I really love sandslash. But i think gamefreak just doesnt like it cause its continually outclassed in everything. ):

With over 600 Pokemon, chances are it would be extremely difficult to avoid something outclassing something. I wish (realism be darned) that they would retcon stats and abilities so that more Pokemon were competitively comparable to the current most useful 50 or 60, but even if such a ridiculous overhaul were to happen, there would likely still be clear "bests."

646 Pokemon... So many... I can still name'em all XD

But anyways, All Pkmn have their uses. Some need help from the more useful ones, but they still have their uses. Magikarp, for example Lol

why doesnt Yanmega learn Fly in heartgold?

Because the game isn't coded for it to learn Fly legally.

Lots of Bug-Flying types can't learn fly. Bugs aren't really creatures of flight. Their flying skills are pretty poor compared to a lot of birds and bats and whatnot.

About Sandslash though, he will be a lot better once his Dream World Ability is released, assuming that it will be! :p Sand Rush is his Dream World Ability , though, the same one that Excadrill has, which doubles their Speed in a Sandstorm ! I doubt that it will be enough to make Sandslash Uber , but it will probably help him at least get to OverUsed , hopefully!

I like Sandslash ! I might use him on my FireRed Version when I Restart it sometime, if get him in whatever kind of Challenge I do, though. Assuming that I do one! :p :D :)

i dont know anymore
I used to be completely in love with my Infernape. Ever since I started Pearl I just loved those Pokemon to bits. I was also able to say these are my top 5, Infernape, Gengar, yada yada, and be decisive.
But now, I don't know if its because of all the cool ones in gen V but its really hard to pick a favorite Pokemon, or even some!

Love is in the air
I competitively used a Bibarel once. He was actually pretty good with his Curse Set. I forget his other moves...

Don't forget the pro contender in the 'goofiest pokemon' competition :3

Lol aye... Actually, if we're to go, in serious terms, off of battling, the Contests in D/p/Plt he can be astounding at, with his range of moves he can learn. I had a Bibarel that was trained for COOL. Ya'll have no idea how COOL he was in the COOL Contests. He became the master of COOL. Did I forget to mention COOL? Hahaha...

Also, Idk if it's normally posted in the news section, but ya'll know about the Kyurem Forme coding found in B&W?

Lopunny, my dragon slayer. She can be use for support if you wanna be boring like that. But I prefer tossing a life orb and use fake out and start with fighting against the element. I'm sure there are many other pokemon who is better and Versatile, in Thunder Punch, Fire Punch, and Ice Punch. But I going with this one since she can become a awesome dragon slayer if play right. Also, she extremely fast.

Look at the rabbit go!

I like battlers who think like you, knowing the pokemon you use is outclassed, but like it's design and perks to keep at it anyways.

I'm training a Pawniard for the 1st time on my current Black playthrough, shame it takes to level 52 to evolve, thankfully it's caught at level 38.

Post-Game I'm gonna breed it for Pshycho Cut.

I actually think the high-level evolutions in 5th gen are a good thing. It makes you appreciate the evolution more.

yeah, like Volcarona and Hydreigon. They evolve at really high levels. I prefer lower leveled evolutions more though. I juts like seeing the evolution animation. I think it's cool.
