I am considering VGC this year seeing as I don't want to play cards atm bc I will be spending most cards time on FF.

I will be diving in to ranked singles heavily though. Honestly so keen for GMax Lapras.

That said I think that the meta is heavily evolving at the moment, Greedent being high tier legitimately freaks me out. I feel like Hawlucha has been top threat in testing as it can break WP Ttar. I also feel like Bisharp is going to emerge as strong anti meta to counter Grimmsnarl. Also Bellossom is a niche threat that can deal with many top tier threats like Excadrill and Ttar. Max Defensive Bellossom can 1v1 Gmax Arcanine in Sun.

For VGC I want to see if there is any merit to Togedumaru. I 'think' it is likely the best nuzzle user in the tier with the T Wave nerfs last gen.

Will be interesting how this shakes up competitive metagames bc there is currently a very steep viable pyramid.

If everyone wants something anti meta to take to the ranked ladder.

Bellossom with 33% berry can solo Mimkyu, Excadrill, Dracovish, and Ttar.
