Its movepool is the least of its problems when it's a mono-fire type with a rather meh statline with merely above average special attack and reaching base 100 speed (which isn't that impressive nowadays)

It's a jab at Game Freak's "balancing" decisions.
If a Steel/Ghost Pokemon can be immune to status effects, then Typhlosion and Meganium can have actual movepools. No exceptions.

Intimidate will remain unchanged. Instead we get another ability that interacts specifically with it and is limited to a complete shitmon. Pursuit comes back but only Incineroar can learn it

Miraidon Nerf is understandable but koraidon? He is good in single but his typeing and lack of synergy with his ability
And the inevitable removing of terastallize he doesn't need any nerf especially as physical damage dealer

Koraidon lacks only one of the boosts that Miraidon enjoys unless it's tera fire, in which case it enjoys more power.
Both bikes need a 15% nerf to their abilities so they aren't 1hko everything.(fuck it, do it for the paradoxes too)
Calyrex needs a nerf too, make them hold the reins of unity. Too powerful, moxie, and both are in the extremes of speed tiers.
The wolves I believe are nerfed enough, they just happen to be good support in double restricteds.

Checked. I think bike lizards could get their abilities nerfed to only 20% boost. Caly needing to hold reins is a good nerf too. I would like something to happen to Urshifu because of how little counterplay there is. And that stupid cat needs to lose uturn and parting shot.

they will add a severely overtunned defensive mon that will see mass use to the point where every team will need to include a way to break through it specifically or be completely walled. It will be ugly and everyone will hate it. Smogon will not ban it.

People bitch about Intimidate, but I still stand by my original feelings that Reg F was the best SV VGC has been, and was arguably the best VGC has ever been. Incineroar with Intimidate and its partners AV Raging Bolt/Rillaboom slow down the game to the point it's not a 4 turn rush down where one misplay ends it. You will play slow, you will play deliberately, and you will like it. The game will be one of positioning and setup, not Specs Flutter Mane Scarf Chi Yu, or Follow Me Trick Room into Psyspam. Intimidate is the glue holding VGC together.

Calyrex just needs the Neighs nerfed to not double proc in one turn, so getting a double KO would still only give +1. Once Tera is gone, Calyrex will go back to being Knock Off and Wil-o-Wisp fodder for Incin. It's only doing so well now because it can Tera out of the one thing balancing it; its terrible typing.

Even at +1 the Calys are too good.
Their min/max'd stats for their respective speed tiers makes them far too good and the usage backs it up.

What if unseen fist only worked on punching moves? sure Wicked Blow and Surging Strikes would get through but it would have to run the dramatically weaker Drain Punch or the unreliable Focus or Dynamic Punch if it wanted to Fighting move through shields.

Ogerpon is able to be transferred over, but her masks no longer exist and we're left with a new base form that has Adaptability to reference Tera.
