>Altaria is the first non-superpowered Dragon and effectively fills a completely different niche than the others being a midgame shitmon that's at least super accessible>Flygon is one of the best in-game mons but requires a lot of effort compared to Altaria to rock, the most bang for your buck though>Salamence doesn't exist. You can't get the fucker until the 8th Gym and even then you would immediately get access to>Fug, who is Fug>Meanwhile Latios/Latias are post game so they don't really get ranked on an in-game usefulness chart>Also Kingdra's in this gameMeanwhile you can get every Hoenn Ghost type without pulling your hair out unless you're playing Ruby. With no Gengar or even Misdreavus to fall back on, Hoenn was the first Gen to truly have Ghost options
