ITT: what really grinds your gears about Pokémon
Why isn’t there a good 90+ bp physical move for Flying types?
Why isn’t there a good 90+ bp special Rock or Fighting type move?
Also, why did they not fix the trainer and wild pokemon levels in HG/SS? That also grinds my gears.

>Why isn’t there a good 90+ bp physical move for Flying types?
I should rephrase that, for ALL flying types like Lando-T, G-dos and Salamence, not just birds

DualWingBeat fixed non-avian physical Flying types. 80 BP is serviceable.

Rock is intended to be the high risk (miss chance) high reward (flinch, high crit) physical type.

Fighting is THE physical type, there should be no special moves at all.

Flying has brave bird and dual wing beat (2*40 > 90 due to sash and sash)

How Game Freak seems more interested in removing options so Little Timmy doesn't accidently make it to hard for himself instead of adding options so maximize ways people can enjoy the games. Really gotta compete with Clash of Clans and Flappy Bird

None of the mons you mentioned deserve it, or rights for that matter.

>>58778435
this isn't gen 1 2 or 3 anymore, every physical flying type has plenty of options even if they aren't of that type. lando-t is absolutely fine without having a flying type stab as it still has earthquake. gen 3 kingler is very shit because it doesn't have any good stab, but if it was say part normal or rock, there wouldn't be any problem. there are barely any special only rock and fighting types (and glimmora has enough of a special attack for 80bp to be enough). the only thing close to an annoyance is the lack of widespread physical electric type moves, and that's primarily because the physical electric types with bad physical stabs are also mono types (there's only 3 and even then they have very serviceable special attack stats too for in game uses)

Brave Bird and Dual Wingbeat.

Meteor Beam.

>Noooooo, every move must have a variant for every type. Fuck type feel.
OP probably

rock is meant to be a defensive type but steel outclasses it and every mon has enough coverage to exploit its weaknesses

>Noooo! Why do I need to actually play the game to get muh shiny?!

>>58778652
lol no
Look up the competitively viable rock moves, they ALL have low accuracy but with relevant additional effects.

Your dopamine called. It wants you to go back to jacking off to children again.
