Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
While I'm mostly staying out of this, I wanted to comment on this post because this seems like a strange, if not blatantly wrong, paradrigm (hopefully doesn't seem like I'm ganging up for you). Why would I ever vote on a Pokemon independent on it's effect on the metagame? That's why we're voting...
I appreciate the commitment to trying to keep Volcarona in OU and asking for replays lol. Not going to get into the battlefield myself and I'm personally more negative on the Matchup Moth than positive, but I appreciate the spirit.
I don't think we should just not add wishpassers because Mr Heat is strong lol. Plenty of subs on this slate beat that mon pretty well. And the defensive wishpasser shared a ground-type weakness--not exactly the best partner.

The kitchen is on fire.
:brute bonnet::bronzong:: This mon seems corny to me in a lot of ways tbh. Grass/Steel is a much more menacing type in standard play than here due to several reasons, not least of which being how thoroughly it not only shit on rain monstrosities but also benefitted from...
Not a fan of the hyperbole here: 85/97 isn't "downright excellent", pretty good sure but you're massively overhyping it...especially since 85/85 is 'just fine'? 12 points is not the difference between "fine" and "excellent". This is a pretty minor point but people read these posts a lot.

neat, balance changes
Deliraidon not being an insane as expected is exactly what I thought, didn't buy into the hype. Regen cores being amazing is also as expected. I stay winning
On a more serious note, I'm very glad we didn't go ahead with removing the special attack boost from Deliraidon's...
:iron hands::tornadus-therian: - Very good, maybe too good for it's own liking. Booster Energy Acrobatics seems like a really menacing pokemon to fight against; it has the bulk to dance up with ease, the power to smash through lots of stuff, and could even be used after. Increasing our reliance...
And now it seems odder, huh. Armarouge can reliably take on any slug set and Greninja...well, I think tera poison about handles any gren variant bar a series of specs hydro pumps, hm.
