That really should go without saying. Unreleased ability = hacked = disqualified. Same reason they don't mention Keldeo/Meloetta/Genesect.

Age of Kings · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:32:53 PM

this is going to be such a clusterfuck, but it will be an enjoyable one

evan · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:38:48 PM

Dear Mike Liesik,

Thank you. Expanded regionals, Canadian nats, no ubers, all gens, AND no Dark Void?

VGC 2012 looks like the best metagame yet.

Sincerely,
evan

You're welcome evan.

This looks promising. Gogo Weather and friends.

DM · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:49:12 PM

this is going to take me forever to learn, ugh

lucariojr · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:52:04 PM

yes yes yes no DV

kinda odd they would do that though but oh well!

PungentFruit · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:53:05 PM

No Dark Void, worst rules ever ;D

Ok finally we can call GBU VGC 2012

Pippy · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:54:16 PM

No Dark Void? YES!!!!!

Shinyweavile · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:54:17 PM

YEAHHHHH NO DARK VOID!!!

Otherwise, I sorta expected most of the other rules, so I began preparing a team with and without ubers. TIME TO SEE IT IN ACTION!!!!

Joel · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:55:09 PM

Maybe I overlooked it, but I'm guessing it's still double battles, or might they venture off in to 6v6 triples?

it says its double battles

Shinyweavile · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:57:43 PM

Yeah Joel, it says right over HERE:

Maestrol55 · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:58:47 PM

I approve of these rules.

**PK Gaming** · Sep 19th, 2011, 5:59:44 PM

Ok pardon me for noobing this thread up, but isn't Darkrai banned anyway? I guess this rule specifically applies to Smeargle, it must have been pretty fucked up to get outright banned...

Psyched to see that the GBU Doubles ruleset was supported.

lucariojr · Sep 19th, 2011, 6:00:29 PM

now all we need is locations

Joel · Sep 19th, 2011, 6:01:32 PM

>_< My bad. The Source link wouldn't work for me on my Wii, and I didn't see OmegaDonut's OP having any battle type specified.

Kinneas · Sep 19th, 2011, 6:03:38 PM

I was hoping they would incorporate Anime Style Battling but there's always next year I suppose.

Smeargle can sketch Dark Void, which dominated previous VGCs

zero2exe · Sep 19th, 2011, 6:05:23 PM

so is there any confirmation wether jirachi not being on the banlist was a typo or not?

6-Dimension · Sep 19th, 2011, 6:10:39 PM

Pretty nice rules. I've never really played VGC, but this pretty wide, open format seems like the perfect time to get into it. Definitely gonna play this year.

***Jibaku**** · Sep 19th, 2011, 6:11:24 PM

Time to begin cranking up on this I suppose.

Also lol at Jirachi being missing.

Firestorm · Sep 19th, 2011, 6:22:06 PM

Jirachi is banned for those who haven't seen it yet:

Error. Will correct shortly.
