Flygon, probably the most tragic case of a Pokemon being left behind

It's only PU because Drizzle is banned in UU. It would be the king of UU otherwise, you can practically consider it BL.

Scrafty was never good, and Hydreigon is still as good as it ever was

Heracross, Snorlax, both were gods
Though pre-physical/special split is probably what made them so good in comparison to everything else.

It used to be an absolute terror in Ubers, splashable on almost any team, able to force at least a trade with anything, and THE go-to choice for fighting off Kyogre.

Now it is a liability to even have one on your team.

This. Pathetic really, even Mewtwo isn't top tier in Ubers anymore.

At least Palkia and Dialga have a shot at getting Megas/Primals that are actually good.

Mewtwo Y at least has a niche as a hard Darkrai Counter, and as a victory condition.

Palkia is only Xerneas setup fodder.
