>>23322285>>23322285>It's weak against three of the best defensive typesrock and electric are not some of the best defensive typings. and for you to even consider electric one of the best (kek) defensive typings means you are giving flying some sort of recognition as being good offensively, because electric's only other resistances are electric and steel, and electric can't possibly be one of the best defensive typings (your words) due to those two.
>it is SE against fighting(useful) and two of the worst types in the game(not nearly as useful.)pre-gen vi, dragon was only useful against other dragons, it didn't stop it being one of the best offensive typings. super effective damage isn't the be all end all you know. the fact it also has no immunities is incredibly helpful for it
>The only reason flying is strong now is because of all of the utterly ridiculous abilities it's gotten to boost it this gen.those abilities only emphasized how good it is, it doesn't make flying offense any worse. you could give a gale wings clone to poison moves, it wouldn't suddenly make poison a good offensive typing.
i know anons on here bash on it, but look at mega pidgeot. it's gone from nu to top of uu based on ONE move - hurricane.
