Sorry for the super late update, I know we're on a different meta now but I did say we'd still be taking updates into account for this meta so here we are. Going to keep this nice and simple since there haven't been too many nominations. Ultimately we decided to keep Kartana and Garchomp at their current spots, so there's not much to change. However, for a quick summary:
Slowking (Galar) rises from B- to B+. This was a pretty much unanimous agreement that more or less lines up with the discussion in this thread, Galarian Slowking is a fairly popular recent trend and has seen solid results on teams that can capitalize on the Future Sight pressure. Galarian Slowking follows in the footsteps of its OU presence with the rise of Future Sight's usage, though ultimately its probably not going too much higher than this since it's somewhat team-reliant. However, Galarian Slowing
really stands out lately so it's hard to deny that it's deserving of a rise.
Registeel moves from UR to C+. While this one comes a bit out of nowhere, Registeel saw a very surprising surge in usage last season and a great deal of respect from some of our VR team, mostly notably from greilmercenary9. With its impressive natural bulk and Light Clay Lapras as a teammate, Iron Defense and Amnesia both make Registeel a very bulky tank that handles Max Airstream spam very well, while also boasting a powerful Body Press to actually threaten foes. Similar to Slowking, this is simply a case of people realizing that Registeel can actually be effective, though it's not quite at the level of relevance of Galarian Slowking of course.
That's about it for now though, with BSPL coming around I'm sure we'll see some trends in that environment so hopefully we'll get a chance to revisit this in the future. As a quick note I know that there's been some questions about a VR for Series 10, details TBD on if/when that goes up but it will likely be a more trimmed down list similar to the Series 8 VR. In the meantime
I'd recommend checking out that list but note that Pokemon that utilized Dynamax are not as standout in Series 10 (Airstreamers, Lapras, etc). Otherwise feel free to discuss any trends or odd placements on this VR as always!
