>>51693030>Offensively, Ground is just far more useful than Dragon is.To a shitter, maybe so. The main issue is that ground charge moves only get up to around 55 DPE*DPS, and for a long while the only one that got close to it was a 1-bar charge move. Just like in the main games, the main perk to dragons is their stats, in this game that applies to their BST and moves.
The current ceiling for ground-types in raids (lvl. 50 in favorable weather) is just barely being able to solo Mega Manectric, one of the most frail megas in the game. Meanwhile, similar conditions for Shadow Salamence and Dragonite allow for solos against Mega Ampharos, Mega Charizard X and Mega Sceptile (when it comes out), aka generally much bulkier Pokémon.
