I want you retards to stop perpetuating the myth that regional forms fix competitive shitmons or do justice to forgotten mons.
In fact, having an overpowered alternate form is even worse than being forgotten and left to rot below NU, you are literally dooming the original to live in the shadow of a better alternate self. Alolan Marowak doesn't help Marowak to keep up in popularity, it shits all over its legacy and by becoming the defacto "worthy of use" iteration it dilutes the original design.
Furthermore, failing to address this very obvious fallacy validates Gamefreak's horrible habits of applying another layer of powercreep bandaid to the games instead of addressing and fixing terrible core design choices such as, among an ever increasingly long list, the fucking atrocious type balance and crippling BSTs some mons have (slow frail mixer attacker, anyone?).
Thanks for reading my blogpost, now either agree with me or eat shit and die.
