Where did it all go so wrong?
gentoo
gen 4
Dragonite still had never looked better than his Gen 1 sprite
Gen 3 started it, Gen 5 made it worse.
>Mold Breaker
>not Darkilate
YOU HAVE ONE JOB GAMEFREAK
I still think that Gyarados should've been the second pseudo of gen 1, what Game Freak did to him in gen 2 was just cruel
>Deoxsys is literally DNA
>Does not Mega Evolve.
I know it has forms but this always bugged me.
>Giant water serpent with a huge special movepool
>Game Freak ćucks him with 60 sp.atk

When has Gatadoyse ever flown? The only flying move it can learn is bounce
>>24580820
Gen 2 was the sole gen where Gyarados wasn't a top-tier threat in competitive play.
>>24581644
Gyarados is decent in gen 1 but clearly not a "top-tier threat".
>>24580820
>Flying type.
>no useful flying type move
>>24581631
>it doesn't learn Flying attacks so it doesn't fly
It's literally a flying serpent. It is always depicted this way.

Physcial Special split really hurt poor Gyra.
Really, if it got some boosts to its move pool to help work with its stats, it'd be a major threat.
The second big problem is that it doesn't get any egg moves. If it got Fire Fang, Thunder Fang, Acrobatics, and maybe something like Gunk Shot or Poison Jab, it'd be a beast.
Wild Charge, Head Smash, Ice Shard, U-Turn, Super Power, and Play Rough would be really nice, but even more unlikely.

Serpentine Pokemon in general usually have gimped movepools at some point, it's weird
I think only Milotic and arguably Rayquaza avoided this
>>24580857
>darkilate
The most retarded ability name ever. Why not Waterate. Fuck, even Dragilate .
>>24580891
Specs Gyara has same SpA as Mewtwo. Anon pls.
>>24583999
(type)ilate is just a general name describing the -ate ability, not the actual name of the ability.
Malevolate could probably work for Dark.
>>24583999
What about Itislate
because then it would be Dark out
>>24580878
Considering they imply that the laser that created Deoxys was the same one that created mega evolutions, I think its forms are supposed to be megas in a sense?
Not saying that it is a good idea or makes much sense, just saying what I think Gamefreak's logic might have been
>>24580820
Nothing. It's a pretty good mon with a pretty good mega.
