    Metagame Mergemons

    After playing this OM for a couple days, I think I've found a single favorite/deadly Pokemon. Salazzle is an utter monster in this metagame. And really, I've found it really only takes advantage of one of the moves it receives from Shiinotic. Spore, a simple yet effective move. Even more...

    Metagame Nature Swap

    I feel like I'm missing something here. The first set that came to mind for me was Mega Camerupt (which looks to be pretty meta looking through here) but... it's not right. So, By giving it a timid nature (+Speed -Attack) it should swap base 100 ATK with base 40 Speed, right? Yet with nearly...

    Metagame Tier Shift

    Tier Shift is honestly my favorite OM. It gives an absurd amount of variety in what you can run and makes certain Pokemon you'd never even spare a second glance completely usable. The depths this game can go to in terms of what all is runnable is insane. Even sets that are already used get...

    Metagame Trademarked

    Xurkitree is no stranger to running Scarf sets, which considering that absolutely absurd SpA Stat, might make it worth it. I'd also argue the coverage that Xurkitree has is better. It really comes down to if you're willing to run Scarf

    Metagame Trademarked

    So not the meta I'm best at, but I think I managed a few neat sets. This meta does help set Pokemon up a turn sooner if they usually have multiple phase setup, and one of the ones I saw first was: Kommo-o @ Salac Berry Ability: substitute EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature -...

    Metagame Tier Shift

    Darn, I thought Tier Shift had become a constant metagame on the main server, but it died again. Oh well

    Metagame Tier Shift

    So, I think I've developed a really sound team. It's won quite a few games for me, though it's still getting a bit of testing down, it's performing well. It's fairly well balanced, I think, the only thing it's lacking is a way to get Stealth Rocks up... on another note, how do I turn off the...

    Metagame Tier Shift

    Probably one of my favorite Pokemon to run in Tier Shift is Tauros. In PUBL, he gets a pretty good boost, specifically giving him a great 130 base ATK and MASSIVE 140 base Speed. On top of that, he has the great Life Force combo boosting all of his attacks, making him a monster of a physical...

    Metagame Fortemons

    I definitely see the value of Zeraora as a pivot, but in my personal opinion, his potential is being GREATLY diminished when put into that role. While testing out some sets, I found a specific usage of Zeraora that greatly outstrips any value I've seen from the other pivots. Zeraora @...

    Metagame Partners in Crime

    I haven’t had the opportunity to attempt this pair yet, but while I was considering viable combinations, my mind settled on this possibility. Serperior @ Leftovers Ability: Contrary - Leaf Storm - Substitute - Hidden Power Ground - Giga Drain Combined with: Victini @ Life Orb Ability...

    M&M Mix and Mega

    I had an idea for a set I've never seen contemplated, and I wanted to run it through here, I think it'll be pretty good. Zygarde @ Banettite Ability: Aura Break EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD Adamant Nature - Glare - Coil - Thousand Arrows - Iron Tail Banettite will give Zygarde a...

    Metagame Last Will

    I am curious, how would Focus Punch work? Would it tighten then attack all before the faint, or what? Same with 2 turn moves. Would they go off, or be a waste? Can Freeze Shock actually be useful?

    How would Battle Bond work put on any Pokemon? Would it be useless, would it give the same boosts as going from Greninja to Ash-Greninja?

    M&M Mix and Mega

    I just had a random thought. Is it possible, that you can send Ash-Greninja can Mega Evolve in Mix and Mega?

    M&M Mix and Mega

    So basically, even though we're playing a "for fun" tier that has no ties to basic gameplay, we're currently being limited by a 3DS app in this version and being locked out of the version of the game that wasn't? Is that how I'm understanding this?

    M&M Mix and Mega

    I Something has been severely bugging me. Why are we allowed to use Pokemon like Arceus, but not stones like Aggronite? I mean, if we're going by what's availible in Sun and Moon, or will eb through Pokebank, then why? Mix and Mega is basically more limited Hackmons, so why is it being limited...
