I know there is a (15 min iirc) time limit in VGC, and I was told is actually a 15 turns limit. However, I cant find it, is not in the policy for the tourney so I really dont know where else I can find it.
From the official rules:
Quote:
4. Time Limits
Tournament staff is responsible for running a timely event. To assist in this effort, POP has established guidelines for time limits during various portions of the event.
4.1. Pre-game Time Limit
Players will have 90 seconds to view their opponent’s team and select their Pokémon.
4.2. Mid-game Time Limit
Any mid-game effects, such as selecting a move or retreating Pokémon, are to take place within the 60 seconds allocated per turn. Note taking may only occur when not being prompted to select a move.
4.3. Match Time Limits
Single-game matches will be 20 minutes. For best-of-three matches, each game will be 20 minutes.
As far as I know, there's never been any sort of turn limit, so I'm not sure where the person who told you that got it from.

RNG is kind of like firing a gun. Why shoot blindly in every direction until you're lucky enough to hit the target when you can just take the time to aim properly and hit it with one shot?
