gamefreak's track record of designing pokemon is so wack like imagine designing a defensively oriented grass type whose primary purpose is supporting its team with things like aromatherapy and dual screens and not giving it sleep powder. or making a pair of magnificent dogs where one of them gets banned to anything goes along the likes of mega rayquaza and the other is stuck using howl to boost its attack if it wants to boost it in any way that matters. imagine creating a whole pokemon type, assigning it to a single evolutionary line, and giving it one move that always does a set amount of damage, a funny oversight that only gets sort of fixed in the following generation. imagine a physically strong legendary dragon whose best sets still feature special moves for coverage because it doesn't get things like earthquake. iconic game design
