>>52245618I really fucking hope they don't turn gen 9 into a repeat of gen 8.
Gen 8 was aggressively boring.
I don't even necessarily disagree with any of the offensive threats banned in gen 8, but they actively refused to even consider banning any defensive threat.
I hope stall getting gutted as hard as it did this gen will make Smogon realize that they can't preserve their stall meta this time, but I doubt they'll take the hint.
