>>44539383Garchomp always underwhelms me in competitive singles, not sure why cuz I'm at least a decent player (have reached top500 multiple times with alts in different gens, including 5 and 7 where chomp is "pretty good") and the pokemon is clearly pretty nasty on paper and people do well with it.
>He has good bulk and typing on paper but I feel like he gets worn down so fast whenever he's coming in on anything besides an electric move , non damaging move, or double switch. Like even if I'm just switching in a helmet chomp on uturn for that sweet chip or a defensive pokemon I caught on a double just throws out a neutrally damaging move on my SD or Rocks im thinking "fuck hows this thing taking so much damage it has 100 hp and defenses". And if he gets hit by an ice move when hes a bit chipped sometimes it just kills right through yache and I wanna punch my computer screen.>I feel underwhelmed by his damage most of the time. I always find myself needing some rocks chip on shit to blast them away at +2 or with rockinium but I can't threaten OHKOS on shit like that earlygame and set rocks at the same ime cuz my rocker is chomp. But garchomp has no recovery, hates status, and isnt that fast so it just on the bench most of the game unless I wanna make a play.>Even on black white with a scarf im not touching this shit outside of a dragmag, like fuck id rather just use landorus or exca and if my team is too heatran weak or some shit adjust accordinglyI can see he can be good if ur playing good but he seems to take a lot more skill/prediction to pilot than other standout options
