Why is Keldeo banned in official formats like Championships and

>>27170352
All mythical/event-exclusive mons are banned.

>>27170360
Legendaries should be banned too. You might actually see some variety in that case.

>>27170502
Legendaries should stay in battle facilities as they bring extra challenge. Agree with Nintendo formats tho. Trainer irl attempt to use the most powerful shit available.

>>27170502
Thats not true at all bro
Shit like articuno is way worse than most pokemon

Event-exclusive Pokemon are banned, presumably because it puts new players at a disadvantage (as they were not able to obtain the event Pokemon when they didn't have the game).

Other legendary Pokemon are allowed because they can be obtained through the game by normal means. Generally limits are placed on Mewtwo and the box-art legendaries since they all have a higher BST than pretty much every Pokemon. The other legendary Pokemon are theoretically no stronger than pseudo-legendaries because they have the same BST.

Is it worth it Wasting a slot on your team for such a shitty gamble pokemon?

"Mythical" pokemon is super dumb.
You can use non-mythical event pokemon in official tourney, I've used a number like Sludge wave Gengar and Endeavor Pikachu. No different than how exclusive Mythical pokemon are.
