Dragon Pokemon ..Need Help

[Viper]

I still say that you go with flygon because he has great speed, sp. attack, and attack. My flygon knows draco meteor, dragon claw, earthquake, and heat wave. And the fact that it shouldnt really have a problem with ice types makes him awesomer. But if you dont want flygon, i would totally go with kingdra or salamence.

And why would u say he doesnt have a problem with ice? Ice is 4x effective against flygon

Did it ever occur to you that he has high speed and can learn fire type moves such as fire blast, heat wave, etc. or moves like stone edge and such.

I understand that, just sounds like ur saying hes immune to ice

Ice Shard has priority, like Quick Attack, and is the most commonly seen physical ice move in all metagames. And while those attacks work, they also have lower than optimal accuracies. Ice moves, in general, have 100%.

So, Flygon can do well against opposing Pokemon with an ice move. It's usually better to U-Turn out into something that can take it.

I dun like flygon...
When I pick my pokemon, I go as much with looks as I do with actual stats. Flygon kind of looks like a fly... I hate flies.
I've never used it myself, but Kingdra is a pretty good pokemon, and Dragonite is always a good choice, with the addition of making a lot of people (me) feel nostalgic.
Though, from that list, I'd say Garchomp, then Dragonite, then Salamence.
Not that Salamence isn't good, but...

He is as ugly as a rock.

But, I think I have a new favorite Dragon.

In all honesty, I can easily seem him being neutered from the OU metagame. His only STAB is Dragon, but he has an Attack close to Groudon's, great speed, learns Dragon Dance and Claw Sharpen, and has a pretty wicked move pool. Plus, he can always use an ice reduction berry. Ouch.

Still, finally: we get a good looking Dragon to back up all that power.

Were you referring to Salamence or your new Pokemon As Ugly as a Rock?

Theres that dark/dragon hydra thing as well Sazandra was his name
He looks like he could be a good special sweeper. Yours has better stats though. I'll probably try and go for both, anyway.

That dragon looks like a dinosuar! Oh, Shi-!

and ur making the mistake of comparing flygon to ice types i mean ur right he can destroy most ice types if u ask me but another type of pokemon with an ice type move is what i would fear if i were u like a nidoking ... i don't care what attack flygon does he is not going to ko nidoking in one hit...so then an ice puch or ice beam and flygon is history. and nidoking is just one of many examples

Nidoking is part Poison and weak to Ground Attacks. Flygon is faster than Nidoking. He can easily OHKO Nidoking with an Earthquake.

[Frenchfry]

Try to condense your messages into a single post next time, deadae.
And flygon is ugly as an insect. If you find insects pretty, then I can undrstand why you might like flygon.

Anyway... In my humble opinion, there is a problem with the game if it is easy to OHKO when the levels are equal and neither of them have outrageously high stats.
