>>33211070>Greninja raised people's expectationsTHIS. That fucking frog set the bar for people expecting an OU Staple from Alola's bunch, but from the looks of things none of them were planned to be a shillmon, as that title currently belongs to Lycanroc.
Not only that, everyone's favorite frog swoops in yet again to claim yet another position in fame with Battle Bond, allowing for even more mindgames than before.
In fact, A-Greninja aside, they were probably planning on letting Alola's Dex in general shine for Gen 7's duration with how much slower everything was, but then they decided it'd be a good idea to let in the Tapus and UBs making the entire meta in both VGC and Smogon center around them, their checks, their counters and counter-counters.
