Can't wait for the reveal that the current suspect was actually for Jirachi all along, now that would be a good april fools

What type of bug are you reporting? Validator What is the bug? The IV locks for Raging Bolt, Gouging Fire, Iron Crown, Iron Boulder and Terapagos are not properly implemented. For the former four it can only be 20 or 31 for every stat, for Terapagos it can only be 31 for every stat except...

In addition to this terapagos is hardcoded to be 31/15/31/31/31/31. Would be great if this could be implemented for regulation F VGC and the blueberry prologue ladders at least (now that we know terapagos is legal there).

I would like to know the council's thoughts on shed tail now that we have two new users for it in sceptile and smeargle. I believe that to be consistent with previous tiering decision surrounding it the course of action would be to unban shed tail and then ban the abusers one by one if neccesary...

Are the three Terapagos abilities affected by neutralizing gas? Is there any way to send out the small Terapagos into battle without it transforming, i.e. by hacking another ability onto it? Also since neutralizing gas was updated to now succesfully suppress the paradox abilities, perhaps it...

Hi Ausma, could I ask if some of the more off-topic posts in the SV OU metagame thread could be deleted? I realise this is an odd request but I'm actually getting second-hand embarrassment reading through the thread today...

If you hack the teal mask on does it have the same 20% boosting effect of the other masks? Or is it functionally useless?

I asked about something like this in the usage stats discussion thread, and Marty's reply was that he no longer has as much free time as he did during the 2020 pandemic when they implemented this so they won't be doing half-monthly updates...

On showdown we currently have two options to use, sprites or models. Both of the models and sprites take hard work by volunteers to be created, meaning that for both sprites and models a lot of pokemon end up with placeholder images until they have a custom made model or sprite to take its...

Does banning tera blast actually alleviate what people are saying are the main problems with terastallization? Some of the most succesful abusers of tera (like Kingambit and Garganacl) barely even run tera blast. It's a huge opportunity cost to run it and it almost forces your choice of tera...

Will there be another accelerated droprate to the lower tiers based on UU usage for July (i.e. 1/15th of 4.52% goes straight to NU), or was that a one-time thing for the OU usage stats only? Currently there's still about 30 pokemon too many in UU, 30 pokemon would then drop to RU August 1st...

An interesting alternate way of interpreting the data is to, rather than take the average score for every pokemon, look at how many percent of voters votes a 4 or a 5 for a pokemon. I consider these to be the answer options that would be ok with a suspect test for the mon, whereas 3 and below...

I would love it if more council members besides Finch and Ausma could share the reasoning behind their votes.

Unbanning everything and then doing quickban waves again seems like the best way to go. Theorymon and posting calcs is all great fun but in Sworld and Shield many even top players were convinced that Blaziken should not be unbanned because it would break the tier, only for it to end up in UU...

Should Greninja really be dropping from Doubles OU to Doubles UU considering it didn't even have 5 full days in the tier? Is there any precedent for this, or is that up to the tier leaders?

So does the bring 6 pick 3 principle already apply species clause before team preview (meaning you can only bring 3 pokemon despite the max technically being set to 6), or is species clause not applied until the selection so you could bring both raichu's and then pick which one you want to use...

That's what I get keeping the thread open for dinner and not refreshing it upon returning, thanks

Since we're allowed to ask questions I'm curious as to why is Salamence unranked? Is it considered 100% outclassed by dragonite? I figured it was about on par with dragonite though the usage stats (and these rankings) do not agree. It does seem to get about as much usage as a lot of the other C+...

Any chance we could have any update on this with the crown tundra released? We know a lot of these moves to be working, and for instance that tail glow no longer works. I'm most curious about specifically Psycho Boost, since it's technically legal on the Lugia from gen 3. I assume psycho boost...
