Have a wonderful day, wahoo!
Because these threads can take a while to make, I feel that its best to have a reservations system here. Please only reserve two discussion thread to post at a time please! Note that this is specficly about Pokémon that are fairly unexplored in Ubers. We don't need a general Kyogre or Wobbuffet discussion thread for example, as they are fairly well explored Ubers. If you have a moveset or idea for a well explored Uber such as Dialga, please post it in the Undiscovered Movesets thread instead of posting it as its own thread!
We want to make sure that all of these threads have potential to have quality discussion. This would include having more than just c/ped sets and one sentence; having explanations and damage calcs when necessary is what we're looking for here. A great example when in doubt is Jibaku's Ho-oh thread.
GUIDELINES TO CREATING A DISCUSSION THREAD
To promote a high quality discussion, we require that you follow these simple guidelines when creating a Discussion Thread.
1) Introduce the Pokemon ("Why would you use it?")
For no brainers, here you will state the Pokemon your discussion thread will discuss. You will also introduce the qualities of that Pokemon, and anything else you can throw in.
2) A discussion thread is not an analysis
The purpose of your thread is to discuss a Pokemon in the Uber metagame, which an analysis does not do. You need much more than simply listing the Pokemon's traits, movepools and sets.
3) Damage calcs are important
You should always try to incorporate damage calcs into your discussion - these damage calcs give the readers better understanding of the Pokemon's qualities and are always nice to refer back to.
4) Interaction with other Pokemon
This includes possible partners and support, role in the metagame, and how it fares against the other Pokemon in the Uber metagame.
5) State when you are proposing an untested set or spread, and update the OP when new, successful sets are found.
6) Conclusion
Here you state what your thoughts on the Pokemon are, how well it may fare in the future, what you the posters to discuss, and/or wrap up your post.
