Butterfree is still good though :I

Really? Its stats are awful.

Butterfree's Sp.Atk is epic, also there's Bug Buzz, Quiver Dance, Psybeam (if you're lucky enough, you can confuse the foe with this move).

Also, Silver Wind + STAB is massive death.

Well you have Volcarona who have far better Sp.Atk and the same moves, and Yanmega who is good.
 
Yanmega sucks, seriously.

It's Sp.Defense can't save you from moves like Surf, Psychic, etc.

The only good thing about Yanmega is it's Speed.
 
Yanmega can't even learn fly despite its pokedex entry

i used to think nicknames lowered pokemon's stats

well i listed all my negative n00b day things, my positive ones are


i had a blastoise after beating Lt. surge
I left a rattata lv. 2 in the day care for two years, got back, it was lv. 69
more stuff
 
Butterfree neither because of its bad HP.

Yanmega is actually good with Speed Boost and this set:

- Bug Buzz
- Air Slash
- Hypnosis
- Protect
 
When I was a noob, I thought Natu could learn Fly.

That was back when I always ignored the Pokedex.
 
I used to think that:

Shinx was a normal type
Ratata wasn't that useless
Meowth (Gen 4) was common


That's all Gen 4

Ratatta isnt that useless though.

Seconded
Hyper fang rapes for a good long while and you could even hold on to the thing for 6+ gyms with Super Fang.
 
huh, I always pwned anyone who had them, and I used a level 8-13 pidgey, pretty low...
