Starting to hate Amoonguss paired up with Tyranitar. lol Tornadus has a hard time with two,especially since FOCUS BLAST misses every switch into T-Tar ftw. People are already getting creative with this sudden change.
Haxorus needs ONLY 1 turn, not having the most difficult pokes to kill removed from the game AND 1 free turn...

I run Superpower Tornadus-T for that very reason. Give it a shot.
And Meloetta faces mostly the same problem because scarfers are everywhere......it also needs anything faster than it removed. hax isn't exactly bulky, and its base speed screams 'please revenge kill me!'
While Techinician will be a godsend for Breloom, Breloom will still have the same problems it had before, such as low speed and its relative frailty. Still, Techniloom will be a bit scary.
I honestly think they should retest Garchomp and Excadrill. Rain will be OP thanks to Keldeo, and the other weathers don't have much to make them as powerful as rain at the moment. Sun only got Roost Volcarona and Giga Drain Venusaur, and I feel like that's still not enough to combat Rain. In fact, I've been running my own rain team.
Where does Iron Head fit? SD/EQ/Rock Slide/Rapid Spin or Shadow Claw or Return or Iron Head? There isn't that much space, EQ, SD, Rock Slide, and Rapid Spin are indispensable. Shadow Claw/Return are already a hard thing to justify, but 30% flinch hax for no additional coverage? I wouldn't use it tbh. I support the retesting of Excadrill/Garchomp/Thundurus, though everything else banned should stay gone.I pretty much agree with SlimMan. Yeah I think everyone is forgetting Excadrill now has iron head, I don't think its wise to bring it don't just because Breloom can now beat it. Doexys-S would be more of a pain too. I honestly wouldn't mind a retest of Thundurus and Garchomp, heck we have a stronger Thundurus in the meta right now, I can live with Garchomp hax to. Im kinda split on Blaziken though, it might actually not be that bad with all the increased rain and slowbro in this meta, but then again if was banned in dream world for Christs sake. Past that though, fuck no, no Skymin, Manaphy, Doexy-N, and Darkria for the love of God.
Garchomp I am against bringing back for one reason. You can check Keldeo, and you can check Thundurus-T, and you can counter things, and whatever. But as long as Sand is up, Garchomp is un-checkable. Because you could always miss. It means that if you are not running Rain/Sun/Hail, then your team is automatically unable to check Garchomp, regardless of what Scarfers or Skarmory or whatever that you have. That just does not seem healthy for the metagame to me. It's not that Garchomp is significantly stronger than the rest of the metagame, it's that there is NO way to guarantee his demise in Sand.
Rough Skin Gible is also in the Cold Cave.

Edit: Right. STAB Technician Mach Punch will help offset its frailty. I might use Breloon since I'll be stuffed for team slots for my rain team.
Oh gosh not this request again.Can we please just hit Sand Veil already?
Calling it now that Breloom doesn't get Spore! Shroomish is the one that learns Spore and releasing only Breloom seems fishy.

Since now all Pokes with Sand Veil had a secondary ability available, how about banning the ability for to rely on hax?
