Smogon Simple Questions & Suggestions Thread

Most likely random battles, but you can have a look here for the formats that require your own team. Choose a format and it will tell you the total amount of battles, and you can then compare them to what OU has (to save you a bit of time: it's 3385255 battles). Hope this helps!
 
Question about team tournaments and managers/ assistant Managers. I subconsciously know the answer to this question but I just thought I'd ask anyway. If your a manager and assistant manager of a team, you can't participate in any of the games. Example. If someone like BKC was a manager of a team and his team was doing bad in ADV OU. he couldn't play instead of one of his players?

the answer MAY shock you! Depending on the tournament, the opportunity is presented for you to self-buy as a manager! The price can be set to be universal (see: most tier Premier Leagues like MonotypePL, Ubers PL etc) or differ from manager to manager as seen in some smaller tournaments. Captains can also play in tournaments that don't need you to buy your players, such as World Cups. However, in something like SPL, BKC (or whomever) can't just say "fuck you, I'm playing now" when one of their slots is underperforming.

that's a lot of damage
 
Are damaging moves that reduce accuracy that good? I think Night Daze was viable in gen 8, and Muddy Water has a good BP. There are more but none of them are particularly strong (65 BP for most of them)
