    Dark Pulse Ice Beam Sludge Bomb NP/Focus Blast @ EB/Sash/Boots/Berry, you can run knock or wisp if you want to I guess, but I don’t really view this as being plagued by 4MSS as it still covers the vast majority of opposing Pokemon

    Darkrai has my attention, but it definitely took a while for people to normalize the “good” sets and it’s still adjusting. I’d argue quite a few Pokemon are more pressing right now and I am curious to see how it develops in the interim. Community pretty overwhelmingly supported freeing it, so...

    Overturning the result of a community suspect with any sort of alternative tiering mechanism is entirely off the table. This would be a misuse (abuse) of power.

    They’re here: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/tiering-policy-framework.3628026/ — but please just VM or PM me with any questions, I’m always happy to help and contextualize. Rather be transparent and help people than make people do tedious reading lol

    As the guy running the tier, I just want to note that this post is nonsense; I do not think you know what you are talking about. Booster Energy’s tiering has nothing to do with cartridge accuracy; item bans happen all the time and aren’t complex at all. We have other singular items banned and...

    This whole post doesn’t actually discuss any counterplay to Ogerpon-Wellspring, instead opting to incorrectly label it as a Tera hog and claim it’s predictable (what does this mean when 3 moves hit the entire tier short of Amoonguss?). I don’t even think there’s an issue with saying you don’t...

    The issue is gliscor can still sit there for quite a few turns and then amoonguss isn’t even a threat for other Pokemon even if it fits worry seed; still enables knock and spikes or SD EQ EQ sequences

    Amoonguss has been tried quite a few times recently, even surfacing in some tournaments. It’s just absolutely deadweight into gliscor, Kingambit, and gholdengo while its lackluster damage output enables GKing and it’s pretty useless into bulky teams.

    Meow isn’t a good check, Amoonguss is painfully passive, Hydrapple only works in very limited capacities and has to watch out for Play Rough, and Ogerpon’s regular form is ok once over at least. Everything matters in context of course and Wellspring isn’t as durable as many other things...

    Curious what people think of Ogerpon-Wellspring. I find the combination of STABs and Play Rough challenging to switch into. I think it makes building balance or bulky teams really challenging. Switchins to it are limited, but its own switchins are limited as well admittedly.
