Here is Baton Pass as it stands:
[BOX]Baton Pass: The Pokemon focuses all of its energies into a white aura that maintains its current state. This energy holds all of the information on the Pokemon's stat increases and decreases as well as whether it is in a state of confusion or other temporary ailments. If this Pokemon touches a teammate it can pass those bonuses and mental state onto them instantly.

Attack Power: -- | Accuracy: -- | Energy Cost: 10 | Attack Type: Other | Effect Chance: -- | Contact: N/A | Typing: Normal | Priority: 0 | CT: Passive[/BOX]

A proposal was put up to update Baton Pass, that got five yes votes without discussion:
[BOX]Baton Pass: The Pokemon focuses all of its energies into a white aura that maintains its current state. This energy holds all of the information on the Pokemon's stat increases and decreases as well as whether it is in a state of confusion or other temporary ailments. This move has two distinctive uses:

Baton Pass [Switch] (Switch=OK Only): The user is sent back to its trainer's Poke Ball at the end of the round. The Pokemon that is switched in to replace the user is chosen by the player from their remaining Pokemon, however the trainer that commanded Baton Pass [Switch] must attack first the next round. The replacement gains the same temporary status changes (Such as stat boosts/drops, confusion, etc.) that the user had upon entry.

Baton Pass [Pass] (Doubles+ Only): The user can pass on all its temporary status changes (Such as stat boosts/drops, confusion, etc.) to an active teammate. The teammate will gain all temporary status changes that the user had, and all temporary status changes the user had are removed.

Attack Power: -- | Accuracy: -- | Energy Cost: 10 | Attack Type: Other | Effect Chance: -- | Contact: N/A | Typing: Normal | Priority: 0 | CT: Passive[/BOX]

Council members will only vote on one thing, with a single vote conducted: Should we adopt the proposed changes to Baton Pass or not?

Your options are:
[BOX]Adopt the proposed Baton Pass
Retain the current Baton Pass
[/BOX]
If the former is chosen, then Baton Pass gets an update. Otherwise, no update if the latter is chosen.

First to 4 votes is majority, time to vote!

Adopt the proposed Baton Pass

Yes I know it has no effect in Singles Switch=KO, but tbh, anything would be better than the current version.
 
Well there are other moves that have no effect in Singles Switch=KO. Helping Hand, for example.

Adopt the proposed Baton Pass
