>>30760901The ex meta back in the day of Gen 3 was healthier than the EX meta we've just been through.
GX ironically hearkens back to ex more than EX did (...). You're still gonna have overpowered basics, but they're not gonna be comparable to a fully evolved Stage 2 counterpart. So evolutions become favourable again.
The BREAK mechanic they tried to come up with to compete with EXs literally made evolution even less favourable since it was just an extra stage. Ridiculous.
