Hi, I got my favorite card yesterday primal groudon ex but it says it’s banned from standard and expanded. Which doesn’t make sense as it is not that overpowered, in fact the new EX have more HP and power. Does anyone know why it’s banned?

thanks

    Not yet expanded only has sun and moon forward but it’s in beta so I think they would probably announce when expanded is going out of beta
