📖 A Look Back at VGC 2013

VGC 2013 was a historic season that brought Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 into the spotlight, shaping one of the most iconic metagames of the early modern VGC era. 🌍 Worlds that year took place in Vancouver, Canada, and it was where Italy’s Arash Ommati made history by winning the Masters Division with his weather-based team — marking the first time a European player claimed the title of World Champion. 🏆 Powerful Dragon-types like Latios, Hydreigon, and Garchomp were everywhere, while support picks like Amoonguss and Cresselia became staples of the format. 🐉🍄 It was a season remembered for creativity, balance, and one of the most groundbreaking wins in VGC history.
