Thanks, I was having issues finding a "rules" thread other than this simple questions thread (been awhile since I was on smogon, took a pokemon break). If both players switch, is it still based on the pokemon coming out?

Maybe my Google fu is weak, but I was having trouble determining if two weather ability pokemon enter, which effect stays? Is it speed based?

For some reason, in the middle of a match, I started seeing everything from the other person's side. Their pokemon was in my position and it would only let me pick their pokemon. Really weird and not sure what caused it.

What makes Politoed so good in your eyes? Granted I'm only getting back into competitive gaming, but the 10 or so Politoeds I've faced all fell to OHKO's.

Does Baton Pass ignore entry hazards? Like, if I throw out Stealth Rock, they Baton Pass to pokemon A, does Pokemon A take damage from Stealth Rock?

I didn't say Spore twice. I said I Spore a pokemon to sleep, he switches, attacks my Breloom and "Effect Spore" ability puts it to sleep.

Thank you, I have a follow-up quick question. Say my Breloom uses Spore on the opponent. They switch out to a new pokemon, it physically attacks Breloom and Breloom's Effect Spore puts it to sleep. Do I lose based on the Sleep Clause? Or does this fall under the fact that I didn't use a move...

I have a stupidly simple question, and it's likely that I'm just having a bad night. Where's the thread that says what isn't allowed in OU?

I feel dumb. I forgot about the sleep clause!

I'm liking the aerial ace idea. However, how would I use it? With scarf, the crok is locked into whatever. The problem comes when breloom switches in off a faint, uses spore, then sub. Even if I switch off the spore, sub is up and he can spore from behind it and heal with toxic orb. Maybe this...

Introduction: I decided to try to build an all 5th gen team, because I wanted to try out some of the new pokemon and thought it would be fun. I may move away from all 5th gen at some point, but right now I want to stick to it. My team has been doing really well, and the only things that seem...

Was it because it saw an attractive female oddish?

You get bonus exp if the c-gear is active? Or, you could have something with explosion finish off audio, so it doesn't take as long.

This is more of a forum question, but did the server get updated? I can't find the search option any more to search for threads.

What is the link for this? I also don't know how to RNG, and couldn't really follow what was going on.
