Are any of the Gigantamax forms worth using in Gen 8 AG?

The higher tiered Pokemon with Gigantamax forms are Cinderace, Rillaboom, Melmetal, and the Urshifus, which some of, if not all don’t have much of a niche in Anything Goes. Plus, it requires you wasting your chance of dynamaxing another Pokemon, which could be used much more efficiently on different Pokemon in certain situations.If they are worth using, which is worth using and why? Please don’t make your reasoning something like “Gigantamax Cinderace, because he’s super cool!!!”

Urshifu SS is most likely the best Gigantamax Pokemon you can use because like I said in the comments its a great wall breaker and has a slightly stronger signature move than Urshifu RS. Tho it isn’t the best Pokemon to use in AG and isn’t used much in that format, the benefits that Urshifu has can’t be left unchecked because Its abilities make it super broken, which is why it is in Ubers, Assault Vest Urshifu can take out Calyrex SR, and can hit all the Necrozma forms hard. Choice band increases its power and wicked blow always results in a critical hit which is over powered. So based on all that, it’s worth it but only if you actually need it on your team for Gen 8 AG and not because (its strong / really broken), there are more Gigantamax Pokemon that can fill it’s Gigantamax role but most of them are not as viable in AG. here is an Urshifu set I made as an example, I really hope this helps answer your question.

GIGANTAMAX URSHIFUAGUrshifu-Gmax @Assault Vest /Choice BandAbility: Unseen FistEVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 SpeJolly Nature- Close Combat- Wicked Blow- Iron Head / Poison Jab- Stone Edge / U-turn

Close Combat –> Max KnuckleWicked Blow –> G-Max One BlowIron Head –> Max Steelspike / Poison Jab –> Max OozeStone Edge –> Max Rockfall / U-Turn –> Max Flutterby

• Close Combatstrong STAB and hits Dark-resistant foes mainly like Yveltal on the switch.- Wicked BlowSTAB and always results in a critical hit and it ignores protect and detect thanks to the ability Unseen Fist. When Gigantamaxed, Wicked Blow turns into"G-Max One Blow"and breaks through Max Guard and any protect like move.- Iron Head / Poison Jabboth hit fairy types while Iron Head has a good 30% chance to cause the opposing Pokemon to flinch and Poison Jab has a good 30% chance to cause the opposing Pokemon to be poisoned.- Stone Edgeis strong coverage that hits Flying Type Pokemon.- U-turnto pivot out of bad spots and to get other teammates in safely.

Ive also posted this set as an answer on “what’s a good move set for Urshifu” btw. Here is the website where I got the Gigantamax form from, it has all the other Pokemon sprites as well including mega forms.
