There has been a higher ammount of winners than usual. However, due to general positive reception of this slate, Council has decided to let more winners go through rather than doing a tiebreak. With that out of the way...
As previously discussed, the next few weeks will be dedicated to Playtesting. A Tournament is planned for the weekend, more on that soon. Even that aside though, be sure to play against one another! This is also a good moment to theorycraft some sets and potential cores between all previous winners as well.
Joins us at the Pet Mods Showdown Server tomorrow, at 6 PM EST, for our first roomtour! Do note we may run into a few bugs - a large part of this tour is meant to be dedicated to finding out what doesn't quite work yet. We will also be testing to see if any Pokémon in particular is too strong
These are the currently known bugs:
Illusion currently does not allow you to select your team order
Epic Beam crashes the game and will be banned for the tour
TeraMax mons can indefinitely Dynamax over and over again. Wishing Stone will be banned for the tour
These are bugs that were recently fixed:
Praying Visitor's Rewind was restoring items for the whole team. This is now fixed.
Dimensional Cape was not providing Hazard immunity. This is now fixed.
Trying to give Reticannon moves on teambuilder crashes your browser. This is now fixed.
5 Big Dooms only hits once when used with Broken Hourglass. This is now fixed.
Iron Fist's Tera mechanic was not working properly. This is now fixed.
Illusion currently does not allow you to select your team order
Epic Beam crashes the game and will be banned for the tour
Sugar Bag's boost is lasting for one extra turn and will be banned for the tour
After tomorrow's tournament, I will post usage stats for both tournaments. These will likely not be a fully accurate representation of the metagame due to the low amount of teams being used in play, but should still be an interesting watch. Regardless, there's a few things we can infer about the metagame
Nothing feels particularly too broken at the moment, which is good. We have a few underpowered Pokémon, but they're more or less what we were already expecting to fall off or be rather niche (Namely, Delibird and Ditto)
Our only Normal-type so far is Ditto. It would be ideal for there to be a little more variety in this type
Although we have a lot of Bulky Pokémon, we have little in the way of actual dedicated walls. In my opinion, this is the biggest thing to take care of at the moment for the sake of diversifying the metagame a little
Set-Up Sweepers are also somewhat difficult to stop at the moment. Do with that what you will
Lastly, I believe we could diversify Speed Tiers a little bit around the 110s
With that all out of the way, we can move on!
Slate 6 is open for submissions! You have until October 11 to make you subs!

Reasoning: I was gonna do something else but then it imported the image in so big it made me a little scared
Custom: Delusion - Heal 12.5% HP at the end of each turn while confused or in Psychic Terrain Description: Unaware fast defensive pivot that can disrupt with Encore, or try for a sweep with a calm mind stored power set. Struggles with limited coverage options.
Custom: Black Smoke - Other Pokémon cannot have their stats increased, unless immune to Powder.
Nerve Poison - Special Poison - 80 BP 100 Acc 15 PP - 30% Paralysis Description: Alternative set up control ability that is really fun to use, spdef mon.

Stats: 55 / 80 / 140 / 95 / 100 / 50 Abilities: Water Absorb / Friend Guard Moves: Stone Stacking, Shadow Ball, Night Shade, Power Gem, Hydro Pump, Scorching Sands, Poltergeist, Stone Edge, Stealth Rock, Spikes, Toxic

Custom: Stone Stacking - Special Ghost - 140 BP 100 Acc 5 PP - Sets Stealth Rock on the user's side. Description: Physdef that can be scary offensively at the cost of setting rocks on your own side.
Custom: Grow Bigger - Once per battle, this Pokémon can Dynamax for 1 turn. Description: Can use her ability to one-time check just about anything, and is threatening offensively with Gigaton Hammer, but has tough 4MSS due to needing WishTect for healing. Struggles to decide to invest in Speed or in HP.
| BP: 90 | Accuracy: 100 | PP: 16 | Deals double damage to Ghost-types. Description: Fast bulky guy that compresses a lot of roles with its insane movepool. It's an effective blanket check to Fire-types, some Ice-types, and notably counters Ghost-types with its signature move, Soul Wind. Icaruff can pair that amazing defensive profile with setting Rocks, Defogging, Wishpassing, or becoming a capable setup sweeper with Calm Mind sets. The low Special Attack is a roadblock to this becoming too threatening too quickly, but it does have STAB Boomburst and wild coverage to help with potential passivity issues. It's been seen on playstyles varying from stall to GTerrain offense in its home meta, so it should serve to be a versatile addition if chosen.
Movepool: Blissey's NatDex movepool - Hidden Power + Sweetheart*, Soft-Boiled (AGE) Desc: A Normal type that is also a pure wall. Basically vanilla Blissey but way less passive with chip damage from Rebound Belly and damage from Sweetheart. Should help with special sweepers.
Rebound Belly: The opponent receives 1/8 recoil damage from special non-Sound moves.
Sweetheart: Fairy; Special, 65 BP, 100% Accuracy, 10 (16) PP, Heals the user's party's status conditions. Uses SpD instead of SpA.
Soft-Boiled (AGE): Soft-Boiled but 16 PP instead of 8.
(Resub)
Name: Zoroark-Hisui | Zoroark-Hisui-Mega Mod of Origin: A Golden Experience Type: Normal/Ghost | Normal/Ghost Ability: Illusion | Bitter Hatred Stats: 55 HP / 90 Atk / 60 Def / 125 SpA / 60 SpD / 120 Spe | 55 HP / 90 Atk / 100 Def / 130 SpA / 100 SpD / 130 Spe [BST: 510 | 610] Notable Moves:
Nasty Plot,Wish, Toxic, Teleport, Thunder Wave, Stealth Rock, Taunt
Movepool: Zoroark-Hisui NatDex movepool + Moonlight, Hypnotic Horror, Return, Frustration, Chillblain, Magic Missile Desc: Speed control? I guess it does that but it's not why I subbed it. Strong Ghost? Check. Setup sweeper? Sort of? I mean Nasty Plot and Bitter Hatred is also a setup? I guess it also abuses status with WoW + Hex? So yup you can also fuck around with Specs or NPLO on base form, or you can use the bulkier version that can really become strong after taking U-turns and stuff like that.
Zoroarkite: If held by a Zoroark-Hisui, this item allows it to Mega Evolve in battle.
Bitter Hatred: Deal 10% bonus damage for each hit taken (up to 50%).
Hypnotic Horror: Psychic; Special, 120BP, 100% Accuracy, 5 (8) PP, Lowers the user's SpA and SpD by one afterward.
Bitter Malice: Ghost, Special, 60 Power, 100% Accuracy, 10 (16) PP, 30% freeze. 2x power if target is already statused.
Chillblain: Ice, Status, 85% Accuracy, 20 (32) PP, Freezes the target.
Magic Missile: Normal, Special, 25 Power, -, 20 (32) PP, Hits 2-5 times in one turn. Does not check accuracy, bypass immunities.
