>>31716080Honestly there is a lot of ways they could go with Mismagius but it's clear Gamefreak never gave a fuck about it.
Fundamentally it's original evolution stat distribution was terrifically bad, it only gets +60 on evolution and no dual typing. You know how bad that is? It makes it only on par with Magmar, a NFE and weaker than the Unova elemental monkeys.
Then instead of doing something with the boost they go and split them evenly +20 to each stat so it's best stats are only a little above average instead of minmaxing to Gengar status.
Also not giving any boost to it's defense and HP is a bad bad idea because then Eviolite came along and just straight up makes Misdreavus better defensively.
In short nothing can save Mismagius short of a minimum of another +20/30 to it's bases or a dual typing that doesn't completely suck ass.
>>31718913>ghost/psychicYou'd actually make Mismagius into one of the worst Pokemon in the game. Ghost/Psychic is pretty much one of the statistically worst dual typings in the game.
