If you're going to nitpick this much about one word, then fine, I'll change it.

Really Retro?
fixed it for you, so many typos smh
I left it there on purpose actually. Thanks for responding and fixing it.
Yeah, that's more than okay. I do have some sort of festival planned at some point in winter, so about then would be good.
Yep, it's right next to the Numel
Sorry that I haven't exactly been present... I'm still inside of the Splatoon 3 black hole this weekend. I'll be much more active on Tues-Fri though.
If you're still around then we'll be leaving Olivine soon.
Role call for the rest of the squad:
@Godjacob
@Grand Master Koop
@Alternate_Mystery
I'm here, just kinda having to wait for the battle royale to end since Gene doesn't want to be involved in that.
Got it

Name: Piper Elizabeth Halloway
Gender/Pronouns: female, she/her
Age: 21
Height: 5'1" (≈155 cm)
Hometown: Hearthome City, Sinnoh
Appearance: Personality: Bubbly and upbeat, Piper is first and foremost a born socialite: she loves parties, meeting new people, and striking up a conversation with anyone, about anything—sometimes whether they like it or not. She isn't always the best at realizing when she's annoying others with her constant chatter, but for those who can appreciate her outgoing nature she's a warm and loyal friend (sure, she loves to gossip, but she'll defend you with her life if the gossip's about you). Piper is a deeply emotional person, and said emotions can fluctuate wildly—she can be jumping up and down with excitement one moment and then on the verge of tears the next. She also has a tendency to be somewhat hasty and disorganized, sometimes rushing into things without thinking them through. Hailing from a rich and privileged family means that she can sometimes be out of touch with the average middle-class person, but it isn't out of malice. If you were really mean, you might call her airheaded or a ditz, but despite first impressions she's highly intuitive and an excellent problem-solver, and when she's actually got her mind set on something she always gives it 100%. She's also a surprisingly competent battler, having many achievements under her belt from her days competing in Pokémon Leagues and tournaments around the world. Fashion is her true calling, however, and she not only designs and sews almost all of her own clothes, but accessories for Pokémon as well. She's a girly-girl through and through and adores all things cute and pink, but is happy to work with any human or Pokémon no matter their personal style. Her insatiable love of sweets, on the other hand, is a bit harder to accommodate, considering she's nothing short of a disaster in the kitchen. All in all, Piper is a kind and passionate young woman with a good heart, so long as you're willing to put up with her various eccentricities.
History: As the only child of a wealthy businessman, Piper was raised in the lap of luxury and treated like a princess from the moment she was born. At age six she was given a Piplup to act as her companion (and to teach her a little responsibility), and the two were soon inseparable. Money didn't mean Mom and Dad were absent from Piper's life, however; if anything, they were a bit too involved, and Piper was subjected to her fair share of helicoptering. While Piper's parents never explicitly discouraged her from pursuing the path of a Pokémon Trainer, it was no secret they dreamed of her taking over the family business. Piper loved her parents, but she felt stifled, and a future spent crunching numbers in a dreary high-rise office just didn't sound like her cup of tea. When she came of age, Piper set out to take on the Sinnoh League, Étienne the Piplup at her side and well aware of the boat she was rocking. Over the course of Piper's journey, Étienne eventually evolved into a Prinplup and then all the way into an Empoleon, and she added many other Pokémon to her team as well. Together they've travelled to Johto, Hoenn and Unova and competed in the Leagues there, and although she never quite took home the gold there's no doubt that Piper made a name for herself as a skilled Trainer. The thrill of competition subsided after a while, however, and eventually Piper decided to return home to Sinnoh to finish out her education. These days, she's doing some casual traveling and coasting by on Daddy's money while she tries to figure out exactly what she wants to do with her life, but she's determined to make it in the fashion world one way or another—and quickly, too, because her parents are already starting to buzz once again about her taking over the company…
Pokémon:
Étienne the Empoleon (♂)

Rash nature. Hates to lose.
Lucy the Gastrodon (♀)

