As many of you will know, Smogon has a section on their forum where they show off the most viable/most "meta" sets and give a bit of info on them, alternate EV spreads if any, good teammates, and their controls. / counters for each format in all existing generations.
The truth is that I see the competitive assistance section within the PokéMMO forum being wasted and not very active, being able to do something similar to what smogon has been doing for a long time.
All of us competitive players are fully aware of how different the PokéMMO meta is from the black and white meta (and any other meta), so it would be necessary to show an analysis of all viable Pokémon in a given game. since in the game it only shows the percentage of use, the most used item, the most used skill and little else, but nothing like moveset, ev spread, etc. is specified.

How would something like this fit in this forum?

But how would this work?
It would be impossible in my opinion to do this unless a new section is implemented in the forum, where fixed editors or the same staff publish the information about these pokémon thanks to contributions from players who provide information about the mons. And this contributions from the community for the publications of this hypothetical section. . they can be made in the current competitive assistance or in another section of the forum.
As for tier changes
It might seem like a problem here that there is no consistent metagame and we have tier changes, and this was what made it difficult for me to think of a way to implement this function, that a mon goes from UU to OU or from NU to OU, it could complicate everything, but I thought of the following.
Let's do a hypothetical case where this section of the forum is implemented, and suppose that, I don't know, Empoleon for example, goes up from UU to OU.
This would leave an Empoleon UU review tab on the ''Dex'' forum entirely useless, and might even confuse new players, but it would be solved by simply archiving that ''UU'' section of in this hypothetical Empoleon .
Conclusion:
Adding this to the forum would be quite useful, and would help both players who are new to competitive to start with already having an idea of the most common sets of each viable mon, and players who are already competitive but want to start another tier, as well as helping Old players who want to come back after a long time without playing and have a hard time adapting to the new metagames.
