Post Pokemon that you wish were better.
Mine's Gastrodon. It's just outclassed by Swampert, which makes me sad.

It SORT OF was outclassed by it in Gen IV, but then Storm Drain came. Gastrodon is far better than Swampert and fits into way more teams. If it wered for Unaware Quagsire having some pretty critical uses itself, Gastrodon would be the uncontested king of Water/Ground pokemon.

Torkoal is at least bulky and viable in game, as well as having the SR/Rapid Spin niche for lower tier online battles.

Slugma isn't even fully evolved. If we're talking Magcargo, at least that normally survives enough neutral hits to do some damage.

I love both but in most situations a Gastrodon is better. I run a Swampert rather than a Gastrodon mainly for wide guard.

Mightyena because it has really good appearance and looks like sick, bloodlust and beauty in a same time. But its stats and move set is shit. After gen 4 it got some Fang moves but, not enough. Feel sad for it.

Supereffective damage on Torkoal is just as common ingame as in linked battle. Slugma/Magcargo don't ever see "neutral hits", those are a distant fantasy for a Fire/Rock pokemon.

If you REALLY liked Gastrodon you wouldn't let this (false) presumption stop you! You are unworthy of the true reality, go play with your Swampert!

Gastrodon is a hidden gem. Can't believe it's NU.

Storm drain completely fucks with bulky waters. Go max physical def to annoy stuff like azumarills. Completely walls the ever present Rotom-W. I like to run a rocky helmet gastro and just spam recover on some pokes.

Chatot, it's kind of outclassed by every other flying pokemon, but I still love the little fucker.

It already has good attacking stats and an amazsing movepool. If only it had better defenses and/or speed.

The only thing that this little fuck has going for him is the signature move chatter which is shit damage wise.

It's so cute and fluffy but its garbage ability makes regular way better. I wish it kept Regenerator or even had Triage, which with heal pulse would keep the whole "the doubles mega" thing GF wanted for it

Chatter is a damaging 100% Confusion move.
Chatot also is a Nasty Plotting Boomburst user and the fastest one who has STAB with it and a usable Speciall Attack.
There's a lot going against Chatot but it does have unique qualities.

Listen, I love chatot, I recognize it has these things but in any competitive environment there are alot of pokemon that can do the same thing but better.

Like nobody? Boomburst is weaksauce on everyone who's faster that uses it. I appreciate that it's not a hotly desired niche but nobody else is good at it either.

no a lot of pokemon can't use chatter, and the only other stab boomburst users are exploud and swellow. swellow has no special attack, and exploud is slow as fuck.

Chatot isn't good competitively, but use a real arguement.
