Where the clauses changes to suit the individual, not the other way around. Where power and justice are back where they belong: in the hands of the people! Where every player is free to think - to act - for himself! F*** all these limp-dick mods and chickenshit councils. F*** this 24-hour Internet spew of ragebait and clickbait bullshit! F*** Pokemon balance! F*** the tiers! F*** ALL OF IT! Smogon is diseased. Rotten to the core. There's no saving it - we need to pull it out by the roots. Wipe the slate clean. BURN IT DOWN! And from the ashes, a new Smogon will be born. Evolved, but untamed! The weak will be purged and the strongest will thrive - free to live as they see fit, they'll make Pokemon great again!... In my new Showdown, players will lose and win for what they BELIEVE! Not for avatars. not for ELO! Not for what they're told is right. Every player will be free to fight his own battles!" -Complete "Big Boss" Zygarde, before promptly being banned from OU.

      Zydog is really one of the best glowups gamefreak has given us. I was getting sick and tired of Legendary pokemon always looking like machine like monsters or ugly dragon abominations, like they forget pokemon appeal to people cause they're cute and cool looking, not weapons of mass destruction. But this WAS the generation where Masuda and Sugimori admitted they deliberately made pokemon ugly or unappealing cause they didn't want them all to look "cool" and I get that, but.... the choices they make always seems to be spiteful against the FANS of the series.

    One of my favorite theories is that Guzzlord is a corrupted Zygarde. So much of the theory makes so much sense, and when a fan asked James Turner (the designer of Guzzlord) if the theory was true, his response was, “Ah...that’s something I think I can’t go into too much.

    love that, since its three forms are all the same pokemon, That technically makes Zyguarde the Most banned pokemon ever, Because its forms keep getting banned from tier after tier, In gen 8 10% got banned from like 3 tiers XD

    Im still mad Complete Zygarde didn’t have the Inverse battle ability; it was always weird that as Zygarde was supposed to counter Yveltal and Xerneas, both of them where immune to one of Zygarde’s stabs.
    In Kalos there was that one house next to Zygarde’s cave, where you could battle an ”inverse battle” where all type matchups were completely reversed. It was a cool idea that Complete Zygarde would have had an ability based on this effect, where it reverses the type matchups while on the field, and suddenly the Dragon moves are super effective on Xerneas while Ground moves to Yveltal. This would have also created many other interesting scenarios in Ubers.

    How I'd fix Aura Break:
    It would continue to affect auras as normal (even if new auras eventually are made.)
    However, it would naturally reduce the power of super effective hits like filter/solid rock.
    That's that. Zygarde is such a cool third "box" legendary.
