    Best Dragon-Type Pokemon...


    |Salamence|
    .Trait: Intimidate (Lowers the foe's ATTACK.)
    .Personality: Brave (+ Attack * - Speed)
    .Evs: 68, 252, 80, 0, 26, 84
    .Stats:
    [HP] 348 [Attack] 405 [Defense] 216 [Speed] 211 [Sp. Attack] 261 [Sp. Defense] 216

    -Flying Hidden Power
    -Earthquake
    -Fire Blast
    -Dragon Dance
    @Leftovers


    is the best.

    Yup, i agree 100%. But also: https://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/rayquaza read it. Insane trait, pretty funny when people switch in Kyogre, with thunder think ing of a 2HKO-3HKO, and then it misses twice. But in OU, Salamance reigns supreme, how ever, Razquaza is pure pwnage also.

    Actually, it is a fact that Rayquaza is the best Dragon-type, beyond dispute. Its total Base stats are 680 while Salamence and Dragonite are only 600. It has higher stats than Salamence in every stat except Speed (95 vs. 100) and has higher stats than Dragonite in every stat except except Defense (90 vs. 95) and Special Defense (90 vs. 100). Its Attack (150) and Special Attack (150) make up for that and more. There really is no comparison.

    All those stats don't make much of a difference when salamence gets to attack first and 0HKOs it

  • Salamence really stands out against dragon types with its intimidate ability but I still think overall Dragonite is the best

  • While I do love Slalamence for being powerful and Flygon for being cool looking, I've always stuck with Dragonite. The line was the very first, and only dragon type, for a while. Even if it is a bit pudgy, I still think its awsome. It was also supposed to be the fastest pokemon, being able to circle the globe in 16 hrs, and I don't like the fact that they made new guys that are apparently faster than the 'fastest pokemon in the world'.

    What with? dont see no ice beam salamence anywhere. :O what does it OHKO it with then? maybe outrage, but i dunno. Anyway, if you have a properly EV'd Weavile, itll OHKO Salamence, with a Ice Beam. OSNAP!
