    We're going to restructure the forums in question, but we first need to decide how we want to do it. I suggested that Kyle posted this thread because I was not sure of what people would prefer. For now it sounds like there should be a Mainstream Switch Pokémon Games... with a subforum for the 8th generation, one for the 9th and one for Legends: Arceus?


    Don't forget we've also got Let's Go Eevee & Let's Go Pikachu; as I mentioned already, they're considered 7th generation games. While they introduced Meltan & Melmetal (#808 & #809 respectively in the National Pokedex), they were also the first Pokemon games released on the Switch (aka before Sword & Shield). On that note, just to avoid potential confusion, maybe we should also rename the sub-forums of DS/3DS Pokemon games as such (old on the left, new on the right):

    Fourth Generation -> Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Heart Gold, Soul Silver
    Black/White -> Black, White, Black 2, White 2
    Sixth Generation -> X, Y, Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire
    Seventh Generation -> Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, Ultra Moon

    Edit: I also definitely agree with you and Christen on the team rating thing Gabi; I mean, they were pretty common in TPM's early days, but hardly anyone rates a team posted here (or even a single Pokemon for that matter) nowadays. One of the few exceptions was when I decided to rate Link's Tyrantrum from Ultra Moon; when it comes to rating (or even coming up with) a moveset for a Pokemon, I'm so glad we've got Smogon with their many great suggestions for movesets, and as some of you may know (or perhaps didn't know), I received some Pokemon from them in GTS trades in the past. That was where I went to look for a better moveset to suggest for Link to try for his Tyrantrum.
