This Pet Mod seeks to make a metagame where only Pokemon with alternate forms exist, all alternate forms are separate, unique species, and they are all balanced together for one single metagame. This will be achieved via slates featuring the alternate forms in question. Specifically what we mean by alternate forms, are ones that Showdown officially recognizes in the builder. So we will not have 30 differing Alcremie, nor will we have 12 different Vivillon (but we will have three!).
A Disclaimer: To avoid redundancy, we will not be covering the following for an indeterminate time period.
- Most Prevolutions*
- Arceus
*Pikachu is exempt from this.

What Separates it from Other Forms:
Submission Rules
Seeing as we are dealing with Pokémon with alternate forms, certain liberties can be taken in regards to submissions. As Pokémon from Ubers to ZU will be integrated into the mod, differing slates will have options for you to buff, nerf or keep a Pokémon as is. When Pokémon's form changes are tied to specific items, abilities and / or moves, the effects will be reworked to work independent of form changes. Different forms are free to have distinct movepools, abilities and stats.
Voting Phase
Voting phase lasts for around a day or two. In the voting phase, users vote for their preferred submissions and the winning submissions are added to the role compendium and spreadsheet.
The voting format is as follows:
Role in question: 1st preferred option, 2nd preferred option, 3rd preferred option.
Miscellaneous
This Pet Mod is based in the National Dex, meaning Nat Dex moves are fair game. Be careful to note that when balancing your submissions. However, Z-Moves and Mega Evolutions are banned, so please do not attempt to use them!

Note: These self voting rules and the explanation are from good user lyd, slightly adapted to fit this pet mod
If you want to vote for yourself now, it gets slightly more complicated. You can always keep voting for yourself as second, but you can change the order a bit, for as long as the number of self-votes equals 2x the number of submissions you made. Let's use some examples to make it more understandable:
Stallbreaker: Yoshiblaze, Lyd, Ludicrousity
Special Wall: Ludicrousity, Lyd, Yoshiblaze
Defensive Pivot: Ludicrousity, Lyd, Yoshiblaze
So this voting format is good, cuz' Lyd voted for himself as second three times, and when you add everything up, he gave himself 6 votes, which is fine, as it is exactly the number of submissions he made for the slate x2. However, say he liked his Stallbreaker submission a lot, and he really wants it to win, he can play around with his votes a little bit:
Stallbreaker: Lyd, Yoshiblaze, Ludicrousity
Special Wall: Ludicrousity, Lyd, Yoshiblaze
Defensive Pivot: Ludicrousity, Yoshiblaze, Lyd
So to make his Stallbreaker first vote, he moved his Defensive Pivot self-vote to last. Makes sense, right? And when you add up the votes, 3 + 2 + 1 = 6 which is exactly what he wants. Let's say that he likes his Special Wall and Defensive Pivot submissions more, and he didn't like his Stallbreaker submission too much. He can do this:
Stallbreaker: Yoshiblaze, Ludicrousity, G-Luke
Special Wall: Lyd, Ludicrousity, Yoshiblaze
Defensive Pivot: Lyd, Ludicrousity, Yoshiblaze
3 + 3 adds up to six, so he's good to that. Small note that this can't be done if he made no Stallbreaker submission because if that was the case, the number of submissions he made x2 would actually end up as 4, which isn't enough. Also, had he only made a single submission, he'd always have to self-vote as #2 or lower because making only one submission gives him only two self-vote points. We hope that was clear, if you had any trouble to understand this, feel free to PM anyone from the council and we'll explain it as best as we can.
