Rain now lowers Flying-Type/Levitating Pokemon's Speed by half

Every type gets their own type-based equivalent of Stealth Rocks. Every one of these hazards can stack with eachother + Spikes/Toxic Spikes/Sticky Web/ect

Intimidate lowers Attack, Special Attack and Speed

Steel now resists every type, imcluding types which previously did supereffective damage towards it

Hail now does damage to Ice-Types

I forgot to read the title and was about to make a strongly worded post

>switching pokemon makes the next attack stronger when you stop switching
>so 1 switch = 25% attack bonus, 2 switches in a row = 50% attack boost

>Aurora Veil is default in hail for both teams

>the 1/256 accuracy glitch is re-added

>All pokemon can have up to four abilities. One is fixed per species, the second is better than the first and comes from a species specific list, and two can be selected by the trainer, but also from a species specific list. Breeding allows Pokemon to inherit abilities the same way they do egg moves

Idk, I think Stealth Rocks for each type has potential, specially if you nerf rocks a bit (it only deals 75% of the damage it does right now). Don't let it stack, or maybe you can only stack types that are neutral to each other (i.e. if you have water rocks up trying to use electric rocks would dispel the water).
Or maybe fuse hazards and terrains.

There should be a move called "Camel Caltrops", exclusive to the Camerupt line. It would be a Fire/Ground-Type Stealth Rocks, and could stack with any other hazard

All stat buffs and debuffs only last 3 turns
There are no hazards anymore
You can always chose if you want to switch your pokemon before or after your opponent's turn.
Status effects stack (you can be poisoned, burned, paralyzed, asleep, toxiced and frozen at the same time)

You can stack stealth rock and they have no limit on how many layers you can have
Boots only blocks spikes, toxic spikes, sticky web, and sharp steel
Every pokemon learns stealth rock
Remove rapid spin and defog from the game but keep court change
Court change doesnt switch your opponent's hazards over making the switch one sided
Landorus gets court change and is the only other user
Magic Guard doesnt work on stealth rocks
Regenerator fully heals the user.
Volt switch still switches if blocked by an ability like volt absorb and lightning rod or by ground types
Same goes for flip turn
Baton pass doubles the stat boosts passed
Double team and other evasion moves go up by two stages now
Eviolite increases defenses by 4x now
Bright powder is now a 40% chance of activating
Weathers stack and never end even when activated through a move
You can only play singles locally with a 5 minute forced timer
The turn timer is now 5 minutes long
Getting a freeze freezes the game

Can't switch frozen pokemon.
Switch can fail if the pokemon is confused, causing them to hurt themselves in confusion.
