hello have you met my friend Tapu Lele

basically Murkrow has the same issues as any other dedicated support Pokemon: if you Taunt it you're down a Pokemon, if you get hit with Fake Out you're potentially losing a ton of momentum, and it's a lot easier to kill than most other things; Murkrow faces even more problems because its typing leaves it unaffected by terrain and vulnerable to Spore. In most cases you're just better off with a more "complete" Pokemon, even if it doesn't offer the same level of support, because it's just better in some aspect or another.

I do think Murkrow is a really interesting Pokemon but I don't believe it has a place in the meta
