DISCLAIMERS ON FORMATS COVERED:
Notice I said POPULAR formats, meaning a format where there is a significant amount of people who compete in it for tournaments and so on and so forth.
For the record, I do not care what rules or formats people play their battles by nor am I saying these formats are the only formats that should be played. The way you play Pokemon is between you and your opponent. I just like examining popular tournament formats.

You know, as someone interested in philosophy, i find Zekroms career quite poetic. Just as the ideals it represents it was strong at the beginning, then when power creep settled in, it struggled and fell to the wayside until Gen 8 put a check on it, where it again begin to thrive until the DLCs brought the power creep again. It mirrors the nature of ideals perfectly. They are very strong and tempting when first proposed, then begin to struggle with reality, especially when power is involved, and after power is put under restrictions, they can be truly realized.
