Welcome to the VGC Series 11 Reservation Index! Here you are able to reserve Pokemon that you are knowledgeable about to contribute an analysis to the format.

Series 11 Analyses feature a paragraph format, aimed to simplify and streamline the writing process. The format and guidelines can be found in the hidetag below.
The current format is listed below, copy-paste it in your thread and start writing from it:

Analysis Thread Tags
When you post your thread, be sure to use the appropriate tags for each stage of the analysis. Update your thread's tags and stamp number as you move through the process. Let us know if you're unable to meet any time limit.
[WIP] - Work in Progress: The skeleton is incomplete and is not ready for the QC team to evaluate. Keep in mind that the longer your analysis stays in WIP stage, the greater the chance of it being reassigned. Please avoid making comments in these threads until they are ready unless it's something very important.
[Quality Control] - Quality Control Ready: In the thread title, include [QC 0/1]. The preview is complete and now needs to seek approval from the QC Team. Make sure you update the thread title with the number of QC checks you currently have.
[Copyediting] - Grammar-Prose Ready: In the set title, include [GP 0/1]. The required QC approval has been met. The Grammar-Prose team now takes over. When you are ready for a GP check, please post in the Grammar-Prose Queue with a link to your analysis.
[Done] - After the analysis gets the GP stamp, it is ready for upload.
Reservation List
After reserving a Pokemon, you must post your analysis in a timely fashion. Your analysis thread must be up in 48 hours (2 days) or your reservation will be dropped. It must then be QC ready within 4 days from the reservation. This is noticeably shorter than other analysis procedures, but due to the fast changing rulesets in VGC, timeliness is absolutely vital. If you have any extenuating circumstances that prevent you from getting up your thread within this time frame, notify one of the VGC C&C Moderators. Feel free to clarify anything in the Smogon VGC Discord.
All analyses must be approved by the VGC Quality Control Team.

Reservation Rules
- Anyone can reserve up to two analyses at a time and can add a third if their original two are QC ready first. You are free to reserve again once an analysis is in GP. Essentially, they don't count towards your limit of three once they're GP ready. QC members can reserve 3 analyses at a time.
- Make your reservation by posting in this thread. Check the index to make sure your Pokemon hasn't been taken yet, and check the recent posts in this thread in case the index isn't fully updated.
- QC members are free to reserve high priority Pokemon; non-QC members have to get approval from a moderator before writing them (we'll more than likely edit your post with the approval).
- Only reserve a Pokemon if you have a good amount of knowledge about it and experience with the metagame. C&C moderators can reject your reservation if they feel you are not prepared to write a good analysis.
- Do not edit your reservation posts. If you change your mind about a reservation, make a new post instead.
Analysis Thread Tags
When you post your thread, be sure to use the appropriate tags for each stage of the analysis. Update your thread's tags and stamp number as you move through the process. Let us know if you're unable to meet any time limit.
