I have an idea for a Best Team video. How about the best teams for various regions, but the twist here is that the best teams can have starter Pokémon in your team. This can already drastically change how you play Pokémon.
Lance, Iris, and Raihan’s teams are not full Dragon, but I guess that’s how it is due to the limitations in the Pokédex. Lance’s team, though, is boring, as he uses way too many Flying-types on his team as a Champion, and he wasn’t too good as an Elite Four Member back then either. I have to say, the more least competitive Dragon user compared to Lance, though, is Drasna. Lance’s PWT team is a huge improvement, though! 😬
Raihan is a disgrace. Rather than have a full team of dragon types and teach them weather effects he filled his team with non-dragon types. He’s worse than Lance. At least the non-dragon types on Lance’s team were in the Dragon egg group.
I would call that more brilliant. He is utilizing weather with some of the best weather setters. Torkoal for sun, honestly could have used Pelipper with Drizzle, and for Sand, use a 'mon with Sand Stream, like Steelix or Rhyperior
@@yeetus2547 My mistake. Regardless, he has a Sandaconda that I just remembered, with the Sand Spit ability, plus he teaches his Flygon sandstorm sometime between the gym challenge and the Champion Cup, plus gets a Goodra with Rain Dance
Raihan should’ve been labeled a weather trainer instead of a dragon trainer. Have him trailblaze a new class of gym leader that use specific strategies like weather teams, Trick Room teams, etc. instead of specializing in one type.
I would have to disagree. Maybe Raihans gym battle has half dragon types. Same as lance. Only difference is lances 3 dragons are the same Pokémon. I think it was just a bad idea to have game freak put a dragon master in a game lacking dragons. But raihans elite four battle, shown in the video, is pretty strong, and has a unique gimmick in the weather team.
If you werent handed a mega rayquaza, zinnia could make for an awesome post game boss battle. even wallace was great as an opponent in the delta episode, and fighting zinnia's team led by her mega salamence could be epic using your own pokemon which were probably just at the right levels. aside from that, I really like Drake - hoenn takes the cake for me in terms of dragon type boss trainers
I think the top 10 best Dragon type trainers 10: Ryuki 9, Drasna if only she had Mega Altaria on her team but for some reason Megas in Xand Y games were Limited to The Player, Champion Korrina ab
Sorry let me start again I think the top 10 Best Dragon type trainers are 10, Ryuki 9, Drasna I only she had Mega Altaria since for some reason Megas in X and Y games were Limited to the Player, Champion Korrina and Evil team leader then she might’ve been stronger 8, Zinnia 7, Drake 6, 5, Raihan 4, Drayden 3, Iris 2, Clair 1, Lance best.
I feel what really shafts Drasna is dragon types unbalanced representation. It doesn't have the same BST spread as most other types, with it's high number of pseudos and legendaries. Drasna's team isn't 'bad' overall, just average. But it also does have two of the weakest dragons by BST.
@@yorecf9641 Truly... the disrespect this region gave her XD Took the pseudo, skipped over for the mega (seriously, a mega altaria would really make her team interesting), and only given four pokemon, three of them under 500 BST. They really should have given her a tyrantrum...
@@Dusxio and Diantha took Tyrantrum, too :P Though Drasna couldn’t have a Mega Altaria in XY since that one wasn’t released until ORAS. She could’ve had a Mega Ampharos at least.
@@yorecf9641 Wow... Just... wow... Why did they bother making a dragon type elite four if they gave all the good dragon types, aside from noivern, to the champion? And don't get my wrong, I love noivern, but it's far from the Greatest Dragon out there...
Zinnia is the easiest due to the fact that it is FORCED to be easy. You can bring a level 3 poochyena to the fight, you will still be forced to lead with an overleveled, mega-box-legendary which outspeeds and OHKO every mon on her team.
So not an in game trainer, but I played competitive monotype in gen 6 and 7, and know a player who was briefly the best dragon main in the world for a brief stint in gen 6, before oras brought mega altaria into the picture but after mega latias was released
This is my favorite type. Lance was the coolest trainer I ever met in my pokemon journey and I loved how he mixed in pokemon that weren't dragon type but they looked like dragons, and could use dragon type moves. I want to be a trainer like that with my Charizard. I mainly focus on the dragon look for my teammates 🦖🥷🏾👍🏾
Well, to be fair to Cynthia, she never claimed to be a Dragon-type specialist. Garchomp's simply her ace 'mon. (If you go by Masters, she includes Kommo-o on her team.)
Bruh, Lance is 100% straight Offense! Lmao He only has damage dealing moves on his team, so yeah, I can see why someone could get overwhelmed. You literally won't have a break from the onslaught to change the tide!
The grass types next! Edit: To MysticUmbreon thanks for the replied thank you so much Im dont know how to use the telegram unfortantly but im curious to ask what prize did I get?
I do appreciate even the worst Dragon-type teams since Dragon is one of my favorite types, and aside from Sinnoh, it's nice to see it get some good representation over the years. It gets me excited every time to see what kind of team the Dragon-type user of a region has.
Haven't watched yet but before thought, need to be more dragon types even if they arent amazing. There's 100s of water types but there is a diverse range between amazing and terrible. Dragon type mostly has no range especially if you dont want legendary's.
@@sifibruh7055 I do get that, as fairy is a thing, I thought they might give some other options is all, doesn't have to be garchomp just something a bit different
The worst Dragon type Pokémon team of all time is probably the one used in Pokémon Black and White, in the 8th Gym. That’s not the Trainer’s fault, the Dragon type was severely limited
They could’ve at least added a Zweilous so that they weren’t limited to only three Pokémon. Maybe also Archeops since BW2 Iris thinks it’s close enough.
@@macwelch8599 yeah, I know see how that was confusing. I should’ve said, “Added at least a Zweilous so that they have more than just three Pokémon on their team.”
Drasna got screwed by virtue of being introduced in the generation that featured Dragon type’s new weakness. And I’m still waiting for her to be redeemed. At least make her better than Lance
I know Cynthia had one dragon, Garchomp, but I say as long as a trainer has one dragon, that makes them a dragon trainer, if they know how to use a dragon type, and since Garchomp is her ace, she is an amazing dragon trainer!
By that logic, Volo, Diantha, Wally, Leon, and USUM Cyrus are dragon trainers as well. This would also make Kiawe a normal type trainer since he can use a Mega Kangaskhan in the USUM Battle Tree.
I hope this new scarlet and violet version should have better dragon types I just hope they got bad ass design aswell not those stupid looking designs from galar
Hard to believe it took until gen 5 for Lance to have an actual dragon type team If only Kanto and Johto had more dragons back then instead of making them so obscure
Love this video Mystic great job 👏🏻

