Okay I have to ask this because it's driving me NUTS. Why do people hate on Registeel so much? Seriously, it has A TON of resistances and can take physical and special hits.
I mean I know it can't attack that well but neither can skarmory or Steelix and both of them are pretty good. Only Registeel can take a special hit.
I mean it's resistant to SR and can't be zapped with Toxic, why do people hate it so much? I know its weaknesses suck, but throw in Celebi and Milotic and you've got a pretty solid walling core.
I mean it's a great Porygon-Z counter and takes predicted Explosions. He also owns specsmence's STAB move which is cool. It laughs at Outraging Scarfchomp and you can Explode on it or hit it with Ice Punch.
Even if you make a bad prediction and let Registeel get nailed by a supereffective hit, it's survive and you can switch in a pokemon that resists the attack and gg.
Is it just me or is Registeel underrated seriously? It's a more sturdy SRer than even Bronzong and Swampert and can provide Para or toxic support to a team. And it can BOOM.
So tell me, why do people hate on Registeel?
