Shortly after the release of Pokémon Home I made a video talking about how Zamazenta-Hero is breaking the gen 9 competitive singles scene and at the time, many players agreed with that statement. Zamazenta was even voted on for a quickban twice, barely even surviving the first wave. Since then Zamazenta has been suspect tested as well and has survived the suspect test too, with 45% voting pro ban which is not even close to the required 60%. Zamazenta started of as a massive threat that the majority of players deemed banworthy, but as time went on this seems to no longer be the case, despite Zamazenta not being changed at all. So what changed?
