We've got a new game!
We've got a new(better) ruleset!
Let's bring back VGC General now that interest is likely to come back!

>W-What's this year ruleset anon?
Only Pokemon from the Aloladex are allowed.
pastebin.com/4ddvU5Ai

Yes, the Ultra Beasts are allowed

>B-But the UB are broken!
No they are not, stop being a reactionary dummy. Stop thinking things are broken just because they have one very good stat. Notice how all their other stats are below or very below average. They don't even reach 580BST.

>B-But Mega Mom and Mega Mence!
Megas are not allowed this year so that Z-Crystals and Moves can be shilled properly.

>W-What's good this year then?
Things that can be expected to be good are things that have always been good like Garchomp, Salamence, Gengar, etc. Of the new Pokemon? The most prominent are obviously the Tapus as they all have excellent typings, BST an abilities. Expect them to see them very often and to pack something agaisnt them.

Here's a few pages that have small compilations of interesting or good Pokemon or usual VGC staples.

>W-When's the earliest official event for this format?
It'll be on London between the 9 and 11 of February. It'll be the first of many International Championships.

Yes, TCPi thought it was a good idea to make a Nat-levels tourney as the first tourney of the format with less than a month for a meta to establish and for people to play the game and to breed their teams.

Not that anyone who cared wasn't theorymonning and will just inject it or playing the leak already but you know, it's still bad planning as those aren't supposed to be.

>don't see a glimpse of any old Pokemon except for Ash dumping his Kalos mon's balls at home and fucking off to Alola without even considering bringing some Pokemon to the beach
They really are trying to weed out the old, aren't they?

>is the chillest of the Tapus, basically isn't a dick or straight up kills Pokemon/people that don't deserve it and only battles if it must
>Is the slowest of the Tapus, meaning whenever it's sent out against one Grassy Surge will always activate last
>Takes a massive shit on anything with Wood Hammer not named Skarmory, Celesteela, Ferrothorn, Scizor, Genesect, and only SOME box legendaries
>Is an amazing support pokemon that fits well on a lot of teams and synergizes perfectly with Heatran, as Grassy Terrain reduces Earthquake damage and they cover each other's weaknesses
>Demolishes the cancerfest known as Lando-T/Lando-I

Need I go on? Best Tapu/Legendary in general.
