Tapu Bulu should prolly be added to defensive pivots due to its AV set
Added bothIs Jirachi not a viable rock setter?
Lando is on every one of those lmao, your page had a loading error and hasn't loaded in the sprite for it. Hawlucha is also on the page.I guess Landor is neither a viable Stealth Rock user, nor a viable Scarfer, nor a viable Pivot, nor a viable Wallbreaker, nor a viable Hazard Removal, nor a viable Suicide Lead and nor a viable Set-up Sweeper
edit: and add Hawlucha
omg lmao i was so confusedLando is on every one of those lmao, your page had a loading error and hasn't loaded in the sprite for it. Hawlucha is also on the page.
Must have been in issue in saving my edit, thanks for pointing that outWhy ain’t Bulu in defensive pivots yet?
I don't think that z-hyp/z-eterrain xurk should be added onto the compedium. Personally, I find it rather weak, along with its speed tier being very horrible, even at +1, which is why it doesn't have major usage in the tier. The usurp of usage in pokemon such as AV Bulu and to an extent mega latios and amoonguss means that xurkitree more than likely will need extensive support in order to function, as mainstays in the tier such as ferro, magearna, kyurem-black, mega and regular ttar, latios, tangrowth, magnezone, mega venusaur, zard x and chansey are all higher ranked pokemon(B+ or higher) that can either pivot into xurkitree and proceed to beat it, or straight up counter this set. Not to mention the fact that since xurkitree has a pitiful base speed of 83, common scarfers such as landorus, keldeo, kartana, tapu lele, blacephalon and latios can all easily revenge kill it.I know it's really niche, but Z-Hypnosis xurkitree can work well. People don't see it coming and with the right support it sweep easily.
Also, I know Xurkitree isn't on the VR, but mons not on it have been added here
This is true, but when you realise that xurkitree has near pitiful bulk, scarf/pr removal as absolutely key with it, which almost invalidates its role as a sweeper. I'm not denying that tg xurk shouldn't be on the comp(I only denounced z-terrain/z-psych but not the tg gigavolt set since it isn't as bad as this set), I personally think it should considering +3 havoc is an absolute nuke, but considering its pitiful bulk + speed tier, which makes it hard for xurk to dual dance in most situations. There are more conventional sweepers such as manaphy completely outclass it, considering its superior bulk and speed tier. Xurkitree is pure deadweight vs HO, Offense, and barely functions against BO and rain, with the later 2 being the more common team archetypes. This leaves balance and stall, which in all fairness it does do well against, but LL's set is a more conventional set against those archetypes, meaning that in most situations a z-terrain/z-hyp is going to be inferior to a gigavolt havoc tail glow set. All in all, trying to make xurkitree a sweeper is like trying to fit a round block in a square peg.+3 252 SpA Xurkitree Thunderbolt vs. 248 HP / 8 SpD Eviolite Chansey: 288-340 (40.9 - 48.3%) -- 69.5% chance to 2HKO after Stealth Rock

Assuming stealth rocks, Xurkitree 2-shots everything you mentioned, and that's after one tail glow. Once he gets rolling there's nothing in the tier that can wall him.
The only support he needs is entry hazards and priority/scarf removal, which isn't uncommon among sweepers. Once their speed control is gone, they can't do anything.
It's definitely a niche pick, but Xurkitree is better than people make it out to be. With a little extra support, he pays off big.
Because avalugg has been used effectively on stall by high-profile players while Conkeldurr hasn't recently. 2 things: being in BL does not guarantee a mon a place in the compendium, and please don't use other non-vr mons existing on the compendium as one of the major reasonings for your nomination.Wait guys why is Conkeldurr not on here as a breaker or something? It's flame orb set literally gives it a stronger life orb that does less damage to it than an actual life orb, while giving it ridiculously powerful elemental and Drain/Mach punches that can bust through pretty much anything e.g. ferrothorn from 100% health. This is the exact reason it was banned from UU. So, now I ask how avalugg is here but conkeldurr is not.
ABR made an Avalugg stall a while ago and used it in some of his usum release tour gamesI see. The main reason I nominated it is I see potential in it as a breaker of sorts in the vein of ttar, with semi-reliable recovery in drain punch and great coverage moves to choose from. But in addition to raw power, mach punch lets it deal with common threats like ash-gren and kartana ( if it`s weakened ) and guts allow it to sponge status. it can hit pretty much all of OU for super effective damage; what it doesn't hit super effectively it can always be hit by facade to round off conkeldurr`s movepool.
Also, which players used avalugg and when?

Updated, thanksView attachment 100932should be moved into the niche section of choice scarf users, as it's ranked C+ on the Sets vr, whilst also being its worst set.
View attachment 100933should also be added to both set-up and taunt based stallbreakers, as its one of ho's most consistent stallbreakers in the current meta.
View attachment 100935 should be moved to the niche section (or preferably removed from/) of Autotomize / Rock Polish, as offensive celesteela has no place in this meta.
View attachment 100937potentially add this listed as (Unburden) under the Other Section of the Set Up sweepers? It could be helpful to newer players?
View attachment 100938remove from Priority. I often find that Greninja has no place in its moveset to facilitate shadow sneak on any of its sets
View attachment 100940remove from Other Set up sweepers. Venusaur's only niche in this meta is as a mixed / specially defensive wall.
Shouldn't Toxapex and Tapu Fini be before the "|"?Trappers:
Other (Magma Storm / Whirlpool etc):|
