Wow I am so sorry we can't build your team in time for you and that we have actual social lives instead of spending all of our times on pokemonshowdown.com lmao. I just don't get why you are acting entitled like it says in the intro don't bug us to build your shit fast because it makes us not want to build it at all. If no one wants to build around your request there's probably a reason and you should just pick a new one instead of complaining that the requests get clogged up. And by the way it's not our "job" to do this, it's us taking time out of our days to make teams for people so we aren't obligated to churn them out as fast as we can, especially around christmas and new years.This thread operates at an absolute snail's pace and it's unacceptable. You have unclaimed requests dating back an entire month yet new requests are still being tallied. Builders are just cherry picking cores when it should be more of a first come first serve basis.
Go ahead and cross off/remove my DD Mence core and take care of the people that have been waiting.
You have to take into consideration that these builders are also involved in other contributions in Smogon as well. Building great teams also require time to test these sets out on the ladder/meta for the builders to describe us in detail what works and what can be improved upon. Just food for thought.The holiday thing I understand. But if so many builders are busy or out of commission then at least close the shop to requests. Otherwise you're faced with the situation you have here where stuff is just piling up unattended. It's not efficient.
It doesn't (or shouldn't) matter how "viable" or "interesting" something is to the individual builders. Their job is to address the cores. They volunteer to work with other people's cores/material, not just they ones they see fit? Either way, my set is not my issue and it's not the reason I posted my first comment.
Uh, I already expressed it had nothing to do with my core. There are cores over a month old - that was my issue not my core."should be a first come first serve basis"
lmao dude if someone doesn't wanna build dd mence, a pokemon that hasn't even been good since the start of SM, then they don't have to. as false and CM have both said, the builders don't do this as a job. also, being a builder on teamshop isn't something people are competing for, so even if it is going at a "snail's pace", it is better than the alternative which is literally nothing.
also i originally took your core and then dropped it because of irl obligations.
Yoooo! No need to apologize though; thanks for the team/s! Gonna try these out soon. :Drequest:

yo, sorry for the wait this past 2 weeks has been pretty busy. so, m-diancie's typical role in a team is to break stuff down early-mid game, use its defensive utility to check certain threats, and revenge kill slower breakers. to make its offensive presence even stronger, i wanted to pair it up with sub steelium z magnezone to remove bulky steels, lure in and ohko offensive variations of lando-t, dent bulky grasses like av bulu, tang, m-venu, etc. with the original core i based the team off of, you need a defensive backbone that manages grounds and waters. i didn't necessarily want to use something like tangrowth with minimal offensive presence, so i decided on av tapu bulu to help pivot into ash gren, tapu koko, zygarde and scarf lele to an extent. natures madness also constantly keeps steel types like celesteela and m-scizor low as if they roost, magnezone can catch them easily, and if they decide to double they are in range of attacks from m-diancie. evs on this set 2hko sdef toxapex with wood hammer and hits a speed tier for jolly bisharp with the rest invested in bulk. although i had av bulu + zone, the team was still pretty weak to tapu lele in general, meaning a secondary steel would be appreciated. i decided on tect + toxic heatran that can scout zmoves / scarfers, whittle down teams very quickly and also provide a nice magearna answer. this set especially works nice in tandem with toxic + knock off toxapex which removes lefties and other items to help the offensive core of the team, while also still being able to play around volcarona (if you find volc to become too threatening, you can try payapa on toxapex along with tect heatran + pressure from sr). to round out the team with a glue, i felt like scarf landorus-t was an easy pick to provide role compression in a defogger, ground immunity, taking advantage of magnezone's support, etc.
this team has been doing very well for me but the only thing you may wanna consider is going with sr heatran + hp ice m-diancie which catches lead lando-t which can be slightly annoying to lead off against. have fun bro
another squad, bit more offensive:
