Does anyone else think that Mythicals and Legendaries in ranked is boring as hell? Just the same overpowered mons every battle. People actually have fun doing these?
>>
The only way Reg J could work is as a double restricted + one mythical format.
There's no reason to not just use your Reg I team because the strats involving the mythicals are generally gimmicky. Even the best among them, Magearna, is generally going to use the scarf Annihilape final gambit gimmick to set up.

>extreme speed arceus
oh boy so much fun woohoo
>>

Arceus has decent without any gimmicky strats in my opinion.
>>
Yes, anon.
I'm sure you're the only special snowflake in the whole wide world who thinks legendaries are le bad and feels threatened by the oh so horrible and broken phiones and mesprits dominating the metagame.
Definitively never heard that one before ever.

Why are you so hateful? Can you explain why you think SV ranked is better with legendaries and mythicals, rather than complain about nonexistant snowflakes?
>>
>>58199427
>phione and mesprit
whoa i didn’t know people pick those two over deoxys
who knew
>>
It's literally the exact same meta dominated by Calyrex and the bike lizards but now you occasionally have to deal with an Arceus or Magearna
>>
Oh yeah, I'd also prefer Regulation J be a single Mythical and no restricteds.
I think that would lead to maximum gimmick teams and some actually fun team building.
>>
>>58199485
OP said legendaries too. I’m assuming he means all legendaries and mythicals.

This whole regulation just seems like GF collecting data on how strong mythicals actually are when compared directly with restricteds. Likely testing the waters for how they want to treat mythicals in future Champions formats.

Rayquaza is unironically the better extreme speed user.
Clear Amulet, Swords Dance, Protect, and Dragon Ascent. Tera Normal.

It's a rental system so just make them cost more to rent.
>>
>>58199533
They did it in SwSh though too.
They're not preferable to the restricteds, especially the gen 8 and 9 ones.
>>
Where to find rental codes?

>Can you explain why you think SV ranked is better with legendaries and mythicals
No one said this
>>
>>58199582
Then I’m glad we agree.

Sword and Shield's iteration of this was fucking retarded, as the only restriction was species clause. There was nothing stopping you from running 5 restricteds + Incineroar or Magearna. Making mythicals take up a restricted slot still seems a little like overkill, but it's probably fairer to those who don't have access to more mythicals and there are some mythicals (the aformentioned Arceus and Magearna) who are on the same level as many restricteds and this worth using. Ideally, you either have a tier system where you have 1 restricted (current ones plus Arceus), two second tier (mythical/powerhouses/paradoxes/other legendaries), and three of anything else, or you have a straight BST cap and try to build a team under that cap with no species banned. That latter idea would be very confusing for the average player and is hard to implement, but would be interesting.
