Regarding the rules:

Sydian and I felt it would be more appropriate and much easier to merge the rules of 4th Gen with the rest of GPGD (excluding Challenges), for organisation purposes now that 4th Gen is a part of GPGD. From now on, all rules of 4th Gen are that of General Pokemon Gaming Discussion's! If you have any questions though, about 4th Gen, I'm your man! If you're looking for the GPGD rules, they can be found right here. :]

Thanks!
