Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Melmetal may be the only true S rank and he's on almost every team. The Landorus of this meta. Mega Alakazam, I don't know if he deserves to be S rank. See plenty of top teams without it, like the team niceboy69 made where he got the number 1 GXE which uses Mega Gyarados. But I've never seen a...
Fake Out, U-turn and Protect are present. I don't see why there's an unrestricted one and not a Normal rules one. I don't want to play the AG one because it will be very slow and filled with Mewtwos but I'd play one with Normal rules.
Another bug in Let's Go I just found. Eevee's Sappy Seed, the leech seed effect part, works on Grass types when it's not supposed to.

Most of the bugs have been fixed except for this and Sparkly Swirl not healing when it hits a...
There are 2 modes on cart, Normal rules and No restrictions. Normal rules is level 50, no candies. No restriction is any level and any amount of candies. Theoretically there could also be a Normal rules AG on showdown which allowed multiple Mewtwo since thats how the Normal rules is on cart. It...
Let's Go bugs. Non gen 1 mega pokemon are allowed if you choose their mega forms. But not if you just choose their base forms and make it hold a mega stone for some reason. No non gen 1 pokemon should be allowed except meltan and melmetal. You're allowed to have both starter pikachu and starter...
Well I see you all made no restrictions have no rules at all. So you can have 3 mewtwos and ohko moves. I expected No restrictions to just allow any level and have candies but otherwise have all the normal smogon rules. Just like OU is Normal rules with a bunch of smogon rules. I expected the No...
So there are two sets of rules. Normal Rules and No Restrictions. Normal Rules puts everything to level 50 and removes Candy Boost. It's still 6 v 6 singles. And unrestricted lets you have any levels and candy boosts. So as long as you play by normal rules then everything won't be bulky.
Where was this. I saw a long time ago they said no battle spot. Not no ranked online.
It's a guess to say that there won't be any ranked online. Also the Articunos didn't use Mind Reader, Mind Reader is useless, you can just switch out.
Whats wishlisting. I just said maybe the game will have ranked online. We know it has online battles so maybe it will have ranked online. If it doesn't then you can still play without any rules in which ohko moves will be allowed.
VGC is different than 6 v 6 singles. Also Sheer Cold Articuno was pretty good in Kanto Classic in Gen 6. Even saw some good Horn Drill Seakings. (3rd highest ranked Kanto Classic match https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/kantoclassic-333077633) There's no Sheer Cold here so people will have to...
Having already watched some LGPE similar matches, I feel that the game will be filled with Stall because of Rest. Which makes me lose interest in playing it competitively. And this game will be bulkier as we saw from the boosted hp charizard and there will be less boosting moves. Only Swords...
