Alright, Flazam makes it in. Now for something a bit different...

The Second Chance Slate (first edition)

This is going to be very different from how prior slates worked. I'm going to be making this meta playable pretty soon, and I felt like giving people the opportunity to close whatever gaps they feel the meta may have or just bring back a sub they feel didn't get treated fairly when it was originally in its slate. For this, you can submit any Pokemon on this spreadsheet that's been rejected, anything legal in Gen 8's meta as seen here, or if you really wanna sift through some garbage, anything rejected from Gen 8 Roulettemons. You cannot make ANY changes to the Pokemon you submit, it must be exactly as it appears on its spreadsheet. Just for example, here's something I'm subbing...

Name: Giranium
Type: Steel/Rock
Abilities: Minus / --- | Filter
Stats: 66/40/146/161/148/39
Movepool: Aromatherapy, Bug Buzz, Crabhammer, Defog, Energy Ball, Flare Blitz, Flash Cannon, Freeze-Dry, Iron Head, Leaf Blade, Moonlight, Power Gem, Psycho Cut, Pursuit, Relic Song, Seismic Toss, Stone Edge, Stun Spore, Thunderbolt, Water Spout | Aromatic Mist, Bestow, Flash, Flatter, Freeze Shock, Fury Swipes, Hail, Hold Hands, Infestation, Instruct, Meditate, Metal Sound, Pluck, Power Split, Quick Guard, Simple Beam, Sing, Smokescreen, Speed Swap, Storm Throw | Attract, Captivate, Confide, Endure, Facade, Frustration, Hidden Power, Protect, Natural Gift, Rest, Return, Round, Secret Power, Sleep Talk, Substitute, Toxic
Description: Giranium's from the Gen 8 meta and was in my opinion a pretty healthy presence there. Despite the high Sp. Atk its offensive presence wasn't amazing, so instead people ran it for a more defensive role. It'd be nice to have a second fat Steel in case teams don't want Radimite, it'd be nice to have a second form of hazard removal in case teams don't want Slowghast, and it'd be nice to have something fat spreading Toxic around everywhere. Filter also isn't as crazy here as it may seem since two of this thing's three weaknesses are 4x.

Name: Bellena
Type: Fairy/Dragon
Abilities: Dark Aura / Weak Armor | Overcoat
Stats: 96/147/101/90/112/54
Movepool: Bolt Beak, Bulk Up, Destiny Bond, Diamond Storm, Dragon Claw, Dragon Pulse, Energy Ball, Foul Play, Hone Claws, Magma Storm, Moonblast, Night Shade, Play Rough, Psychic Fangs, Roost, Searing Shot, Shadow Bone, Spirit Shackle, Stealth Rock, Thunder Fang | Charge, Double Kick, Dragon Rush, Electric Terrain, Flame Wheel, Fury Swipes, Ice Ball, Iron Tail, Low Sweep, Metal Burst, Metronome, Muddy Water, Parabolic Charge, Powder, Shell Trap, Sludge, Spit Up, Submission, Swift, Throat Chop | Attract, Captivate, Confide, Endure, Facade, Frustration, Hidden Power, Protect, Natural Gift, Rest, Return, Round, Secret Power, Sleep Talk, Substitute, Toxic
Description: Subbing this in Scoop's place. Last gen this functioned as either a fat Stealth Rock user or a breaker with Bulk Up, and I'm sure in this gen it would do similar.

I'm going to give a bit longer for people to submit stuff, probably around 5 days. Take your time either way, I'll give a 48 hour warning in advance. You're able to submit up to 5 Pokemon from any of the places mentioned.

Description:
 
Name: Fierutor (Gen 8 Roulettemons Ubers)
Type:

Abilities: Liquid Voice / Poison Heal / Protean (HA)
Stats: 119 / 139 / 142 / 113 / 49 / 38
Movepool: Drill Peck, Aeroblast, Blaze Kick, Flametheower, Ice Beam, Tail Slap, Power Whip, Volt Tackle, Night Shade, Sacred Fire, Lunar Dance, Shore Up, Steam Eruption, Ice Fang, Will-o-Wisp, Defend Order, Icicle Crash, Cross Chop, Fire Blast, Fiery Dance
(Unviable Moves: Misty Terrain, Scary Face, Uproar, Prismatic Laser, Rollout, Assist, Charge Beam, Flail, Absorb, Tearful Look, Strength, Water Gun, Magnitude, Acid Armor, Smelling Salts, Double Hit, Pay Day, Night Daze, Smart Strike, Trop Kick)
(Universal Moves: Attract, Captivate, Confide, Endure, Facade, Frustration, Hidden Power, Protect, Natural Gift, Rest, Return, Round, Secret Power, Sleep Talk, Substitute, Tera Blast)
Description: In the current meta, Fierutor could be a pretty monstrous Physical Tank. Thanks to its 119/142 physical bulk and 139 Attack, as well as tools like Sacred Fire, Shore Up, Poison Heal, and amazing coverage, this can stay on the field for pretty long against anything that it can wall and can dish out some HUGE damage as well. However, this does have many clear weaknesses, such as being REALLY slow alongside its 49 SpD, and even though it has the coverage to do a lot of damage, it is too slow to really hit anything it wants to such as Vaporwave and other bulky Pokemon, including a 4x weakness to Stealth Rock that makes Poison Heal much less of a positive. However, it can still use Protean to its advantage as a slow, but REALLY powerful physical tank. Also safe to note that this adds some decent roles to our current metagame as a Fire-type Physical Tank and another bulky Flying-type if you don't want to use Spiritpit.
 
Name: Pengite
Type: Ice
Abilities: Telepathy/Snow Warning/Tinted Lens
Stats: 112/139/80/63/144/62
Movepool: Icicle Crash, Ice Beam, Fusion Bolt, Perish Song, Spiky Shield, Quick Attack, Clanging Scales, Wood Hammer, Counter, Hone Claws, Strength Sap, Liquidation, Revelation Dance, Sticky Web, Clear Smog, Shadow Claw, Aura Sphere, Light Screen, Seismic Toss, Power-Up Punch | Lock-On, Wrap, Mystical Fire, Frost Breath, Belch, Cross Poison, Rock Smash, Snatch, Instruct, Bide, Rock Climb, Dream Eater, Rototiller, Bubble Beam, Psychic Terrain, Smack Down, Octazooka, Snap Trap, Conversion, Dizzy Punch
Description: An Ice type with Snow Warning, and due to the weather it calls now being Snow, Pengite becomes a solid mixed wall inside of this weather. What's more, it has Strength Sap, Clear Smog, Sticky Web, and Light Screen, helping it sustain itself and support its teammates. Perish Song can also be applied to force switches. You can alternatively utilize Hone Claws to hit opponents with Icicle Crash and Fusion Bolt while sustaining with Strength Sap. Your defensive typing certainly isn't phenomenal, but I would argue it makes for an interesting Ice type that's worth considering.

Abilities: Mirror Armor/Pastel Veil/Victory Star(HA)
Stats: 78/108/127/103/151/33
Movepool:
Anchor Shot, Dragon Claw, Dragon Hammer, Dragon Pulse, Dragon Tail, Earthquake, Ice Shard, Low Kick, Milk Drink, Nasty Plot, Outrage, Psywave, Scald, Shadow Ball, Shadow Bone, Sludge Wave, Thousand Arrows, Water Shuriken, Wild Charge, Zing Zap | Ally Switch, Ancient Power, Fairy Lock, Focus Energy, Incinerate, Jaw Lock, Lovely Kiss, Metal Claw, Noble Roar, Poison Powder, Poison Sting, Power Split, Prismatic Laser, Sand Attack, Smog, Speed Swap, Teatime, Triple Kick, Water Pledge, Wrap | Attract, Captivate, Confide, Endure, Facade, Frustration, Hidden Power, Protect, Natural Gift, Rest, Return, Round, Secret Power, Sleep Talk, Substitute, Tera Blast
Description: This Pokemon could be very powerful in this meta. Giratina's defensive typing, good Defense and great Sp.Def, decent set-up offense in Nasty Plot, recovery, phazing with Dragon Tail, trapping with Anchor Shot and Jaw Lock, decent STAB options in Shadow Ball, Shadow Bone, Dragon Hammer, and coverage like Scald, Thousand Arrows, and Zing Zap. It even has Speed Swap to swap it's horrible speed with a faster opponent! Skeleray is held back by it's mediocre abilitypool and HP stat, but that can be worked around.

