I saw a post and reply combo last night that amounted to “I saw a top competitive player say scvi fixed the ice type but until avalugg isn’t a wasted team slot I disagree” and I can’t stop thinking about it. You disagree with a top competitive player because you don’t know how to use a physical defensive wall

#blissey has base 10 defense and is currently actively one of the most popular Pokémon in gen 3 competitive #because its insane health and solid special defense mean it can still totally stifle special attackers #and like yeah ice has a couple more weaknesses than normal but super effective damage doesn’t guarantee a KO or even high damage #Avalugg has respectable health and really good defense. and even its special defense is a lot better than blissey’s defense #with the new snow buffing ice’s defense and Avalugg’s access to ice body that’s the majority of threats in 3 of its weaknesses neutralized #fire’s the only weakness ice has that’s most commonly used as special moves and that’s when you swap a team member who can beat fire types #also if op was talking about in regular gameplay then. even bigger L because Pokémon main game is easier. NPCs don’t strategize #just run strong moves
