You never know how many times I've battled and the outcome would've been different if my pokemon attacked first. Special is there just cuz it makes some of the most powerful attacks already (flamethrower, Surf, Leaf Blade, Thunderbolt) more powerful.
Attack and defense! If my Pokemon doesn't have a decent attack and defense, then it's not coming with me! I once bought tons of items to raise defense and attack and I gave it to my Absol. I think I bought like 16 items each for raising defense and attack, or something like that. Then my Absol was just unstopible!
