Banned Pokemon on online battling?

Question

There have been rumours of banned Pokemon on online?
Does any know if this is true?

Comments

Back in black (and white) was it the garchomp with sand-veil ban, and i also heard something about azu+belly drum+Aqua jet ban, and a drizzle+kingdra+swift Swim ban. Thats all i remember, but many of the new mega evolutions are op enough for ban, so im pretty sure some of Them will be banned after a while, but i dont know.

Are you talking about Smogon bans, which are fan made rules, or are you talking about Pokemon that are banned from wifi battles/ tournaments, which was decided by Nintendo/ Game Freak?

We don't really know what Pokemon exactly are banned. We know for a fact that the Pokemon that we're banned from the past gens are still banned such as lugia and chatot. We will probably get a full list of Pokemon that are banned  including from this gen when it gets closer to a competition



I hope I helped!

There are no actual banned Pokemon for online. However there are rules that ban Pokemon for competitive battling. Go gootle "gen 6 competitive rules smogon" and look for what is allowed and what isn't.

Evasion cause: No double team, minimize, etc...
UBERs Cause: You're too strong to be used professionally
Hackmons: Why would you think you could get away w/ using a hack anyways?
Moody Cause: Mindanao goes w/ Evasion cause. Also it's really OP

Just to name a few rules

There are banned Pokemon via wifi. Most event legendaries are banned from normal play.
