Magnezone is definitely one of my favorites, too.

Name another Pokemon with 11 resistances and 1 immunity.

I prefer Poliwrath, but like Poliwhirl as well.

>>30371117
it's a solid pokemon
attack stats are balanced so you can have it as a mixed attacker
mega boosts those stats
I normally run a specially offensive mega lucario

I agree with you, he gets shit on for no reason

I already have one but I'm going to breed another with Wish and proper IVs so I'd definitely appreciate a shiny Eevee. I don't have much to offer though unless you want a trash Bagon, Goomy, or breeding reject Scyther.

Mine is a mixed attacker and usually only has a hard time when hit with something massive and super effective.

How much of a breed reject is the scyther?

Let's see, the best one I have for you is a level 1 Adamant male with technician and perfect IVs in everything except HP and Sp. Atk, and the HP stat is "pretty good."

I'm pretty sure the eevee I have is shit so honestly that scyther is bretty gud

Honestly the day I learned about IVs and EVs was pretty sad. I always liked to believe that with enough love and training, any Pokemon could be a champ. But then again that was when I was a kid. Anyway, I'm definitely down to trade. Go ahead and add my friend code if you want: 0533-4846-7113

Combination of design and how he was practically my lucky charm in my first Sapphire run over a decade ago. That same one is waiting to be transferred from my AS cart to Moon, along with three more Swellows bred from it. I arranged for each of them to be used for in-game runs of Pearl, Y, and AS and I was slightly upset that I couldn't do the same for Moon to keep the bloodline going. I'm still going to breed one for the Battle Tree when Pokebank opens but it would've been really nice having it in my first main party.

Pic related, my Swellow from Y.

It was probably a breed developed by a now assimilated tribe of people, and used in ritualistic combat where it always end up losing. Help 'em win.

For me it's a tie between Gliscor and Skarmory.

Because pissing the opponent off with shit like Sub-Protect Poison Heal or Spikes-Whirlwind is more important than winning. You'd be surprised by how many people still fall for basic annoying stall stuff.

Also they are great-looking IMO.

Cofagigrus is my go to pokemon, though I admit there are some rivals to the throne creeping up on it. The fact that its available in the wild in so few games hurts it it a bit, meaning I only ever use it as an alternate starter hatched from an egg in runs these days (I love BW/BW2 but I have played them to death).

Trevenant and Pelipper may take the top spot one day, and Gigalith has become the new dark horse. We'll see.
