Toxapex being in blows my mind. There better be a counter in the Galar mons.

Metagame will be even more centralizing. We'll just have fewer S/A-rank mons to choose from.
There'll be less variations in any archetype, especially rain teams, strong pokemon will have fewer, if not a single, basically required counter.
Hype

It has really good bulk, recovery, and Unaware so it makes an incredibly solid wall. It also gets Block to Toxic/PP stall shit out.

This except I hate toxapex, ferrothorn and you.
They literally have nothing to stop them now. This is the stupidest decision I've ever seen in my life. Those 2 pieces of shit should have been culled if balance was a priority.
I'm not looking forward to seeing them on every fucking team ever.

Rain lover since Sinnoh here.
This sucks.

>amount of swift swimmers cut in half, might not even be enough weather abusers for a full team
Watch as rain teams just become stall + pelipper

I’m very surprised that Type:Null and Silvally didn’t get cut. Will it be a gift or will they be in the wild?

They can't be wild, only 3 Null were created and all 3 were put in stasis. It definitely has to be a gift, presumably Gladion is in the region or some other aether employee. That or you find the lab it was stored at or some shit.

Why in the fuck would you WANT to use Politoed as a designated rain setter, when Pelliper is at least 20 times better unironically? Do you not think there was more than one reason everyone used Pelliper over Politoed when Pelliper got buffed in Gen 7?

that's the viablity rankings
as in, anything thats viable in OU (which means things that arent in OU can be there. theres a lot of people nominating Torkoal for C rank because for sun teams which have started to see some use he's pretty good at setting rocks and spinning them. i spent all night grinding heart scales while watching replays of Omari P thrash OU with a mono fire sun team)

ou rain is unironically Pelliper + Mega Swamp + Ferrothorn + Tornadus + 2 filler mon (kokolucha for maximum brainlessness)
I am NOT okay with the dexcut, but if ANYTHING good came out of it, it wasn't Lando being cut. it was forcing rain to use different mons

instead of chlorophyl, consider running a bunch of fire type breakers to brute force the enemy with sunboosted stab and a cleaner to finish the job

That's just it, I can't out damage them with the available fire types, which are Vulpix, Litwick, Rotom-H, salazzle, Turtonator, Growlithe, and Charmander lines (discounting the new mons).
God, I hope Giga Sizzlepede is any good.

I mean, when you cut 2/3 of the pool your options for the metagame are going to be limited. We'll probably see 2-3 absolute staple pokes in every single battle.
