Best Flying type in your opinion.

[icjdclay]

Who do you think is the best?

Fearow

Pideot

Swellow

Noctowl

[Bleach and Sunshine]

Jumpluff,Xatu,Noctowl,Crobat,Altraia,Swably,Aerodactyl,.Should'nt tis be in Pokemon General.

[icjdclay]

i was just seeing out of those. I didn't mean to offend anyone who likes other flying Pokemon who were posted. I will keep this in mind. So instead i will make it broader. Which flying is the best out of all of them?

[Red Hornet]

The classical Pidgeot is the best flying type, but closely followed by the Legendry Birds.

[icjdclay]

The legendaries are over-rated. Sorry, but this is very true.

[Bleach and Sunshine]

I put my choice in one of them you have to see where it is.I know what you were talking about.

[Red Hornet]

The legendaries are over rated but when used the right way they are quite strong. But nothing beats a classic Pidgeot.

[icjdclay]

i'm sorry, a fearow could beat the crap out of a pidgeot any day. You don't think so, and i'll prove it to you at school one day.

[Bobby]

This is better off in Pokemon General, and I like pidgeot best.

[Arcanine]

Yea I'll move it to Pokemon General now.
*Moved*

[icjdclay]

what's the big idea on where it's at? i'm new so i really don't know.

[[Technya]]

Zapdos, Ho oh, Articuno, Fearow and Skarmory

[dark_croconaw]

Pidgeot, Noctowl, Altaria, and Moltres are my favorites.

[Wario Man]

I personally like Lugia...he's my favorite Legendary; him and Entei.

[_Rayquaza_Adict_]

Rayquaza!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mew_master]

technically pidgeot is supposed to be the best, but i think fearow is better because his attack and speed are higher and can learn mirror move and drill peck. but closely followed are lugia, articuno, raquaza, and skarmory in that order

[Stevo-kun]

I say Pidgeot, closely followed by Swellow. They both RAWK ^^.

I don't use legendaries XD

Agreed.

[marillmonster2000]

Rayquaza!!
As A Close Follower, Pidgeot.

[Murpheos]

Pidgeot, old school bird, flies at Mach 2!

[Lord of the Spheal]

I gotta go with Skarmory. The legendaries are a bit too cheap for my tastes, but then again, all legendaries are cheap. Still... nothing wrong with winning you know?

[Kyosuke]

Out of all of those, I would say Pigeot is my favourite not just because its there, but also overall.

I have a deep appriation towards the orginal 151 for making pokemon what it is, so I'm sort of biased towards Pigeot XD.

[_Rayquaza_Adict_]

Spheal, so are you, OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

o_O


Rayquaza is better because:

1.Higher stats.
2.Looks like a dragon more so than other Poke'mon.
3.Flys faster, farther, higher and lives longer.
4. Cool moves like Outrage and Extremespeed.
5.Would last longer in battle.
6.Only weakness is ice and ice Poke'mon can be hurt easily with Flamethrower.
7.Is not affected by weather conditions.
8.An attack like Hyper Beam paired with it's high Sp. attack capability, and
SP. stat enhancers could destroy any poke'mon that it would be effective against, or nearly Knock out.
9.Ledgendary status gives it high rarity, and higher stats.
10. It is, in terms of stats, the most powerful poke'mon.
11. It could destroy the elite four without getting damaged at level 100
12. He is even stronger than Deoxys.

[marillmonster2000]

Rayquaza is better because:

1.Higher stats.
Agread.

2.Looks like a dragon more so than other Poke'mon.
There Are Many Different Kinds Of Dragons.

3.Flys faster, farther, higher and lives longer.
That Doesn't Really Matter In The Game.

4. Cool moves like Outrage and Extremespeed.
Not to Forget Hyper Beam And Crunch!^^

5.Would last longer in battle.
Can't Argue With That!

6.Only weakness is ice and ice Poke'mon can be hurt easily with Flamethrower.
Most Ice Pokemon Are Half Water, So I'd Recomend Teaching Your Rayquaza Thunderbolt Of Something Around Those Lines. Also, Rayquaza Is Weak Against Rock And Electricity.

7.Is not affected by weather conditions.
There Are Cooler Abilities.Take Wonder Guard For Example XD

8.An attack like Hyper Beam paired with it's high Sp. attack capability, and
SP. stat enhancers could destroy any poke'mon that it would be effective against, or nearly Knock out.
Well, Actually Hyper Beam Is A Normal Type Attack, So Rayquaza's SP. Attack Wouldmn't Affect It.

9.Ledgendary status gives it high rarity, and higher stats.
True.

10. It is, in terms of stats, the most powerful poke'mon.
I Thought Mewtwo Was...I'm Probably Wrong.

11. It could destroy the elite four without getting damaged at level 100
O.o

12. He is even stronger than Deoxys.
A Lot Of Pokemon Are.

[sybersaur3000]

I really like Rayquaza^^ Its super powerful and wise.

