Why? 90% of the time having Sdef be the highest stat means GF just went "fuck it"

It's sometimes hilarious because because you can infestation stall some special attackers with that and roost. But it's super gimmicky at best.

It hurts me because it has my favorite design along with... Scizor and... ARIADOS!?
WHAT THE HELL
I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS A JOHTOCHAD
And they're all bad I fucking hate it. Gen 2 just has this really stylish, sharp but roundy aesthetic to it. Ledian, Scizor, Ariados, Typhlosion, Feraligatr... All of them mostly not what you'd expect from their cool looks.

Scizor being so fucking slow is a travesty, it should have been Gen 2 Garchomp

That's literally his only weakness. If you played it right, it'd definitely still be a good mon.

Do you also think that Swampert was always bad because of its 4x weakness to grass?

Oh yeah, you're right. If anything, that makes it even worse, though, since physical attack isn't even relevant for it.

Breloom's bretty gud, spore and technician mach punch off his big attack is always useful (though he's not in SwSh)
Ampharos less so (don't think it's in SwSh either)

mach punch / leech seed / drain punch / and some strongish grass move.
Heal bell + technician.

Do i suck? i tried to compensate his frailness with some healing shenaniganz. I think i should give him spore tho

Spore/Bullet Seed/Mach Punch/whatever offensive move you wanna put here is pretty good with Technician and a Life Orb. Leech Seed is better for Poison Heal Breloom, I'd say.

I remember in... i think it was Gen VI VGC in one big event someone actually used... Spinarak with pretty decent success.
It makes perfect sense, imho - it's not usually first target for opponent, has decent speed control between String Shot and Sticky Web, consistent 100 damage from Night Shade.
