Serously, Gligar is C-? It takes on nearly any physical attack from any attack in the tier.
It has access to Roost, Stealth Rock, U-Turn, Toxic, and Defog. With titanic physical defense it should never be in C-. Immunity is also a great option to avoid Toxic Stalling. It may not have the best Special typing or Stats, and its not like it should be in A+ rank, but at least make it B+ to B-.
agreed it should be higher, but probably only C/C+ maximum because:
- low attack stat (75 isn't enough, not even ohkoing m.doom)
- no recoveries, forced to run roost
- hawlucha sd on it and basically anything flying say hello to it
- roost cost a momentum, and make it vulnerable to grass attack (mind super drain)
- lose 1-on-1 against most walls (florges, vaporeon, chansey, slowbro, milotic, swampert, amoongus, gastrodon, jellicent, gourgeist, quagsire, slowking, tangrowth)
- afraid of knok off like it's cryptonite
on another note, gligar do learn knock off, taunt, tailwind, power trick, sword dance, rock polish, hone claw, substitute and baton pass. (C'mon, imagine rock polish+power trick)
also no further nomination for snorlax to be higher?
I mean, since everyone has a special tank, that means snorlax is useful against everyone no?
body slam paralysis switch-in is annoying, return+curse is powerful, assault vest is viable and the traditional restalk is not that bad. full ev on def is possible, very powerful coverage moves in crunch/pursuit, eq, brick break/superpower, elemental-up punches, rock slide, gunk shot, heavy slam and outrage(lol).
I know it's gimmicky but anyone tried belly drum/sitrus berry+covet?
