>>18935019I can see the Lucario part, since it's pretty slow and awful defenses, but Gyarados is a great late game clean up sweeper after a dragon dance, and both it's abilities are pretty useful.
>>18935010I don't really like Dragonite, but Mamoswine is a great pokemon. It just shares a pair of weaknesses with Tyranitar, and another weakness with Florges, so i haven't really considered one.
I do indeed lack a good lead, I often am not sure what to send out first. I've been working around this by sending out a pokemon that can usually handle most of the enemie's team, but that sometimes results in turn 1 death.
I haven't considered a dedicated lead in a long time though, but I just used Scarf Machamp in Gen4 because it didn't require a lot of thinking.
