This discussion of "forme clause" is getting nowhere, and is honestly unproductive. In fact, it only discourages further productive discussion about actual important aspects of the metagame, such as suspects we honestly need. I think some of you may know where I'm going with this, but after over 15 experienced players wrote in objections on the last community survey, I believe something needs to change.
Gholdengo needs to be Gholdengone.
This thing is an actual plague to any defensive builds, as its ability to prevent any viable removal outside of Cinderace, Maushold, and...
this guy =>

means that hazards are, in fact, staying up. One mon's metagame presence mandating that stall and fat run 6 boots or maybe 5 boots and a toxic orb is beyond metagame warping and honestly just this fact alone should warrant a ban. No mon in any metagame should force building mandates this heavily, but it doesn't stop there.
It's 130 spatk and 120 bp stab move with a small drawback and no immunities + nasty plot is SINISTER for punching holes, and its other stab + focus blast is unresisted outside of one singular fraud (

). It doesn't just ruin stall in the builder, it ruins stall and fat in the game by clicking Psyshock and forcing tera, when tera is NEEDED to deal with other stallbreaking staples like our favorite masked grass type. (It's not Meowscarada.)
It spreads status with twave and breaks with Hex, it recovers off any damage when dealing with passive threats, it blocks encore, taunt, wisp,twave, you name it. Its defensive and offensive typing is already excellent, it's ability drives it so far off the edge. It ignores stoss, body press, toxic, and eq with air balloon on, removing most of stall's ways of hitting it in return, while only being reliably defensively checked by tera steel amnesia clodsire.
Even after you kill it, it's already likely done its job, easily ohkoing tusk with mir, or treads with +2 shadow ball. Once dhengo is gone, you're likely not getting another chance to spin, and if you're just running foggers, dhengo is never going to die because all it needs to do is come in on defog attempts.
This mon is so constricting in every way possible and is beyond unhealthy in every sense of the word. PLEASE get this mon a
supect test. thanks !!
