Hydreigon is ALWAYS an excellent choice. Wide movepool, pretty much perfect coverage, good speed and the ability to act as a mixed sweeper, the only thing holding Hydreigon back was its weakish defenses and lots of weaknesses (Fairy x 4, Fighting, Bug, Ice, Dragon).

It's even better with silly strings, and is immune to them itself.

Reudh, I'd be interested in having sparring matches with you. I am no expert but I'll do my best to keep you entertained.

Akroma and umiman, come to think about it, Infiltrator does have more utility for a Noivern. I'm going for the first set (Choice Specs) and replace Boomburst with Focus Blast for coverage.

EDIT: Have been getting Pokebank mons from Wonder Trade. Darmanitan and Harvest Tropius. Also received a HA Chimchar with egg moves from a giveaway. Still waiting for Felligatr and Sceptile though.

EDIT2: Got Smeargle with Happy Hour and Pokerus.

Napalm is great if you enjoy hot and spicy foods. I personally enjoy some liquid nitrogen.

My personal experience has been it really is only weak to fairy. Everything else there it's only 2x weak to.

That might be a problem for lesser pokemon, but Hydreigon like the other super dragons, has so much hp and defense that it really doesn't care too much about those 2x weaknesses.

For example, it takes anywhere between 2 - 4 (2 for STAB or boosted, 4 for regular) ice beams to kill it. In that same time period, Hydreigon would have turned your ice beam user into a pile of dust as it's probably faster than it.

Hydreigon, Salamence, Goodra, and Dragonite always give me shivers. It's really hard to fight them and you never know what they're going to do.

What do Hydreigon, Salamence, Goodra, and Dragonite have in common?

Well, Hydreigon, Salamence and Dragonite are all capable of acting as mixed pokemon, and Dragonite and Goodra are good at taking hits (Multiscale and huge SpDef respectively).

Hydreigon and Salamence both have abilities that assist their sweeping (Hustle boosting damage at the cost of accuracy, Intimidate increasing physical survivability, and Moxie assisting in a sweep after a KO).

600 stats. Pseudo-legendaries. Also, unlike the other pseudos, those 4 have such stupidly massive movepools that you never know what they're going to do.

Here's more info on the pseudo-legendaries.

To help illustrate my point, I made a team of 6 Hydreigons. They don't share a single move or item but are still incredibly deadly.

Hydreigon has Levitate.

Haha, I can make one for Dragonite too:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Dragonite's movepool is even larger than Hydreigon. I could make a 9-pokemon team of only Dragonites without using the same items or moves.

Hopefully my examples help explain why I hate fighting them though haha. It's impossible to try and outsmart something that's not only crazy versatile, but extremely strong. Fighting them is basically luck, especially against random strangers.

It's a shame Phione has no notable use, due to being outclassed by its parental Manaphy.

Meanwhile, I have no idea why I'm breeding a box of this things. I suppose I'm hoping if I masuda a shiny I can trade it for something. Like Manaphy.

Every dwarf, every dwarven man, women, and child, that comes to our forts will die there; it's truly sad when you think about it. And we ask our selves, why? Why do we push forward, knowing this fate, that we are destined for failure? Because, this game grasps the concept of mortality. Some games you can never lose, but we all stop eventually, causing a 'death' to those game's 'worlds'. Dwarf Fortress gives us a definite end, knowing that we will leave that world eventually, and move on to more.

I'd rather you have it than Wonder Trading it. If you have HA Nidorina with Sucker Punch or HA Crawdaunt with Aqua Jet and Knock-Off, it'd be great. Otherwise, I'll take any breeding rejects.
