And if they didn't replace SS with L: A, I doubt they're going to replace SV with L: Z-A. Similarly, if they didn't add Arceus' gimmickshit into SS for VGC, I doubt they're going to do it for SV with L: Z-A's gimmickshit.
Despite them having a GO championships division (by its very nature, it CAN'T be console VGC, thus is irrelevant to what happens with console VGC, as evidenced by Game Freak mandating only SS were legal VGC titles in 2022's Championships).
