OK everyone, we're barely into the fifth generation and it's already abundantly clear that Swift Swim Pokemon + Drizzle Politoed is a ridiculously broken mix.
But I think we should give Drizzle a chance. Clearly the defining element of this generation is weather and I have an idea that might be able to preserve rain as a viable playstyle without it being this overpowering.
We ban the combination of Swift Swim + Drizzle on the same team. You can still use weatherless teams with Swift Swim Kingdra or something but no more of this specific team archetype. That way rain gets nerfed without being totally removed from the tier. Thoughts?
P.S. Because I am Aldaron and this is a proposal I am making, I think this should be called "Aldaron's Proposal".