Universal- Endure, Protect, Rest, Sleep Talk, Substitute, Tera Blast
Description: Stunecko was the closest pokemon so far to not make it in (missed it by 1 vote), so I think a second look is justified. Very well-rounded stats, which is uncommon for Roulettemons. Flash Fire provides an immunity to the powerful Fire type attackers (except Vibraash has Ground STAB, so look out). Would most likely run dual STABs, Lumina Crash, and Snipe Shot on a choiced set. Might be a bit underpowered, but worth a shot.

more to come (maybe)

After a bit more delay (sorry lmao), the winners are as follows - Giranium, Bellena, Fierutor, Pengite, and Stunecko! Yes, somehow all of them had 50% or more Yes votes when ignoring Abstains. Makes me wonder if something about the system should change a bit. Either way, they'll be added to the spreadsheet shortly!


Next slate will be going up tomorrow, and the mod will hopefully be coded soon.

4/5 of these have Fishious Rend/Bolt Beak, truly one of the slates of all time

Eleluster: Sharpness Air Slash would been cool if it had a better SpAtk stat. 134 Spe with Bolt Beak is likely too much considering only 5 other things outspeed it, with coverage for Electrics/Grasses that resist.

Jellyale: It's bulk is probably okay, and Flame Body is cool. Atk stat isn't good enough to abuse Fishious Rend. Main problem with it is that it has 142 Spe and Spore.

Dinoolotl: Decently bulky with good coverage options on both sides of the spectrum, but it is rather slow with no way of boosting speed. Kind of hard to take advantage of Soul Heart, Coil sets would probably work better. Kind of an okay mon.

Shaingo: This thing is bulky. I like it. Could combo T-Wave + Bolt Beak, but it's still rather slow. Wicked Blow provides good damage, Court Change for hazard control, Refresh for itself. No real recovery options, but that would probably make it broken given its bulk.

Teleyle: So does Parental Bond Population Bomb hit 20 times? Also has Fishious Rend with okay speed.
 
Eleluster: Epic Sharpness Air Slash, but really, this thing presses Bolt Beak and no other attacks of note. I guess Sharpness Air Slash can hits Grasses? It does get some utility options in Trick, Rocks, and Sap, but this thing is ultimately pretty one note and I don't like it.

Jellyale: Can run a great mixed set, with Fishious as your Water STAB and Dark Pulse, Armor Cannon, Ice Beam, and Volt Switch as possible moves. 76 may not seem like a lot of Attack but it can pretty reliably get the doubled Fishious power, so that's not much of an issue really. Low HP makes its bulk not phenomenal, but its mixed potential combined with extra fast Spore and the coverage to deal with Grasses makes it likely not a great pick, sadly.

Dinoolotl: Its bulk is passable, and it has good special coverage and okay physical options for Coil sets, but it's really not stellar in any category. I can't say too much bad about it, but that doesn't mean it's necessarily worth a slot.

Shaingo: No. Under no circumstances. This thing is fat enough (on both sides thanks to Ice Scales) to run Rest without much worry. You could run TWave Purify, even, since you'll probably make up the difference. Counter invalidates physical attackers. An Adamant Hunttar V-Create does 53.1-62.6. You could counter setup with Defend Order and Substitute. You could Mean Look in a mon that can't break you and PP stall it. You could just play this thing as a support, spreading paralysis and swapping hazards. This thing has so many obnoxious strategies it can use, that it's just thoroughly gross. And any opponent playing against you has to assume they could be trapped, or Countered, or paralyzed, or maybe even Poisoned by PJab, every time it comes in until they know your set. Long story short, no.

Teleyle: Stench PopBomb, despite being hilarious, isn't really all that good. Parental Bond helps your damage output (and no it doesn't affect PopBomb, or at least it shouldn't) for both stats, but I think the only coverage it would want to run on the Special side is Mystical Fire (the double SpA drop could be cool though). Behemoth Bash is a decent STAB, but really, who could pass up the chance to flinch Parental Bond Iron Head provides? Parting Shot and Flip Turn are good pivoting options, Glacial Lance is nice to have as an option for Hunttar, and Fishious is Fishious (great for the Fires that would want to take Iron Head or the Grounds that would just want to kill you). Overall, I like this one a fair bit.
