All Gens Theorymon: Anything Goes in Gens 1-5

After seeing that Showdown had a ladder for Gen 4 Anything Goes, I started wondering how an Anything Goes metagame would look like in all generations before Gen 6.

Some initial thoughts:

Assumptions:
  • Just like how Gen 6+ Anything Goes still has the Endless Battle Clause, I'm assuming that past gens won't be completely clauseless. The minimum clauses that I'm assuming for past gens are:
  • No Glitch Pokemon/moves/items/etc. Not sure if this should include movepool extensions to regular Pokemon caused by Glitch Pokemon or not.
  • No unlimited movepool glitches
  • No unlimited glitched stats. This includes glitches that can give all Pokemon the stats of all other Pokemon.
  • No levels over 100. Actually not 100% sure on this; what major differences are there when everyone is level 255 compared to level 100?
  • No desync glitches

Gen 5 Anything Goes:
  • Interestingly, if I'm recalling correctly, this is the only gen pre-Gen 6 where we've tested a 'pseudo-Anything Goes' environment, by suspect testing various clauses in Ubers and seeing how the metagame developed. This gives a substantial amount of insight into how Gen 5 Anything Goes would look:
  • No OHKO Clause: This clause got re-banned after its suspect test not due to how much luck was involved, but rather how dominant the moves were - if I recall correctly, even the most skillful players were relying on them for their sheer power in the long run. I'm not too familiar with how relevant OHKO moves are in Gen 6+ Anything Goes, but it's possible one would see them more often in a Gen 5 Anything Goes metagame.
  • No Evasion Clause: This clause actually got unbanned after its suspect test due to the general offensive strength of the Uber-tier Pokemon outstripping the advantages gained by evasion in the long run. I wouldn't expect evasion moves to have any large impact on a Gen 5 Anything Goes metagame.
  • No Moody Clause: Re-banned again thanks to dominance and making games really, really stally. I don't think this shows up too often in Gen 6+ Anything Goes (seems like SwagKey, Mega Ray, and Arceus multiples dominate the meta), but without the first two of those three, again, it sounds possible that this would show up more often in Gen 5.
  • No Sleep Clause: Ah, this was my favorite suspect test. Thanks to Gen 5's unique sleep mechanics, I believe the No-Sleep-Clause metagame all-star was Butterfree (with Darkrai only being second place), thanks to Whirlwind spam basically giving the player an unlimited number of free turns (and up to 15 extra free turns even after Butterfree went down, if the opponent's whole team was asleep). This kind of situation doesn't exist in Gen 6+ Anything Goes, but I could definitely see it running wild in Gen 5.
  • No Species Clause: The only clause to not be suspect tested in Gen 5 due to running out of time. Multiple Arceus, anyone? Without the previously-mentioned SwagKey and Mega Ray, this is the most dominant theme in Gen 6+ AG that still exists in Gen 5. Being Gen 5's highest BST, this is almost definitely going to stick.
  • Overall, this is looking like an Ubers meta punctuated mostly by the lack of Species and Sleep Clauses. The hilarious image I'm having in my head is a team with multiple Arceus facing off against a team with multiple Butterfree (and vice versa), dueling for sleep versus strength.
Gen 4 Anything Goes:
  • Acid Rain has the potential to make this whole metagame a clusterf*** and throw the rest of this paragraph out the window. Aside from that though, sounds like No OHKO and Evasion Clauses will look largely the same as Gen 5, Moody doesn't exist yet, and No Sleep and Species Clauses will be the primary things differentiating this from Ubers. No broken sleep mechanics so no broken Butterfree sweeps, but multiple Darkrai + multiple Arceus will probably dominate.
  • Unrestricted EV Arceus (through the Pal Park Retire glitch) is assumed allowed here.
Gen 3 Anything Goes:
  • Here's where things start to become more unpredictable, with everything currently dominating Gen 6+ AG (Mega Ray, SwagKey, Arceus, Darkrai, Primals, etc.) being nonexistent. As I'm writing this I realize that I know almost nothing about Gen 3 Ubers, so the following is wild speculation:
  • The only clause I know of that's specific to Gen 3 is Ingrain Clause. This said, is it possible that Baton Pass Evasion-based luck teams will end up coming out on top here?
Gen 2 Anything Goes:
  • Finally, it becomes possible to run a full Ubers team in Gen 2. Never mind that though; unlimited SleepPerishTrap and SleepTrap are legal here. I could see this metagame getting really boring....
Gen 1 Anything Goes:
  • And now we enter the realm of multiple completely unique clauses and 'alternate victory conditions'. Starting with:
  • No Cleric Clause: Your team is now allowed to lower their HP and PP by any amount, and self-inflict any status conditions, prior to the battle, since Gen 1 doesn't fully heal the team before link battles. This has the potential to be huge: Self-PSN the whole team, and everyone becomes immune to FRZ, SLP, and PAR permanently. I can see this becoming so dominant that even the lack of Sleep and Freeze Clauses becomes negligible.
  • No Sleep/Freeze Clauses: Largely overshadowed by the lack of Cleric Clause. Even the super-broken 30% freeze chance of Blizzard in Japanese Gen 1 pre-Yellow becomes irrelevant.
  • No OHKO/Evasion Clauses: I have a couple of flashbacks to RBY days before these clauses existed, including when Smogon had an RBY Mew set featuring OHKO spam, but I don't recall either of these becoming any sort of dominating force.
  • No Species Clause: I am not looking forward to facing six poisoned Mewtwos.
  • No Invulnerability Clause: And here's the 'alternate victory condition'. Use No Cleric Clause to start the battle with one or more team members paralyzed running Fly or Dig, spam it until a user becomes fully paralyzed during an invulnerable turn, and then watch as every last move except Swift misses and misses. (Moves like Thunder and Earthquake don't work in Gen 1.) Is Swift going to be run on everything in response? Are teams full of six Gengars going to be used to punish opponents running too much Swift? Only one way to find out.

