ZapdosZulu Exclusive Differences

While the bulk of the role play itself relies heavily on progression and battling akin to that of the official Pokémon video games, it is impossible to fully mirror every aspect of the games. Moves, abilities, items, and various others have either been rendered redundant or ineffectual.

This list hopes to raise awareness of the various changes that have been put in place to make use of the aforementioned moves/abilities/items so that they aren't wasted in addition to a number of exclusive original items that have ZZ has introduced.
