Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Each item adds or changes the secondary typing and carries a 50 base point bonus and a 10 base point penalty. Like with Mega Stones, the items cannot be removed. Otherwise abilities and movepools stay the same.
Each Pokemon's offensive stat and its respective defensive stat becomes equal. The higher stat between the offensive and defensive stat is used for both stats.
Every Pokemon has two distinct battle stances, which will swap their offensive stats with their defensive ones based on the stance they're currently in.
Every Pokemon on your team has access to all of the moves and abilities abilities of the first Pokemon in your teamslot, but you lose access to your own movepool and abilities.
If hax can happen, it will happen: any move with a chance to miss will miss; every move that hits will crit; and every move with a secondary effect activates that effect.
The first three slots and last three slots in a team are separate "halves." Right before the match, one half is randomly selected. The Pokemon in that half become a part of your opponent's team, and vice versa.
