They can still compete but only if the athlete is clean and not under the Russian flag.
ScrooblyDoobles
"If they are clean" is a big if, the whole reason russia got banned is because they did ninja shit to come up clean. '
lambaroo
desperate russia cheating yet again to pretend it's still relevant & not the shambolic corrupt overrated shithole it really is?
CryptBeast
Athletes aren't banned, just the country. Which serves Russia right imo - morons who waste money on hosting Olympics need to be punished.
CryptBeast
Hope they also get banned from their own World Cup next year.

Feel bad for genuine Russian athletes though. Missing out because some of their fellows like withered nuts.

you should go to russia, and realize that there are pretty much none: in russia gold olympic gold medals is national pride, so state...

They're the minority, and although it really sucks for them to not compete under their flag, they can still compete

Could be possible that some didn't really have a choice. It is Russia.

Russia is banned. Russians are not (necessarily).

Mark my words, now that governments are being outed on this shit, the whole "drug and tech augment Olympics" is suddenly gonna be considered

A possibility. even though people thought of that years ago
Traja01
Government.* Singular. And it's Russia. Their government is basically the mafia, I wouldn't use them as the standard for behavior.
notabigfanofimgurtbh
you're delusional if you think it's only russia that does this
Traja01
I didn't say they were. Why would you respond as if I did?
notabigfanofimgurtbh
It read as though that was what you were implying. Their government is transparent with their shittiness, ours isn't. Only difference.
visorian
You singled them out, why if not to say other governments are different?
Traja01
Well, that's because they're the only ones to have been banned by the IOC. I didn't single them out, they were singled out.
Traja01
There are plenty of governments like Russia, they just don't have the influence to effect such a change.
Traja01
Also, he implied that we'll see a new brand of Olympics, meaning major players are on board. Russia is certainly different from the others.
L3uCh7f3u3r
Russia is banned as an organization, athletes are still allowed to compete, don't spread false information, doping is still coming
wckedmara
oh wait i see, they can go as individuals from Russia but are not competing FOR Russia
wckedmara
so what does it mean to ban Russia as an org if the athletes are still participating?
StephenDaniels
If a Russian athlete wins they get Rick Astley's 'Never gonna give you up' for a song. I for one, see this as a giant improvement.
killer10347
the fact that if they win anything, it doesn't get counted toward Russia's record
rshini
Russia won't get credit for any medals Russian athletes win, they won't have their flag or anthem played.
davis3d
Good. I was about to say that would be super unfair for the non-dopers who trained their whole lives for this.

When nearly every athlete is doping, you pretty much have to if you want to compete.

True, but only if you're competing in the doping league. If you don't want to dope, complete in a clean league.

MidiArbite
"Too much" isn't usually efficient for most athletics.
previoustopcomment
"efficient" in the short term is also potentially disastrous long term, you think athletes wont sacrifice 10 years from now for a win today?
NocturnalGreed
If it's an official league, then the use would be controlled and monitored. Arguably more safe than illegal usage.
TheNighUnstoppableForceKnownOnlyAsThomasCorso
And then people dope more than the legal allowments in a bid to get an advantage and you end up with a similar problem
Kage197
Just like the whole Russian doping thing, it was literally controlled by the government and the scientists. I'm sure they had it
BadgerTribe
Go on,
previoustopcomment
Yes, because in the league where drugs are only kinda legal it will be even harder to cheat then in the league where it's completely banned.
NocturnalGreed
You're assuming they'd cheat beyond doping, but that's the entire point of a drug league. You want an advantage? Use it.

Yes, they will completely stay within the prescribed rules of approved dosages and drugs in the magic drug league where no one cheats.

Of course, favorite and best aren't synonymous.
IcyLucario
Xurkitree is my favorite UB, that, or Stakataka(Jesus spelling) because he's absolutely perfect for a medieval theme team.

This looks like a job for QuadLeper.
Sanosky
But...how would the back 2 attack
Dualpsiioniic
The back 2 are moral support. The magic of QuadLeper is that Leper is good enough to only need 2.

Looks like darkest dungeon. Or as I like to call it: frustration and despair.

You know theyre running out of ideas when they decide to make a jacked mosquito that looks like this
VoltageXL1
boohoo i insulted someones favourite pokemon (ultrabeast who gives a fuck) mm tasty downvotes
IcyLucario
It isn't a Pokémon. It's an alien. Each and every UB is intentionally bizarre, so to call it out of the ordinary meansItsDesignedSuccessful
WhiteCollarOfficeJobs
They aren't aliens, they are extradimensional. The dimension they came from is wack.
IcyLucario
Yep, they are extradimensional. "Actual alien" Pokémon like Deoxys look great while not too over the top. ..But he wouldn't know that so I-
IcyLucario
-didn't bother.
WhiteCollarOfficeJobs
(Although, I suppose an extradimensional being is a foreigner to our dimension, so I guess it's still an alien.)
WhiteCollarOfficeJobs
Ah, always has to be this comment in regards to newer Pokemon.
IcyLucario
Ignorance and nostalgia make very vocal people. But hey, I guess he liked them when they looked good:
/s
VoltageXL1
that mosquito with a human body is disgustingly ugly. theres nothing else to it
IcyLucario
Yeah too bad nobody gives a fuck what you think buddy.

I dislike the way they drew the gardevoir's ears in this. They look like plastic, but I think they should like like feathery, fluffy tufts
SheepOfTheCosmos
SHE HAS EARS?
Stormquake
I think the things on the side of her head are ears, yes
Ewanator
At least they didn't to the red horn thing they do with human ish gardevoir
VonJello
THAT THINGS A POKEMON?!
TobiOfTheAkatsuki
Buzzwole? I hardly consider it a Pokemon because it, along with the other Ultra Beasts, come from another dimension and it's AWESOME.
