Welcome to Gaia! ::

Uber Clause: The following Pokemon are deemed to be unbalancingly powerful and are not allowed to be used: Arceus, Darkrai, Deoxys, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Groudon, Ho-oh, Kyogre, Lugia, Mew, Mewtwo, Rayquaza, Latias, Latios, Wobbuffet, Wynaut.

Self KO Clause: Players cannot use moves such as Explosion or Selfdestruct that force a tie. If a move that has recoil damage causes a tie, the user of the move is the winner.

Sleep Clause: A player cannot put two or more different opposing Pokemon to sleep using attacks that induce sleep to opposing Pokemon.

Evasion Clause: A player cannot increase their Pokemon's evasion stat with a move that specifically increases evasion, like Double Team and Minimize.

Species Clause: A player cannot have two of the same Pokemon on their team. For example, a player cannot have two Koffings on his or her team. This clause of course does not effect the use of multiple Eeveelutions or any other pokes with optional evolutions.

OHKO Clause: Players cannot use moves that have a chance of instantly KO opposing Pokemon. For example, Horn Drill is an illegal move to have on a Pokemon's move set.

One Legendary Rule: Only one legendary Pokemon may be used per team, per battle.

Item Clause v2.0: Each Pokemon on a single team must be holding a different item from one another. However, I am allowing an exception of a max of 2 Leftovers and/or like items (ex: 2 Leftovers, or 1 Leftovers and 1 Black Sludge or 2 Black Sludge, etc).

Luck "Hax" Item Clause: In online competitive play, the term "Hax" refers to when something unlucky occurs to you. Most of the time this is that 30% chance to freeze from a Ice beam, or something of that nature and it's just the way the game goes. Although, when it comes to hold items that have small chance of completely turning the game around just out of sheer chance, it's deemed rather frustrating and very similar to the OHKO Clause. For this reason, when this clause is in effect, that means the following items are banned from use: Brightpowder, Quick Claw, Focus Band, Razor Fang and King's Rock.
