      Tbh Primal Kyogre isn't incredibly op as its Choiced sets. The only reason why Primal Kyogre is more viable is because it can cancel Primal Groudon's weather. If P-don gets banned, Choiced Kyogre would be the king of ubers again, with mixed Primal Kyogre only appearing from time to time.
      Primal Groudon and Mega Ray are definitely overpowered though.

      In the anime, Groudon fought Kyogre with Solarbeam.
      In competitive, Primal Groudon tends to have the overall advantage against Primal Kyogre. Reason being that while Kyogre is effectively neutered in the sun and is forced to fall back on Ice Beam for damage, Groudon's Precipice Blades is still astronomically powerful, sun or rain, and gets STAB. Thus Groudon is still a very threatening foe in heavy rain.

    I love the Gen 4 Battle Revolution Model just... straight up jumping when it uses Earthquake. That's just funny to me

    Groudon, kyogre, and rayquaza are still the best box art legendaries. They felt so powerful and looked so iconic.
