The rules for {{bp|Wi-Fi}} battles are set to change in {{game|Black and White|s}} on Dec. 27. While the main changes reinforce the restrictions on {{bp|hacked}} Pokémon, the move {{m|Dark Void}} will also be banned from use.


The article states that Pokémon are only allowed to use moves learned by {{bp|leveling up}}, through a {{bp|TM}} or {{bp|HM}}, {{bp|breeding}}, {{bp|in-game events}}, or out of game {{bp|events}}. The only exceptions to this are the moves {{m|Free Fall}}, which was previously banned, and Dark Void, which will be banned when the rule change goes into effect. The only Pokémon that can learn Dark Void are {{p|Darkrai}}, who is already on the list of banned Pokémon, and {{p|Smeargle}}, who can {{m|Sketch}} the move from Darkrai.

The second half of the article talks about how any player with hacked Pokémon will not be allowed to compete in Wi-Fi battling, and that in any future official Pokémon tournaments, these rules will be added.
