Team Rocket Elite 05/30/18 10:53:12 PM #178:	LusterSoldier posted... What's the possibility of the 2019 VGC season taking place on the Let's Go games? It would be pretty odd to see a metagame limited to only Gen 1 Pokemon, but it could also be interesting to see some Pokemon shine in a metagame where they would be otherwise irrelevant if there was a larger pool of Pokemon to choose from. It's hard to imagine USUM being used for a second straight VGC season, although ORAS was used for 2 seasons (2015 and 2016). It's hard to say. We know very little about the competitive battling aspects of Let's Go. The article says there's no breeding. That means Let's Go would need a replacement system to get Pokemon with the IVs you want. There are no wild Pokemon. That means Let's Go needs a way for Pokemon to get EVs. Gen 1 Pokemon + Alolan formes only is also fairly restrictive. I suspect they will try to force it and have VGC played under Let's Go even if it isn't really that great an idea. --- This was not the best year for my bracket.
