how does a flash fire vulpix introduce luck to the game? and looking at it now, I think I know the real reason, but I don't understand your guys stand on keeping my favorite pokemon away from me, but I will say that looking at it, there are 3 LC contenders with Moody, 1 with drought, I GUESS it's easier to ban the 1 pokemon then the ability, but even then you could argue that by just banning the ability it covers your bases if ANOTHER pokemon down the road got the ability, despite how unlikely that is.
Edit: OH I GOT IT! Banning Moody is logical because of what I will be calling the Magikarp effect, If you took magikarp and gave him moody, He'd become over powered, and it's 100% the ability at the cause here, by that same factor, If you gave Magikarp Drought (go along with me here, I know he'd more likely have Drizzle) you would likely want to ban him for the same reason, It's 100% the Abilities fault for the ban, Put either ability in the hands of any pokemon, and you have a pokemon that's over powered.
Now in the case of Carvanha, who is most likely banned due to his Speed boost ability, giving Magikarp, or any other normally useless pokemon, and he's not suddenly over powered, because the ability isn't 100% the reason for the ban, see my point?
And besides ability not even easily obtained by vulpix in the first place.
Last Edit: I think this should be moved out of this thread before it gets any bigger and more bitter, I know this isn't what this thread is for, and I really don't want to step on any ones toes, and for the record, I'm sorry if I angered anyone, It was not my intent =(
