    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4 [PALAFIN RETEST]

    So I get people being perturbed or disagreeing with Palafin in current OU for various reasons, but I'm a little confused by the bewilderment or opposition to the Likeshop suggestion to make it a test. THe shop just stands in as another process for a topic to be picked, but by all accounts it's...

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4 [PALAFIN RETEST]

    Okay to address the reply to my section in particular, there are some serious contentions I have here First of all, speed tier argument only applies significantly to Iron Valiant and Iron Moth (Boulder uses it but it's not much of a Meta influencer atm), who are good but not exactly short of...

    I'm still failing to see how Booster Energy warrants discussion when the only mon currently here that is potentially-broken with it but not without it is Roaring Moon: Valiant it's one of several sets in its toolbox while not being very overwhelming individually, and Bolt is a clear combination...

    So the other thing that made Wake drop off is that ultimately it's going to want to be on Sun, which is a very up-and-down playstyle in OU usage. That said I don't think it would have a role in the BE discussion anyway. Booster Energy stands in for Protosynthesis, but besides Wake being a...

    Body Press scales on the DEF stat, so Cobalion makes no use of its ATK stat in this set (in which case it is optimal to minimize it for things like Foul Play and Confusion damage as tiny edge cases).

    So some other news, the McDonalds promotion in the US includes Raid spawns from 6-7PM at the sponsored Gyms, which for Monday and presumably the rest of this Week, are Kyurem spawns. If you have any overseas friends and want in on those to hunt ahead of Unova Tour or something, keep an eye on...

    Resource SV OU Indigo Disk Viability Ranking Thread - (update on post #755)

    Maybe it's the Uber-drop brainrot but my brain actually went to Dialga when reading the Trick Room explanations that followed. Is Trick Room still viable in this meta such that being able to set it with any niche advantage warrants a ranking? I feel like compared to Webs, TR is just a really...

    First, congrats on a Shundo, those are extremely rare (only have 2 myself playing since Launch). If you're investing for the sake of Master League alongside raiding, the primary thing to watch for is 15 ATK and 15 DEF to avoid missing Breakpoints/Bulkpoints (can elaborate but essentially a stat...

    So if I win or lose a Gamble, would I hear a reply/message or simply have them added? Gamble 200 in the meantime

    I actually am curious what happens if two different suspect-pools raise the like numbers desired. Will it go to the first to get full confirmation, tie-breaker on Likes pooled, or negotiation once the shop closes?

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4 [PALAFIN RETEST]

    I think it's less absurd than it initially sounds (whether or not it's a considerable option) considering Arceus forms can't hold Boots and thus the Rock-weak ones are massively undercut despite their high bulk given that and Spikes are frequent. The movepool's good but it's also not like we...

    So heads up in case it influences the decision, I think Finch has previously stated that Eleki could be dropped, but Volc would be a retest if Tera Blast was banned. I don't know if things have changed since the post I read that in, but be aware there might be another step to dropping the Moth...

    Well, I've beat around the bush without buying, guess I'll start with a 100 Like gamble. :talonflame:

    Palafin and Solgaleo were cited as things that could be chosen, Lugia might not actually be as farfetched a derail as it seemed before in that context. Meanwhile me trying to determine if it would be funnier to try Landorus or a Giratina if I had any sway over such a Suspect vote.

    12 Days of Likeshop - 2024

    Is it possible to see/request the options currently available (though I presume from wording that suggestions can be submitted for approval), in case that influences willingness to pool, or is part of the fun meant to be betting before and deciding after?

    Pokémon GO

    With Go Fest the confusion I more commonly encountered was people who did not know that there was both a Free Cosmog research and an additional Ticket-Paid Research for a fully evolved mon (usually they only knew the former since you had to finish it to get the latter), but I distinctly recall...

    So Necrozma Raid Day this weekend has me confused that no news on obtaining a Cosmog has been announced, akin to the Meteorite for Rayquaza's Raid Days.

    Yeah, just wanted to confirm where to ask if the initial rules post had anything I didn't quite follow (EX: Reaction Score is equivalent to Likes vs excluding things like Angry/Sad/Haha ones that weren't "Like" reactions specifically) The Suspect one is a funny experiment because of the number...
