Breloom is great since alot of things will be weak to either grass or fighting. Rock types will be both so less worry about weakness berries.

Worth noting that aside gunk shit Greninja, there are no steel or poison types so anything can be toxic poisoned.

According to Serebii, the English site says Singles while Japanese PGL and Download Rules say Doubles.

Joe has pointed out how many mistakes the English PGL keeps making so it's probable the Japanese side is right

It doesn't seem like there's anything restricting protein.
Won't that subvert the entire point of the tournament?

It's an item that gives 10 Attack EVs to a Pokemon. But I think he means Protean.

Means Protean-Greninja just needs Ice, Poison, and Water moves to deal with all the common types across the board, with its final move being whatever one wants.

It's gonna be FUN. It's a guess who's got the Weakness Policy, and trying to figure out a way around the weakness berry you think your opponent is holding, or this
>>32933076

There's also Tyranitar, if you don't make a sand team.

Definitely weird, I think it might be kinda fun. Tbh I like the random rules sets on these online comps. Nice change up from the norm and lets other Pokémon get a shot at being effective.

Have fun doing mediocre damage without a Life Orb or surviving a hit without a Focus Sash
I doubt Greninja will be that good here, it's offensive stats are subpar, even with the Protean boost.

I'm more worried about Tyranitar (which I think will be the dominating mon), Hydreigon, the Latis and Terrakion. Maybe Breloom too.

Damn, no Steel types so no STAB Steel moves. Looks like Togekiss will be really useful.
Only Tapu is Bulu so that'll fuck up sand teams with Ground type users.
Weather setters are Tyranitar, Gigalith, and Abomasnow, so a lotta sand, and you might be able to use Unnerve T-Tar.

>>32933163
I can see Greninja and Decidueye using the Pledges to screw with all the sand teams.

You don't need to know them off the top of your head. Serebii already has a list of eligible Pokemon on their online competition page. Or you can just check this anon's post >>32932330, which I think is accurate too.

Wait, there's an item restriction? That's cool as hell, I'm actually kind of excited for it. But can they hold duplicates this time?

Absolutely no idea what kind of team to use. I don't even really know what's eligible. I've got some pokes mentioned in the thread already bred and maybe trained, so I could cobble together an emergency team if I need to.
Any neat gimmicks I might wanna try out?

grass/ice, grass/psychic, grass/dark, rock/psychic, rock/fighting, and rock/dark all are tied with 7 weaknesses
rock/ice, however, is the most vulnerable to all attacks
and dark/psychic has no resistances
