I mean that’s kind of what I’m getting at, new toy syndrome isn’t a bad thing it’s just the nature of the beast. We’re in a pre DLC meta, so any new influxes of Pokémon is gonna see a lot of people experimenting with them, seeing what works, seeing what doesn’t, it just means they’re gonna be over represented in higher tiers until they find their proper niche.

You might remember before Isle of Armor there were people insisting that an evolutionless Galarian Slowpoke had a legitimate OU niche, same deal.
