>>51161815Legendaries, Mythicals, and Cross-Gen movesets definitely are arbitrary. None of those rules are actually based on anything besides GameFreak’s personal whim. They ban Pokemon like Calyrex-Grass and Phione for no other reason than just because.
Smogon bans things based on actual reasons and how those things being banned effect the game, which is the opposite of arbitrary.
>>51161817Light Clay is only banned in lower tiers, and has an actual reason behind it. Arbitrary doesn’t mean “Bans I don’t like”.
