Physical or Special, /vp/? I'm more of a Special guy, and

Either, but the Physical/Special split was a mistake.

Choose one.

Special, obviously

>>33026487
pretty much this. Plus special moves have a higher overall accuracy and less drawbacks like recoil.

>>33026429
Special is better, but outside of Ubers there are way better physical attack options.

>>33026429
Special, but I usually try to run both. It's a bitch to run into something like specially bulky Primarina, Chansey, Florges and not have good physical attackers.

>>33026429
I find myself liking Physically strong Pokemon more often than special ones, but I can appreciate both and really like when a Pokemon can be made strong with either like Lucario.

Entirely this.

While I have more fun using a special attacker, I generally keep my teams half and half. 4 - 2 at worst.

If your team doesn't work together it's rather useless.