Nice list mystic
Well put together, this one.
Garchomp = The Shaq of Pokemon
Lance turned from bird keeper to dragon master. Way to go
The way you handled Ryuki & Drasna almost feels like you wish you swapped their placement, lol.
He should’ve. Drasna is a joke, sadly.
Another great video
Dragon tales, dragon tales, its almost time for dragon tales.
11:00 and, he has a Hydreigon in anime
although he will face off against diantha the queen of fairy😅

YES new video
I do not consider Raihan, Lance or Iris "Dragon" trainers since there not a full team of Dragons.
I can't wait for the Dark type video
Which strongest type trainer video are you doing next? Ghost or dark
Been my favorite typing since the very beginning 🔥🔥

At least, I considered him to be the best dragon player, and was active enough in the tournament scene to have an opinion
7:29 The moveset of Iris' Hydreigon is same as Ghetsis' Hydreigon
What about Drake from Hoenn Elite Four
Mega Altaria, we all miss you.

Best dragon team:-
Hisuian Goodra
Kingdra
Dragagle
Dracozolt
Dragapult
Tyrantrum.
Lance the OG is always #1
I love dragonight
Wish he would stop saying that these battles aren’t as hard if you over level. Obviously they’ll be easier if you’re over leveling your Pokémon

Tbf Galar's dragon mons are the type of mons that grows on you from time to time. I hated Dragapult's design when I first saw it but I love it now.
@@ibushi5467 dragapult and duraludon and eternatus was the only good looking design for me, the rest are meh,
