>>55817251>GameFreak Balances around VGC mythFlutter Mane exists
Calyrex-S exists
Dynamax existed
Mega Kang existed
Primals existed
Urshifu exists
Evasion exists
Moody exists
Precipice Blades/Origin Pulse are still less accurate than Glacial Lance/Astral Barrage despite having same BP, targeting, and having no additional effects.
There still exists hundreds of Pokemon that will never see the light of regular viability and usage because GameFreak simply refuses to buff them significantly and if they do it is while introducing more broken shit.
Heavy Duty-Boots was created despite hazards having 0 affect on VGC or BSS.
Gengar itself being nerfed solely to have its ability match the model.
Stone Axe and Ceaseless Edge created despite only being useful in Singles.
Etc.
TRUTH is GameFreak doesn’t balance for shit.
>B-but thing isn’t banned tho!!Only reason why shit isn’t banned is because VGC players have 0 input in tiering. Otherwise it’d be extremely similar to Smogon doubles if not basically identical with rules.
