Okay so, talking on IRC with some people we figured it might be time to revisit this, especially seeing as no real consesus was reached here. I think (and from talking to others I'm not the only one) that you should be able to use multiple Rotoms on the same team.

The main points in lifting the species clause limitation on them:

Different Typing

Pretty obvious here, different typing means wildy different checks and counters.

Different Movepools
Yes its only one move but
Quote:
<@LonelyNess> if they aren't the exact same
<@LonelyNess> they're different
pretty much sums up the point I'm trying to make here.

Arguments against:
Same Stats:
I don't think it would be fair to use this as the sole argument to keep species clause in regards to the rotoms because you can make the same case for all the 100 pokes.

It'd be nice if for at least now we could try and focus on the rotom problem instead of saying "how would this effect deoxys, giratina, arceus and shaymin", because looking at this thread it'll probably turn into a massive circlejerk again if we aren't focusing on one thing to start with...we can deal with that problem (if needed) after we come to a solution for this one.