What do you think?

For Gen 1, don't forget wrap counterplay evaporating due to PP offset builds for wrappers, even if the repeal of evasion clause renders that moot.

Though I've been dreaming of this discussion for a while, I'm one of those fringe fanatics who thinks standard in every gen has too many clauses as it stands, so I'll stay out of this thread

P.S. OHKO in Gen II :D

Banned deucer.
Gen 1 AG just seems annoying, besides OHKO moves, it's already difficult to take down Mewtwo, Imagine playing against 6 of them, that can even have double team (I think it learns it by TM, I'm not sure right now lol). And each of them with different movesets..

fun fact in gsc if an OHKO move fails to KO (either bc of a miss or sub blocking it) it can be countered to OHKO the user instead (!)

Some funny mindgames & rochambeau-esque triangles are likely to emerge in anything goes gsc (eg, sub + counter beats OHKO on average, OHKO beats goodstuff on average, goodstuff beats counter + sub on average, also ptrap beats goodstuff, goodstuff beats encore & dry trapping, encore & dry trapping beat ptrap)
 
March stats are up, so we have some idea of what DPP AG looks like:

Sorry the formatting's a little busted up (especially on DPP). I spent about an hour trying to correct the spacing before giving up, haha. I will try to remember to fix this when super bored some day...
 
Disclaimer that I think Anything Goes as a general thing is absolutely stupid, but I feel like theorymonning so idk
Gen 1 Anything Goes:
  • And now we enter the realm of multiple completely unique clauses and 'alternate victory conditions'. Starting with:
  • No Cleric Clause: Your team is now allowed to lower their HP and PP by any amount, and self-inflict any status conditions, prior to the battle, since Gen 1 doesn't fully heal the team before link battles. This has the potential to be huge: Self-PSN the whole team, and everyone becomes immune to FRZ, SLP, and PAR permanently. I can see this becoming so dominant that even the lack of Sleep and Freeze Clauses becomes negligible.
  • No Sleep/Freeze Clauses: Largely overshadowed by the lack of Cleric Clause. Even the super-broken 30% freeze chance of Blizzard in Japanese Gen 1 pre-Yellow becomes irrelevant.
  • No OHKO/Evasion Clauses: I have a couple of flashbacks to RBY days before these clauses existed, including when Smogon had an RBY Mew set featuring OHKO spam, but I don't recall either of these becoming any sort of dominating force.
  • No Species Clause: I am not looking forward to facing six poisoned Mewtwos.
  • No Invulnerability Clause: And here's the 'alternate victory condition'. Use No Cleric Clause to start the battle with one or more team members paralyzed running Fly or Dig, spam it until a user becomes fully paralyzed during an invulnerable turn, and then watch as every last move except Swift misses and misses. (Moves like Thunder and Earthquake don't work in Gen 1.) Is Swift going to be run on everything in response? Are teams full of six Gengars going to be used to punish opponents running too much Swift? Only one way to find out.

What do you think?
The bolded bit is really close to what I think RBY AG would look like. Firstly I don't think that running anything that isn't M2 is viable, simply because M2 is that much better than everything else, having the tools to beat literally everything in the game besides opposing M2. Ordinarily the only thing constraining it is that it only gets 4 moveslots, but that becomes a non-issue with 5 other M2s on your team. So then the optimal strategy is 6 poisoned M2s right? Well, I don't think so. When you have two teams of M2s what you end up with is a PP stallfest. In that scenario it's actually more advantageous to be paralysed than it is to be poisoned as it reduces your PP consumption, while M2s are so bad at killing each other that the risk of losing to shitty hax is still very small. Admittedly there is a potential for hax if you have to send a paralysed M2 in on a boosted poisoned M2 (such as if your previous one loses the stallwar) as then there's a lot more potential for things to go awry, but even so I think being paralysed would be worth it a lot of the time. I'd probably want one or two M2s poisoned to function as "sweepers" but for the most part para+Barrier I think is the way to go.
 
