    Update: If your pokemon flings a Leppa at opponent's pokemon-A, it will trigger ebc if you block that pokemon past 100 turns, even if you Block and recycle Leppa opponent's pokemon-B for 100+ turns. https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8ou-1940869476-vks70lg6e3l6hi8adanrtgsz43hkpwupw

    https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8ou-1938455915-42mdrufdf18hx3umtqsjfs5d0z9c7tgpw EBC will activate even if the trapped pokemon has u-turn. The game does check both teams for the strategy of block+recyle+leppa. It doesn't have to be used in battle. It will end in a tie...

    In Noam Chomsky's post, endless battle clause was updated to include Leppa+recycle, but I've been using it forever. However, sometimes Leppa+recycle+fling auto disqualifies me and sometimes it doesn't. I'm curious to know what triggers and doesn't trigger the clause. I did my own testing and...

    Clarify on endless battle clause

    In Noam Chomsky's post, endless battle clause was updated to include Leppa+recycle, but I've been using it for ever. However, sometimes Leppa+recycle+fling auto disqualifies me and sometimes it doesn't. I'm curious to know what triggers and doesn't trigger the clause.

    Approved Allow moves to have non-max PP

    The now legal combo of Recycle and Leppa berry would benefit from moves without max pp. Less PP means ingesting their berry faster, keeping it from being removed.

    I've been sharing my team and I haven't gotten around to making a RMT, but I see my pyukumuku set is becoming more popular. I already made several annoying posts about it in the past, so I guess it is documented but is there a place/thread where I can just call dibs or at least get recognition...

    Just finished Under the Udala Trees. Loved the intersection between a lesbian love story, war, faith, legend, and Ugandan culture.

    I really appreciate your time responding and providing all those calcs. I think I should clarify this is for gen7 OU meta. I'm not familiar with Keldeo's 8th gen sets. I'm posting in all forums because no one is responding to me. Sorry if this is the incorrect spot. It's not a "funny set"...

    Thank you for responding! Soak/Toxic isn't very good, and Spite PP stalling is actually the more favored set according to the community. Soak and Toxic fail vs Gliscor and pokemon that use sub. Pyuku generally doesn't care to boost its defenses because it has Unaware. Leppa gives Pyuku...

    STALL SLAYING CUCUMBER Actually, Knock Off isn't as bad of an issue as I thought. I figured out if you pp drain your own recover, you can activate your leppa. Thus, it is safe inside the cucumber's belly and can't be Knocked Off. Then you're free to spam block indiscriminately, even if it's...

    Sword & Shield OU Analysis Discussion

    I'm a huge fan of Pyukumuku. I recommend an addition to the Unaware set with Leppa berry and Recycle replacing Left-Overs/HDB/Rocky-Helmet and Spite. My experience is limited to OU, but it should apply to all tiers. Suggested Spread: Pyukumuku (F) @ Leppa Berry Ability: Unaware EVs: 252 HP /...
