If trick room is so devastating, then how comes I barely see this move being used at all, even in doubles anymore where it is effectively twice as effective. This could really sit in the same boat as rain dance + swift swim or something, and that really isnt that OP with 8 turns. Trick room is devastating but it's actually the short time it goes on that doesnt let it be popular. In singles yes, it is not too great, but if you were to discuss doubles it definitly changes many things. In doubles, the game are waay shorter and setting up trick room is much easier (with fake out, mental herb, follow me...) And the pokemon that function under trick room have generally great stats with speed as drawback ( tr making it up). 8 turns can actually be at least half the length of a doubles match, so giving tr teams dominance for half the game is plain scary. some pratical example are spore amoongus, camepurt, calm mind cresselia. Weather has 4 different versions so it's relativly easier to fight. adding to that that generally weather is for 2-3 pokemon in the team, such as venu char, swampert/kingdra/ludi with poli , tyranitar with excadrill/garchomp mega, unlike tr that's a playstyle and affects all pokemon in game I hope I sorta made it clear why this item is overpowered

I don't really see how having 4 different versions of weather make it easier to fight, as effectively you would have to have something to counter each version. But yeah, in conjunction with a trick-room summoning fake-ability (I think there is one), this would be pretty OP since you don't even have a way of stopping it before it happens.

Rejected 1/2
At first I liked it but I realized it'd be too good, esp since we have an Auto TRoom ability now.

lol, I play Doubles OU, Trick Room is way up on high ladder. I also use Trick Room. Trick Room is anti meta in DOU, and I do not like this item. Prolly why GF did not release an item that increases the amount of turns Trick Room has. Overall, I would not like to see this item boosting Trick Room as 8 turns is a lot of TR in DOU.

Just because an item is super good in a tier doesn't mean that it shouldn't be taken into consideration. Even if it is really good in DOU, it can just as easily be banned. Tagging Galom and Ace for opinions.
