A Ghastly, and Dark Discussion


Dad

Recommended Posts

We all know Ghost Pokemon have their many uses, especially Sableye. But what ever happened to the good ole days where Gengar was number 1? With a Ghost Pokemon having a Dark Attribute as well, leading to no weaknesses, do you think they have too much of an advantage?

 

It's times like this when I've come to realize that type may not be everything, but Sableye and Darkrai should be banned from Wi-fi battles. The competition is neign, and we all know Sableye is not only said type, but could be classified as lengendary included. This alone ruins the game, and depletes competition amongst the Pokemon gaming community, IMO.

 

Discuss.

What' date=' no epic speech to go along with it?

 

Anyway, I remember owning everyone with Gengar back in those days

 

Good times

excatly its the same thing with me i had a level 70 Gengar, and NOBODY

could beat me in the union room. NOBODY.

 

Now there's Sableye and Darkrai which are impossible to defeat because

dark is good against psychic.

 

ghost is good against psychic.

 

Only electric, water, grass, and fire are good against those kinds of pokemon.

 

That's all I have to say.

Gengar is still the man though. Many wifi battles still use Gengar, just because he is extremely fast and has high Special Attack power.

 

And Sableye really isn't an issue - he may have no weaknesses, but he isn't terribly resistant to much either. The only types he resists are Psychic(immune), Fighting(immune), Normal(immune), and Poison(resistant). Any other type of attack can hit him just fine, and just because he isn't WEAK to it doesn't mean jack squat. His stats are relatively poor, allowing pokemon like Gengar to walk all over him.

 

Spiritomb is like Sableye, but likewise, is far from unbeatable.

I find it vaguely amusing that the complaint in this thread is that Ghost and Dark types are broken, when only Gengar and Tyranitar even reach the Top Ten of OU usage. Indeed, I'd consider Steel to be a more menacing type, especially as Metagross, Lucario, Bronzong and Heatran are all in the Top Ten.
