Thanks to all who helped with this admittedly overly ambitious article. Special thanks to Dragon who helped push it out in the last couple months, and wolf for casting his eagle eye over it all too.

The intention is for this to be a guide, and one that we can continually adapt as well. If you want to discuss any of the general sets here, do raise them! And if you want to write your own battling (or otherwise) article, do pitch it to us in the Daily forum section. :)

Imo there is no reason to run Tsareena without Rapid Spin, as that it is the only thing that makes it viable in the tiers where it is viable. Klefki totally outclasses it as a dual screen setter.

Good read! However Oricorio doesn't learn Quiver Dance afaik, but it's listed in its recommended set.

Agreed. Virizion is better too if you want a Grass-type dual screens setter. I changed it to an offensive Spin set, since that seems more suitable in OU than a defensive set. It's also the most common set on the higher ladder.

Fixed. I added a crappy Choice set. I doubt it can do anything else well lol.
