Fresh Takes V4
Welcome to the fourth iteration of Fresh Takes, a pet mod originally started in Generation 7! In this mod, slates of 3 pokemon will be given new "Takes" so that they can be successful in Generation 8 OU.V1 by Finland

Fresh Takes V4
Each slate, 3 "Takes" and 3 Pokemon will be posted. Each Take will have a rule for the Pokemon's Type, Stats, Abilities, and Movepool, all 4 of which MUST be followed.
Submissions:
You are only allowed to submit each pokemon once, but you are able to submit 1 "Take" as many times as you want.
EX: The three pokemon are
Take 1: filler
Take 2: filler
Take 3: filler
You are allowed to submit
You are not allowed to submit
The conditions of each take will vary slate by slate, but the general mindset for each Take will be:
Type: Being single/double typed, and keeping/changing the original type
Stats: Placing certain bounds on the base stats that the pokemon can have (there is no BST cap, but remember to keep the pokemon you submit balanced for Gen 8 OU)
Abilities: There is no general rule, but some slates may be based on the Gen 8 Singles Ability Rankings
Movepool: Adding or removing moves, which can also be based on type changes
Custom Moves and Abilities will only be allowed if the specific take allows for them. If the take does not specifically mention them, you are not able to submit them.
Voting:
Voting will be based on the Pokemon, not the "Take"
For Example, you would vote for
You will vote for 3 of each pokemon in order: 1st gets 3 points, 2nd gets 2, and 3rd gets 1.
For self-votes, you get (2 * the # of pokemon you submitted) points in terms of self votes.
If you submitted 3 pokemon, you would get 6 total self vote points.
If you submitted 2 pokemon, you would get 4 total self vote points.
If you submitted 1 pokemon, you would get 2 total self vote points.
This is a full reboot of Fresh Takes, meaning that prior pokemon will not be returning (rip fire/normal slowbro).
This meta will be based on Gen 8 OU (not NatDex), but some snapped pokemon will be included in submission phases. Megas, Z-Moves, and snapped Moves will not be in the meta.
