READ THIS BEFORE VOTING!!!

We may be having a mono pokemon tourney soon. This means you can use one pokemon 6 times. Yes there is no species clause. All other standard Clauses apply. However, there is one rule that meta wishes to put in place, which is the ban of Form Changing pokemon. This means no
Rotom-W used with Rotom-S. This is a poll to vote whether or no to allow them to be used like this or not.

READ BEFORE VOTING

Now.... The reasoning of this poll is because i dis-agreed with the allowing of MULTIPLE forms of pokemon in a SINGLE pokemon team.

For those of you who dont know a mono-pokemon team is a team consisting of one and only one pokemon, a example being this:

#1:Lucario
#2:Lucario
#3:Lucario
#4:Lucario
#5:Lucario
#6:Lucario

That is a proper mono-pokemon team.

What this poll is debating is whether you should or should not be able to make a team like this one: (Example below)....

#1:Rotom-a
#2:Rotom-c
#3:Rotom-f
#4:Rotom-h
#5:Rotom-s
#6:Rotom-w

This team is using multiple forms of a pokemon... (In this example rotom is used.), using multiple forms in a mono-pokemon team will result in:

Pokemon with different stats.
Pokemon with different movepools.
Pokemon with different roles in the metagame.
And a few more things,

These ruin the purpose of a mono-pokemon team, which is to test a single persons skill in picking a pokemon which can be used effectively and a persons ability to make multiple movesets of the chosen pokemon. When pokemon have "different forms" It can not be counted as the same pokemon seeing they have all of that variety.

A team of different forms can easily take any other Mono-Pokemon team due to different movesets providing extremley un-fair coverage in a Mono-Pokemon tournament or battle.

So.. if i ever do a Mono-Pokemon tournament this threads outcome will decide whether i allow or dis-allow the use of multiple forms of pokemon, But for the sport and fun of the game, i belive it should be banned from all mono-pokemon tournaments.

Post your opinions before/after voting please.
