>>37277495>because dragon dance is a dragon type move, it's suddenly a great type? Most Dragon Dance users are Dragon types, so yes, the type certainly benefits having it as a Dragon type move. Certain types are limited by the strongest moves available to them. Ghost, Dark, Physical Water are notable as they don't have a move above 85 BP. That means without a boosting move, there is a lower, hard cap to the offensive strength of these types.
>The only thing saving dragon from being a completely shit choice is the fact most of them have a high BST. But that isn't enough anymore with the power creep.Flygon was a top Pokemon in DP OU even when Garchomp was around, simply on the basis of having access to obscenely powerful moves that played up its mediocre stats.
Having access to two drawback-free, 120 BP+ moves allows Dragons to run mixed, if they so need to. The only other type with this flexibility is Fire, but Fire had numerous common resists, unlike Dragon.