Another reason you'd want something besides 6 poisoned Mewtwos in RBY AG:

Dragonair Wrap vs. Mewtwo: 11-14 (2.6 - 3.3%) -- guaranteed 8HKO after poison damage
Mewtwo Ice Beam vs. Dragonair: 234-276 (72 - 84.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Mewtwo Blizzard vs. Dragonair: 296-348 (91 - 107%) -- 43.6% chance to OHKO

A team of 6 poisoned/burned Mewtwos can pretty easily be swept by AgiliNair which can set up in front of unboosted Mewtwo without bad luck (particularly as a lead where it won't have to worry about boosted Mewtwo), and the best chance of Mewtwo OHKOing it is using Blizzard which is still less than 50/50 while also leaving it with less PP against a full Mewtwo team. Dragonair also gets Horn Drill, which gives it a 30% instakill which would be handy against a barrier boosted Mewtwo.

RBY AG wouldn't always just be 6 Mewtwos, there's a few other Pokemon that are reasonable options:

Dragonair - Detailed above. Could be used as a lead. Best set would probably be Agility / Wrap / Horn Drill / Hyper Beam or Toxic*.

Rapidash - Less reliable than Dragonair but lacks the Ice weakness and is more capable of surviving crits. Could be used as a lead. Best set would probably be Agility / Fire Spin / Horn Drill / Hyper Beam or Toxic*.

Seaking - Agility + Horn Drill. Gets multiple chances to spam OHKO moves against mono Ice Mewtwo before fully boosted, and survives long enough to boost and attempt a Horn Drill or two against 999 Spc Blizzard Mewtwo. Could be used as a lead. Best set would probably be Agility / Horn Drill / Hyper Beam / Toxic*.

Slowbro - Stalls any Mewtwo without Thunderbolt and threatens paralyzed Mewtwos with Fissure. Best set would probably be Fissure / Surf / Amnesia / Rest.

Vaporeon - SUPER gimmicky, but Haze removes status from the opposing Pokemon which, paired with Ice Beam Mewtwos, opens up freeze as a wincon. Removing Amnesia boosts also helps keep Vaporeon around a bit longer and makes it safer for one of your own Mewtwos to come in and and build up Amnesias and go for the freeze. Definitely would prefer facing paralyzed mono-Ice Mewtwos to take as little damage as possible. If you're using this, it should definitely be your lead to ensure something immediately gets unstatused from the start while minimizing the risk to Vaporeon. Best set would probably be Haze / Ice Beam / Surf / Sand Attack or Toxic*.

Gengar - Probably the least viable usable option. Shuts down Wrap / Horn Drill shenanigans, but otherwise completely useless. Best it can do vs. Mewtwos is hope for luck with confusion + full paralysis or to explode on a non-Barrier boosted Mewtwo. Best set would probably be Explosion / Thunderbolt / Confuse Ray / Night Shade or Toxic*.

* purpose is to cripple Agility + Wrap / Fire Spin users to prevent them from potentially wrecking your poisoned Mewtwos.

Edit: Also, Gen 2 would have no cleric clause as well. You can enter battle with damaged/pre-statused Pokemon there, though the only possible changes that'd bring is maybe pre-paralyzed Pokemon to sleep block if you don't want to run Sleep Talk for some reason (or are trying to stall longer using FPs to save PP), or maybe trying to abuse 1 HP Flail Dodrio or Flail+Reversal Gyarados. (use Pink/Polkadot Bow on Dodrio for maximum Flail damage, and Black Belt on Gyarados to OHKO Snorlax with Reversal)

There have been plenty of glitches AG's ignored because it's meant to be only things regularly legal on cartridge. For precedent: in ORAS any Pokemon could learn Dragon Ascent if you had all boxes full, refused to box something for Rayquaza, and had that Pokemon in your first slot when Zinnia teaches it (or something like that). AG isn't really for glitches.

Banned deucer.

But, you could play with those Giratina on WiFi, if you do that glitch in ORAS you mentioned, you can't play with those Pokemon online

I'm with Megazard in saying that glitch-only pokemon shouldn't be allowed, the example that I'd point to being rby/gsc, where if we allow glitched pokemon it becomes an absolute mess. Also I think it would also be hackmons thanks to ACE?

This... isn't ACE? The only code being executed is the code that's supposed to be.

It's just that Platinum sets Giratina's form without recalculating its stats, if you set/remove the Griseous Orb from the right menu.

It probably wouldn't be AG legal (infinite movepool glitches and the like aren't) but it isn't ACE.

Hypothetically speaking, Giratina hybrids would be part of whatever you'd call the most expansive possible gen IV metagame - ie. one that allows any and all things obtainable on cartridge without use of external tools.

(I mean, so is Kyogre with Tail Glow and Recover, though, so obviously that's a pretty different format compared to AG.)

ah sorry, I didn't mean that the gira glitch was ACE, I meant that RBY/GSC theoretically become hackmons due to ACE
