ancientpower would've been pretty alright for the time if not for the ass-low PP
>>
>>58738004
Because it was a TM

he can't learn it

Import it from RBY

it didn't have access to the TM

Because GF assumed that 105 Attack and 130 Speed is enough to make it useful, even if best it could do in Gen I was spamming Hyper Beam.
In Gen 2 it got Ancient Power, EQ and few other good moves, but it's gen I trade exclusive so lol.

...You mean Smogonoff competitive memes? GF was never designing games around that and when Gen I and Gen II were developed, GF was more bothered with making somewhat good jrpgs instead of thinly veiled pvp client.

Why didn't they just add some actual fucking Flying type moves that don't involve beaks for once? M-Dactyl is going to have to run fucking Wing Attack again
>>
>>58738282
You will use Sky Attack and you will like it.

>>58738296
with the power herb

>>58738282
It doesn't get dual wingbeat?
>>
>>58738282
Wish they'd give it Head Smash and Brave Bird so that it can actually use rock head
>>
>>58739745
Such a retarded choice to avoid making those common sense moves available for what is supposed to be a top class fossil, they wouldn't even be particularly broken on it, the mega loses Rock Head anyway and base form is more balanced.
It should also learn Dragon Dance, it's a frail fast physical attacker with a limited coverage and relies a lot on STAB + EQ, nothing a priority attacker or tank can't check.
>>
>>58738004
It’s little things like this that make you realize GF are complete idiots.

>>58738004
In gen 1-2 they thought of Aerodactyl more as a trophy in your catch em all spree instead of something you'd want to use in battle. Have fun trying to get HP Rock.
