The issue here is the physical/special split being enforced. Same with abilities still being there.

I just started a nuzlocke on my Yellow and my god I forgot how different the mechanics were.

A gen 1 tournament with how the games are now would not be the same at all.

...isn't diancie 719? Why include it if its just saying that it's banned right after?

I wish they wouldn't just copy and paste the same rules but then put exceptions after, it makes it very confusing

No gen 1 only. Hype is kill.

Why the fuck would they show a bunch of Gen 1 Pokemon and say we're going old school, then...

6v6 and no items isn't enough for old school.
