Battle Center Discussion #2 - Impact of Team Preview in the Metagame
Welcome to the second instalment of the BCD, in which the Battle Center has a weekly discussion thread for different aspects of the Metagame. Related things will be posted every Wednesday, ranging from Pokemon, to moves, abilities, strategies and more. At the end of the week, the old thread will be unstickied, but people are still free to post in it, and a new one will take its place. If you have any suggestions for future discussion topics, post in the thread or PM a Battle Center Moderator.
This week's discussion topic is the Team Preview aspect of battles, introduced with the advent of Gen V.
How has it affected battling? Are some older strategies not viable now? What Pokemon benefit or lose out as a result of this? Do you think it was a step in the right direction? This is the place to talk about it!