Looks great! accepted.
thank you! could i perhaps jump into or link up with the olivine group? if they're headed for the whirl islands i think piper would probably enter the whirl cup there
Sure, we'd be glad to have you. We were just about to leave out so Piper could catch us there.
The ferry doesn't leave for a few days so we decided to buy a raft and use our pokémon.
Shalend Geographic Guide
Shalend is a very small region, only equating to the size of Ula'Ula Island in the Alola region. It has a very cold and precipitous climate, and is primarily composed of fields, plains, and forests, with a single mountain resting in the center. Its total population is also very small, both in the amount of people and the variety of Pokémon as a whole. Its economy is mainly supported by exporting agricultural goods, such as wheat, produce, animal byproducts, and baked goods. Politically, they are a very minor power, barely contributing much of anything in terms of global relations, and as such are either often forgotten about, or treated as a lesser people. In general, the Pokémon found here can be found anywhere in the region, with a few obvious exceptions.
Droma is the port town of Shalend, and the only place to land if planning to visit, return to, or leave, as there are no airports on the continent. The streets and pavilions are are primarily composed of marble and stone, and the buildings are made from spruce and clay. There are several small businesses, including a tailor, a cobbler, a few taverns, and a patisserie, the only well known thing from the region. Surrounding it is mostly water, but it also has some plains and the base of Mt. Pnu at its back.
Poppon is a mining town, and is embedded in the snowy Mt. Pnu for easier access to the caverns. Like the mountain, the houses are made from various stones and minerals, and is where the region's supply of common metals like iron and aluminum primarily comes from. It is surrounded by frozen forests, and it is recommended you have someone guide you through if you wish to visit, as the local Pokémon are extremely territorial.
Righ is an agricultural paradise, literally surrounded by wheat fields for miles on end. It is such an important part of Ilsh culture, the farmers and the sailors of Righ and Droma created a road for express delivery of agricultural goods to port for shipment. It is also the place where the Festival of the Ancients, a national food festival where several delicacies are brought after being prepared for the winter, along with a large group dance in the town square.
Andora is a fishing village, and there isn't much to see, as the local sea life is fairly uninteresting. The only thing of note is how the houses are built along with the bridges, acting as fortifications to the bridge, and an easy source of water for the inhabitants.
Roche is a farming town, and where all the livestock are kept and raised until it is time to harvest their byproducts, or harvest the animals themselves. There's also a petting zoo for the kids, as well as a place to wrestle with Gogoat as a leisurely activity, and as a sign of strength. Like Righ, there is a direct route to Droma from here for easy transportation of animal goods.

Whoa you can become Aquaman if you win this tournament?
As per request, a simple itinerary of events during the Whirl Islands. This is based on simple projections and the assumption that we'll only spend around a day or so at each island.
If all goes well we'll clear the islands within a week, and the next week will be reserved for Cianwood Gym challenges and the Safari Zone.

Sanguine Swarm when?
I'll be honest it's supposed to be after we reach Cianwood and then come back to Olivine xD
RP-time-wise...another week or two. IRL time? No clue.
Aw, man. XD Dang.
Oh well, I can continue waiting. :3 Though, that Whirl Cup sounds very interesting. My researcher might not be the strongest, but I do want her to attend. Who else will go?

You'd actually round out the tournament section nicely; the current confirmed participants are myself, Hec, and Critterisgrey.
I may recruit some external Rpers to fluff the preliminaries.
Oooo okay 
Is it only Water-Types have to fight and how many? From what I was reading, it sounded like there only needed 1 or 2 (and considering the only Water-Type on Naka's team is Barraskewda who's used for crossing waters and not much for battles....)
Is it alright if I give her one or two battle Water mons? XD Just a Ludicolo and a Swampert (or a Marshtomp). :3 She's kinda offset in having stage fright, so she might not win, but hey, she really wants that first prize to make her life a whole lot easier with researching XD

I am interested in having Savannah participate and she'll do so by quickly catching 3 random Water types, she still isn't clear on battling so she'll also have to ask the more experienced in the group to give her a rundown and I think that could be a good RP scene
You'll need at least three water types and no probs with adding a few to her team.Oooo okay

