    very grateful for survey transparency and noting on all options and responses, even the minority ones, but we should probably not give all our attention to the fringe/niche picks mentioned by a few people cough you know what i mean cough, and instead focus on the things that will actually affect...

    I think there is merit to sleep being "uncompetitive" beyond just the discussion of cart accuracy--hypnosis (and other moves, like sing) are just barely better than chance, but being on otherwise very strong and fast pokemon (as opposed to like, spore) gives those pokemon a chance to just win if...

    exactly, serperior hits like a wet sock without a boost, but it's got the tools it needs to set up situations to be able to throw out a leaf storm and go crazy from there.
