National Dex AG

Composition

National Dex AG (Anything Goes) is a 6v6 singles metagame that has the fewest restrictions found in any of Smogon's formats. Every Pokémon from any tier is allowed, and because the Species Clause is lifted, you can have up to six of the same Pokémon on your team. Because National Dex AG is a National Dex metagame, all cut Pokémon from past generations, as well as cut moves, Z-Moves, Mega Pokémon, Primal Pokémon and more are legal.

The metagame has a permanent ladder on Pokémon Showdown. You can discuss strategies with friends in the Anything Goes room on the simulator, the Anything Goes Discord, or in the main thread on the forums.

Play Restrictions

• Endless Battle Clause: Players cannot intentionally prevent their opponent's Pokémon from fainting from PP depletion and Struggle recoil.