Noted!
I will slap her three Water-Type mons now :3
Naka's Whirl Cup Contestants:
Naka's Whirl Cup Contestants:
Species/Type: Swampert - Water/Ground (Immune to paralysis, Thunder Wave, and damage from Sandstorm)
Nickname: Mudster
Gender: Male
Ability: Torrent - When this Pokemon is injured or exhausted past a certain extent, their Water-Type attacks get stronger.
Appearance: Just a regular ol' Swampert, except the orange padding on his legs have some scarring, as well as the two black fins having some notches.
Nature/Personality: Adamant | Mudster was always selfless and protective of those he was close to, but he absolutely loved to relax and sleep when he didn't need to do anything. Of course, what he wanted to do sometimes conflicted with what others want him to do, being stubborn unless when ordered by Naka or when he thinks she doesn't mentally think through her decisions due to her stage fright. Either way, he's there for her when he can, and being stubborn enough not to back down either.
History: Mudster was chosen as a starter by Naka-, nah. That's not what happened. What actually happened was Professor Birch told Naka to go to a muddy swamp near a river nestled within a forest and the 14-year-old girl got stuck in the mud. Mudster as Mudkip had found her and helped her out by swimming in the mud to release her Pokemon that were also stuck in the mud and they worked together to pull her out. Of course, actually capturing him was the difficult part. While he was selfless and liked to nap and was rather chill, he didn't like doing what he didn't want to do. Stubborn, it took Naka several days to catch him as he knocked out most of her weaker Pokemon before she was able to weaken him enough to capture. Since then, he's won several Hoenn badges for her and evolved, as he always felt that Naka needed to feel secure. While in combat, if too many people are watching, Mudster usually took initiation in a fight, used to having Naka freeze up.
Moves:
1. Liquidation - Water | Physical | While doing damage, it has a 20% (1/5) chance to lower the target's Defense.
2. Muddy Water - Water | Special | Makes the water muddy and surges it into a wave, and has a 30% (~1/3) chance to lower the target's Accuracy.
3. Sand Tomb - Ground | Physical | Creates a tornado of sand and traps the opponent, dealing gradual damage to them over time for 2-5 of my posts (randomly generated). It prevents switching out and escaping, unless the user switches out or the target uses Rapid Spin, has Run Away, or forces the switch with moves like U-Turn, Baton Pass, or Parting Shot.
4. Ice Punch - Ice | Physical | Punches the target with a fist made of ice, which has a 10% (1/10) chance to cause the target to Freeze.
5. Iron Tail - Steel | Physical | Slaps the target with a tail as hard as steel, which has a 30% (~1/3) chance to lower the target's Defense.
6. Counter - Fighting | Physical | Waits until the opponent moves, drawing in power. Once the target uses a Physical move and hits the user, the user absorbs the damage (still gets hit with the full thing) and then sends it back to the opponent twofold. Ghost-Types are immune.
7. Mirror Coat - Psychic | Special | Waits until the opponent moves, drawing in power. Once the target uses a Special move and hits the user, the user cloaks itself in a mirror-like field (still gets hit from the full damage), absorbs the damage, and mirrors it back to the opponent twofold. Dark-Types are immune.
8. Stealth Rock - Rock | Status | Creates an entry hazard around the target Pokemon's side of the field. When a Pokemon switches in, they get hit by the rocks. Deals Rock-Type damage. Goes away when Rapid Spin is used by the affected Pokemon, removed from Defog on both sides, and can be reflected by Magic Coat. Doesn't damage Pokemon with Magic Guard.
9. Amnesia - Psychic | Status | Either increases Special Defense by 1, or temporarily forgets a battle-ready move for a day to increase Special Defense by 2.
10. Take Down - Normal | Physical | Base Power is lowered to 45, user takes recoil damage by 1/2 damage dealt.
11. Rock Slide - Rock | Physical | Base Power lowered to 35, has a 10% chance to Flinch, and only hits one foe, not all adjacent foes.
12. Water Pulse - Water | Special | Base Power lowered to 30, has 5% chance to inflict confusion, and can't hit non-adjacent opponents in a triple battle.
13. Supersonic - Normal | Status | Has 35% Accuracy instead of 55%, and the opponent's confusion only lasts 1-3 turns/posts and they deal half as much confusion damage against themselves. Can't reach behind the Substitute.
14. Protect - Normal | Status | Only prevents 25% of the damage from affecting the Pokemon by an attack. It doesn't protect against secondary effects or status moves. Each successive use has a higher rate of failure. Doesn't protect against Dynamax or Z-Moves moves at all. Any attacks that deal damage to the user of Protect deal double the damage (Feint, Doom Desire, Future Sight, Hyperspace Fury, Hyperspace Hole, Phantom Force, and Shadow Force).
15. Rock Throw - Rock | Physical | Base Power lowered to 25, 65% Accuracy.
16. Rock Smash - Fighting | Physical | Still has the strength to smash rock outside of combat. When in combat, Base Power lowered to 20, and has a 10% chance to lower the target's Defense. Tires out the user more (less PP).
17. Water Gun - Water | Special | Base Power lowered to 20, 90% Accuracy.
18. Growl - Normal | Status | Only affects one foe and not all adjacent foes. Still decreases Attack by 1, but has 95% Accuracy.
19. Tackle - Normal | Physical | Base Power decreases to 35 and Accuracy decreases to 95%.
20. Surf - Water | Special | Base Power lowered to 45, only doing 1.5x more damage to those using Dive, and does double damage to adjacent allies. Can still surf on water and carry an adult along.
21. Earthquake - Ground | Physical | Base Power lowered to 50, does 1.5x damage to Pokemon in the middle of Dig, deals double damage to allies, and does no damage when used on Grassy Terrain.
22. Hammer Arm - Fighting | Physical | Base Power lowered to 50, 80% Accuracy, and lowers the user's Speed by 2, regardless if they hit the target.
23. Mud Shot - Ground | Special | Base Power lowered to 25, 85% Accuracy, and has a 10% chance to lower the target's Speed.
24. Mega Punch - Normal | Physical | Base Power lowered to 40, 75% Accuracy.
25. Mega Kick - Normal | Physical | Base Power lowered to 60, 50% Accuracy.
26. Whirlpool - Water | Special | Base Power lowered to 15, 70% Accuracy, only traps the target for 1-3 turns/posts, does 1/32 of max HP of damage, and deals 1.5x more damage to those using Dive. Can still use this to calm raging whirlpools and waters in bodies of water to traverse through.
27. Dive - Water | Physical | Base Power lowered to 30, 80% Accuracy, and takes triple damage from Surf and Whirlpool during Dive's turn. Can still dive underwater and carry an adult along.
28. Avalanche - Ice | Physical | Base Power lowered to 30, no Priority, and Base Power doubled to 60 when the user is hit before making this move.
29. Ice Beam - Ice | Special | Base Power lowered to 45, 5% chance to Freeze the target.

