I don't really play comp, but I am curious to see what people think of this idea. What if team-building had a built-in total BST cap? As in, the BST of all pokemon on a team are added up and must be equal to or less than the cap. Let's assume the average BST of all fully evolved pokémon is 500 (that's prob wrong, just assuming for sake of discussion). Placing that cap at 3000 means you could have 6 pokemon with BST up to 500. Stronger pokemon therefore take up more resources, and would require you to use weaker pokemon in your other slots.
I'm aware that BST is not the be all end all, and that things like Huge Power suddenly become invaluable. But its just food for thought.
