Well they're all ubars (assuming the Eons are getting soul dew just to reach the stats of the other ubars besides poor Jirachi who's just useless). Throw on them just basic sweeping moves and you win with brutally high stats already.
Having Fly is a disadvantage that can be easily countered...
Rayquaza uses Fly. You miss. No biggie, I'll just switch to something that can resist Flying moves, or even increase my attack or defence stats to survive. Of course, there are enough moves that can hit a Flying Pokemon, the most powerful being Thunder of course, which is enough to make a dent even in Rayquaza.
The same goes for moves like Bounce, Dig and Dive. All of these moves give your opponent a free turn to do whatever, switch to something appropriate, boost stats or set up combos like Endure + Reversal.
Eh, my Rayza is my Fly slave. I don't have much use for dragons that can get pwned by Snorunts. Mewtwo gets pwned easily by Ninjask. Same goes for Deoxys FR.
Well anyone of the tier one pokes / soul dewing lati@s /Kyroge
but IMO lugia with its high defenses and pressure and recover and aeroblast really sucks.................
I would give Rayquazza some credit though
i mean it has a 4x weakness but with high offensive stats + sp he can really devastate a team even one with ice beamers........
save kyroge that is.
the problem with Rayquaza is that its so defenseless against ice beam that the chance of pulling off anything more than one dragon dance is extremely slim x_x; as it doesn't have much resistance/defensive abilities either... all good dragon dancers have a x4 weakness, but at least Salamence has intimidate to hold off some physical sweepers. Dragonite has many supportive moves like thunder wave. Tyranitar got plenty of type resistance and can survive super effective attacks (except fighting) with quite a bit of ease. Rayquaza doesn't have any of these properties even though it receives the most benefit from Dragon dance compare to everyone else x_x;
I like jirachi! It's awesomly strong. Hardly ever faints in Colosseum.
It really has killer moves with psychic and thunderbolt + some other move, it can grab an advantage over almost anything. And the steel type adds so much..,,
Mew having the DNA of all the pokemon doesn't seem to affect the game... Mew has two great advantages:
1) His total stats are pretty high, plus all his stats are evenly distributed.
2)He can learn all the TM and HM moves.
That also means he can be trained in many types roles. Sometimes, he's strategy is near unpredictable or unexpected.
Something I noticed long ago that doesn't make me kinda happy... Most decent Ice Beamers (Dewgong, Articuno, Suicune, etc) have average to low speed, thus giving Dragons a one-turn advantage. In a one-on-one fight, it may not be much of a huge advantage, but it amplifies in team battles, where BPers are around. Then again, (if I'm not wrong) all ubers except Mew (GSC glitch) and Celebi can't learn BP.
