    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Thinkers50 It seems like Wikipedia is too good for Thinkers50. His specific edits on that page are unviewable but seem to reflect the current state of the page, while the edits they made to the other cofounder's page have been left untouched...

    7* Raid - Fairy Primarina - May 10-12/17-19

    I don't think Energy Ball is very helpful coverage. It is less than half as strong than tera STAB Moonblast and still weaker than neutral Moonblast when SE, so it will only be better against 4x weaknesses that Moonblast already hits neutrally anyway, and it can't benefit in any other matchup...

    7* Raid - Fairy Primarina - May 10-12/17-19

    Aside from Kanto for Pokemon Day it looks like this theory is still going, we'll see if Sceptile and Incineroar are next. The first thought I had is that we're running out of non-STAB types for even the main starter raids now that they're resorting to secondary types, though Fairy isn't a bad...

    Smogon Users from Antarctica!

    Question to the Antarcticans: If 500 penguins entered a tournament in Antarctica and I won it, should I qualify for Worlds?

    (request) DELETE SMOGON NOW [decision pending]

    A minor and major update with the Pokemon forums: A recent change noticeable in the images of my last posts is that all posts now have a 3-dot icon in the top right. Previously this menu had the edit posts option in the past, but it brings up an empty menu now even on your own posts...

    Format Discussion Metronome Battle

    The new CAP 34 is in progress as of writing. It doesn't have a name yet, but it is Dragon/Poison and has a 45/43/117/120/110/115 stat spread (550 BST). Compared to Naganadel, it takes hits slightly better bulkwise despite the low HP, though it is also noticeably weaker with its Attack being its...

    Iron Leaves and Walking Wake Raid Event Movesets

    I was challenged to beat Iron Leaves with Azumarill again without Mud-Slap. It goes a lot faster if you have the right support (like Intimidate to cut both Attack and Quark Drive) and don't faint thanks to suboptimal move choices like Megahorn. I think it's important to note for these 5-star...

    Iron Leaves and Walking Wake Raid Event Movesets

    This does not seem like an optimal or tested strategy for a few reasons: The strategy assumes that Kingambit does not get hit and die for 6+ turns straight just to set up with only paralysis to stop it which is not reliable. Tera charge is stolen at the 40% HP mark, which Kowtow Cleave is going...

    (request) DELETE SMOGON NOW [decision pending]

    I added a report on there, but realistically I don't think the mods will take much action if they're approving the links in the first place and the mods have been light on removing external links (depending on the mod, maybe Mod_Pandaroo would be receptive), and there have been no bans since...

    In-Game Photography Thread

    It turns out that with the DLC's flight addition, you can also get on top of the roof of the academy by flying on top but entering from the loading zone outside Mesagoza, which doesn't respawn you as long as you stay above the height limit, so you can get on top of the Poke Ball, the tower with...

    It looks like it has a check for the number of hits from the flatbuffer/move data dump, which is set to 2 for both HitMax and HitMin for Dragon Darts.
