Who's the best Normal/Flying pokemon?
>>59376555Staraptor
>>59376555Pidgey
Staraptor
Super Mario
>>59376555Starraptor seems like the best one. Though the optimal way to use it now removes its normal type sadly. If I had to pick a second best because of that then.... Braviary maybe?
>>59376559>>59376561>>59376564>>59376568>>59376578>>59376594Not a single samefag. Very based. Sinnoh wins again.
>>59376555Hard choice but I'm gonna pick Staraptor
>>59376555Staraptor and it’s not close
>>59376555it's definitely staraptor, though an argument could be made for togekiss in gens 4-5 back when it was a normal type.
Staraptor is for nerds
>>59376623I mean to be fair there's very few competitive Normal/Flying types:Pidgeot (Mega Only), Staraptor, Chatot (only because it has an incredible movepool), Braviary, and Toucannon maybe? though it's basically just on the edge of competitive imo. Out of those Starraptor is FAR better than the rest.
>>59376555Staraptor is the only one with a synergistic movepool, ability, typing, and stats.
>>59376687nevermind about Chatot. it lost boomburst in gen 9.
>>59376687Braviary has never really been all that usable, sadly. It's essentially always just been worse Staraptor.
>>59376701it's still the second best out of the choices I listed is my point.
>>59376687swellow is better than chatot, braviary, and toucannonscrappy boomburst is one hell of a drug
>>59376737swellow also lost boomburst in gen 9.
OP here. I never specifically said anything about battling. The wording of 'best' is deliberately vague.
>>59376839>Pic unrelated
Pidgeot for me. He was on my Red team and carried pretty hard in general when I was a kid. Noctowl is another personal favorite from the in game campaign. >competitiveI suck at it and give free wins more often than not but I still take Pidgeot to pvp when avaialble.
>>59376814swellow ain't in gen 9 bro
>>59377238pokemon showdown said it lost it in gen 9
>>59377376???

>>59376555Togekiss until gen 6
>>59377525blame showdown for being retarded
>>59376737I did my ORAS playthrough with a scrappy boomburst Swellow by using Dexnav and that shit is broken before the first gym
>>59376555
