‘We are so back’: VGC players celebrate Legendary Pokémon exclusions in new regulations

The Regulation H ruleset was just announced for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Ranked Battles, and VGC players were pleasantly surprised to learn what’s in store for the metagame.

From Sept. 1 to Jan. 5, 2025, Regulation H will take over Scarlet and Violet Ranked Battles, removing all Legendary Pokémon and Paradox Pokémon. This will no doubt cause a huge shift in the meta since many Legendary and Paradox ‘mons have been dominating Regulation G. Urshifu, Calyrex, Miraidon, Raging Bolt, and Iron Hands, for example, are some of the most popular ‘mons right now—and they’ll all be banned once Reg H begins.
