2 restricted isn't happening because it can't work in singles. Besides, even the doubles battle competition they did before series 8 was only 1 restricted, it's clear that they don't think 2 restricted in a dynamax meta is a good idea. My guess is series 10 will be no dynamax or a S9 banlist.

Ah yes, Dracovish, the 28th most used mon in the current format.

Retard.

I really hate post-Crown-Tundra Gen 8. Glastrier makes me want to commit die.

Anyone else starting to feel a little underwhelmed by Lapras?
I feel like Grimmsnarl + any other dynamax mon does the job better. Gigantamax Blastoise is an underrated offensive water type too.

I feel like I see more random shit with Brick Break now too. Seems having a dedicated support max mon is underwhelming, just like with the Megas.

VGC will never be good again as long as D*namax is part of the ruleset.
Wait for Gen 9.

Dynamax is literally why VGC is better than a Mega/Zmove meta. These mechanics were designed specifically for this format.

This desu. Dynamax also just makes the battles so boring. I had much more fun watching VGC 2017 than 20 and 21.

It's Stockholm Syndrome at this point
Series 8 was quite literally, unironically, the single WORST META I have EVER played in this entire franchise
Series 7 was bad, but nowhere near as horribly fucking unfun to play as S8
Going back to it makes it feel like paradise in comparison, but BSS and VGC has been shit this entire fucking gen

This also includes Psychic Fangs
I once fought a Grimmsnarl who's only offensive move was fucking Brick Break, not even SB.
It's just fucking ridiculous at this point man.

I really didn't care for S8 but S7 wasn't that great either. S5 was my favorite so far, probably.

And they failed. The way that dynamax plays out nowadays as the meta got more optimized was definitely not part of the intended balance.

I does seem like the meta is trending towards dynamaxes with the most unga bunga potential.
I can't remember the last time I saw a gigantamax Snorlax or Alcremie.

Saw a G-Max Trick Room Snorlax the other day. First time I've seen Snorlax in months.

Is there any chance of 1 Restricted coming back? I had a lot of fun in that format using Ho-oh in Singles and Dialga in Doubles, but didn't play enough to get the ribbon on either.
