Plates each have a certain effect tied to it which takes place when the Pokemon holding said Plate switches in. Effects range from setting up terrain, weather or even haze!
Each team has a "God" and five "Followers". The "God" is the Pokemon in the first slot of the team, it can be any Pokemon from Ubers to OU, the "Followers" must follow the OU banlist. The Followers must share a type with the God. If the God faints, the Follower's receive -1 priority on all of their moves.
