I know, I play competitively. I was just referring to the fact that even in smogon Ubers, they are pretty broken. Although somehow the Ubers Tier manages to self regulate itself. I love volcarona too, but as much as I love it, I hate how it forces me to run a spinner as well so that it isn't completely useless when someone uses stealth rock.Capitano Segnaposto said:If you are going to be battling with others, then generally all "Legendary" Pokemon are banned. Legendaries are supposed to be OverPowered, hell just look at the Pseudo-Legendary Volcarona. At level 75 that thing is an absolute beast and can solo most of the end-game (at least in Pokemon Black/White).Fractral said:They say this every new gen. The bigger problem with this generation was the power creep- stuff like Excadrill being insane if you let it set up, and now the new Kyurem formes with their broken 170 Base attack stats. At least Deo-A could be taken with a priority move- these guys have decent bulk as well.emeraldrafael said:eh, every generation has bad designs, and really the first generation has had the majority of the worst. thats why I dont hang up on designs.TizzytheTormentor said:I think I misread the OP, All the Pokemon I selected were based on looks alone (because they do look awful, no matter how you look at it) and people keep telling me they are strong, which is not what I based them on.emeraldrafael said:-snip-

Then again, I'd probably use Starmie on my team anyway.
