This season for is the most insufferable shit I have ever played in Pokémon and it's no wonder why Mythicals are banned and people are playing Spikemuth Cup instead
>dude just win the 50% at the start of each match when each player is choosing their broken duo

I got to Max rank but it is absolutely horrible. And I made sure to get to Max last month so I'd have less matches to do to get there this month because I knew it would be horrible. Anyway I got Rank Master ribbons on all my mythicals now which is cool.

I for one, welcome our new Magearna overlords.

Mythicals alone would've been fine if only as a novelty.
The real fucking cancer is allowing unlimited big legends.

The one merciful thing about that is that the pool of legendaries you will see has dwindled down to about 8 of them. You only really need to know how to deal with Groudon/Kyogre/Palkia/Yveltal/Calyrex Ghost/Calyrex Ice/Zacian. The other legendaries all appear so infrequently you don't really need to take them into account.

I haven't seen a single one of these actually perform well.

I told people that this isn't doubles OU and it'd be too hard to snowball against restricted Pokemon people don't listen.

This format would have been so much better if they made it 0 restricteds 2 mythicals. Not looking forward to getting to Master Ball this month.

Once you make it into Ultra Ball you're safe. Even if you have a particularly terrible streak you really only need a couple of 2 wins in a row to make it into Master Ball and you can never fall too far.

It's Great Ball where things are really a nightmare.

Reminder that Smogon was right and bans are necessary for a healthy meta.

>Dynafags for years claim that Smogon is filled with whiners or that Dynamax is balanced for VGC
>VGC players were so fed up with Dynamax that they make their own fanfic format and it’s just an older season without Dynamax
Is there any hope for Dynafags now that even VGC players would rather play fanfic formats without their fetish button?

Dynamax isn't the problem with this meta

It’s a problem with all the Gen 8 metas that didn’t ban it.
Obviously Magearna is still broken even without Dynamax, but being able to Fake Out+Strong SE attack would make Magearna (and other broken Pokemon) much more managable.

No, all no restricted Pokemon allowed formats played just fine if not a lot better than the past two other generations and Dynamax improved the meta by giving you more options for setup

Sounds like you've got a skill issue :^)

They are right about that, but they're wrong about what is and isn't banworthy.

They should have allowed 1 or 2 mythicals only and no restricted at all, or 1 of each but nope, lets just go full retarded...
At least for the first time ever VGC had many different rulesets during different seasons and most of the seasons were good.
