I was wondering if any updates or further discussion had been had on the subject of modifying the 'Species Clause' to not include regional variants. The initial thread that posed this question can be found here.
I saw some replies that seemed in favor of modifying the Clause, though I know the complexity of doing so isn't ideal. I believe that being able to use regional variants with different stats, typings, and abilities, would allow for more creative and involved teambuilding and strategy. For example, I would be EcStatic to run a Zapdos/Zapdos-G offensive core in SS OU.
I would just like to know where the council sits on this idea. Just want to reiterate that I am aware of possible complexity issues. But, if resolved, this could be a welcome change to the Showdown community. Thanks for your time!
