In this video, we look at Gen 1's latest set of bans: The much-expected Lapras, and, with an interesting twist of fate, long-standing UU lifer Hypno. There's a lot that goes into the bannings of these two Pokemon, both top-tiers that warped the metagame significantly; expect to see a very different tier after this!
