I'd just like to point out that the fastest pokemon is MAGIKARP. I think that in itself raises more questions than anything else.

Also, Defensively, Happiny outranks Chansey who manages to beat Blissey without Eviolite.

Solosis beats out Duosion, while Reuniclus' Special attack is not even on the list.

Wynaut beats Wobbuffet defensively as well.

Oh, and Bronzor is listed but Bronzong isn't.

That, and Cleffa and Mantyke manage to be on the list, but Clefable and Mantine are nowhere to be seen.

Hell, Gastly outclasses Chandelure's Special Attack.

I think i see a trend...prevos being godly compared to their evos. That, ultimately, seems kind of unbalanced.

Also, i know this is just flavor, but this is Pokemon, and pokemon are supposed to grow and train to evolve to fight better. Ultimately, this means an evolved pokemon should be better than its prevo (with the exception of maybe Shedinja in some cases). If this is no longer the case, then it's not really Pokemon.
