    This is the format of the banlist:

    Code:
    00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
    00 00 C0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0E
    00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 C0
    07 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 98 7E 00 00
    00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

    Notes:

    • The banlist is 0-based and should be read in binary.
    • Bit=0 means its corresponding Pokémon is allowed.
    • Bit=1 means its corresponding Pokémon is banned.
    • Formula to find whether a Pokémon is banned or not is P=(8×B)+b with:
      • P (Pokémon) being a number between 0 and 649 included;
      • B being the Byte number, counting from 0;
      • b being the bit number from a given Byte, from 0 to 7 included read from right to left.



    The banlist is located at narc a/1/0/5 in BW, and narc a/1/0/6 in B2W2.
    Even though the banlist is the same between the facilities enforcing it, the banlist itself is technically not unique as you'll see below:

    Battle Subway and Battle Institute (All versions):

    Single Battle and Wi-Fi: file 20
    Double Battle: file 21
    Multi Battle: file 22

    PWT (Black 2 and White 2 only):
    Single Battle: file 33
    Double Battle: file 34
    Triple Battle: file 35
    Rotation Battle: file 36
