Hey all :)
I am currently getting back into competitive online battling in SwSh, and I am starting with the Battle Tower (Singles). Unfourtunately, I am kinda bad at competitive, so I went to Fizz's wall, and said this:
~~
Hello Fizz :D Wanted to ask a question, can I ask these two questions? I wanted your opinion on these. I don't know what to name them, but they would be similar to and igtq, like what is a good in game team for sword and shield, but something like
"What is a good team for the SwSh Battle Tower Singles format" and same with doubles. The question itself is a little wordy but i can work on that. i was just thinking that the question itself might be something good to have on Pokebase maybe? i think that if i did it without saying i would get an answer like "you will be better off asking here link to smogon or something idk. if you say yes i might need a little help doing the formatting and stuff, as there have been problems in the last few days with wrong formatting for some moveset questions.
thanks again in advance for helping :3
like an ongiong thread

I hope that explains it all :) Fizz came back to me with this reply.

> Having that question effectively commits us to allowing a similar thread for every game (and different battle facility, etc). I'm not opposed to it, but I think you should suggest it on Meta to see if other people think it would be good as well.
> It's a balancing act of how useful the threads would be and the bother they might cause if they're bumped up as often as the moveset threads.

So here I am! What do you think of adding threads for all of the battle towers and such, for singles and doubles? I am not sure how many there are, but I think that it could be good, maybe even add a new tag (a bit like msq/lcmsq/igtq)?
Feel free to give your opinions, thanks! (Hope you're on board with it :D)

Edit: These would not be posted randomly at all, they can be asked by ONE person only to avoid confusion, maybe a mod or something; I would be happy to do it though, as they are asked ONCE and only come up again when a new generation adds a new battle facility. These would not be posted in RMT, because I guess it is not about rating teams, and doesn't really fit in. In RMT, you give a team + explanation, it gets rated. These threads are like moveset questions and they fit in Pokebase; a question is given ("What is a good team for the Battle Tree" or something like that. Title needs work), and people answer with THEIR teams, so not on the RMT.
Hope I helped!
Edit 2: I finally did it! After a couple months because (a) I'm icompetent, (b) I'm busy with school/exams/revision and all that, (c) I only have 3 brain cells, and (d) all of the above, I have added all of the bftqs up until Generation 8! It took way longer than it should have done because of being inactive, but I am super happy I got it done nonetheless. Thank you for answering the questions, I really appreciate that I was able to do this! I will update the Generation 8 question when BDSP comes out, and if Legends Arceus does have something (maybe not though), that will probably go in Generation 8; And when Generation 9 eventually comes out, I can create a new one for that too.
Thanks again!
