Weird Sun and Moon update questions; Some spoilers, I guess?

So there are a bunch of changes and stuff that happened in sun and moon and I wound up with some possibly unusual questions as a result.

I saw some discussion about like, the stat adjustments some pokemon received in sun and moon and how it would relate to PTU. While at first I applauded these previously low-power pokemon getting a bonus, some problems arose. Looking, for instance, at the top of the list, Arbok gained +10 base attack in the games and that translates to a +1 attack in PTU - but in ptu this actually becomes a detriment, as that +1 attack causes it to no longer qualify for underdog's strength.

The other question is a bit spoilery and involves how Zygarde's been going? Not in like, stats and dog form and giant z-mechas and such; more interested in plot and how it affects Blessed & Damned and the gifts it offers and stuff. Zygard seems to be less a god killer and more like some kind of... earth guardian druid thing, made of cells that photosynthsize. I kind of want to play a character gifted by this version of zygarde, but not really sure yet where to start. Anyone got any ideas?

There are quite a few things that I am curious about how they are going to be implemented. Have any of the devs mentioned anything about Z-moves?

Will calling for help become a thing in the tabletop? Will they expand on the riding gear and custom saddles/harnesses?

I mean, you can always do it already. Just have other Pokémon arrive. This isn't like the games where you're normally locked into just fighting a single wild Pokémon at once.

If it became implemented for everything I do think combat would drag on, though. Well, even moreso.

I doubt it. They might introduce RidePager, but they didn't ever specify that you needed Strength to move boulders, so I don't see new iteration hms making it into anything official either.

Obviously going to get changed. Look at Mega-Drain - Leech Life's DB will go up, but it's Frequency will go down.

I already made the change - it seemed simple enough to just make it a DB 8 EOT move. Bam, now all of a sudden it's actually usable, especially on Bugs.

Poor X-Scissor....Maybe make X-Scissor to be a high crit chance move to differentiate it from Leech Life? I wouldn't suggest this except for the fact that Leech Life is such an easily accessible move to a lot of Pokemon as a TM....

Perhaps X-Scissor could be a Pass move, sort of like a Bug-typed Slash?