Nickname: Mudster
Gender: Male
Ability: Torrent - When this Pokemon is injured or exhausted past a certain extent, their Water-Type attacks get stronger.
Appearance: Just a regular ol' Swampert, except the orange padding on his legs have some scarring, as well as the two black fins having some notches.
Nature/Personality: Adamant | Mudster was always selfless and protective of those he was close to, but he absolutely loved to relax and sleep when he didn't need to do anything. Of course, what he wanted to do sometimes conflicted with what others want him to do, being stubborn unless when ordered by Naka or when he thinks she doesn't mentally think through her decisions due to her stage fright. Either way, he's there for her when he can, and being stubborn enough not to back down either.
History: Mudster was chosen as a starter by Naka-, nah. That's not what happened. What actually happened was Professor Birch told Naka to go to a muddy swamp near a river nestled within a forest and the 14-year-old girl got stuck in the mud. Mudster as Mudkip had found her and helped her out by swimming in the mud to release her Pokemon that were also stuck in the mud and they worked together to pull her out. Of course, actually capturing him was the difficult part. While he was selfless and liked to nap and was rather chill, he didn't like doing what he didn't want to do. Stubborn, it took Naka several days to catch him as he knocked out most of her weaker Pokemon before she was able to weaken him enough to capture. Since then, he's won several Hoenn badges for her and evolved, as he always felt that Naka needed to feel secure. While in combat, if too many people are watching, Mudster usually took initiation in a fight, used to having Naka freeze up.

