>>30598823>I can't use some Pokemon because some underage autists banned them for shitty reasons.>I can'tYes you can, just don't play with people using smogon rules or people who can't make exceptions that smogon won't (Blaze Blaziken.)
Most of the ubers people complain getting banned about are super unfun to face anyway because they just solo teams by themselves.
>>30599034It's to avoid a precedent. There's no singular broken element to a pokemon, and realistically you could balance most pokemon by not permitting them to use a single ability, move, item, etc.
It's retarded in a lot of other situations, though.
>the discussion on baton pass going on in the PR forum>obvious solution is just ban speed passing, or stat passing as a whole if that somehow becomes a problem and preserve drypassing that dozens of things can do>"no we don't do that it's a precedent it's really complex etc. etc.">DrizzleSwim, the existing BP clause, GSC PerishTrap, the new ubers Sleep+Shadow Tag clause, etc.>mfw they just have PTSD from the full BP chains and want the move gone out of spite>mfw stat and speed passing aren't even using in tournaments anymore anyway and it's a complete non-issue
