    This is why Jynx should click Psychic in this matchup. A single Psychic puts Gengar in any quake range, and even a minimum roll means the Jynx is threatening a KO. Pretty hard for Gengar to stay in after that. So basically a 40% of winning the interaction, and even in the worst case scenario...

    I dont think there would have been much smogon RBY without freeze clause. You could look back through tournaments for rule sets I guess. I think you would have had no problem convincing the community that sim-enforced freeze clause was fine in the early 2000s. It was simply that we didnt have a...

    My memory is a bit hazy here, but Netbattle definitely didnt support RBY initially. At first it was just GSC, but the main community didnt move over until RS came out. But pretty sure Netbattle had a freeze clause for ADV and GSC, and RBY was played on either PBS or I think RBYBot may have taken...

    Rejected Sleep Clause, Freeze Clause and the ulterior failure of Smogon tiering

    Just in the interest of historical accuracy, I wanted to point out that there was no sim enforced freeze or sleep clause until Netbattle. The RBY and GSC eras were both played entirely without freeze clause and with a sleep clause where you simply lose if you sleep multiple pokemon. So it's...

    RNG in RBY Link Battles

    So by my maths there's 22 bits of entropy that you would need to recreate this on cart? The major stumbling block being the variable number of rng calls for damage rolls, but I'm guessing that probably isnt that hard to deal with, just annoying to code? If I were someone I would change...

    RNG Manipulation in Pokemon Showdown

    Pokemon with full knowledge of the rng sequence for both sides actually sounds like a really interesting way to play. Someone should make that as a pet mod.

    OU RBY OU Discussion Thread

    Having played with OHKOs legal, I agree they arent actually _that_ broken in RBY. Mostly because they are kinda bad. The OHKO ban was kinda brought back from GSC (where their brokenness probably peaked). But the main reason they arent that broken is that they arent very good (or werent, I'll...

    OU Why we should suspect test No Guard, DynamicPunch, or Machamp

    I can see an argument between a Machamp ban and a Dynamic Punch ban, but I think we should really rule out a no guard ban. Like, what is the thing that actually breaks the game here? Is it the trait that stops stone edge from missing, or is it the coin toss move that causes even more coin tosses?
