>>31457694>Implying we will have to wait that long>Implying it won't happen on the DPP remakesWe will be getting something better with Cynthia's Garchomp. You know how Cynthia is Masuda's waifu and how he loves to wank her.
>>31457703>Almost nobody used Garchomp in VGC12Factually wrong.
Garchomp appeared in 3 Top 8 Worlds team that year. Same as Latios. Meanwhile Hydreigon was only in 2.
>13Garchomp was in one Top 8 Worlds team. Same as Hydreigon actually. Latios appeared in 2.
True. Every VGC meta where Landorus-T is allowed Garchomp is thoroughly outclassed. But that he becomes "nearly unviable" and "almost nobody uses it " because of Cresselia and Latios? C'mon son.
>14Garchomp fucking everywhere.
>15Landorus-T. This is the only meta ever where I'd agree with you that Hydreigon > Garchomp.
>16Big legends. Everything was outclassed here.
>17Garchomp is fucking everywhere despite it being Tapus The Meta.
Can you really honestly and truthfully tell me that if Hydreigon were the one allowed here instead of Garchomp Hydreigon would get as much usage as Garchomp does right now?
>Of course, Smogon singles is different.You know where else Garchomp utterly dominates and Hydreigon does not? Battle Spot Singles.
Hydreigon is not better than Garchomp by any measure of any stick in this World and that you actually believe he is makes you utterly delusional. They fullfill different roles indeed, but overall, in more general terms, Garchomp is a much better Pokemon. Garchomp is spashable, and most of all, has the most magical speed number in the whole game. Hydreigon would kill to even reach base 100.
Come back when Hydreigon still manages to be king of nearly every damn metagame he's allowed to be part of for 10 years.
Oh wait, Hydreigon didn't even last one generation before falling from the throne he never managed to climb in first place.
