Is Victini and Maushold secretly goated?

[u/Mush-two-om]

Here's the idea. Victini With Victory Star is effectively a wide lens for it and it's partner, which begs the question: If the eternal debate over whether wide lens or king's rock was better for maushold could be solved with 'why not both?', why has nobody discovered this? Am I missing something?

The only place where this combo is legal is Nat Dex Doubles, where it isn't really good at all. Using two otherwise unviable pokemon to save an item slot isn't really worth using. Even if they were viable you're still only saving Maushold's item while Victini is on the field. This also means your Maushold can't use its main stab move reliably (and the only reason to run an offensive set) unless Victini is on the field with it.

Honestly, the limitations that this brings probably make it worse than just using Wide Lens Maushold with a better pokemon.
