Damn, thought I was being slick with a super critical absol. Boo. Lol thanks for the advice, I've taken notes. I'm gonna have to breed a whole new hydregion, but I was thinking of switching him out, too many weaknesses. So what do you prefer for a dragon type? Not fond of garchomp, seems like everyone I battle has one, lol
