G-Max Vine Lash is one of the reasons why Gigantamax Venusaur was seeing a lot of play. The strong initial damage is good enough by itself, but the fact that it dealt continuous damage for four turns made Vine Lash one of the best G-Max moves.

Vine Lash matched well with the bulkiness of Venusaur as it allowed your team to stall out a couple of turns.
