@DinomiteVGC Yeah, formats with multiple dominant top tiers have been perfectly fine in the past. The 3 megas at the top literally just do too much

Are we ready for the uncomfortable conversation that it's actually the mega evolutions ruining the format or is it too early for that

@OomBlinx Unfortunately I don’t think one mon is enough to do it, especially one that frail. I’ve tried so many things to have a safe lead into these teams and I’m close to believing it’s just not possible. I’m far from the best though, maybe someone will find something

@ChessBoard__ I’m curious if someone figures out a way to build a way to break the meta teams with Lopunny? It is weak to mega dactyl but is pretty great against that entire core of Sneasler, regular Dactyl, Gambit, Basculegion, etc. Only Mon I can think of that can handle multiple of them.

@sorrytotweet The offensive core on dactyl teams is just too solid for a true counter team. They have enough tools that even if you can find a decently favored matchup, you’ll still likely lose to at least one of the many you’ll face throughout a tournament run.

@ChessBoard__ Given how centralised the meta is, it's surprising we aren't seeing more anti-meta teams seeing some degree of success.

@FyroxZ Spell tag last respects with 3 teammates knocked out. 200 base power is pretty ridiculous, even if you’re a special attacker

@Nnhhhgghhh Heracross is actually the least likely on the list to ohko by a long shot due to needing good rolls on all 5 hits, but if they’re modest it’s nearly guaranteed 32/32+ 0.53% ohko 32/32 92.16% ohko Multihit calcs are always very weird lol

@ChessBoard__ 32+ SpA Scovillain-Mega Leaf Storm vs. 32 HP / 2 SpD Milotic: 210-248 (103.9 - 122.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO granted, not sure how good of an idea it is to run offensive Mega Scovillain
