I am thinking about "separate the art from the artist" because there is a lot of that going around Twitter today regarding J.K. Rowling's continued flirtation with TERFness. 

@anthracite To borrow the commonly (mis)quoted Bruce Lee dedication (which itself appears to be adapted from an earlier quote from, of all people, Mao Zedong):

"Research your own experience; absorb what is useful, reject what is useless and add what is essentially your own."

my art, gift art 

I made a 3d model and print for Xerxesdragon for Dragon Secret Santa this year.

spoilers! but also, build considerations 

@DogMotif@snouts.online For speed options: Trick Room and Tailwind are available in this format, and some of the Dynamax things like Max Airstream give speed up. So do consider those as well if they're available to your mons.

For damage output, I believe Choice Specs are also available before postgame, and Dynamax removes the choice restriction. Which is just gross and broken and gross and broken.

Good luck!

Pokemon ⚔️🛡, rental team share 

Another team just for fun, which you can grab from VS > Battle Stadium > Rental Teams.

This is after tweaking things a bit and testing offline. I also swapped in G-Max Lapras for those wanting to try it from Sword, given the insanely low chance of getting one from raids.

@typhlosion Chaser: someone actually bought this for me for the holidays a few years back.

A bunch of folks have expressed feeling powerless or not knowing what to do to help right now. This is a pretty good and succinct list, pulled from someone's thread on scotpol: twitter.com/HarryJosieGiles/st

assistance request, paypal link, (--) 

I know it's a lot to ask around the holidays but we really, really need help. Disability hasn't come through for me and the disability office isn't being cooperative, we're behind on rent and can barely keep food on the table much less pay for utilities. this end of the polycule is almost all disabled and unable to work and the only member who can work can't support us and herself, and she's doing her best regardless. Please, please help.

@noiob Also, I hope you have fun with it! I quite liked the ones I picked up from them, after I ironed out some of the technical issues.

Also, separately, best luck with Pwnagotchi if I correctly infer that's what you're building. :D

@noiob Ahhhh, that makes sense. Weird though that they didn't just glue the washer onto it from the other side, since they could have just inverted those parts.

Here's an example from the 4.2 model.

So... huh!

@noiob That is... ... ... huh.

I wonder what possessed them to make that one different. Heh!

@noiob Ah. I wonder how different it is from the generic HATs I have. (Larger ones have standoffs secured by washers.)

@noiob Is this a Waveshare model? Because that's weird.

Pokemon ⚔️🛡, rental team share, larger spoilers and build notes 

I mainly run Zacian - Toxtricity - Togekiss through PVE Battle Tower, and this set carried very easily to 50 consecutive wins. I rounded it out with Kommo-o for playing in Doubles or for good typing, and two defensive builds blatantly stolen from Smogon's Uber tier with balanced typing.
