>>45064981>Memed enough to be an issueAfter disallowing Sand Rush Excadrill on sand teams, Swift Swim anything on rain teams, Chlorophyll anything on sun teams, the banning of Genesect, Manaphy, Thundurus, Landorus, and Tornadus-T. Hell, Arena Trap Dugtrio was used to delete DragMag for Sand teams, but it got retroactively banned because of Gen 7.
>Hard countered Magneton/Magnezone, sure. But it melted to EarthquakeIn which case it would switch. Never used Heatran before? That thing is impossible to kill unless you trap it.
>Garchomp makes it quite spammable.Sure, but Landorus-T exists in Gen 6 and 7 and Heatran is still S-tier
>But that's probably moot given Lando exists.lmao no it got banned
>In the sense that only one type in the entire game resisted it, yes. And that one type was the strongest type in the game at that point.
>That was real fucking stupid as a design choiceSure was, Ice should've resisted it or been immune. Ice needed the buff, and it wouldn't have killed Dragons' viability.
> and in gen I it had NOTHING that resisted it.In Gen 1 it had 1 move - Dragon Rage - which did 40 damage always, and Dragonite was a shitmon only used from Wrap bullshit.
>The only reason that wasn't even a problem at the time was because Dragon Rage was the only Dragon-type move It wasn't a problem in Gen 2 or 3 either. Kingdra and Dragonite are shitmons in Gen 2, and Salamence is the only really strong one in Gen 3 (and it still wasn't #1 in the tier, TTar was)
>It's because Kyurem-B's physical movepool is shit you stupid cuntBut it got the unstoppable Outrage, Electric-type EQ, a still respectable 120 base SpA stat that let it hit physically and specially hard, Stone Edge, Zen Headbutt, and Shadow Claw.
Seriously, Outrage was SOOOOOOOO busted, obviously, so it should've been immediately banned to Ubers since it couldn't be stopped. /s
>The moment Kyurem-B got even a half decent physical ice move, it got sent to ubersIt got sent to Ubers because of DDance
