My Regidrago WC2024 deck is now showing as invalid for standard matches, Can anyone explain what is going on? I noticed a few other decks which I have also acquired are also now invalid for standard matches.

Thanks in advance!!!

    Only cards from scarlet violet onwards are legal in standard legal now because of set rotations

    Today, regulation (reg.) I has been released. This means that only cards in reg. G onwards (Scarlet & Violet cards) are valid.

    Rotation has hit, and some archetypes (Lugia VSTAR, Regidrago VSTAR, Lost Box, and Snorlax Stall) have lost their main cards. This happens around this time annually, but regionals will still use the BRS-PRE format for another two weeks.
