changes what beats and loses to this) isn't even too common in this metagame. There are some exceptions but most either require boosting or are kind of extreme cases, like Specs Afloof Dark Pulse. This is especially worrying since it has access to its own setup. I'd lower this thing's bulk by a good margin, since even if this mon had very low bulk, it'd probably still be decent at its job because I could see its high amount of resistances alongside Volt Absorb and Intimidate giving it enough defensive utility as is. Just make sure you check the sheet and some calcs and make it more widely breakable.

Also minor note but the name of your first sub in its current state could have some inappropriate implications. Gorillamp is a good alternative, but I was actually preparing an electric-type monkey as well with the name Roughian (Ruffian / Rough+Simian) if you would like to use that? It's up to you.

Movepool:
Triple Axel, Ice Shard, Explosion, Fling

Description: Just trying to get more Ice-types in since we have a grand total of 1 atm. Fun idea to abuse Boomburst with Regrigerate. It does have limited coverage and gets walled by most Steels and even Fires like Rancourgar and Faerenheit, and it even gets walled by fellow Ice type Polbearab. 87 speed is fast, but not the fastest and it can get revenge killed by one of the many offensive mons due to its subpar bulk.

I don’t know the Restrictions meta all too well, but from what I’ve seen in replays, bulkier teams are incredibly common, so here’s a mon to throw a wrench into that. Draugelid is a Crawdaunt-inspired breaker, in that it hits ungodly hard before or after an SD and has very few consistent switchins (bulky Polbearab and Modolith), but struggles to switch in itself due to its low speed tier and frailty. Boots are the obvious item and allow it to play the “force a switch to set a Spike” game quite well, but Life Orb and Band are potent as well, allowing for an unboosted 2HKO on even physically defensive Faerenheit and Borassa with Technician Bonemerang and Triple Axel respectively. The final thing this mon has going for it is strong priority, with Tech/Adapt Ice Shard or Shadow Sneak allowing it to retain some usefulness against offensive builds rather than it just beating fat.

Description: Rain sweeper with multiple STABs and coverage that are boosted under rain. It is designed to be hard to deal with under Rain, but it has a couple of switch-ins (Sharm and Dirtoad), a couple other defensive checks, and offensive checks in the form of priority and Scarf users. Electric Surge is usable but nothing has Rising Voltage in the tier so it's probably not great. The design is some combination of an iguana and an old-timey battery (like an electrolytic cell you might make in chemistry class).

Typing: Dragon/Electric
Abilities: Contrary (Electric Surge)
Moves: Draco Meteor, Overheat, Thunderbolt, Thunderwave, Glare, Dragon Pulse, Volt Switch, Corrosion, Toxic, Giga Drain, Sludge Bomb Toxic Thread
Description: Two great abilities as we finally try to cram Electric Terrain into this dang mode. SpAtk of 50 though... ooof. And 65 Speed doesn't help as its not slow enough to abuse being a wall breaker and its STABs have too many resists. Fire coverage is nice, but even then, with a base 60 SpAtk, Faernheit laughs and forces you out with its SE STAB. You can hit it with Thunderbolt after a boost, sure, but its faster. And if you have a choice item, you will be locked into either resisted Overheat (that isn't STAB) or a Draco that does 0)

Quadringo resists your entire package unless you can fit Sludge Bomb in, and I might ax that move but that still makes choice locking extremely risky.

Arbarella is a much faster Ground type type but needs to fear Overheat.

Universal moves: Yes

Description: This mon brings a lot to the table and can fit on any sort of team. Punk Rock boosts Eerie Spell and Boomburst and makes it a potent breaker, although it’s prediction reliant and really needs to predict opposing Steel types, especially Zoltanka. Agility and CM let it be a setup mon for offensive teams that suffers from a bit of 4MSS and vulnerability to priority. Alternatively it can eschew its offense and run Fur Coat, making it a bulky defensive mon or wincon for balance or stall teams with CM that appreciates the Toxic immunity in order to set up, but struggles with fairly low special bulk before setting up and a few more weaknesses than it would like, as well as generally being walled by Dark-types. It would be fairly intimidating at team preview and a real wild card, but its low stats overall would prevent it from being as consistent in every game.

