Hey, guys! I've seen the resounding success of many OMs here on the forums. I am hoping to have another successful OM created - Mergemons.
The concept for this metagame is simple. It is similar to regular OU. All stats are the same, all types are the same, all abilities are the same, and all movepools are the same – except for one difference. All fully evolved Pokémon are paired up with another Pokémon. These two Pokémon can now use any move combination from not just their movepool, but their partner’s movepool as well. This means if Azumarill, to give an example, was paired up with Alakazam, Azumarill can now use not just any move it can possibly learn, but any move Alakazam can possibly learn as well.
Plus, any formerly illegal Generation 5 move combo is now legal. This means Spikes+Sleep Powder Roserade or even Belly Drum+Aqua Jet Azumarill! However, this doesn't mean the Gen 2 event moves like Lovely Kiss Snorlax.
The list of Pokemon pairings will be shown below.

Where can you play this metagame? Simple. You can play it anywhere on Showdown with the Custom Game option. I usually hang out on Joim's Lab to play it, however.
So try it out! Get out there! And remember: Merge is better!
