    • @gengarzilla1685
      @gengarzilla1685 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      At 552, Florges has the second highest base stat total of any non-legendary that isn't a pseudo-legend, Mega Evolution, Slaking, or Archeops, being only three points behind Arcanine. This Pokémon is by no means just about looking pretty; it could definitely pay off well for an in-game team if you don't mind the very limited movepool.