Description: It is said that, when Drakelvin is around, food in the oven will freeze instead of being cooked. This Ice dragon is also perfect counterpart to Faerenheit. Speaking of Faerenheit, it's Drakelvin's best counter along with bulky steel types. It also struggles against high spdef mons like Sharm or AV Dirtoad. Outside of that though, its stabs can 2hko if not 1hko the rest of the meta fairly reliably. While its bulk isn't amazing, it could use it to run a bulky set with Roost and Defog if needed. It can also use this bulk alongside Calm Mind set-up sets to boost up and sweep. A strong overall breaker with some decent utility if it wants to go with that.

Description: A Wish passer with a good amount of utility that can deal with some difficult Flying, Fairy, and Fire types, most notably Torgeist. Could make a solid addition to bulkier balance teams. Modolith would make a great teammate, as it appreciates Wish support and the two cover many of each other's weaknesses. It's a starfish based on the mineral Cinnabar, a red gem composed of the elements mercury and sulfur.

Description: Nocturna is great with an awesome access to ONE Sketch. Its only holdback is its abilities which sucked. Papoltergyrus has the reverse issue. Trading 1 sketch for a few compensatory moves moves but quality abilities. Can this be enough to give it a niche of its own?

It’s strong but slow meaning it’s a bit of a breaker and it’s typing has just enough safe switchins or scare out and smack the incoming monster hard. Still Grass stab is far from ideal as a neutral hit as 7 resistances exist.

Universal moves: Yes

Description: A special Ice-type attacker that can provide both offensive and anti-offensive support. Prankster Screens are a valuable tool for offensive teams, and it can keep momentum with U-turn, suicide with Explosion or Steel Beam or simply threaten most Defoggers with its attacks. Court Change is much more unique, being an anti-offensive option that foils the actions of opposing screen setters and provides a unique form of hazard control. Similar options like Haze and Thunder Wave can shut down opposing offensive threats due to Prankster and are easy to slot on an otherwise offensive set. A reasonable alternative is to run Intimidate and U-turn to pose as a sort of offensive pivot. Ice / Steel has some exploitable weaknesses defensively, so running this mon as a full-on defensive pivot is unsavoury, but Intimidate is a reasonable option regardless.

Description: This mammoth's tusks are said to have the ability to cure any disease. And while they are able to cure diseases, the only disease they can cure is the common cold. Its high HP stat combined with its decent defenses give it better mixed bulk than toxapex and, with access to Slack Off, Stealth Rock and Aromatherapy as well as Magic Guard, it seems like a perfect defensive pokemon. However, the many weaknesses brought by its Ice and Poison typing leave it vulnerable to Earthquakes or Stone Edges if it isn't careful. It can still pretty effectively wall pokemons that don't have coverage to hit it super effectively and, even if they do, it's not dropping instantly due to its sheer bulk. Very fat defensive mon but with a lot of crippling weaknesses.

Description: No access to Mountaineer is unfortunate but you've still got a pretty powerful mon with good coverage, one of the best boosting moves in the game, and a pretty fast Sticky Web. Blizzard / Bug Buzz / either Surf or Freeze-Dry makes for great coverage, with Surf being for Scalaron and Faerenheit and Freeze-Dry being for Sharm and Dirtoad. You also have some nice Webs lead options, like a faster Taunt and Stun Spore, although it might not be worth dropping any of your three main attacking moves for either of those. No matter what you're not really set out to hit any bulky Steels too hard, which sucks since it means Cyknight gets a pretty easy opportunity to come in on you. Its Speed tier, while great for a Quiver Dance user on paper, is really not ideal for this meta, since the most common Scarf user is looking to be Dragraceful. Priority also doesn't seem too uncommon in this meta between things like Afloof and Centhorn, so you'd have to account for those when building with this Pokemon or using it ingame.

Description: It's based of a seal or sealion, your choice. 139 Atk and 110 Spe is already super strong, so I'm limiting the movepool just so it doesn't 6-0 on preview. Once again, Steels are the best counter, with Modolith being one of the best switch-ins atm. It does have pretty poor bulk, so revenge killing with something faster is always an option, although it does have priority of its own. It also doesn't have much for a well-played Coracrab.

