Special or physical attackers?

[PsychedelicJellyfish]

Simple question.

I didn't put a 'Both' option because I would like to know which is more popular rather than finding out that people use a mixture. Which I knew anyway.

 

[Blazios]

Both.

OK, serious now.




Both.


I use the same amount of physical and special sweepers, so what else can I say?

 

[Shiny Magmortar]

Personally, I like Physical attackers, but I use both...I like Physical attackers for their "I'm bigger, badder, and stronger than you" appearance...

Special have protection against Intimidate. Thats why I always have a special sweeper first on my team.

Physical...attack-trained Grovyle all the way!

Because I follow the format of Flying, Fire, Electric, Grass, and Water, mostly consisting of Pokémon that specialize in Special Attacks and have a higher Sp. Atk. stat than Atk. stat, generally I follow a Special Sweeper format. Though of course I can just completely flip it around and use more "physical" Special attacks.

Most of my favourites are better Special Sweepers (although, there are exceptions), and they don't have to worry about Intimidate...So, I'm voting for Special Sweepers.

i like special sweepers better.

I like special attackers better.

 

[Hotshot]

I DEFINITELY prefer Physical Attackers. Check my team. I have barely any Special....Well, my Pokemon are pretty special...but they don't use Special moves.....well, I would say that Close Combat is a pretty special move.....Ah, whatever....

Special attackers. Protection against Intimidate. Special attackers doesnt touch opponent. They are immune to Static, Effect Spore, Flame Body.......

special moves are usually stronger (but usually have less PP and less pokemon learn them)
