      ... yeah, disappointing I couldn't add MORE common grammar; speling errors into that sentence... I feel like a failure on that front... there has got to be some way to misuse there/their/they're in that sentence, while having noun to pronoun relationship confusion showing up (that is when a WHICH noun a pronoun refers to is really really unclear)... I even manage to mess up latter/ladder/later, than/then--and manage to mess up the word "allot" in a way that isn't the standard "a lot/allot" (yes, abuse of a semicolon is just shooting fish in a barrel)
      *edit* : the reason I am excited for the you're/your fuck up, was originally that was me attempting to mix up "this/that/over there", until I remembered that isn't a feature of the English language and thus not a common issue in English xD

      Same. Dragonite is OK but for a Pseudo Legendary, Dragonite sucks. I used a Dragonite a lot in Pokemon Stadium and while it had the best Atk stat, the lack of ANY good moves for it meant that you were forced to wait until it learned Hyper Beam or just treat it as a Special Sweeper. Unless you wanted to cheese with Wrap as Dragonite was the best trapper in the Gen though I was never patient enough for such a slow strategy.

      Pokés that just start with a normal attack (non-stab) or worse just run into a Brock-Wall for like an hour, unless you can make it up later like Mew because of an insane movepool, it's just brutal.
      Hence why gamefreak used rock for the first 3 of 4 gyms, and fire/fighting for 3 - rock is the perfect "first gym" type if you give the fire starter metal claw or a fighting move. Everyone early game poké has jack shit to deal with it, but the starters will sweep through it. Makes rock pokémon look way more intimidating. Like, Onix is legendarily garbage and only impressive exactly as Brock's ace because it's high-level for that point in the game and then its defence which makes up nearly half its BST means something.
      Now imagine GF learned their lesson and stopped making the ice gym 7th or higher every gen since it also would be a wonderful early gym with its glass cannon nature when not everyone and their mom has an answer to them.

    I feel like Starmie has a chance of being up there with the legendary birds. Brock is a joke, letting you plow past gym 1 right away. Despite the fact it doesn't learn moves on its own, you get BubbleBeam very early. Once you get past Misty and Surge the run opens up a lot. And both of those fights aren't horrible. Starmie can even learn thunderbolt from Surge and put it to good use. But the run really starts to get stupid if you pick up both ice beam and psychic.

      SwSh were not balanced around infinite grinding in the wild area. You can easily break the game if you do that, not just by getting good moves but also by being very overleveled quickly. The TMs in comparison are way worse, probably about as bad as in gen 2, so you will lack good moves if you don't abuse the wild area.

      Unfortunately arcanine has a pretty mediocre move pool. Takedown and ember are its starting moves, and while it does get access to dig and body slam, that’s about all it can do. Gyarados is sure to be a pain to get past in the endgame.

      @Claude Von Riegan Best starter against Starmie is Venusaur; Blastoise can't do shit to Starmie while Starmie learns Thunderbolt, while Venusaur can be hit by Psychic but if it's not OHKO'd it'll actually deal serious damage back, including being able to bypass badge boosts with Razor Leaf.

    • @kaathesacolyte2943
      @kaathesacolyte2943 Před 3 lety

      My personal pick is Dugtrio; starts off with a 100 base power ground move in dig, has a 100% chance to crit with slash and can learn body slam and rock slide. With dig it breezes past brock, Misty might give some trouble but you could always do the rival and nuggest bridge first, Surge is a joke as is Koga. By the time you get around to Ericka it should have Slash which will deal with some of the grass Pokemon. Sabrina isn't an issue with Dugtrio's speed and Blane also becomes a joke. Giovanni will be easy and then it gets Earthquake. Earthquake mops up Loreli, Bruno and Agatha. Lance is a bit trickier but hopefully a crit slash should be enough to deal with gyarados.

    • @OmegaTyrant
      @OmegaTyrant Před 3 lety

      ​@Claude Von Riegan Except again, Blastoise can't do anything to Starmie, all it gets are crappy Normal moves or moves that are resisted by Starmie on top of having mediocre Special, while Venusaur can actually kill a healthy Starmie if it isn't OHKO'd. Venusaur's Special is also higher than Blastoise's in Gen 1, so a STAB Psychic isn't doing that much more damage to it than Thunderbolt is to Blastoise, both should be either getting 2HKO'd or OHKO'd after badge boosts. Plus there are multiple Rival battles earlier in the game before Starmie can get Psychic (Starmie can't get Psychic until you get the TM, and Starmie won't learn any other Psychic-type moves before then).

    To be honest, Dragonite is very similar to Gyarados. Only 20 more base stats overall and a very similar stat distribution too. Of course he's trading the Water typing for Dragon which is slightly better resistance wise but misses out on STAB Surf/Hydropump and can't actually learn Hydropump, yet he can still Surf oddly enough. All in all the extra resistances Dragon offers over Water are rather insignificant by the time you make it to the elite 4 whereas STAB Surf and access to Hydropump can come in handy(depending on your rival's composition mostly) but isn't crucial or anything. So slightly better stats, slightly worse Water moves, all in all pretty even and thus I expected very similar results.