Refluse is a fairly versatile Bug that can play in one of three ways. The first is as a suicide lead with Sticky Web, playing the Ribombee to Snailord’s Shuckle. The second is as a dedicated Corrosion abuser with Black Sludge and Protect + Sub + Toxic, Salazzle style, which is further aided by Leech Life to keep it healthy or Spirit Shackle to trap mons and force them to take repeated poison damage. This isn’t broken, as most walls in the meta carry either a super-effective move or pivoting, meaning that they won’t be stuck with Refluse long-term if played well. The final and flagship set for Refluse is offensive. Megahorn and Gunk Shot hit really hard, but form a poor STAB combination, and that’s where Spirit Shackle comes into play. Alongside STAB, it makes for perfect coverage against everything but Modolith, and also traps mons to make predictions easier and force status chip. Offensive sets can also carry a very strong tool to cripple switchins in Corrosion Toxic, though if you don’t want to take advantage of it, you can instead opt for Compound Eyes to ensure your moves connect, opening up the fourth moveslot for options like Fell Stinger for setup, Focus Blast as tech for Modolith, or your entry hazard of choice.

Description: Sort of a Kartana-lite. Its massive offensive stats are balanced by having lackluster physical STABs. It has decent coverage but will have difficulty with many Fire, Fairy, and Poison types. It has multiple options with Swords Dance, Spikes, and Leech Seed in its movepool and Choice item potential. It's a bug with a rose bud as its abdomen and thorny vines for legs. It can open up the rose when using Status and Special attacks.

Universal moves: Yes

Description: Swords Dance plus priority and a decent STAB combo with priority let it play as a good breaker, and Magic Guard helps it avoid otherwise-inevitable chip damage and enter battle safely. With recovery from Leech Life as well, it can stick around for a while. However, its low Speed, average Attack, and numerous weaknesses mean that it is easier to revenge kill than it may seem. Its lack of any coverage also holds it back against Modolith, Dragraceful, and Rancourgar, all of which resist both its STABs. Perhaps more interesting however, is coupling Spirit Shackle with its imperviousness to residual damage and reliable recovery. This would fit well on balanced or stall teams and would help simplify matchups between opposing balance or stall teams. By trapping something passive with Spirit Shackle, you can proceed to wear it down and remove it from the game through status or simply turning it into setup fodder. Besides that, it would be among the best status absorbers for slower paced teams. This defensive trapping set can be outplayed through pivoting moves like U-turn and Flip Turn, which seem common in Restrictions.

Description: Offensive Magic Guard users are incredibly cool so I made one. Recoiless High Jump Kick and Volt Tackle make it a dangerous yet fast attacker. Its coverage is poor so pokemons that deal with its dual stab well such as Serpaint, Crypterid and Quadringo are able to wall it effectively. Its Volt Switches aren't extremely powerful but allow it to pivot against switch-ins that aren't immune to ground. Thanks to Magic Guard, it can also run a counter-sash set that consumes its Focus Sash and brings down an opponent's physical attacker. However, its low bulk means that you have to be very careful with it since, after any chip, it gets in priority range and could be KOed at any point. It also can't switch-into anything if it isn't holding a Sash. Overall, a powerful and fast attacker but with some serious risks involved.
Fakemon Name: Smorke (Smore + Smoke, it's a smores campfire ghost)

Description: Kind of a last minute sub but I wanted more than five Set 3 mons compared to the 7 and 8 (?) for the other two. This Pokemon is meant to prey on some specific bulkier Pokemon, and although it has trapping, it may be easier said than done due to the amount of Pokemon with pivoting moves. If you want to trap Pokemon that can pivot away from you, though, then running Protect + Disable is at least an option, although you'd likely need to dedicate your entire moveset to running a set like that. You'd need Spirit Shackle, Toxic, Protect, and Disable, and I highly doubt that's the ideal set. If you only run Taunt and Toxic, then you trap Faerenheit + any Borassa that lacks Dark Pulse, though, and you're still a competent Pokemon otherwise as well.

is a Community Contributoris a Tiering Contributor
UUPL Champion
Set 1: Tapler's Draugelid, readytolose's Glambastic, Mossy Sandwich' Drakelvin
Set 2: readytolose's Zamblizzard, DuoM2's Butterflake, BitBitio's Falcopper
Set 3: Tapler's Refluse, readytolose's Atlasoul, Scoopapa's Rossino


I also made a personal VR that I wanted to share. Keep in mind that most pokemons there are viable, some are just easier to use than others. Also this is just my opinion. Wall of text incoming.
S tier: These pokemons define the meta. Players should consider adding them to every team they build and should prepare to deal with them on every team. These pokemons do what they want to do extremely well and are very consistent.

