>>52656894I think all new Pokemon should have a reason to exist, and most of the time they manage it by giving them a signature move, ability or unique typing.
Wugtrio and Spidops are borderline useless but have signature moves. Lokix has a signature type and a killer movepool. Bombirdier has a great movepool despite its Gen I stat distribution.
But Squawkabilly?
>Staraptor has Intimidate>Braviary and Toucannon have Sheer Force>Swellow has Guts>all of them have better stats and movepools than SquakabillyWith better stats and a physical normal move that never misses it could have had a niche. But at this point in the franchise there's no point introducing Normal/Flying types unless they're high a BST support Pokemon/tank ( Mandibuzz stats) or special attacker. All the physical niches are filled.
