God-Says-No Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 No it sits in the PU tier where its still doesnt matter Quote
MegaNaraku Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 many would disagree  I used to murder people with my Breloom Quote
Skiles Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Paras and Parasect aren't great Pokemon. They aren't even comparable to other Pokemon in their type class. Â Now Jolteon... There's an underrated Pokemon. You take a Jolteon to the Elite Four, you have one Pokemon with a type advantage over Lorelei's entire team. If you're playing Yellow and you lose at Oak's lab, Gary will have both a Vaporeon and a Cloyster. Boom, that's two of Gary's Pokemon you have beat. And Jolteon has REALLY high speed and special. So you don't have to replace Thunderbolt with Thunder, because even though Thunderbolt isn't as strong, it's still completely sufficient, and you don't sacrifice the accuracy. Â tl;dr: Jolteon should get more love. Quote

André Toulon Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Raticate.....With proper speed boosting, and a guaranteed 50% with super fang, it can change the game in matches against tank Pokemon.  There are better options, sure, but no one wants it on their team because it's literally a fucking rat.....Not because it's garbage.

Skiles Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Hey you  I used to have powerful as fuck Gardevoir as well I don't know what that is, but we're supposed to be talking about Pokemon, sir. Quote
MegaNaraku Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 I don't know what that is, but we're supposed to be talking about Pokemon, sir.  Those are good Pokemon dammit Quote
Skiles Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 No, Raticate is shit Raticate is just fine. I usually keep one on my team right up until the end. Super Fang is extremely useful, Hyper Fang is kind of OP (the accuracy stops it from being too broken), and it's got great speed. Nothing wrong with a Ratic8, m8. Quote
Skiles Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Those are good Pokemon dammit I kid. I like to not count post-Gen 1 Pokemon because people get annoyed at Gen-1 purists. Quote

You're talking about using one for the campaign designed to let you win no matter what bugrat trash you have on your team. Buddy's talking about Raticate being viable in competitive battles vs other human people who may up the ante with a lot of shit talking. That's no environment for rat fangs Quote
MegaNaraku Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 I kid. I like to not count post-Gen 1 Pokemon because people get annoyed at Gen-1 purists. Â I know you're fucking around but yeah I understand that. Tbh I'm a fan of older Pokemon. I hate a lot of new ones, but I do like Gardevoir a lot. Some of my favorites are honestly Gardevoir, Garchomp, Giratina, Dragonite, Gengar, and Milotic. Quote
Leon Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Not enough with the Gardevoir fetishising  Fixed. Quote

Danger_Jules Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Aipom. Â Sure it's not a top class Pokemon competitively, but it's still in a way, considerably more useful than Ampibom (Who can't even use Evolite to boost those crappy defenses). Quote

It actually does indeed get the job done, especially against low defense Pokemon like Alakazam and Electabuzz.  It's own defense is too low for it to last long, however. Ratty is more a "dish it out, but can't take it" Pokemon. Quote

Phillies Posted January 24, 2017 Author Posted January 24, 2017 But .......  Hey.... those green pig tails are kind of sexy.... Quote
Phillies Posted January 24, 2017 Author Posted January 24, 2017 Â I think Cloyster is actually a decent pokemon. Quote
Skiles Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 I think Cloyster is actually a decent pokemon. Cloyster is great. It has really good stats, and Aurora Beam is a solid attack with stab damage. Quote
Danger_Jules Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 That cause you people are lazy and just train all the weak pokemon you found roaming around pallet town (pidgey, ratata, caterpie, etc.)  To be fair, however, Beedrill and Raticate are actually pretty good early game Pokemon.  I mean, where else are you going to find anything that can take Misty's Staryu and Starmie that can learn Hyper Fang and Twinneedle?