(1)Faerenheit
(2)Teslaple (Could drop to A because of Arbrella)

A tier: These pokemons are an important part of the metagame. They are worth considering on many teams and teams should be able to take them on. These pokemons are good and consistent at what they're trying to do.

(3)Dragraceful
(4)Dirtoad
(5)Regolite
(6)Torgeist
(7)Cyknight
(8)Borassa
(9)Afloof
(10)Modolith
(11)Tantrary
(12)Sharm
(13)Scalaron
(14)Zoltanka
(15)Crystelf
(16)Aerock
(17)Flydra
(18)Kapagon
(19)Donzyxote
(20)Centhorn
(21)Nunopod
(22)Vulcaraptor

B tier: These pokemons are rather niche but still viable. They don't fit on many teams and aren't the biggest threats around but they should still be considered. These pokemons aren't bad but lack consistency.

(23)Abysseil
(24)Crypterid
(25)Parakinesis
(26)Polbearab
(27)Coracrab
(28)Nimbusteed
(29)Serpaint

C tier: These pokemons are mostly unviable. They may still be able to work on a few teams, but they will usually fall short. Players don't need to consider these pokemons when building their teams. These pokemons aren't especially good and they're inconsistent.

(30)Scimicobra (Might need a buff)


Need more testing:
Folliclawe (Predicted tier: B)
Spiriteal (Predicted tier: B)
Quadringo (Predicted tier: ?)
Rancourgar (Predicted tier: B/C)
Snailord (Predicted tier: ?)
Arbrella (Predicted tier: ?)

Alright, voting is done!

For both sets 1 and 3, Tapler won with Draugelid and Refluse respectively...


Set 1 - Draugelid
Stats: 75 / 90 / 50 / 55 / 75 / 65 [BST: 410]
Type:

Abilities: Adaptability / Slush Rush / Technician
Notable Moves: Bonemerang, Ice Shard, Icicle Crash, Poltergeist, Rock Tomb, Shadow Bone, Shadow Sneak, Spikes, Switcheroo, Swords Dance, Triple Axel
Ally Switch, Astonish, Bite, Blizzard, Body Slam, Bonemerang, Bone Rush, Brick Break, Confide, Confuse Ray, Copycat, Curse, Dark Pulse, Destiny Bond, Dig, Disable, Dream Eater, Echoed Voice, Endeavor, False Swipe, Fling, Freeze-Dry, Frost Breath, Giga Impact, Growl, Grudge, Hail, Haze, Hex, Hone Claws, Hyper Beam, Ice Beam, Ice Fang, Ice Shard, Icicle Crash, Icy Wind, Lash Out, Mist, Night Shade, Night Slash, Perish Song, Phantom Force, Poltergeist, Psych Up, Rain Dance, Rock Slide, Rock Tomb, Scary Face, Scratch, Screech, Shadow Ball, Shadow Bone, Shadow Claw, Shadow Sneak, Sheer Cold, Slash, Snarl, Spikes, Spite, Switcheroo, Swords Dance, Thief, Thrash, Throat Chop, Torment, Triple Axel, Uproar, Weather Ball + All Universal TMs and TRs, except Rest
I don’t know the Restrictions meta all too well, but from what I’ve seen in replays, bulkier teams are incredibly common, so here’s a mon to throw a wrench into that. Draugelid is a Crawdaunt-inspired breaker, in that it hits ungodly hard before or after an SD and has very few consistent switchins (bulky Polbearab and Modolith), but struggles to switch in itself due to its low speed tier and frailty. Boots are the obvious item and allow it to play the “force a switch to set a Spike” game quite well, but Life Orb and Band are potent as well, allowing for an unboosted 2HKO on even physically defensive Faerenheit and Borassa with Technician Bonemerang and Triple Axel respectively. The final thing this mon has going for it is strong priority, with Tech/Adapt Ice Shard or Shadow Sneak allowing it to retain some usefulness against offensive builds rather than it just beating fat.


