What is a quasi-legendary?
>part of a 2-stage evolutionary line
>learns one move per 10 levels like most legendaries and learns one move at level 100
>the final evo is a stationary Pokemon like some legendaries
>the final evo has 550 BST
>the pre-evo evolves into the final evo VERY late
>Example: Volcarona

You want a Bug/Water-type with 550 BST, you just don't know it yet.

It looks like a child's rough draft of an "cool" digimon, and doesn't use any principles of aesthetic design.

The scythe fins and uni-claw hand don't make much sense, they could have at least tried to connect the fins along the rest of the arm to the body to make them look semi-purposeful.

The "turbines" on the head just have lines scribbled on them. They could have at least added a splash of color to highlight the sections if they want to make them stand out.

Finally, random spikes on the arms and thighs is just 4edgy6me. Why are they there? Was it not spiky enough, and the designer added them in to meet his spike quota? I guess the fins, teeth, tail, claws, and talons just weren't enough.

You only dislike Garchomp because of its typing and its Pokedex entries?

And besides, what type would it be? It's a landshark, Water-type doesn't make sense flavor-wise. Ground is obligatory and the closest thing to shark (except Water) is Dragon.

I'll give you that the Pokedex entries tend to be retarded on several Pokemon.

They serve no purpose. Dragons exist just to fight other dragons and rape every type not named Steel. They are probably the most uneeded and overdone type.

Most of them don't even look good.

wizard> dragon
Magic typing-
poison hits it for x2 (poisoned potion)
normal is immune, magic on mere mortals is forbidden

Only one type is SE against it. Only two types resists it, and one of them is a liability to have as a typing. One type is immune, but normal is immune to that as well.

Normal is only lacking in the Smogon OU singles.

You know, the most unbalanced competitive meta?
