>>45350966>and then can have Slash or something to hit tentacruel and other Pokémon with high special defenseThat's actually a display of my issue with it.
Resorting to a 70bp move that's super effective against nothing certainly doesnt make the pokemon look favorable to me.
I don't need min maxed perfect pokemon to play through a game, but an offensive pokemon should get at least one stab type (pre split) that uses it's higher attack stat. That doesn't even need to hold true for all pokemon, but dark types were insanely fucked regarding that and they aren't the only ones feeling subpar due to their taking not matching their stats.
