>>33392664Basically this, but I remember having one in Ruby during my first playthrough. I remember getting really frustrated with it because it took forever to evolve. My Lairon had just hit level 41 and hadn't evolved, so I said to myself "If you don't evolve next level I'm releasing you". He evolved next level, and instantly became one of my favourite pokémon designs.
He didn't become a top tier bro until pic related and I started messing around with rock polish/magnet rise/head smash aggron when I dabbled in competitive play.
