Flygon @ focus sash
Natre: Adamant
Ev's 252 attack 252 speed 4 hp

Outrage
Earthquake
Tailwind
Dragon dance

Is there a reason Flygon doesn't see more use? You get one of the best support moves in the game along with the best boosting move. This set has been doing fantastic on battle spot.

Alongside Mega and when Lilligant gets actual coverage.

So never.

If the stats weren't that hindering it would see more use
Because it doesn't, that means the stats are pretty hindering

This is a replay of this set being used against mostly OU mons. Flygon was the mvp.

The powercreep of Gen 4 and beyond immediately made it underpowered. While it does have a lot of utility and niches it can fill 100/80 offenses isn't much anymore and 100 speed is now a slow and crowded tier.

If Flygon's stats were shuffled around to be something like 80/105/75/75/75/110 it would probably be OU or at least close to it.

In the current meta it has average at best stats and does not excel at any one thing; 100 speed boosted by Quiver/Dragon Dance still gets beaten by any Scarf'd threats or it gets OHKO before it can boost stats.

Those stats look like the one of a gen 1 mon, balanced in a way nothing stands out and everything ends up mediocre.

>>32528955
It wasn't usable even in gen 3, where sand teams and T-Tar made everyone their little bitch.

Dragon Dance is not the best boosting move in the game.

What? You get to chose to either set up support for your team, or make a potential sweep. Dragon and ground is all the coverage you need.

What exactly are you setting up? We can go over technicalities all day, but you wouldn't be setting up unless you knew I would switch, which by your post assumes I wouldn't.

Tailwind is fucking garbage in singles on top of being 90% redundant with Dragon Dance, and running only Ground+Dragon nowadays leaves you completely walled by the likes of Togekiss and Tapu Bulu and tanked by a whole lot of other Pokemon.

It's a Verlis-tier set made by someone who doesn't have a lot of competitive experience, that much is obvious to me.

You are only resisted by 12 pokemon in the entire game with ground/dragon coverage. And again it's up to you witch move you want to use. Do you want to support your mons or sweep? You get both options.

Watch the replay if you're too stupid to understand.
