I feel that volkraken is a good pokemon. While it is true that it can be easily walled by specially bulky pokemon and is underwhelming at times, it fits a niche on many teams. You can run specs with analytic to heavily dent switch ins, or scarf to end games. People end a baton pass chain with it and run life orb, and sometimes they even run assault vest or sub lefty's. It can be a special wall and run aqua ring, and can run memento. It has many different sets, and while its not going to win every game, it can win some, set up some, and prey off the weak.
Once a wall like chansey is removed, it is a huge threat, but most teams in the play test were over prepared for it and the core it was designed for. Its an interesting cap, and while its not my favorite, it is better than many people think. I encourage all the people who design and participate in the creation of new caps to play the cap meta, as we in our little bubble of people are always looking for new people and ideas. Also, you get to continuously see your work in action.
