I was going to wait until Open finished to bring this up, but I feel pretty strongly about this. For me, I find Shift Gear to be an extremely broken move. It elevates Mega Scizor, Scizor, Jirachi, Excadrill, and even Bisharp to incredibly dangerous levels, and it heavily constricts teambuilding in the metagame. I often find myself needing to bring a Vacuum Wave Keldeo, a Sucker Punch Hoopa-U, and a King's Shield Heatran, which tends to be really inconvenient when I'm trying to build a flexible offense. I also don't want Scizorite and Jirachi bans, because I feel like Shift Gear is the root of the problem here and all these Pokemon bans feels really excessive. These Steel-types can even be used on the same team, and run lure sets or Swords Dance over Shift Gear to KO or weaken generally popular 'Shift Gear counters' (Grass Knot Bisharp, Swords Dance Bisharp, Icy Wind + Energy Ball Jirachi).
