Okay, so I've been out of the loop for a while. I haven't bought a Switch yet so I haven't played Gen VIII yet and in general I took a break from Pokemon. Lately I've started playing the games again and I'm going to buy a Switch some time later this year. Anyway, as a result of this I've gained a little bit of interest for the competitive scene of this gen. I recently learned that there have been some pretty wild and notable moveset buffs in SS. The ones that immediately pop into my mind are Nasty Plot Hydreigon, Shell Smash Blastoise and Close Combat Aegislash. I was just wondering, what else should I be aware of? Aside from these, what are the most essential moveset buffs and changes that have actually had an impact on the metagame or are just worth mentioning in general? Also, what are this gens equivalents to Lando-T, Toxapex and Tapus, i.e. the cookie cutter Mons that are running around in every team?
