>5/6. 5 turned it into the best FEAR style gimmick ever. 6 took that away by removing permaweather but at least it became workable in doubles via Wide Guard + Thunder Wave combo despite being a shitmon and all
And now Thunder Wave is nerfed, Tapu Fini exists, and a ripoff of an Alola Form is running around with tournament success.

Charizard.
Generation VI. It's still going strong in Generation VII, but there's a lot more competition now, and one of its Mega form is not as useful now.

I feel you my man. If only GF gave it some moves/better ability to keep it relevant.

You know that can apply to literally every Pokemon. A good ability is all most Pokemon need to be broken, see Talonflame for example.

The first gen it got reckless, and before the powercreep started to outclass it a bit more. Gen 6 gets honourable mention for the dualbird core but at the same time Talonflame made it a lot harder to justify using staraptor.

Quoted By:

>Starmie
>Gen 1
One of the fastest pokemon in the game, Psychic typing was king, it had Recover, Blizzard and unlike Alakazam it had the Defense stat to win against physical attackers.

Honourable mention to Gen 5:
Rain was everywhere, and Starmie could fuck up all the many Fighting-types with its Psychic typing.
It was also given Psyshock and Scald and a very decent Hidden Ability.

Relevant, nigga, relevant. It fell from OU to RU in gen 6, so something to bring it, at least, to UU. And yes, you can apply that to every single mon, but I am just asking for this one, as it's my favorite.

Outclassing Salamence after it just being a better Dragonite is a dream come true. And for a good chunk of XY

Gen 1 Starmie was the absolute best water type in the game and arguably the best psychic excluding Mewtwo.

Fire pokemon wasn't viable because Starmie existed lol

M-Scizor's still as good as it was all gen 6 long. For regular Scizor, I guess it's platinum gen 4 ? It probably also really liked rain in gen 5. I don't know.

Probably gen 6 realistically. Its not good but it has the niche of being tbe most reliable user of sticky web giving it some OU and UU use.

Slowbro and Gen VI. Nice Mega and it was top tier OU.

Too bad Tapu Koko and Toxapex made it drop.

Same as >>31509808, though Gen IV is a close second with the Sand buff, Physical/Special Split, and Stealth Rock for utility.
>>31511516
Fire Pokemon weren't viable because using their STABs was the only way for a Frozen opponent to defrost, and you'd never want to do that.

I think it was best in gen 1 because 125 Special and OP Blizzard with chance of perma freeze. Also there were less mons that would fuck it over in total.

Not as good as in gen 1, but I really liked using it in gen 3 as a Pressure staller.

Too bad that with the powercreep and Espionage Pebbles it can't do that anymore.
