Competitively speaking, Goodra is aggressively mediocre but it's not terrible.

Aurorus is awful in almost every single aspect.

Well design wise Aurorus is definitely better.

It's one of the things that bothers me: they make cool looking mons and then make them awful. Like I love Dragalge's design, but it's not good. And it could be decent with Adapatiblity, but they intentionally didn't release it.

Grimer m8, why did you disappear again? ;___; Best buds stick together.

No you turbonerd, there are Pokemon with worse designs and shittier movepools. The former can be found anywhere and the latter requires determining whether a shitty movepool is dependent on lack of versatility or lack of useful moves in general. The former are certainly more common.

Has anyone ever tried to come up with a proper PU tier? NU's bloated enough that such a tier could actually be made. Also, I'm curious to see what sort of Pokemon would be able to prevail at the absolute bottom of the barrel below even NU.

I probably should have mentioned that stats and typing are more important than either, and these are the breaking points for MachBullet Dinosaur. It's fine aside from those key points.

Find me Ice Pokemon with Discharge.

People have to learn there are many play styles. No everyone care for winning. Some people just want to have monotype team and then maybe Amaura will be perfect pokemon to fit there.
It's a great bite pokemon. Amaura + Goodra with Goop(or whatever the slowing ability is)can really help.

Not entirely sure that'd work, though items that technically change a pokemon's weaknesses are already in the game.

What would that do to craniados/rampardos though? They're pure rock the pair of them

Perhaps there could be a variety of them, similar to the choice set of hold items. Each of them giving a different stat boost. Goodness knows the fossils could use some love. Heck, you could even just have each one tailored to each pokemon. Bring some NPC a spare fossil of the pokemon you want, and they can turn it into a hold item that boosts that pokemon specifically.

I'm thinking Whimsicott covers the worst of its weaknesses except for Steel, and it's pretty damn Sanic.
