Question.

The rules here says explosion etc are allowed, but Cheryl says on the gym leader discussion you said they wouldn't be allowed, I'm thinking of entering either way if I get time to make a team so I was just wondering which rule it was?

All Self-KO moves, like explosion, are allowed. We initially didn't allow for them to be used, but decided that allowing them would make things a little more interesting.
