>>31082612Fire was Special. Fire badger was made prior to the split. After that, and a few generations later, Typhlosion can't take advantage of its vast Physical movepool because of shit Atk. Instead of STAB Flare Blitz, Wild Charge for Water coverage, EQ for Rock, and Crush Claw/Shadow Claw/Whatever, you'll go Choice Eruption, Fire Blast, Focus Blast for Rock, or Hidden Power, which is a bitch and a pain in the ass to breed.
Charizard is the same way but it got 2 Megas: A mixed attacker and a special sun wallbreaker, so it doesn't suck now. Burn Up doesn't do justice to fire badger.
