I like VGC because of how it is more focused on strategy, how you are able to run team types more effective (Rain, Trick Room, Tailwind etc.) and the speed at which the game flows. Smogon is great as well because it opens more room for experimentation since they have an established tier system, allowing players various meta games to play in and learn (yes OU singles and NU singles are two different beasts trsut me). When it boils down to it, both styles hold equal status because in the end its all about having fun. The rules for each format aren't anything unreasonable and are adequate in controlling the meta game and competitiveness of the game itself.
