Referencing this post, Raw data is unweighted and Real data is how much Pokémon is actually used in a battle. While I do not play PH, I'd assume other Eternamax on the team have already won.

I'm not sure if this is the place to ask this, but why do people use non attacking moves like Toxic and Spikes on Choiced item sets?
Typically, it's because of the utility they tend to provide over other coverage moves. For example, Ash-Greninja can use Spikes in its Choice Specs set in order to pressure defensive Pokémon such as Toxapex and Tapu Fini, so the next time they come in, they're more pressured to check it when it actually does attack due to taking that extra damage. Similarly, something like Choice Band Entei can use Toxic to pressure stuff like bulky Waters so they're on a timer every time they want to switch into its STAB. Both of these Pokémon tend to force switches, so the drawback of being locked into a non-attacking move is lessened as a result.
Also a lot of the time they just.. kinda don't have any coverage worth running? Like, ash gren *could* run ice beam, but that.. isn't super useful?
Once the suspect test begins, you can join a suspect test by putting a given prefix in front of your name and laddering to achieve reqs stated in the OP. For example, for the recent RU Mienshao Suspect, the minimum amount of games needed varies based on your GXE. The number of games needed can be found by clicking the "minimum games needed" tag on the post. You can check when suspects are going on by doing the command "/suspects" on the simulator.
This information isn't usually given out, and it's a catch all for many reasons. The kinds of things we infract for can be found here, so you can typically assume it's some combination of those offenses adding up to 4+ points or an alt/bot account.
I'd message a super mod (one of the staff on the "Staff Online" page on the forum homepage) about it. You will also need to add the super mod to that conversation so they can see it. I can help you out now if your around and message me.
What exactly makes Gallade outclassed by other fighting types in higher tiers?
it's attack, while good, is not like absurd or anything (urshifu is stronger for instance), and while it's coverage is good, its abilities and bulk are nothing special. It's speed, however, absolutely ruins it. Basically all the fighting types (even the not so good ones) in OU are just faster, stronger, and/or bulkier, and often have better abilities.
Yoy can use @theusername to link someone in a post. Dont know if u refer to that

in relationship to Pet Mods, it usually means making a Pokemon better (revamp) or worse (devamp)
Keep it appropriate, no nudity or partial nudity, generally up to moderator discretion. Otherwise there's size limitations on stuff like large gifs, but the system generally tells you when a file is too large.
Easiest way is clicking on Account Details here, then clicking on the avatar there to get the option of uploading a new one
