Hello Pokemon trainers!

The results of the legend poll are in, you can find the summary of the poll [here](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1YvdFzt4KbBVbkFKcYbH31RJhJ4EAGiVErBtDwjfgTqo/viewanalytics). From this we seem to have some definite rulings on the legandaries from this poll:

* Heatran will be allowed this season with no restrictions.

* Landorus will be allowed this season with no restrictions.

* Kyurem-B will be allowed this season with no restrictions.

* The Lati@s Twins will be allowed this season with no restrictions.

* Thundurus will be allowed this season with no restrictions.

That said, the overwhelming amount of support for keeping lucarionite banned will result in it staying banned for this season, **HOWEVER** we are looking at testing a possible restriction on mega lucario to allow it to be usable for next season.

With that, the mods have pretty unanimously decided to ban Mega Salamence pending testing of a restricted moveset that would allow him to be usable, but again that will be for next season.

This brings our currently usable roster to the following logical conclusion:

**LEGENDARY POKEMON:**

* All Legendary Pokemon available in either X/Y or ORAS are now **LEGAL** in the Season 3 draft!

* All Legendary pokemon available **EXCLUSIVELY** from events (Genesect, Arceus, Celebi, etc.) are still **BANNED** in the season 3 draft.


**MEGA POKEMON**

* **MEGA POKEMON THAT WILL REMAIN FULLY LEGAL:** Beedrill, Pidgeot, Slowbro, Steelix, Sceptile, Swampert, Sableye, Sharpedo, Camerupt, Altaria, Glalie, Metagross, Lopunny, Gallade, and Audino.

* **MEGA POKEMON THAT WILL BE BANNED:** Salamence, Latias, and Latios.

On another note it appears a majority were in favor of keeping the roster size at 11, even with the mega pick being included, as such it appears majority rules and **the roster size for season 3 will remain at 11 pokemon**.

With all that our of the way, some of you should have received a message from me regarding the draft tonight. As of right now I am aiming to have one draft **tonight, Friday December 19th at approx. 9:30 PM EST** and the other **Monday December 22nd at approx 9:30 PM EST (time subject to change based on availability)**

If you will not be able to attend either of these draft dates its imperative that you fill out the [absentee draft form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1sv1M1YDGNsjCU1q_1zDtG8INdfgxMBRAcoyd_-YNKZI/viewform?edit_requested=true) and contact the mods with any specific details you may have about drafting for you.