[Lion Heart]

Uh.. NO.

-_-.

Gyarados owns as a flyer, Skarmory is hell tough, Dodrio > Pidgeot.

Uh, Anything > Rayquaza, Charizard ain't bad either.

Why all the praise to Pidgeot?

Look at it's stats it is severely outclass by Dodrio and Swellow, I personally think Pidgeot is one of the worst flyers available, next to Pelipper...

Dragonite is a great Subpuncher, more useful than anything Pidgot will ever be able to do.

And uh, Mewtwo > Rayquaza/All other pokemon for highest SA in the game.

People, we need clean, straight, FACTS.

[_Rayquaza_Adict_]

So, it's attack is one point higher than it's special attack.

But Attack is Physical and Sp. Attack is Powers I belive.

I have beat the elite four without getting any damage except when the idiots use Fake Out which does two damage to me...


But it is also a dragon type, giving it advatages of learning all elemental moves, My four Rayquazas have different ones, Flamethrower, ThunderBolt, Ice Beam, Crunch.


Oddly Dark moves are effective against rock type.

Steel type/Grass/Bug=Flamethrower.
Ice/Water=Thunderbolt.
Dragon/flying/grass/ground=Ice Beam
Ghost/Psychic.=Crunch
Fighting/Bug/Grass= Fly.


Not affected much by elemental moves except Ice.
Immune to ground moves.


Rayquaza looks more like a Dragon, Salemence looks like a mix between a Stegosaurus and has the head of a carnivore. Flygon looks bug-like. Dragonite looks more dragon like, well it's other stages don't though. Latias and Latios look.... odd.

Rayquaza fits the Dragon type better. It is the best of the Ledgendaries.

It's ledgendary status gives it an ability to learn more moves, same as it's Dragon/Flying type.


It all depends on the strategy, but Rayquaza behind a good trainer is unbeatable unless the idiot uses the idiotic stat lowering moves, which just tends to get the person mad, and defeat the person he is going against, using moves such as Shock Wave which never miss.

You could have a level 1 poke'mon that knows fake out ( level 1 poke'mon don't exist.) but if they did, they could beat a level 100 shedinja. and go up 20 levels or so.

[Claire]

With those four listed (fearow, pidgeot, swellow and noctowl) i'd most likely choose pidgeot

I think Skarmory and Charizard are the best flying types. Skarmory because steel is so stongly defensive against so many types, and charizard because of the range of attacks it can learn.
Some of the dragons some people listed don't have flying as their first/second type ^^;

[husk1442]

technically pidgeot is supposed to be the best, but i think fearow is better because his attack and speed are higher and can learn mirror move and drill peck. but closely followed are lugia, articuno, raquaza, and skarmory in that order

Actually dodrio beats Fearow in attack

So Dodrio wins

[Mr Cat Dog]

I like Articuno because its very graceful and sweet. Plus, its one of a kind (I think... o_O) and can use the Mind Reader/Sheer Cold combo :P Cheap - I know XD

[_Rayquaza_Adict_]

My favorite BIRD flying type, would have to be Dodtrio, my favorite attack is Tri Attack.

[Stripes]

Pidgeot by far out of those listed.

[Furaigon]

Togetic is my favorite Pokemon, Togetic is a flying type, therefore IMO the best flying type is Togetic. :P

[Lion Heart]

Out of the 4 mentioned, Swellow is the best, higher attack and higher speed, it outclasses them with ease.

[~Dragonair~]

I like Pidgeot of those four the most but if I would´ve chosen my favorite flying type it still would´ve been Pidgeot.

[Wolf_Goddess]

Alataria (did I spell that right?) Its flying/dragon, AND it could learn Earthquake (One of the strongest ground moves in the game) so it could cream any electric pokemon before it could shock it!

[~Dragonair~]

I didn´t know Altaria could learn Earthquake. Zapdos counts as a flying type Pokemon right? If I am talking about the best flying Pokemon or the strongest it must be Lugia because it is pretty hard to take it down.

[O]

Rayquaza looks more like a Dragon, Salemence looks like a mix between a Stegosaurus and has the head of a carnivore. Flygon looks bug-like. Dragonite looks more dragon like, well it's other stages don't though. Latias and Latios look.... odd.

There are many dragons. Rayquaza is the one that looks most like an 'Asian' Dragon. Asian Dragons are those big long dangly ones. :p THere are many more types of Dragons.

For me it would be a cross between Pidgeot and Charizard. Pidgeot is that old skool flyer, and the first 151 are the really original Pokémon. DO you think they can handle a 5th set of Pokémon after the 4th?

[Wolf_Goddess]

[FONT=Arial]I didn´t know Altaria could learn Earthquake.FONT]

It can! The bird Gym Leader (I forgot her name... Aarg!) has an Altaria that knows Earthquake. It killed my Manectric...
