ITT: sum up a meta for a generation

Gen4
Garchomp and Stealth Rock.
Also the most fun meta.

VGC17
Tapus, UBs, Garchomps, doggies, weather, terrain, Trick Room.
I like it.

>Gen1
>When you Thunder Wave the opposing Slowbro with your Starmie because you got Thunder Waved first and don't want him to crit but he switches in Golem who proceeds to explode into your Exeggutor but it's ok because you barely survive and explode on the incoming Dragonite who used agility and proceeds to wrap your Tauros to death since you forgot you could switch into Gengar during Wrap and then you make your Gengar use Hypnosis on the Dragonite after his Earthquake misses and you proceed to explode on the incoming Alakazam and the crit wins you the game or so you thought but his Snorlax Hyper Beam crits your Jolteon once and then explodes on your Zapdos and crits you the right on the next turn and you lose because you cannot do jackshit to Chansey with a paralyzed Starmie.

daily reminder that people who said Gen 4 was the best meta were either too young to play it, or have nostalgia dictating their opinion

Ah yes, weatherwars, Smogonbird's bizarre adventure and Dugstall are much better metas.
