How do we fix him? He gets countered by so many types, bug, fighting, fairy, dragon, ice. Hydreigon can't even compete in this VGC meta. How do we save him?

More speed, everything else is fine.

Play gen 5

>shiny hydreigon

What did he mean by this?

Mecha-Hydreigon

He has 6 resistances and 2 immunities plus massive coverage and moderate bulk. Tyranitar has a lot of success despite more weaknesses to even more common types. He just needs a buffing move like Nasty Plot or, better yet, a special version of Dragon Dance.

My dick could smash a diamond

I dunno I have pretty good experience with mine. Flash Cannon deals with Ice and Fairy types, Dragons are trumped by Dragons. U-Turn the fuck out when Bug or Fighting show up, I guess. I think it learns U-Turn.
>>
Hydreigon is perfectly fine. Don't fall for the "BL/UU means it's shit" meme.

But how does hydreigon deal with faster mons that are very common, such as tapu koko and garchomp. Hydreigons speed really hinders it
>>
>>31553672
You switch out and let its teammates handle those mons.

Hydreigon is actually fairly good in the current OU meta. Not amazing, but better than people might think with the whole 'omg weak to fairys' thing.

Dark Pulse is extremely spammable, and can clean lategame. Specs, Scarf, Life Orb Roost + 3 attacks, it's got options.

When are they going to fucking fix this ridiculously poorly thought-out mechanic

>>31553672
Switch to a counter? That's why you have 5 other Pokemon.

Also, Hydreigon is fine. He still has a unique offensive typing and a good set of resistances+bulk that makes him an easy fit in many doubles teams. He's only not used in VGC now because Deino isnt in the Alola dex. He was everywhere in 2014 season and saw a fair bit of use in 2015 season.

>Levitate is its only ability

>>31553672
Scarf Hydra is a common set. It can even switch into Chomp's and Koko's Ground/Electric STAB.
>>
>>31553391
That can be the mega.
It can have a copy of parental bonds that relates to it attacking with each head.
>>
>>31553362
More speed and Quiver Dance. Hydreigon packs so much power that all it needs is some extra speed to deal with it's issues.
>>
Scarf hydreigon always destroys everything for me on battle spot. Many people think it'll get outspeed and dont change but its never the case and i OHKO their chomps with draco, ninetales with flash cannon and so on
>>
>>31553362
Mega Evolution with Steelworker. +20 to all Stats.

It can take some of it's original cybernetic concepts, while still maintaining it's natural combo.

Have I somewhat helped this menancing dragon bro?
