    Metagame Bonus Type

    I think an explanation about how Stellar type is supposed to work here is due to explain why this is broken.

    Amazing how every single word written here is just straight up wrong.

    Metagame Frantic Fusions (New resources @ Post #387)

    You're right, it doesn't work if the user is not Pecharunt.

    Hippowdon seems like a interesting alternative check to Archaludon, Raging Bolt and Gouging Fire. The main advantage it has is Sand Stream, which locks Archaludon into Electro Shot and removes Protosynthesis (and Weather Ball) from the sun abusers. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have enough...

    This looks weird. Why list essentially the same donor twice? Volbeat over Illumise is also weird since it's the latter that has Wish. In general the final evolution should be listed as a donor unless the pre-evo has a noteworthy unique ability, or is just banned. Quagsire should also be listed...

    Here's a fun little wallbreaker set if you hate Levitate, Fur Coat and Unaware. Great Tusk @ Life Orb Ability: Mold Breaker EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 Def Jolly Nature - Earthquake - Close Combat - Rock Slide - Dragon Dance

    The Dynamax/Terastal ban is very easily enforceable on cart. Just... Don't click the Dynamax button. There are no mechanics that can force a player to Dynamax against their will and force a DQ this way.

    The problem with this proposal is that it doesn't really fix any Sleep Clause issue except from preventing attempted resleeps on wakeup. It doesn't solve the problem of how to handle locking on the sleep move (via Encore or Trick) nor how to handle running out of PP on other moves.

    They're static story encounters with fixed IVs, but that shouldn't matter if they are maxed out. Raging Bolt and Iron Crown are encountered in the same in-game events but they don't have the same issue as long as you don't put less than 20 IVs in their stats.

    There seems to be a issue with inheriting from Gouging Fire and Iron Boulder specifically. I tried to validate this team And it says that Terrakion and Garchomp's sets are "illegal", while Darkrai passes without issues. Playing around with their IVs does not seem to solve the problem. Even...

    This replay does a pretty good job at showing how Gliscor deals with Kyurem and random ice coverage, but I think the opponent could have handled it much better if they ran LV Psychic Noise on Primarina over Sparkling Aria (literally why?).

    Fun little set to use with Wicked Blow Greninja @ Punching Glove Ability: Battle Bond Tera Type: Stellar EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe / 4 Def Jolly Nature - Wicked Blow - Surging Strikes - Jet Punch - Swords Dance You can also use Crawdaunt for this, it hits even harder but it's much slower and bad...

    On paper at least, it's a extremely bulky spin blocker that can run practically any set that is already great on Gholdengo (some examples: :garganacl: :chimecho: :bramblin: :sinistcha: :skeledirge: :Espeon: :slowking-galar: :gholdengo: :Persian-alola: ... you get the point). I still think it...

    Very cool set, but since Tera is banned is there a reason for running Tera Blast over Ice Beam or Scald?

    I'm not really into Heat Crash because some key targets like Great Tusk are heavy. Raging Fury is a more interesting option for me.

    AAA Almost Any Ability

    Small nitpick but Iron Crown's ability should be changed to Prism Armor, as it ignores the effects of Mold Breaker. Likewise if you ever make a set using Multiscale or (lol) Clear Body it's better to use Shadow Shield and Full Metal Body instead. These abilities are relatively mediocre by AAA...
