I'm guessing sleep inducing moves are banned in 1v1?

I've seen people playing this in RoA tours and it looks like fun. Can anyone share some tips on which three Pokemon to choose and what moves to give them?

Hi, I think I've found a problem with the calculator - when I lower the base defence stat and DVs sometimes the pokemon takes less damage from physical attacks even though it's defence has been lowered. Unless there's some mechanic regarding DVs I don't know about this must be wrong - as the...

Wrap doesn't work the way it should on a cartridge - the only way to replicate this on PS! would be to automatically use wrap again if the player selects attack (as opposed to clicking attack to check that the other moves are greyed out and that they can switch safely). Sports like boxing and...

Trust me, you are. You used dig knowing the risk of paralysis and that it would make your next move predictable. How is that unfair? That's like saying it's unfair that Explosion has a 1/256 miss rate. Or that it's unfair that if you use wrap I can switch. Theoretically you can freeze...

Currently dig/fly are banned from Gen 1 OU. This is because if a pokemon is paralysed on it's first turn it is invulnerable until it switches out or completes the second turn of dig/fly. Firstly, there is a simple solution to the problem of pokemon becoming invulnerable when paralysed on their...

Kinda like wrap, or ice beam's 10% freeze, which aren't banned? You can't cherry pick the things you like. Why is it unfair? Something is only "unfair" if it doesn't apply to both players. It would add another dimension to the game, the ability to save yourself from losing - and your opponent...

Dig/Fly are currently banned due to the Desync Clause Mod. I propose that the ban is unnecessary and that allowing pokemon to use dig/fly would make some pokemon more viable (specifically UU) as well as provide players with an interesting way to evade explosion/self destruct. To avoid desync...

But that's what happens with wrap, you switch out and know your opponent will use wrap again. It's not an "unfair advantage" because you choose to take that risk when you use dig/fly/wrap in the first place. You're missing the point. No one wants to use water gun or string shot, but they're...

Raichu can learn fly so it isn't completely walled by Exeggutor. Aerodactyl could make good use of it (it does more damage than double edge and is it's best move against Exeggutor). Dig is the only ground move learnt by Golduck, Ninetales, Raticate and Arcanine. I think that could be significant.

In regards to desyncs, maybe they could be simulated and matches be automatically ended with a draw if that happens? I don't think that's a good enough reason to ban them. What about people who play UU? Is there any way to suggest they implement this clause so we can use those moves?

When I make a team in Gen 1 I'm unable to use an Exeggutor with 'stun spore' and 'stomp'. I get the message "Exeggutor has the combination of Exeggutor + Stun Spore + Stomp, which is impossible to obtain legitimately." Both Stun Spore and Stomp are allowed, so I don't understand why I can't use...

Is there a Gen 1 'threatlist'? I'd like to know which common gen 1 pokemon/movesets it's essential to be prepared for.

Those teams are awesome, please post more soon. How do I use the scouter? As others have said, of the big 4 Exeggutor is the easiest to drop. Doesn't this make a team vulnerable to earthquake? Who can switch into Rhydon? Only grass types resist ground :blobthinking:

Those wrap teams sound like fun! Where can I find more examples of gimmicky creative teams?
