Comments about the match: Gigalith proved to be quite some trouble for his Gym, eleminating the sun and putting up rocks. Whereas Smokin's team is more aching towards an UU team it was still a fun battle.

Just a question, if I bring Rotom-Wash to one triad, could I swap within that same triad to Rotom-heat? And how about regular Kyurem and Kyurem-B?

No. They are considered different pokemon

What Lynx said. Forms is there for the Pokemon who have different forms, or change form during battle but have the same types, such as Gastrodon, and Wishiwashi. If I need to list the specific Pokemon, let me know and I'll do so.

Comments about the match: We had a fun battle, my 'mon hit just a bit too hard for Dunkle to wall them. That Zen Missbut made me cry though.

Well it's a tricky subject. I have for example, used Greninja with Protean and Greninja with Battle Bond within the same triad. Now this is both an ability and a form, but I am really not sure if it's allowed now that I read this xd. How about Charizard for example, could I use Charizard-X and Y within the same triad? For Greninja you do need to swap the Pokemon whereas for Charizard you don't (but let's be honest, everyone would swap Charizard for X and Y cause of nature). It's hard to tell which are allowed and which are not. So I think adding a list would be awesome!

Comments about the match: That was a very close match. Ultimately my mega put in a ton of work in this match but it ultimately could not defeat his final pokemon even if it wasn't outsped. Good game and badge well earned!

Comments about the match: He only had one pokemon left but I'm pretty sure I could've beaten it with who I had left. It was still fun, the fact he let one pokemon set up screwed him up pretty bad.

Comments about the match: That battle was really tense. I got screwed by a flinch, but ultimately I got a flinch in my favour back for it. That Aerodactyl sure is scary though.

Yes Greninja is allowed with both Abilities, but Rotom doesn't change form during battle, his is manually set outside of battle and changing its form changes his typing. Rotom can easily be used to counter Gyms then as it can just swap to any type to beat the gym its against and that'll cause problems to the CT Rule as well. Plus some Pokemon like Thundurus, Tornadus, and etc, need their formes to be split up.

As for Mega Evolution is an Item which doesn't necessarily need to be held and when in a Triad and going to use Mega Charizard-X, you're automatically going to get the Flying Counter Stab as its his typing before Mega Evolving. Now after you just added on the Dragon counter to it.
