I agree with all your points but you missed one thing when discussing necrozma. It can use power gem on the cm set to break through mandibuzz. I think the best set would be life orb calm mind with photon geyser heat wave and power gem or defensive sr as you mentioned to check things like terrakion.

I think kyurem and zeraora will continue to rise in usage. zeraora gaining access to play rough this gen made it alot better than last gen. It allows it to hit dragon types such as dragapult and kommo-o super effectively. life orb zeraora with four attacks; i find to be the most effective set...

It is possible but it would make the ban list complicated and I don't think smogon enjoys doing complex bans as it usually ends up being a mess.

In my opinion, dynamax should be outright banned. no complex ban is going to stop dynamax from being strong in this metagame. There are pokemon outside of ubers that are viable dynamax users. The mechanic itself has little counterplay because the majority of dynamax moves and other...

I think right now Swoobat is a threat. It has one of the highest speed tiers in the tier only being naturally outsped by ninjask and persian and by scarfers. This makes revenge killing options limited after setup. It gained access to nasty plot this gen which after one boost makes its an...

working on reqs in free time but gonna post some reasons about why dynamax should be banned. 1. Breaks choiced items/not item locked- The purpose of choiced items is to give a mon benefits at the cost of being locked into one move. Dynamax ignores this concept and forces 50/50s in situations...

Image from pokemon database Gastrodon @ Leftovers Ability: Storm Drain EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD Sassy Nature - Scald - Recover - Toxic - Earthquake Gastrodon, in my opinion; they both cover each others weaknesses completely. Threats to this core would be miscellaneous pokemon like icium-z...