Set 3 - Refluse
Stats: 51 / 139 / 66 / 78 / 66 / 110 [BST: 510]
Type:

Abilities: Compound Eyes / Insomnia / Corrosion
Notable Moves: Fell Stinger, Focus Blast, Gunk Shot, Hone Claws, Leech Life, Megahorn, Protect, Spirit Shackle, Sticky Web, Substitute, Taunt, Toxic, Toxic Spikes
Absorb, Acid, Acid Spray, Astonish, Body Slam, Bounce, Bug Bite, Bug Buzz, Clear Smog, Confusion, Cross Poison, Dig, Double-Edge, Dream Eater, Electroweb, Embargo, Fell Stinger, Focus Blast, Fury Cutter, Gastro Acid, Giga Drain, Giga Impact, Gunk Shot, Hex, Hone Claws, Hyper Beam, Infestation, Leech Life, Lunge, Mean Look, Megahorn, Night Shade, Payback, Poison Fang, Poison Jab, Poison Sting, Psychic, Shadow Ball, Skitter Smack, Slash, Sludge Bomb, Spirit Shackle, Spite, Sticky Web, String Shot, Struggle Bug, Swagger, Taunt, Thief, Toxic, Toxic Spikes, Toxic Thread, Venom Drench, Venoshock, Wide Guard, X-Scissor + All Universal TMs and TRs
Refluse is a fairly versatile Bug that can play in one of three ways. The first is as a suicide lead with Sticky Web, playing the Ribombee to Snailord’s Shuckle. The second is as a dedicated Corrosion abuser with Black Sludge and Protect + Sub + Toxic, Salazzle style, which is further aided by Leech Life to keep it healthy or Spirit Shackle to trap mons and force them to take repeated poison damage. This isn’t broken, as most walls in the meta carry either a super-effective move or pivoting, meaning that they won’t be stuck with Refluse long-term if played well. The final and flagship set for Refluse is offensive. Megahorn and Gunk Shot hit really hard, but form a poor STAB combination, and that’s where Spirit Shackle comes into play. Alongside STAB, it makes for perfect coverage against everything but Modolith, and also traps mons to make predictions easier and force status chip. Offensive sets can also carry a very strong tool to cripple switchins in Corrosion Toxic, though if you don’t want to take advantage of it, you can instead opt for Compound Eyes to ensure your moves connect, opening up the fourth moveslot for options like Fell Stinger for setup, Focus Blast as tech for Modolith, or your entry hazard of choice.
And for set 2, Scoopapa won with Cinnastar...

Set Number: 2 (Type and Abilities of Crucibelle)
Name: Cinnastar
Typing: Rock / Poison
Stats: 110 / 95 / 80 / 95 / 80 / 80 | 540 BST
Weight: 52 kg
Abilities: Regenerator / Mold Breaker | Liquid Ooze (HA)
Movepool: *learns universal TMs
Relevant Attacking: Sludge Bomb, Sludge Wave, Clear Smog, Poison Jab, Power Gem, Stone Edge, Rock Blast, Rock Slide, Earthquake, Earth Power,
Relevant Status: Toxic, Recover, Stealth Rock, Wish, Haze, Corrosive Gas
Other: Sludge, Acid, Acid Spray, Venoshock, Rock Tomb, Rollout, Rock Throw, Meteor Beam, Ancient Power, Sand Tomb, Magnitude, Mud Slap, Dazzling Gleam, Draining Kiss, Psychic, Psycho Cut, Flash Cannon, Smart Strike, Double Edge, Body Slam, Take Down, Explosion, Light Screen, Flash, After You, Ally Switch, Guard Split, Guard Swap, Skill Swap, Power Trick, Harden, Iron Defense, Acid Armor, Safeguard, Wonder Room, Sandstorm, Rain Dance, Sunny Day,
Description: A Wish passer with a good amount of utility that can deal with some difficult Flying, Fairy, and Fire types, most notably Torgeist. Could make a solid addition to bulkier balance teams. Modolith would make a great teammate, as it appreciates Wish support and the two cover many of each other's weaknesses. It's a starfish based on the mineral Cinnabar, a red gem composed of the elements mercury and sulfur.
As for the next slate...

Hey, I'm new to this thread. This seems really cool, so I'll try to make something interesting here. If I get anything wrong, let me know.

