So normally I'm not really into joining the Rating Battle Seasons, but the Special format of this one caught my eye. The special rule this time is that each Trainer will select only one Pokémon to battle with.
There was a competition last year in which this was the rule too and I've really enjoyed that one, mostly because the battles are really fast and I did pretty well. So I think I might actually blow the dust of my Moon version and join this one
More info about the Special format of Rating Battle Season 4:
Time period: May 16 - July 17, 2017
Format: Single Battles
Amount of Pokémon: Six on team, one in battle
Battle time: 5 minutes (60-second Pokémon preview, 15-second turn times)
Disallowed items: Mega Stones, Z-Crystals, Focus Sashes, Eviolite
Disallowed Pokémon: Mewtwo, Mew, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Celebi, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Jirachi, Deoxys, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Reshiram, Zekrom, Kyurem, Keldeo, Meloetta, Genesect, Xerneas, Yveltal, Zygarde, Diancie, Hoopa, Volcanion, Cosmog, Cosmoem, Solgaleo, Lunala, Necrozma, Magearna, Ash-Greninja
Pokémon from the whole National Dex are allowed (except the disallowed Pokémon named above) and you can use Pokémon transported from previous games. You cannot use two or more Pokémon with the same Pokédex number, and no two Pokémon participating can hold the same item.
More info: Pokémon Global Link
So any more people here interested in joining this season's Special format? Which Pokémon are you going to use and what is your strategy going to be? And once the season has started, you can also use this thread to tell how your battles are going
