It's the top 12 you moron, you can just look deeper if you want to see what people are playing beyond these pokemon.

The usage percentages are still concerning though. A dozen Pokemon are at higher than 20%, which means that they're all in incredibly high consideration for inclusion. There are hundreds of options; the rates in a healthy, diverse meta shouldn't see any examples with this much disparity. I would even go so far as to say any Pokemon with a usage rate higher than 1/3 is too much.

You're a bot poster, no one cares what you think when you respond like that with a completely backwards contextual mind.

Amoonguss was good long before the meme video game came out.
It's one of the best support mons in the game and the best supportive grass type bar none.

Yeah. It's a shame because Arcanine is super fun to use and can run different builds but Incineroar is just too good.

Arcanine has a niche in GS Cup rules in that it's a base 95 speed and a lot of the restricted mons are base 90.

I actually think in this meta Arcanine might have a bit more of a niche over Incin than the last one. Since Flutter is so common, the fairy resist is pretty useful.
I still think Incin BTFO Arc but unlike last time I think there's going to still be a good chunk of arc usage.

Everyone should realize that competitive Pokémon is an unbalanced farce that only exists to shill CHARIZARD and the FOTM shillmons.

It can use both abilities effectively since Inner Focus both protects against Fake Out and Intimidate.
It also has Tera Normal Extreme Speed.

So we're counting paradoxes as legends now? Not that it really makes a difference, not like anybody but homebrew leagues segregate lesser legends so much that it deserves its own count like restricted legends do.

Play a challenge hack or take on the Battle Frontier if you want difficulty.
Something that actually takes intelligence to get through.

I see its a subjective perspective that I won't bother to try and persuade you against but how you figure people interested in comp pokemon are casual players seems like a very big leap of logic imo.

Because it is literally designed at a root level to be a casual experience. Full of deliberate RNG, deliberately overpowered monsters, and items to make them even more so.
Game Freak makes sure that competitive pokemon is not comparable to Starcraft or DOTA or Counter Strike in viability as a skill based competitive scene.
It is as deliberately casual as Smash Bros.
