Remember when GF used to show restraint with Close Combat’s distribution in gens 4-7?

CC distribution before Sw/Sh (the OGs that always had it):
>Primeape
>Arcanine
>Machamp
>The Hitmons
>Pinsir
>Heracross
>Ursaring
>Granbull
>Hariyama
>Zangoose
>Infernape
>Staraptor
>Lucario
>Gallade
>Sawk
>Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizion
>Meloetta
>Xerneas
>Crabominable
>Passimian
>Kommo-o
>Marshadow
>Zeraora
Everything else settled for Superpower or High Jump Kick

CC distribution after Sw/Sh:
