1v1 Analyses are moving to a mini analysis format to allow more content to be completed and edited quickly as possible to keep up with metagame changes. The format that will be used is below:

[SET]
Light Ball Offensive (Pikachu) @ Light Ball
Ability: Lightning Rod
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
- Volt Tackle
- Extreme Speed
- Iron Tail / Play Rough
- Encore

[SET COMMENTS]

Set Description
=============
Explain what the set's moves, items, and abilities are for, whenever it isn't blatantly clear. For example, you generally don't need to explain something obvious like why Icicle Crash or Gorilla Tactics are used on Galarian Darmanitan as opposed to needing to explain something less obvious like its item choice or coverage moves like Flare Blitz, Giga Impact, etc.

EVs
=============
Explain the EV spread of the analysis with all relevant benchmarks made clear. Alternative viable EV spreads can also be explained here with what they do differently to the main spread and what you gain or lose from them.

Usage Tips
=============
Explain how to use the Set; any particular move combinations that players should know, any matchups that require particular plays, cases where something might be a 50/50, etc. This includes examples like explaining when Mega Charizard X should use Dragon Dance vs attacking immediately, beating Volcarona with Aromatisse, playing with or around Custap Berry Pokemon, etc.

[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============
List some options for the Pokemon user that are plausible but not always recommended due to being either not consistent enough or too outclassed by other Pokemon in the metagame. This section is entirely optional, so if a Pokemon doesn't really have any noteworthy alternative options, don't feel obliged to try and make something up.

Due to inactivity we will be moving ORAS analyses to a mini format as they are easier to complete and would get the point across easily about each Pokemon.

If you have a full analysis in QC you don't need to convert it to a mini-format but every new one shall be mini.
