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...- Hipmonlee

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...- Hipmonlee

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.

RNG in RBY Link Battles
So by my maths there's 22 bits of entropy that you would need to recreate this on cart?

If I were someone I would change...- Hipmonlee

RNG Manipulation in Pokemon Showdown

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?- Hipmonlee
