It's an owl.

is this meme still going on? after what, 4 years?
>>28591810
But it is an owl
>>28591371
I think Staraptor is the best of the birds design wise and overall the best in-game non-competetive.
>>28591371
It's not terrible with tinted lens

>Looks like a grandfather clock
>Has an escapement for it's feather brow
>Tilts its head and mimics the function of an escapement

Are you denying that it's an owl? Its name is NoctOWL.

>only good outside of competitive play
Anon, this bird was the first smogon bird. Get your facts right.
>good design with an idea that's never been touched in the series before
>worst typing in the game
>unique weather setter, but it's the worst weather in the game
>not even good in-game because it's not available until Victory Road where you'll already have a fully built team.

Staraptor is no slouch. The only reason it's outclassed by Talonflame is because the latter gets access to Gale Wings. Staraptor hits harder and giving it Gale Wings would most likely make it Top Tier in OU, maybe even make him go into Ubers.

Can somebody explain this meme please?
>>28592307
Owls are not birds
>>28592307
What meme?
>>28591371
I don't have any Ledian pick but count it in too.
>>28591930
Snover can be catch in Routes 216 and 217, Acuity Lakefront, Mt. Coronet's peak
>>28591989
In Balanced Hackmons people use Gale Wings Staraptor and Braviary all the time, it's a nightmare.
>>28591930
Its mega is B-rank in doubles, not bad at all.
Might as well if stuff with good movepools like Corsola can come
>>28592582
Literally the worst pokemon
>>28592557
>B-rank
>>28592624
Literally the worst taste
>>28591371
It's not all bad for Noctowl, OP. It's one of the few Pokemon that can get Defog without the need of a TM and it can run a decent specially defensive set.
>>28592624
Literally the worst poster.
>>28592557
It upsets me that its mega has Snow Warning when regular Abomasnow also has Snow Warning.
>>28591371
even with the alolan forms the new type changes are gonna put them securely in nu
