WHO WOULD WIN? DRAGONITE OR SALAMENCE?

Dragonite, provided he could get ahold of Blizzard Tm
 
As for the looks department...Dragonite all the way. His cute sorta bad ass look would fool Salamence into going easy on it, then Blizzard would make Salamence be like "zomg I waz rong!11"
 
IMO, it would be Dragonite. Although... both are consider OU & Pseudo-legendaries, Speed and Sp.Def stats count as well...

Salamence outspeed Drago but Drago has a base Sp.def stat of 100 & Def stat of 95...
Drago can KO Salamence with Blizzard or any other SE atks....
But I can say Salamence is one powerful OU...

omg...wow i had way different opinions lol. For looks i would go with salamence all the way. I have a shiny one for instance in diamond and he is bright green pretty nice one to have actually. and in strength I would probably say dragonite however salamence's speed might actually overpower dragonite and catch it with stone edge or rock slide or some devastating move.
 
I neglected to raise this point in my first argument, but dragonite is first gen which means he automatically beats a salemence due to the "the first-gen nostalgia superiority complex phenomenon" which states any first generation pokemon can/will defeat any other pokemon from subsequent generations.

For example, a caterpie could easily beat a Salemence.



(PS This is me having a dry humor and love of first gen pokemon, everything I said in this post is a lie- but hopefully my joke isn't entirely unnappreciated)

Not a lie. Caterpie's are tanks and are REALLY cool ._. They were made cooler again by the anime and "Cow"terpie :) I love the bad jokes in Pokemon, they make me laugh.
Btw, it was who would win in looks and strength. Caterpie has Salamence covered in the looks department...so I guess it's a draw? :)

Nostalgia ftw, Dragonite was considered the machine of the first gen. For good reason :D
 
It makes me laugh because with pokemonsave (computer file that allows you to hack pokemon in saved games) I could easily make an uber caterpie :D

Maxed out Stats:
FireBlast
ThunderBolt
Blizzard
Body Slam

(I would likely give it a better moveset than that- just tired and thinking of clearly strong attacks and could exploit different weakness)
 
We must battle them sometimes, I do warn you however, my caterpie will be wearing a quickclaw and be equipped with psychic and fire attacks.
 
Salamence.

I mean
Who USES Dragonite? :S
I mean, I like Dragonite a lot more
But, in order to correlate to the topic
Salamence would mop the floor with Dragonite, any day.

That's the sad truth of it. There's little that's better about Dragonite.
 
hmmm it appears in our pokemon battle of the words I may have been defeated.
