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.
Custap's back in the spotlight once again. Custap Berry had a suspect nearly two years ago where it narrowly avoided a ban. However, despite this, it's still been a very controversial element in the metagame on forums, on discord, and on the survey. Proponents of a ban on Custap Berry claim it's...
Good morning gamers!
After discussion between old gen leaders and TLs, going into 2026 1v1 will have standardised requirements for old gen suspect tests (gen 5-8). Going forward, the following groups of people will be eligible to vote in old gen suspect tests:
Members of the gen's tiering...
I didn't realise this wasn't announced, my bad! bern and neomon stepped down from their council positions.
Also, lost heros has been appointed to co-TL
I don't have my usual essay ready, nor do I have a silly joke where I pretend someone's getting demoted when in reality it's a promotion. Truth is, without lost heros I wouldn't have been able to do half the things I did this year, and it's high time we gave him the keys to this funny 1v1 car so...
Parts of this post are a bit rushed due to my wrist, I'm recovering but I can't afford to spend an eternity caring about details and phrasing yet
The stars align for me to post about a bunch of stuff at the same time so bear with me, I don't normally get involved with tour hosting that much but...
This is the tour policy thread, posts that are not tour policy will be deleted, low quality one liners will also be deleted, it's grow up o clock. Also we're not canceling world cup

Forseeable inactivity Don't let that 1v1TL title fool you. I can certainly bring team spirit but you can certainly get better players in basically every UM...
Everybody welcome Indi01 to the 1v1 council!
With that, it's time for me to step down from my position as a voting member. Over the past year I've made sure to keep up with SV enough to be able to vote reasonably, but I don't have it in me to be even close to the level of skill and investment...
I learned my lesson from the survey post and will not write a long essay on ZardY and will keep it short instead. Like radu said, we shouldn't come at this from a perspective of "should ZardY have been banned" and instead need to treat it like any unban. With that in mind, I think ZardY is...
Before I get to the survey results I'm just gonna get this out of the way: I injured my wrist just after the survey closed and I had to take some time off. I'm not recovered and writing this post is probably ill-advised (note from the future: Yup that was a bad idea), so I'll continue to take a...
