There are no more battle formats with a team size of 6, where you might have the space to field specialized counter bullshit, and furthermore having a specific counter move/ability will hinder you in every other situation where you don't need it, because you could be using something more generally useful. The death of pokemon battling will be the power creep from having too many potential kinds of enemy and not enough space in your own team to field counters for every single thing.
