DLC2 OU C&C will be returning to the two paragraph format outlined below.

The format should be as follows (You can also use the PS importable format for sets!):

[SET]
name:
move 1:
move 2:
move 3:
move 4:
item:
tera type:
ability:
nature:
evs:
ivs:

[SET COMMENTS]
Paragraph 1
- the role that the Pokemon plays;
- coverage moves that affect its role, there's no need to explain simple STAB moves unless they're slashed;
- a description of the EV spread in one sentence or less; don't focus on "default" things like maximum Attack investment, do give reasoning behind the benchmarks chosen;
- an explanation of Tera types used and why they're beneficial.

Paragraph 2
- a brief example of teammates that benefit from the analysed Pokemon's presence;
- a brief example of foes that the analysed Pokemon is vulnerable to + teammates to help cover them.

We will be adding an Overiew and Other Options section for certain Pokemon, for ease of readability and greater accuracy!

The Overview section should be formatted like such:
[OVERVIEW]
  • 1 paragraph
  • The general role of the Pokemon in the tier
  • A short summary of its various sets
  • Common checks/flaws
The Other Options section should be formatted like such:
Other Options
=============
  • 1 paragraph
  • Niche variations and options of the Pokemon that are not mentioned in the main analyses
  • A short explanation of their usage reasons
