Which Pokemon do you feel deserve buffs (stat changes, type changes, ability changes) and why?

[LoungYink]

Exactly what is said in the title - what Pokemon do you love that you feel needs or deserves buffs of some kind? What changes would you make and why?

Hello, I've moved your thread over to Pokemon Gaming Central since it discusses more of the game mechanics and is more fitting here.

Make Arbok Poison/Dark, up its attack to 100 and speed to 95, AND buff its moveset. It's egregious the way Arbok got shafted, such a great design and I have been waiting 20 years for it to be usable.

A lot of poison types imo, like Arbok and Swalot. Sawsbuck too. I don't think it has too many moves to take advantage of its HA (Serene Grace)?

Oh good call on Sawsbuck as well. Such a good design wasted, you could probably change it to grass/fairy as the changing with the seasons has such a whymsical feel to it.

Considering the absurdly powerful pokemon that now exist, it feels unfair that Slaking has to be stuck with Truant. I wish it could get an alternative hidden ability.

Castform. MandJTv people can see why.

I think Toxicroak deserves some buffs because of all the powerful Pokemon that got released and are stronger. Gf could buff his atk by 20 points or so.

meganium too, possibly? it's got a really mediocre movepool and is really subpar compared to the other johto starters. does have some decent TM options though, but I don't think its stats really do it many favors in that regard. :(
