Next one they'll come out with: "1 Pokemon Clause", because your 1 Pokemon to their 6 brings in the Possibility that they might lose.
Jesus, is losing a freakin video game match REALLY that bad?? It's a video game, I love Pokemon just as much as the next guy, but seriously, competitive people, you gotta loosen up a little bit. People lose. It happens. Dodging the chances by taking out strategy is cheap.

First of all, wrong section.
The reason evasion clause (double team clause) exists is because it relies solely on luck, not skill. Ever seen a subseeder use DT? Game. OVER. It is totally cheap, and is a hax move. Sure there is aerial ace, but you shouldn't have to carry counters just to beat people cheap enough to rely on hax and luck to win.
As for sleep clause, there is a reason too. You CAN put one pokemon to sleep, but imagine a gengar or crobat...they are too fast to be able to absorb status. Do we all have to carry chesto berries on all our pokemon now, or sleep talk? I suppose you've never once fought a jynx without sleep clause. Or darkrai even in ubers.
Sounds to me like you're whining. Truth is, pokemon just wouldn't be fun...there'd be more sleep and double team than freakin skarmbliss! BTW, it's only ubers, not legendaries.
That's it. If you don't want to play with clauses, battle somebody who doesn't care. We do, because we prefer to actually play fair games. Accusing us of clausing good strategies made me lol. I'm sorry, but if that were true, skarmbliss, curselax, Tyranitar, and the rest of the OU class would be claused. Sheesh.
