Kurimugen is the only dragon I would consider using. I typically don't like dragon Pokemon, aside from Dragonair, I think their designs are incredibly boring. Kurimugen just looks awesome, I can't wait to catch one.

I will be using this. I love it's competitive abilities. It's my favorite Pokemon so far to use Boiling Water in a moveset. It's shiny form gives it that Ghost-Type feel too. |
Yeah, at least with Altaria, my justification is, "Well, it's a bird with dragon genes, so not a full-fledged dragon, so its stats kinda make sense despite her typing as she's more like Pidgeot and less like Salamence, you know? Besides, if GF did things right, she'd be Flying/Dragon, not Dragon/Flying; idk about others but in my head Altaria is primarily a bird pogey.
There is no excuse for this thing, though. It's unevolved but so what? It doesn't look weak to me, so why the lame speed? Its stats are fine, but that speed is really not. If it needs thermals in order to fly (like raptors, I can see dragons needing those if they existed), then why not give it a Dragon-like version of Chlorophyll? Something, anything, to fix that crippling speed. And the other issue is, how are you going to compete with it? Ursaring is one slow mofo, but not every Normal type has Ursaring's insane attack stat plus Guts, right? So actually Ursaring is a fine choice for a Normal type. But with Kuri, there is always going to be comparison between him and his fellow dragons. You could argue Altaria gets compared all the time too, but the thing is, people find different uses for her. Natural Cure + Rest works wonders, as does Cloud Nine with Roost, and Dragon Dance works well in sync with EQ and Outrage. No Dragon has Natural Cure except her, and only Rayquaza, who is banned to Ubers, is immune to the effects of weather. So while Altaria has craptastic offenses for a Dragon, it's far from useless; she has a set of traits (including her looks) that makes her unique. But people will not be so lenient with Kurimugan; even if our new Dragons are all banned to Ubers, that still doesn't mean Kurimugan can be used in OU where you've got everyone and their grandma packing Ice moves or otherwise super-powerful moves that will shut this thing down before it can do anything. I really wish GF had to stopped to THINK for just one second on this one; some people may like this dragon and use it, but if you think most people are not going to go, "Hmmm, should I use Kurimugan, or should I use Dragonite, Flygon, Garchomp, Hydragon, Kingdra, Ononokusu, Salamence...?" How is that even a contest? It even gets Mold Breaker via DW, but Ononokusu already has that ability, so who's NOT going to say, "lol Kurimugan is just a bad Ononokusu". XD It is not all hopeless if you like Kurimugan, however. There is such a thing as Trick Room which you can have Slowbro set up (I say Slowbro because he finds Ice attacks laughable, and Kurimugan resists Grass and Electric, plus has Crunch to deal with any Ghost that pesters Slowbro, plus Superpower for Dark types), or else you can switch Kuri into something that won't kill it, and use Glare on the foe (or the incoming pogey; works better than Thunder Wave 'cause Glare (yep! it gets Glare!) will paralyse anything without Limber) then proceed to hit stuff. tl;dr - Kurimugan is not a bad Pokemon, just a bad dragon. I still don't like his design, though; I'm sticking to Altaria (in UU), Kingdra (in OU) and Reshiram (in Ubers) plz. :D I don't know why Adeku has a Kurimugan (hey, it must be one proud Kuri, getting used by the champ) but my guessing is that if Adeku was real he'd obviously be a highly skilled trainer, and I've seen people win battles with anything from Skitty to Vespiquen, and Kuri is by far more usable than either one of those; after all, it's skills, and not the Pokemon, what really makes a trainer. |
Devil Flamingo, i love reading your posts, and i agree, Kurimugan isnt at all bad. I thin he was made aesthetically though rather than for serious business.

I love the female version. We got a ton of bugs this gen. I like them alot.
|
I think the B/W pokemon could use some slack, there's a lot of them I really like (Desukan FTW) but I'll admit that there's a few of which I'm wondering what the creators were thinking, but it's different, and different isn't always bad.
Plus more Monkey pokes >.< |
I dont have any least favourites, but my favourites are definitely the three fire,water and grass monkeys. THEY ARE ADORABLEEEEE! XD

I love the female shiny sprite heaps. I will use the male in the games, although. I like how they have different crowns on their head to represent king and queen. |

The only bug I really love is Denchura. The others (even apparently the ugliest one, like, the purple one) actually aren't that bad as a whole, but I still dunno what I think regarding the moth.

I LOVE how they made so many Bug Pokemon that you can actually use this time around. Next generation the Poison-Type better get the same treatment or I'm coming at them with razor blades & lemon juice!
Seriously, this is the only Poison-Type that I like this time around... and even then I don't LOVE it. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/545.pnghttp://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/back/545.png |
Emonga is my favorite! What's not to love about a flying Pakirisu?
As far as least favorite: Mamanbou. Oh I see, it evolves from Luvdisc. Wait, it doesn't evolve from Luvdisc. So essentially, it's just a rehash of Luvdisc. ... Doubleyew. Tee. Eff. |
