If there should be a less restrictive version of Species Clause, the one to go for should definitely be: Multiple forms of the same pokemon are allowed as long as they are tiered separately. After all, on Smogon we already have been making a distinction in saying that some forms are basically...

If you want to evolve it in Pokémon Go (the only current gen game where it is available), you need to win 10 raid battles while having it as your buddy. Edit: ninja'd by a second

I do think that Fighting should be immune to Thunder Wave, as, unlike other status moves, Thunder Wave specifically cannot hit Ground types.

A real Pokémon master breeds with a 6x31IV Ditto.

If someone still needs Continental ones, please add my wife 0685 8759 8361 and myself 4473 8169 8143.

But, whether we like it or not, RNG is part of playing this game competitively. Critical hits, random side effects, full paralysis etc. are all RNG elements that are part of the game. If you feel that any RNG is bad for the competitiveness of the game, you should want to ban all of this. Of...

Well, the point with OHKO moves at least is that they are extremely high risk high reward. That is, they do not see that much serious use in BSS and such, because the probability of working is quite low. However, if a OHKO move hits, you surely lose 1 mon, which can be game changing. Other...

Actually, Sentret, Ledyba and Spinarak are not common at all in Johto. In Gold and Silver, you can catch Ledyba and Spinarak in only 3 routes and Sentret in only 1 route (in Johto, also 1 in Kantho) and they are all restricted to certain times of day. In addition, they are all used only used by...

How is this scenario any different from a regular lure? To use the Volcarona vs Heatran example, how is it different from this: +1 252 SpA Volcarona Scorching Sands vs. 252 HP / 232+ SpD Heatran: 332-392 (86 - 101.5%) -- 87.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock In fact, it might even better for...

Don't you mean 1 073 741 824 (=32^6) combinations?

Just to clarify, I mentioned the option that teams without means to touch Shedinja should always be rejected, independently of the opponent's team. The quotes you referred to mention rejecting teams based on the opponent's team. Yes, it is totally unreasonable to reject these teams only if the...

I think what lucas tesch is trying to say is that any team that has zero ways to deal with Shedinja should be rejected, regardless of whether the opponent has one or not. Or maybe he isn't, but at least it would be a not unreasonable solution to his problem.

Because there exists plenty of stuff that is uncompetitive, in the sense that all it does is add RNG, such as Sand Attack, Confuse Ray or Attract, but which nobody seriously considers banning precisely because these moves do not help often enough to actually win games by using them.

The other way around. It doesn't say it gets the extra boosts, but it actually gets them. E.g. if you have +1attack then the game treats it as if it were +2attack. But for the purpose of stuff like Baton Pass it is still a single boost.

So Indeedee are tiered separately, but Meoestic together?

In addition, most starter trios aren't consistent with when and if they gain a secondary type anyway (e.g. in gen 1 Bulbasaur being double typed all the way, Squirtle fully mono typed and Charmander gaining a secondary type upon reaching stage 3). Only gen 2, 6 and 8 are consistent which is a...

Cool, could you prove the continuum hypothesis (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuum_hypothesis) for me then?

Where do you get the idea that puberty blockers are being given to children who do not actively ask for them and not after very careful consideration by healthcare professionals?

Any proof that such a thing actually happens?
