The reason I built my team the way I did was because it had to be from the Kalos Dex. Now that the rules are more open, there are so many more possibilities!

Ooh! Do you have any ideas yet? :D I wonder what the new most popular thing will be, or it will still be Mega Kangaskhan xD

Mega Kanghaskhan can be countered now. Mega Gallade cannot flinch, which means the general 'astonish and fake out spam' style is useless against him. I am going to have a Mega Gallade in all my Teams, and bring him in if I see Kanghaskhan. I will also keep a lot of potential Megas in my team to keep the opponent somewhat confused.

Ooh interesting! :O There are seriously so many different options, I wouldn't even know where to start. xD

Last year's rules were so dumb as you could only use Pokemon from the Kalos Dex. Therefore, you see Mega Kangaskhan and Aegislash in almost every single team. Now that we can use the National Dex, we can use more Pokemon so I'm hoping we more variety in the Teams. I'm actually excited for VGC '15, even if I don't actually participate. xD I've heard that Battle Spot Doubles also uses these rules so it'll be good practice to everyone participating. I'm making a team to use on Battle Spot Doubles so this will be fun.

@Kaoru You feel like earning yourself some more Maison Items? I intend on getting a box together of tourney worthy pokemon and will need some help with the breeding aspect of it.
