>>54049136>>54049118>>54049114>>54049076>>54049252All right all right, there's some good arguments to be made. I'm not budging on dropping his Ghost or Dark type, I am absolutely sure Dale would keep those on his personal team to shut down government mindprobes... but he'd probably also want his own psychic to counter conspiracy theories so:
>Dropped Wheezing for BeheeyemI kinda struggled with this, but ultimately Dale could just teach his pokemon poison/has/smog moves rather than have a dedicated poison puffer.
>Dropped Durant for GenesectReally any Bug-Type would work, but Dale would want his rarest one on hand. Plus it's got a x4 type weakness to fire, meaning it would be safest with Heatmor there too.
>Fearow for BraviaryUltimately not a big switch, I don't like reusing the same mon but I can see the argument that Rufflets would be pretty popular among Americans.
>Trainer name change>>54049136 is absolutely right and I can't believe I forgot that Dale constantly used an alias on the show. To anyone else who forgot "Rusty Shackleford" was his go to fake name.
