Greetings, everyone! It has been a great day among the Diamond Hand's ranks...both Princirang and Nedontrol have passed the seal of approval, and are now ready to help us in the battlefield. Though, the former nearly got rejected by a violation of the rules. When the veto phase says that it any approved changes gets in scott free, they get in scott free! I have also received a variety of upgrades on my behalf, from the ability to recover my wounds, to being able to swap the bodies of anyone I desire...finally, a use for my tank of royal Magikarp. But, these benefits came at a price...We recieved a grievous attack from a giant monster that calls itself "The Pearl Hand", which had weapons designed to destroy our ranks...and Lawset gave his life to send it back. But, we will adapt....
And yet, another price befell us, as now we can only submit one new Pokémon to a slate at a time for now. This means our ranks are going to grow a lot slower...so we need all the help we can get in recruiting members made by other people. On the plus side, this also means that we can now do something we haven't done before...give the other beasts an offer they can't refuse!

Flavor / Description: Dr Liberty serves as the scientist of the Diamond Hand, based around the phrase "Put your thinking cap on". With his crazy concoctions that can turn anything into anything, he had mostly worked on the sidelines, creating new weapons for the Diamond Hand to use. He was additionally the one responsible for creating Zestii and Nihilink. However, with the battle raging on, Dr. Liberty has finally stepped into the battlefield! The biggest mystery, though, is how he even got into the Diamond Hand in the first place. No-one is certain....not even Dr. Liberty himself. But apparently, it involved a vat of acid that was exposed to the energy of the Slumbering Weald....
Note: This Pokémon is male only.
Metagame Change: Diamond Hand move tag: Moves can now be tagged as being part of the Diamond Hand, as well as Pokémon. Any Pokémon that has a Diamond Hand move in it's moveset is automatically treated as being part of the Diamond Hand, and will be supported by moves such as Get Em', Boys. By default, the Diamond Hand moves are Velvet Blade, Diamond Hatchet, Rainbow Feather, Frigid Terrain, Get Em', Boys, Throw Em' A Mug, Jurassic Feast, and Enchanted Boomerang, alongside Call The Boss, Chaos Potion, and Justice Potion if they get approved.
New move: Call The Boss: A Normal-type Status Move with 16 PP and -2 Priority. The user switches out. If the new Pokémon is a Diamond Hand member, their highest stat is raised by 1, or 2 if they're Daiyafia or Anarlvet. Can be learnt by all Diamond Hand members (Except for Daiyafia)
