Use this thread to submit sets for viable Pokemon in VGC or to submit errors or changes you want to see on the dex. Some examples of changes are changing the order of slashes for moves or items on a particular Pokemon, adding or removing certain moves, tera types, or items, or to mention certain checks/counters/teammates in their respective paragraphs. For submitting sample sets, please submit optimal sets that have metagame relevance, and INCLUDE DAMAGE CALCULATIONS.

To see what analyses and what sets we have on the dex at the moment, look here. If you have any questions, message me or another moderator.

The dex currently features a list of mythicals that are banned with the caption:
"
The following Pokémon are banned from Regulation F:"

So that would probably need to be updated to say regulation G.

Koraidon: add life orb/close combat as a slash option. With an EUIC win and the amount of burst damage it deals i think both life orb and close combat as options on koraidon have sufficiently proven themselves. Life orb and close combat both overtook clear amulet/collision course in usage at Fortaleza regionals, where at Vancouver life orb overtook clear amulet and collision course and close combat were equal in usage.

Miraidon: Maybe add the bulky set that has been running around recently? We saw some incredibly bulky miraidon at EUIC which were nearing max HP.

Terapagos: add earth power as a slash option instead of the main option and replace the current main option with substitute. At EUIC it already had a lot more usage than earth power (55 appearances as opposed to 33 from earth power).

Lunala: add expanding force/psychic terrain into the analysis.

Ice rider: add tera fairy as an option & fast spread. Optionally the miraidon electric terrain spread (244+ SpA Choice Specs Hadron Engine Miraidon Electro Drift vs. 244 HP / 172 SpD Calyrex-Ice Rider in Electric Terrain: 174-205 (84.4 - 99.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO)

Whimsicott: add tera dark for the covert cloak set and include helping hand as a slash option.

Chi-yu: remove choice specs (too frail + too little usage at recent tournaments) and remove life orb for the glass cannon set (no life orb chi-yu at EUIC or vancouver)

Dondozo: add solo dozo set (sand tomb/yawn/trappy things): around 1/3rd of the dondozo at EUIC were solo and 1/2 of dondozo at vancouver. Working on an actual example of the saample set currently which i'll link in

Farigiraf: add psychic as a slash option over psychic noise (2hko's amoonguss with less investment/rising in usage)

Iron hands: add tera bug/poison as possible tera options

Nice suggestions I'll work on implementing them later today, probably going to stick with 1/2 all around cir spreads to make it less complicated and better for most newer teams. Not going to add to whims since it's still not relevant enough imo and going to add new sets instead of editing them for some of the mons (korai, lunala, etc.) also not going to add poison to hands since 4 slashes is too much and the other 3 are more relevant still.

Edit: Should be done

On my end:
still says "

Tera fairy doesn't show up as a tera option for ice rider (i couldn't really tell if you said you would add that, i interpreted it as that you would add tera fairy but forego the bulkier spread that lives electro drift/draco meteor in electric terrain)

Rest is implemented!

I did these, didn't do the calyrex one yesterday since I wanted to see how to do the slashes. I didn't put tera poison since it's less common than the other ones and if there are more than 3 slashes on a set it gets to crowded.
