No problem. Usually I think any B ranked or higher pokemon definitely deserves one. But, some more obscure pokemon like Heliolisk still have a thread (and Alexwolf doesn't want to close it), so I think the mods are much less likely to close them now.

Now, I'll just be happy if the Vivillon thread gets reopened. Oh well. :P

I just have a soft spot for Hippowdon as he is usually one of the things I rely on most in my teams (im a Ground monotype user first, OU second after all) course there he is known as Freeze Magnet. :D

Freeze Magnet? As in he can handle ice types the best? Sorry I'm a bit confused :P
I've only ever tried fairy monotype.:)

Oh he has a habit of getting Frozen....at a rather infrequent rate...

Mainly due to all the Ice Punches he use to absorb and junk.

Oh. That makes sense. I wouldn't want the 5 billion 4x weak to ice ground types taking Ice Punches.

Pretty impressive
