>Rapidash outspeeds every water Pokemon you can send outSo? Gyarados obliterates 4/5 of his team. As does Empoleon, a mon that 1/3 of players will have recieved. Gastrodon is wiping the whole team. Do I need to go on?
>Except maybe Floatzel with favorable natureWith any non -Speed nature Floatzel outspeeds Rapidash up to 4 levels under it. This is assuming your Floatzel has 0EV in speed.
Level 54 Floatzel goes first, OHKO's Rapidash with Aqua Tail.
>Sunny Day nullifies Water weaknessIt halves the BP of Water moves, that's it. It also has to survive long enough to USE it and that party has TWO mons that benefit from Sunny Day offensively, both of which die almost instantly to a Water type anyway.
>They gain resistanceNo.
>Boost their fire type movesA Sun-Boosted Fire Punch from Lopunny isn't even 100% chance to 2HKO a TURTWIG that's the same level as it. Again assuming Rapidash got it up and it's still up, because Steelix sure isn't getting it up or hurting anything.
>61LV Infernape with sun support is actually scary as fuckIf it has sun. Which is unlikely as fuck.
>It can oneshot 50LV Empoleon with Flare BlitzImpressive. It can oneshot a mon 11 levels lower than it, that doesn't resist it, under a weather it can't set itself. And then we remember it takes recoil.
>Level 61 Empoleon takes a Sunny Day Flare Blitz>Recoil takes nearly a third of Infernape's health>Hydro Pump OHKOs even under Sun.Tasty matchup.
>They had to think of somethingThat's exactly our point. What they thought of is a dozen times removed from a good idea
>Lets have a Fire type leader in a gen with two Fire types>Lets still claim he trains Fire types rather than say he specializes in Fire moves>Lets give him a team that can barely use fire moves>Lets make sure that one of those mons can't kill shit and another shares their most common weakness!>Lets make sure none resist that weakness!
