>>54362393The entire AG debarcle is a perfect example of Smogon's pure retardation.
>WELL ACKSUALLY WE CAN'T BAN ANYTHING IN THIS FORMAT SO WE'LL JUST DELETE ITNo sane person would actually believe that Gamefreak would allow Shedinja to use Tera and for Revival Blessing to be callable by Assist. Calling for these strats to be banned completely missed the point: neither of these things should have worked the way this way in the first place.
>B-B-B-BUT THERE WAS NO EXCEPTION PROGRAMMED FOR ASSIST NOT TO CALL REVIVAL BLESSINGOf course there isn't. Assist hasn't been in a mainline pokemon game since gen 7. It also works off a blacklist. Why would Gamefreak program an exception for a move that doesn't exist? The whole thing was so fucking stupid that you can only laugh at it.