Species/Type: Ludicolo - Water/Grass (Immune to Leech Seed, Effect Spore, and powder and spore moves)
Nickname: Ludwig
Gender: Male
Ability: Own Tempo - Due to the Pokemon's inner tempo and pacing, they are immune to confusion, even if self-inflicted, and Intimidate.
Appearance: Just a regular ol' Ludicolo.
Nature/Personality: Quirky | Ludwig loves to leave his Pokeball, making her trainer miserable in embarrassment as he dances around and sings jovially. He loves to get into trouble, but he has to keep himself looking clean, or else he'll get violent.
History: Ludwig was found as a Lotad trying to eat Naka's food from her bag. Upon being found out, instead of fleeing, Ludwig sang for her and danced, hopping and spinning around her in a circle before suddenly skedaddling away. As he did so, Naka had already thrown a Net Ball, capturing him. Of course, being hit by the ball had knocked him over in some mud, so when he came back out, he was very miffed and attacked Naka for getting him dirty. After promising to get him clean and then bathing him, Ludwig seemed easy to please because he became a chill member of her team, evolving through her adventures. When he evolved into Lombre, it was because he thought she was going to attend a contest and he wanted to help, only to be disappointed. When he evolved again, Naka had a Water Stone in her bag and Lombre had reached in blindly for food, evolving a little too early for Naka's liking.
Moves:
1. Giga Drain - Grass | Special | Deals damage, absorbing the opponent's life essence from a distance and taking upwards of 50% of the damage dealt to heal. However, Liquid Ooze causes damage to the user, and can be blocked by Heal Block.
2. Bubble Beam - Water | Special | Has a 10% (1/10) chance of lowering the target's Speed.
3. Knock Off - Dark | Physical | Attacks, and does 50% more damage if the target is holding an item (unless it's an item it cannot lose, like a Mega Stone). Hits the item off the target, making it unable to be restored with Recycle. Items that are triggered from Knock Off activate before being knocked off. It cannot knock off Mail, an item if the Pokemon has Sticky Hold, or if it hits a Substitute. Cannot remove Mega Stones, Z-Crystals, or Memory if it's Silvally. Fails completely when used against a Dynamaxing Pokemon.

Species/Type: Wishiwashi - Water
Nickname: Iwa
Gender: Female
Ability: Schooling - If Wishiwashi is trained to a decent level of experience or more and has more than a quarter of its stamina, it will change into its School Form at the start of battle or when switched in. If it's stamina is a quarter or under, it will change back to its Solo Form.
Appearance: Just a regular ol' Wishiwashi.
Nature/Personality: Relaxed | Just a calm Wishiwashi. Not even putting up much of a fight when she was fished out of the river she was in, not even when she was caught. In fact, Naka thought she was sleeping when she was actually awake, just chilling. When she finally was able to activate her ability, she had shown better durability than others of her species.
History: Caught in Alola during Naka's field trip there when she was 12, she caught Iwa thinking she was cute, but found her constantly still or "asleep" as she thought. It was only when she started training the fish on her time off did she realize Iwa didn't need to do much or express much, due to how relaxed she was. When Naka used her in a gym battle against Crasher Wake in Sinnoh, Naka had at first thought Iwa evolved when she called upon a likeness of herself, only to realize it was just a form shift when Iwa got severely damaged, though it took awhile due to Iwa's natural bulk. Since then, she's been a staple on Naka's battling team.

Nickname: Iwa
Gender: Female
Ability: Schooling - If Wishiwashi is trained to a decent level of experience or more and has more than a quarter of its stamina, it will change into its School Form at the start of battle or when switched in. If it's stamina is a quarter or under, it will change back to its Solo Form.
Appearance: Just a regular ol' Wishiwashi.
Nature/Personality: Relaxed | Just a calm Wishiwashi. Not even putting up much of a fight when she was fished out of the river she was in, not even when she was caught. In fact, Naka thought she was sleeping when she was actually awake, just chilling. When she finally was able to activate her ability, she had shown better durability than others of her species.
History: Caught in Alola during Naka's field trip there when she was 12, she caught Iwa thinking she was cute, but found her constantly still or "asleep" as she thought. It was only when she started training the fish on her time off did she realize Iwa didn't need to do much or express much, due to how relaxed she was. When Naka used her in a gym battle against Crasher Wake in Sinnoh, Naka had at first thought Iwa evolved when she called upon a likeness of herself, only to realize it was just a form shift when Iwa got severely damaged, though it took awhile due to Iwa's natural bulk. Since then, she's been a staple on Naka's battling team.

I legit have been staring at my computer screen trying to figure out what to write for like 4 hours now.
As you would guess, it is very hard to write for a character who is basically mute, so your posts have to be entirely filled by actions instead of a half and half of words and actions.

