I have a question then, if sleep is then fully banned, how will this exactly work? Will rest, yawn and relic song be banned? Same for abilities that can cause sleep like effect spore, if so wouldn’t this both affect abusers and the healthy part of the mechanic (yawn, rest)?

The policy we have as I understand it is to stay as close to the cartridge as possible, so if sleep is uncompetetive or not is then deemed irrelevant considering this policy as it is part of the game and has been since the start of pokemon. Banning sleep in itself as a mechanic no matter how...

Your question is irrelevant as smogon doesn’t follow all the cartridge mechanics/rules. Doubles is the main format of pokemon and it’s not hard to see that certain mechanics and rules for doubles/cartridge would be problematic in a 6v6 singles competetive match. I also told you that I think...

I’ve never had problems with the sleep clause being implemented, singles and doubles are very different from eachother and that should be accounted for. However, I don’t agree with banning sleep as a whole as I don’t find it problematic enough to be an issue, never have and certainly don’t do...

Banning sleep moves is hilarious to me, what are we exactly trying to do? Forcing the game to become as skillful as possible by removing and manipulating people’s experience with rng to jump on the banwave? Rng is a part of pokemon, it’s what makes it exciting to watch, it is the charm of...

Here’s a sun setter for those who want to run hyper offense together with sun. I’ve had fairly good results with this Ninetales set and would highly recommend it as an option over Torkoal if one would like to go more on the offensive side of things. Ninetales @ Eject Pack Ability: Drought...

I have no clue why shaymin-s or lugia are even discussed in here for potential drops. shaymin-s would flinch everything to death, it would force covert cloak on everything and warp the meta around it itself. as far as lugia goes, hazards + knock off support with a whirlwind + psychic noise set...

man is this game a lot of fun, also on a sidenote, hisuian lilligant is probably the best pokemon in this game by a landslide, victory dance is batshit broken as it buffs all defenses and your attack while on top of that giving a 50% boost to your move/attack. It’s incredibly helpful in catching...

this has to be one of the most insufferable things i’ve read here in awhile.
