The only thing going for it is its really high Attack, but with lower Speed than Caterpie and non-existent bulk, MissingNo is a really bad Pokemon. However, there are some glitch Pokemon that are actually broken and can definitely destroy the entire game in a solo run.

      ... yeah, disappointing I couldn't add MORE common grammar; speling errors into that sentence... I feel like a failure on that front... there has got to be some way to misuse there/their/they're in that sentence, while having noun to pronoun relationship confusion showing up (that is when a WHICH noun a pronoun refers to is really really unclear)... I even manage to mess up latter/ladder/later, than/then--and manage to mess up the word "allot" in a way that isn't the standard "a lot/allot" (yes, abuse of a semicolon is just shooting fish in a barrel)
      *edit* : the reason I am excited for the you're/your fuck up, was originally that was me attempting to mix up "this/that/over there", until I remembered that isn't a feature of the English language and thus not a common issue in English xD

      Pokés that just start with a normal attack (non-stab) or worse just run into a Brock-Wall for like an hour, unless you can make it up later like Mew because of an insane movepool, it's just brutal.
      Hence why gamefreak used rock for the first 3 of 4 gyms, and fire/fighting for 3 - rock is the perfect "first gym" type if you give the fire starter metal claw or a fighting move. Everyone early game poké has jack shit to deal with it, but the starters will sweep through it. Makes rock pokémon look way more intimidating. Like, Onix is legendarily garbage and only impressive exactly as Brock's ace because it's high-level for that point in the game and then its defence which makes up nearly half its BST means something.
      Now imagine GF learned their lesson and stopped making the ice gym 7th or higher every gen since it also would be a wonderful early gym with its glass cannon nature when not everyone and their mom has an answer to them.

    I feel like Starmie has a chance of being up there with the legendary birds. Brock is a joke, letting you plow past gym 1 right away. Despite the fact it doesn't learn moves on its own, you get BubbleBeam very early. Once you get past Misty and Surge the run opens up a lot. And both of those fights aren't horrible. Starmie can even learn thunderbolt from Surge and put it to good use. But the run really starts to get stupid if you pick up both ice beam and psychic.

      I mean, Dragonite has worse stats than Mew (same base stat total but *much* slower, the attack isn’t the most important, and less bulk for what it’s worth), a worse experience group, and a worse movepool, though they both have poor starting moves. *And* no STAB, so arguably worse typing too. I’m not sure why it was even considered as a contender to beat Mewtwo, though it’s 100% a cool run to see!

    • @Redpoppy80
      @Redpoppy80 3 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Same. Dragonite is OK but for a Pseudo Legendary, Dragonite sucks. I used a Dragonite a lot in Pokemon Stadium and while it had the best Atk stat, the lack of ANY good moves for it meant that you were forced to wait until it learned Hyper Beam or just treat it as a Special Sweeper. Unless you wanted to cheese with Wrap as Dragonite was the best trapper in the Gen though I was never patient enough for such a slow strategy.

      The problem with a run with Dragonite is you have to use Dratini to get Hyperbeam at level 50. If Dragonite has Hyperbeam its much better. I had a feeling it wasn't going to beat Gengar or Alakazam.

      Unfortunately arcanine has a pretty mediocre move pool. Takedown and ember are its starting moves, and while it does get access to dig and body slam, that’s about all it can do. Gyarados is sure to be a pain to get past in the endgame.
      It would do OK, but certainly worse than Dragonite.

      SwSh were not balanced around infinite grinding in the wild area. You can easily break the game if you do that, not just by getting good moves but also by being very overleveled quickly. The TMs in comparison are way worse, probably about as bad as in gen 2, so you will lack good moves if you don't abuse the wild area.

      @@zeaferjones1404 Fairly decent point. But I was still making a funny. TRs in Sword and Shield was just rediculous.

    I have a very tiny optimization if you care. After you beat Sabrina, you can step on the teleporter and then dig away, instead of just digging. If you do this you will do the teleport animation to the center instead of doing the spin animation. Its probably only a free second at most (not sped up), but it's a neat trick.

      A cool trick, like being able to fish into the statues at gyms. But I don't think it'd save time because you have to walk back to the teleport thing first and at speed up you probably end up teleporting inside the gym rather then to the centre.
