Unfortunately, in the last few generations of the meta, it's too slow and frail, and the lack of a good secondary typing holds it back, as Dragon STAB only hasn't been good since the introduction of Fairy type.

I am actually playing Ag with emboar(reckless), zygarde(50% with power construct), urshifu-rapid stike, glimmora, Hawlucha (mold breaker and defog) and metagross(clear body) One answer: if somebody uses defog in my metagross, it will defog the spikes, the rocks, or metagross isn't affected by defog?
@zacmayes2802 Жыл бұрын
Clear body only prevents the stat lowering part so I believe it will still clear the hazards. I've seen a video where someone used spicy extract, a move that lowers a stat(I forgot which one) but raises the attack stat by 2 stages on his ally clear body dragapult. The spicy extract didn't lower the stat and only boosted the attack stat. Also please put a punching glove on that rapid-strike
