So I started a new game on SoulSilver the other day, and ran into this shiny Delibird just now. What should I do, trade it for a better shiny or teach it some TMs and make it useful?

I realize that, but it's not like I'm going to use it competitively.

On a Platinum run I used one in a team that had a Shedinja and it still managed to be the most useless in the team. Since it's shiny you might as well use it though.

I never liked Delibird since they always ran away in Silver, but I've got a good feeling about this one.

How should Deliberd have been built to make him useful? Is it really just his stats or he a mess all over?

The Greatest crime of HGSS is not having the "deliveryman" be a Deliberd instead

I think you should trade it for a better shiny. There's bound to be someone out there doing a shiny hunt that'll look for an easy way to gain a shiny useless bird to better complete their collection.

Just make it your Ribbon Bro. Collect all the Ribbons you can for it and make it a Contest Star. It'll never be viable but Ribbons at least give it some form of purpose.

Yeah, it's a real mess. Delibird have the same BST as Luvdisc (which is really low), and they learn a really limited amount of moves.

Might ask around, see if anyone's interested if I really feel like getting rid of it later. I kinda like it despite its uselessness for some reason, I'll have to give this some thought.

At least it gets access to things like Spike and Destiny Bond, when I get one on Showdown in Random Teams it always manages to take an opponent with him and sometimes to set spikes as well.
They need to give him a evolution or Mega with a crazy good unique ability though.

Yeah, I know. I'm going to teach it some moves and send it up to my Pokemon Bank for safekeeping eventually. Might use it again in Sun and Moon, see how it looks with the improved graphics.

Don't trade it, if you ever see a shiny in a playthrough you have to use it as a bro.

I think you should keep it op. Shinies that you caught yourself are more special than any other shiny you can trade for. Especially in Soul Silver bc that's 1/8192 chance!

Thief and Ice Beam, I guess. I'm about to challenge Clair and I'm keeping him in my party with an Exp Share, which I intend to give to the ExtremeSpeed Dratini later.

Just have some fun and run around using Present. I mean, it's Delibird, might as well use it for it's intended use. It was never intended for a "viable" pokémon, and that's completely fine, just that a lot of fans seem to believe that everything should be.

I used one against Clair one time, was pretty funny when it did the KO against Kingdra with Present.

I'll have to teach it Brick Break when I send it up to Gen 6 so it has a fighting chance against Rock.

As if anyone else would use it competitively. Is that the only reason you play the games?

Why should they do that? Delibird doesn't need any adjustments, it's fine as it is.

Once in SoulSilver I found a shiny Ursaring while training on Route 28, because I couldn't use it competitively I use it instead as HM Slave, and before use any HM (Cut, Rock Smash, etc.) I always put it on first slot to make it use the moves outside of its Poke Ball.

I'll never forget it (long time ago I wanted to restart SoulSilver so I send all the starters, legendaries and a shiny Bellossom to White 2 and forgot that I had a shiny Ursaring, I saw it only knew HMs and didn't care about it and deleted the save)
