Btw, this metagame existed in gen 6 namec Offstat https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/offstat-metagame.3474480/ But it had an additional rule that only Pokémon with attack difference with 50 or greater were allowed, so that mixed attackers wouldn't destroy the premise

You could call that Speedban

When Meloetta terastallizes into Stellar, and then changes its form via Relic Song, does it change its type?

It seems people don't realize that Terrakion dropped so hard not because it's worse than all those pokemon that landed in RU and NU, but because it's completely outclassed by its paradox form, which has the same role. There was just no reason to use Terrakion in OU, unlike other bad mons, which...

Does Upper Hand work on Triage boosted attacking moves?

+3 and stuck with no coverage. It'd really rather use some other Tera type against grass-resisting targets for consistency. That one-time +1 boost doesn't make any difference

Ugh... Why is everyone hyped about a 80 bp typeless move that only gets STAB once, again?.. Even on Serperior it's useless, because it's massively outclassed by Leaf Storm itself and doesn't solve Serperior's coverage problem, it'd rather Tera into some other type

I'm mildly irritated at the fact that Solar Beam, Solar Blade and Electro Shot are all clearly variations of each other, and yet all have different bp

The first is Lando, who's the second?

It seems I was wrong about Adaptability. It just plain sets the STAB modifier, not multiplies it, and it's further supported by it giving a different boost when terastallized (9/8 instead of 4/3), so Adaptability is not affected by this meta. Edited post

Any chance this idea could be revived? I have it coded and playable on Pokeliga server (called Superability), with a more refined premise so it won't go into Pet Mods territory: every ability activates twice. So, according to the definition: if it's a multiplier, it gets squared (eg Guts is...

If we look at gen 7 OU list, we see that most mons from there are just dexited, especially Megas and UBs Edit: also Volcarona ascended to Ubers

As if Miraidon wasn't powerful enough in Ubers

It's probably worth checking whether Eviolite works on Duraludon now too

I'm talking about Tera. On Adaptability mons, it gives 12.5% boost to Tera stab. Teraing Adaptability mons is a huge opportunity cost for a marginal boost
