I think there's way worse pokemon to be banning before looking at Spectier who gets screwed by normal and dark types. Instead you should be looking at scale shot Garchomp, the Tapus and the regenerators. They're way more broken and warp the whole metagame towards them.

I think the metagame will now revolve around the 5 poke gods: Xerneas With Zacian-C gone that's one less fairy resist. Necrozma DM still walls it pretty hard but if Necrozma has already been taken out it'll just steamroll teams as Geomancy sets go awol. Calyrex SR I know a lot of people...

I agree it's just to breaindead to use. Just spam wicked blow and blow sh#t up. It's faster than most it's checks so even if it resists wicked blow, it still gets wrecked by poison jab, aerial ace or close combat. Let's not forget it can bait counters with u-turn and proceed to let something...

Lol all these people bitching about Calyrex-SR which gets hard walled by Yvettal and taken out by snarl! Also Marshadow easily revenge kills it and shadow sneakers and sucker punchers in general kill it. But Zacian can overpower and of it's supposed counters. Wild charge kills Ho-oh. Sword...

Dynamax should not be banned in my opinion. Uber is the one of the only tiers that it is allowed in and if you remove it, uber loses its character. I don't believe it is overcentralizing either. That dishonour goes to Ditto. Dynamax only lasts 3 turns and although there aren't any Tapus in...

I hate Swampert. Flip turn has made it a bane on the metagame. Once again water type favouritism goes to far.

You're missing the most devastating set Stakataka @ Leftovers Ability: Beast Boost EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD Relaxed Nature - Body Press - Heavy Slam/Gyro Ball - Iron Defense - Trick Room Iron defense makes you a physical powerhouse that can tank hits and OHKO/2HKO a lot of pokemon.

Calyrex can hold items true. But it's just so easy to stop compared to Zacian. Any decent pokemon with shadow sneak or suckerpunch can lay it out. So it's checks are too numerous to reasonably take out. Also what about normal types? Blissey can just sit there taking astral barrage all day and...

I was getting hyped over Meteor beam doing a 120 damage and granting +SpA. Until I found out it was effectively Rock type SpA skull bash, a 2 turn move.

I hate that this thing is back. It hard walls too many pokemon like Volcarona and 1/2 of all fairies.

Astral Barrage can hit neutral but it needs the +1 after a kill to be a real threat. Zacian gets the +1 from the get go. Plus Calyrex is only marginally faster than Zacian so scarfers are still an option against it. Zacian doesn't have any crippling quadruple weaknesses and can laugh off most...

Calyrex is way overhyped as a threat. Yveltel can switch in and destroy it and marshadow can revenge kill it. Heck the thing has 4x weaknesses to ghost and dark moves which have wide distribution in ubers. Calyrex can't run coverage moves like Zacian can. Ho-oh gets mauled by wild charge...
