    Is Sheer Force Trailblaze Feraligatr intentional? A 50 BP Grass coverage move that doesn't raise speed seems pretty bad

    Why does Will-o-Wisp Gengar not run Hex? Why are Substitute and Hex not moves Gengar ever has in randbats, when Sub/Wisp/Hex is one of its main sets?

    CAP 32 - Part 19 - Post Play Lookback 2

    I'm ultimately indifferent to altering Hemo's Sp. Attack stat. While yes it may be confusing to new players, being honest the CAP process as a whole is confusing and has pretty high barriers of entry (the damage calculator and smogon pages often being outdated, the ladder not being the best way...

    CAP 32 - Part 19 - Post Play Lookback 2

    I'm in the camp that we don't really need to touch movepool. As already mentioned we solved the (non) issue of Hemogoblin's convoluted toolkit, and removing anything like Bitter Blade, Bulk Up, or Knock Off feels largely unnecessary and would impact its set more than what is needed. If we had to...

    Just got an Unburden Hawlucha that didn't have Acrobatics and randomly had Encore. Is this intentional? If so, it's bad
