Had Decidueye outsped Heatran's base 77, its tier would have potential.
Had Decidueye been given leech seed, it could run subseeb on a trapped foe.
Had Long Reach deal boosted damage against flying 'mons like FE archers do, it would have a well defined niche.
Decidueye was a thorn to TPCi's plans by being decently popular since leak season and this was done to put a cap on that.
