      Galarian Corsola's also one of the few with the dubious honor of being better than its final evolution; they only really want to be tanks, and Galarian Corsola + Eviolite has better defensive stats than Cursola.

      Yeah and the pokemon community are DYING to have it back and spitting on gmax, like what the actually fuck

      @@bluecrasher7710 mega evolution was overrated, and made the meta super stale. Dynamax is easily the best gimmick so far

      @@AshenDust_ Idk just felt like a instant win button for me. It came to the point that they banned it from Ubers, while Most Megas were in OU or lower. However I do agree that the gimmicks are stale.
      (I know Mega Raquaza exists and it was really busted. It was an outlier. Don’t crucify me for that.)

      @@Phoenix_Star566 Mega Kangaskhan was also super broken, and in singles Dynamax might feel like a Z Move x3, but in doubles it really helps the meta imo. Having support Pokémon for your Dynamax Mon is a good strategy that wouldn’t have appeared as much without it, and it leads to all sorts of strategy in team building, like having 2 or 3 Dmax mons for extra flexibility, or only one, to have the others be more suited to a role outside of Dmax. It also makes otherwise bad Pokémon pretty good, like Durant or Palkia

    These were a blast and a fun way to see the newer gen Pokemon, having not played the games. You ever thought about doing some Digimon rankings?
