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.
I'll admit that my last post didn't have very solid arguments. I had been planning to post about NatDex's inclusion for a while now but never got around to it, and when I saw lost heros's post that the survey was gonna close tomorrow, I tried to write all of my thoughts in the span of an hour...
Posted a vr and some other resources in here

haha
Anyways I think NatDex should be added to WC. Me and a bunch of people got probably 1000 games in this tier in the past 2 weeks alone and have developed it to a point where it's most definitely playable in a team tour. Look at what we have:
A detailed list of every new move on old Pokemon...
Let's ban Tapu Koko in NatDex. Tapu Koko can run:
- Offensive Electrium Z (Charge + Wild Charge + Thunder + Roost)
- Defensive Electrium Z (Charge + Wild Charge/Thunder + Roost + Iron Defense)
- Fairium Z (Z-Gleam + CM + Thunder/Thunderbolt)
- Offensive Electric Seed (i run electroweb + tbolt...

Also, I hope that oldgen councils (and SV council but honestly idc about SV) actually do something about this. There is obviously clear support for species clause being looked into given the amount of engagement / reactions that my original post got, and the last thing I would want is that my...
It seems like the overarching argument for species clause proponents is that its removal would have no positive impact on competition. So I’ll give some reasons as to why it would:
1) Alternate Forms
On paper, there’s no reason why I shouldn’t be able to run Ursaluna and Ursaluna-Bloodmon...
NOTE: when I refer to “oldgen analyses” anywhere in this post, I am referring to every gen BEFORE ss. Idk how you do it ss but keep it up :blobthumbsup:

Tour Name: NatDex 1v1 No Repeats
Tour Host(s): pqs
Time Frame: weekly rounds + single elimination tour so I’d guess around 5 weeks after signups. I want this tour to happen ASAP so it overlaps with WC as minimally as possible.
Hosting Experience: Never hosted anything onsite, but I’ve been on...
I already argued this on discord but I’ll say it here: you don’t need three of the same Pokemon to add insane sets on each of them—what’s stopping me from running stall MMeta, Firium Dnite, and Conversion Electric Porygon-Z and giving my opponent an absolute stroke on preview trying to read the...

Let’s remove species clause in all gens! The generation of 1v1ers who were annoyingly conservative about banning / unbanning anything has basically disappeared at this point, so I feel like we can finally do this if we can commit to it!
The most common argument I see against removing species...
I love the idea of adding UU 1v1, but I think it's way too soon. As someone who actually played UU 1v1 when it was in PL (albeit I was 11 years old at the time), I don't have any good memories of my time in that slot, nor do I have any of watching other people. The problem, which occurred then...
