The Zubat line is my favorite.
Golbat is always an early standout for my in-game teams. Crobat is even more of a bro. It really becomes a measuring stick. Either other pokemon can hold their own with Crobat or they fall behind and get boxed. Since Crobat is, in theory, available so early on via Friendship Evolution, it can set the bar pretty high for bro status. Plus, it actually got a buff from the addition of Fairy Types despite not bein part Fairy itself. On top of all that, too, the whole line has a variety of viable sets. Nasty Plot SpA focused Crobat is my favorite but there are decent physical sets for it too and a potentially brutal stall set which Golbat can utilize even more with Eviolite.
There seems to be a hesitation for some people when it comes to using the Zubat line because of their abundance and annoying attributes in most games but they are really fine additions to any team.
Use one if you haven't. Will not disappoint.
