where's bravest bird?

despite the nerf, bravest bird will still always be more relevant than any other bird

Swellow.

>>31143522
Gen 6 Talonflame was the best one, it helped that it wasn't part Normal (only Fletchling being Normal/Flying).

Due to Talonflame nerf, Staraptor regained the status as the best one (it is BL but it still counts as OU)

Toucannon would be pretty good if it wasn't for the fact it's slow like the most of Alola. I would accept 80/90 Speed but 60 (?) is too low.

I know enough that Staraptor is reliable,
But my personal favorite is maybe Tucannon,the one that I actually know how to use is [Swellow/spoiler], and the one that always has in-game utility regardless is Talonflame
>>
>>31143522
they didn't have to completely annihilate bravest bird like they did desu

why not make it one of those shitty 50% abilities that they love pushing on ordinarily good mons?

i'm pretty mad since it was one of my legit shinies that was actually good, designwise and battle-wise. I have others, like discount Garchomp and Puke Green Scizor, who I don't use for obvious reasons, and some shiny Megas with unreleased Mega Stones.

If nothing else, I still have my Shiny Azumarill. ;~;

Why is Swellow so underappreciated? With Guts, it effectively has 125 base Attack and Speed. Add in a 140 BP Normal-type STAB and Brave Bird, it is pretty solid.

This is the same gen that nerfed Prankster by making Dark types immune to it's priority status moves and made Dark Void unusable by Smeargle AND half as accurate. Calm down GameFreak, for fuck's sake.

That said
>Design
I personally like Swellow, and it also does the best job of visually conveying its stats. Though Pigeot might be better.
>mechanically strong
Staraptor, no contest
>most unique
Noctowl had potential, should've gotten more psychic and ghost moves. Hell, make it Ghost/Flying
>Most balanced in gameplay (and thus best mechanically designed)
Almost everything after Pigeot is either underpowered or overpowered. Toucannon is so-far the only exception because its utter lack of speed and great offense/moves actually even out. I still think Pigeot is the best balance of how early you get it and how actually useful it is.

So basically Unfezant is shit, moral of the story.
Also none of these are worth using in their respective games IMO, but I also don't like Flying types in general so take that as you will
>>
>>31143718
Gen 1 lineup is the best
Gen 2 has some unique ones and Skarmory is rad
Gen 3 is meh
Gen 4's suck aside from 'raptor
Braviary is rad and the Vulture is alright
Fuck gen 6, just in general
Toucannon is cool and Oricorio is gimmicky, but also rad

Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!