Oh, no, that sounds like pain. xD but hey, your mute character sounds looks really cool.
that was a bad pun, I'm sorry :'D
Hey @kyuukestu do you mind if i set up a little contest in Galar? My plan is to do that, then get to Johto in time to meet the gang
Go ahead o7
Move Overhaul
Alright peoples, it's time for a move system overhaul. Feel free to give your thoughts and criticisms.Skip to the bottom if you want a TL;DR/Summary of everything.
Before I get asked: no, it isn't necessary, but I want to and it's a good opportunity to set some clear ground rules about some things, like Legend's Arceus' Mastery System, which I certainly plan to make use of but don't want to see abused.
For example, any pokémon with Serene Grace—looking at you, Togekiss.
Idk bout y'all, but I have no desire to see Serene Grace Togekiss spamming Strong-Style Air Slash for a STAB 90-BP move with a practically guaranteed flinch; or, if that is allowed, it should come with a sufficient trade-off so it isn't broken.
I will be accepting suggestions and ideas on how to balance Mastered moves.
Now onto more standard things. We currently implement an 8-move limit intended to make pokémon with wider move-pools less broken and more balance by restricting options; after having @Hecotoro 's Swampert spam EQ against me, I have decided these restrictions don't go far enough! Jk, but there is something to be said about filling your 8 move slots with: Fire Blast, Thunder, Focus Blast, Hyperbeam, Nasty Plot, etc., and then using these crazy strong moves back-to-back-to-back.
Here's the deal: high base power (henceforth BP) moves should be taxing and while this doesn't mean all of them to turn into Hyperbeam/Giga Impact where your pokémon can't move, it does mean pokemon should show some level of exertion after using these moves. If your Pikachu just spammed thunder 10 times without breaking a sweat then you've gone too far or it's on drugs.
Short aside: I do recall there being several items in various canons (side games, animes, manga, etc.) that can 'super-charge' pokémon. If you wish to put in the effort and research to find the, present them in the discussion thread, and then use them, great! If it helps the story you want to write then power to ya, just be mindful of other Rpers.
I will not be forcing a PP system onto people unless spamming moves gets out of hand. I trust that people can exercise good judgment.
That said, here's the new move system I have in mind:
Moves will be treated like skills or muscles, you have to exercise them or they degrade over time. You only have so much time and energy to spend on working out/exercising, so you can only keep so many moves in tippity-top condition. These will be referred to as 'Battle-Ready' moves and they can be used as normal, and you will be allowed to have your pokemon 'Master' then L.A. style.
Moves that are NOT Battle Ready can still be used but they will take a penalty of 50%.
Here's an example:
This is Esvora, the Garchomp
Her battle-ready moves are:
1. Outrage
2. Earthquake
3. Iron head
4. Poison Jab
5. Dragon Claw
6. Brick Break
7. Giga Impact
8. Scale Shot
She can use these moves at 100% efficacy: full BP and all the effects that come with them.
Outside of these battle-ready moves, she also knows: Sword Dance, Draco Meteor, and Sandstorm. She hasn't been keeping these moves sharp so while she can still use them in battle, their effectiveness would be reduced by 50%.
Sword Dance, will be reduced to a paltry +1 atk boost.
Draco Meteor would be reduced to 70 BP and a 1-stage Sp. Atk drop.
Sandstorm would only last for 2-3 turns instead of 4-5.
Makes sense?
Now, of course, Esvora could change while moves she keeps battle ready. So she could replace Giga Impact with Draco Meteor. Now she can use Draco Meteor at full power and Giga Impact takes the penalty. HOWEVER, re-training a move takes time. I'm not gonna tell you to RP it and have it takes weeks or anything, but don't try to use this as a quick swap.
I'm in the middle of a tournament and I want to quickly swap out my battle-ready moves—Nu-uh.
TMs/TRs can get around this, however, as the whole point of those is to grant your pokemon quick access to a move. If you want to use TMs/TRs to quick-swap your battle-ready moves then go ahead.
TL;DR
1.) Legends Arceus' Mastery System is fair game, but we need to look into further rules so it isn't abusable.2.) No back-to-back spamming of high BP moves without good reason
3.) Hard move limit will be removed.
3.1) You have access to all your moves but can only use 8 of them at full effectiveness/battle-ready.
3.2) Moves that are NOT battle-ready will take a 50% penalty. Keep track of your battle-ready moves.
3.3) Swapping your battle-ready moves is allowed but should not be instantaneous unless you're using a TM/TR.
3.4) Moves that only inflict status conditions: Thunderwave, Will-o-wisp, Hypnosis, etc. must be battle-ready. Moves like Protect and Detect will also fall under this.