Set number: 2
Number of restrictions: 2
Name: Tectonada (Base Pokemon is Nincada)
Typing: Bug/Ground
Stats: 81/115/90/50/80/85 (501 BST)
Weight: 77.1 kg
Abilities: Compound Eyes/-/Run Away (HA)
All universal TMs/TRs, Nincada's move-pool, and the following:
Physical: Megahorn, Earthquake, Stone Edge, Rock Slide, Rock Tomb, Bulldoze, Shadow Claw
Special: Earth Power, Scorching Sands
Status: Spikes, Taunt
Description: This was the logical conclusion of the idea, "What if Nincada's evolution stayed Bug/Ground?" From a competitive standpoint, Tectonada plays quite similarly to Heracross, but trades Heracross' access to immediate wallbreaking/snowballing capability for being a much more reliable attacker thanks to Compound Eyes. It's not strictly limited to attacking roles, either: Spikes, Taunt, and its access to Final Gambit from Nincada give it potential as a lead. Final Gambit also gives it a way to break through Modolith, which would otherwise wall you easily.

More coming later.
 

Ema Skye

Fakemon Name: Neebula (knee + nebula)
Set Number: 1
Weight: 900 kg
Stats: 85/85/90/90/95/70 [515 BST]
Typing: Fighting/Steel
Abilities: Sheer Force / Long Reach
Movepool: Thunderous Kick, Universal TMs, Triple Axel, Meteor Mash, Trop Kick, Low Kick, Triple Kick, Low Sweep, Bullet Punch, Bulk Up, Blaze Kick, Poison Jab, Zen Headbutt, Iron Head, Foul Play, Grass Knot, Aura Sphere, Focus Blast, Calm Mind, Cosmic Power, Moonlight, Doom Desire, Flash Cannon, Mirror Shot
Description: Thanks to Sheer Force, this Pokemon does not need to sacrifice its bulk with other physical Fighting options, as Thunderous Kick nearly matches Close Combat with the boost. It also gets some additional coverage options that all make use of Sheer Force, such as Blaze Kick, Zen Headbutt and Meteor Mash. If you want the added effects, Long Reach allows you to avoid contact effects which is useful as all of these moves make contact.
 
Set number: 2
Number of restrictions: 4
Name: Harenox-M (Base Pokemon is Nidoran-M)
Typing: Poison
Stats: 92/114/80/80/80/100
Weight: 77.1 kg
Abilities: Poison Point|Rivalry|Hustle
Movepool: Same as Nidoran-M's
Description: Behold this monotype marvel. It goes decently fast and hits hard thanks to hustle. However it is held back by only being a poison type and thus its STAB isn't the best offensively speaking.

Fakemon Name: Pixslob
Set Number: 1
Weight: 12kg
Stats: 92/80/82/100/86/110 (550)
Typing: Poison/Fairy
Abilities
: Thick Fat (Bulletproof)
Movepool: Mystical Fire, Moonblast, Sludge Bomb, Poison Fang, Toxic, Toxic Spikes, Parting Shot, Water Pulse, Dark Pulse, Draining Kiss, Mud Shot, Calm Mind, Nasty Plot, Snarl, Nuzzle
Description: A makeshift defensive mon, this fat, yet fast princess of trash has two great abilities to help it get in and do business. If it's setting up toxic and Nuzzle Paralysis, it has great tools for that. If going attacker, it has tools for that too. Mystical Fire is almost mandatory for your STAB combo to get around Steel types, but any Heatrans in the future will hate Mud Shot.


Fakemon Name: Rodenegra
Set number: 2
Typing: Same as Ratatta-A
Stats: 60/107/70/50/70/129 (Ratatta's x2 but -15 speed, -10 atk)
Weight: 22.2kg
Abilities: Thick Fat/Dry Skin (Sap Sipper)
Movepool: Same as Ratatta-A
Description: So all I changed here was abilities. All of the abilities are more defensive about taking less damage from types. Your best bet is to switch in on a grass move for the boost and then try and do a little breaking. Problem is, 107 with +1 is nice but power alone isn’t everything. Sword Dancers with higher base attacks can be stopped. And with a STAB combo that partially can’t even score Super Effective hits you are a bit more limited in breaking potential. Using double edge with 60 HP also puts you on a timer if you want to go that route. Most of your coverage is inaccurate but it is a fast pivot with a decently hard hit but it’s far from unbeatable. A certain 152 defense steel type beastie can come in and vaporize with CC. Others if they can survive a few hits should have no trouble killing this thing especially if it relies of Double Edge to do damage to begin with. By compare Polbearab, for example, has less power but despite the ice typing, or perhaps because of it, has great Super Effective coverage and can survive longer to do more damage especially with poison heal even if its not as fast and can’t use a boosting item therefore.
