Hi, thank you for getting back to us! We definitely recognize the utility of being able to request or offer such tags, considering how limited request/offer slots are (and the sheer number of Pokemon!). However, at least for this current round, we are requiring more specificity.
Our concern with "Any" type nominations is that, especially if mods are unfamiliar with the canon, verifying that a requested character is in a work becomes trickier and at the very least more time-consuming, which impacts the work approvals process.
Still, we'll try to think of ways to make this workable on our end in future rounds, and we're open to feedback/ideas about it in the meantime! Apologies for the inconvenience, and please feel free to ask further questions.
