Ill reply for X lol. PM means "private message", and DM means "direct message". They're both the same thing, and essentially mean to talk via text or other means of private communication instead

Right now, we're just collecting a list of the threads we've checked through. That should be a good enough indication of where the old posts still remain, if we ever need them again.
Thanks for offering to help -- right now, the most helpful thing you can do is just keep flagging threads with incomplete answers on them, if/when you come across them.

Nope, my parents don't trust it, sadly.

I do, yes. You've been quite helpful, and that would only improve when you're able to edit the site.

Covid-19 may be pressuring you, but here's a music I recreated. All credit goes to Toby Fox, its incomplete, but hope it will help you withstand the pandemic. I finally did it. I finally made it. After hours of watching youtube lyrics of undertales, I finally, did it.

It depends on what teams/strategies you're talking about. In general, I'd actually say no.
For example, if I have a new alt that I want to climb with, then I am going to play a HO team so I can quickly win lower ladder games (and because it's more fun). I wouldn't use a stall team like I would if I really wanted to push high onto the leaderboard, because stall takes forever to play and it isn't needed against players who aren't as good.
There are also some small optimisations for the higher ladder that you probably won't get much mileage from in the lower ladder. For example, Safeguard Volcarona became popular in the higher ladder in recent months because it matches favourably against stall and slow balance. But in the lower ladder, you play against far more offence teams, so you might use a different move for the time being.
You should definitely still trust what high-level players are using over what everyone else uses, though. The only reason they do this is because they know what they can get away with -- it's not actually better at a high level.

Re movesets: Yeah that's part of the 'audit' we're doing on moveset threads right now. We're not sure what the final solution to the dated moveset threads is going to be, and it's something we're going to run by the community soon. We might decide to retire the old threads and post new ones, in which case we might keep the old answers like an archive. So we're hanging onto the links so we're prepared for anything. We only really need to record which threads we've been though, though.
