Pokemon Buffs That Came WAY Too Late



Some Pokemon took years to finally receive the buffs that would have been useful when they debuted. Too bad for them, they were too late.

  1. I will never get some of these "buffs". Hydreigon doesn't make sense with rocks, it is an all-out attacker, there are better options for rocks (lots), or tspikes on Gengar. It is paper thin weak, there is no reason to put them instead of the coverage that badly needs

  2. I wonder what a “Pokemon Buffs that came Too Early” video might look like

    Like for example Azumarill having Huge Power in Gen 3 before physical special split or fairy typing

  3. I just now realized I wasn't subscribed to your channel after accompanying it for over a year. Sorry😅

  4. waiting for the counterparts to complete:
    – Seviper
    – other gen 5 monkeys
    – Gothitelle
    – Tornadus
    – Aromatisse
    – Phione

    And I guess we could finish up Gen 2 with Sunflora, Magcargo (Slugma Male Grindset paying off when?) and Corsola. I think those are the only gen 2 Pokemon left to wrap it up

  5. Hydreigon should have had nasty plot since Gen V. It's the quintessential dark type and not having a single truly viable boosting move until Gen IX was a tragedy for it.

    Torterra and Blastoise should have had shell smash since Gen V as well. Tera is what pushed Blastoise beyond the point of modest power and Mega Blastoise to Ubers.

  6. I always wanted flygon to get a speed stat buff so it could use hone claws for dragon rush and stone edge.

  7. Giving it dragon dance only now and snubbing it twice for mega evolution reveals, damn..

    They really hate Flygon

  8. Why are you constantly talking in circles these days? You repeat so many talking points 3 or 4 times that the videos are getting exhausting to listen to.

    I feel like you're either using AI for the scripts or your using it at least to outline.. Or you've just changed a lot..

  9. Gengar’s dex and anime appearances made you think he would get nasty plot right off the bat but I guess gamefreak thought he was not mischievous enough lol

  10. A lot of the pokemon mentioned in this video are available BDSP.

    To me, it's a lot of fun playing the gen 4 roster but with all the changes up to gen 8 and getting to see some of these pokemon have thier opportunity to be in the spotlight 🙂

  11. i wonder if you guys could do a series like "How good __ COULD have been" where you come up with a whole in depth and thought out alternate timeline of events where a pokemon got 1 or 2 small but impactful changes. Like electivire coming out with a good physical electric move and not losing any speed upon evolving.

  12. I doubt it'd be enough given how bad power creep has gotten, maybe give Hydreigon more moves for coverage. Like it already gets Flamethrower, Fire Blast, Surf, and Hydro Pump. They may as well just give it Ice Beam, Blizzard, Thunderbolt, and Thunder too. And also give it moves like Aura Sphere and Power Gem. It also needs a Hidden Ability too. I feel that either Contrary or Sheer Force would be solid options for a possible Hidden Ability.

  13. Blastoise got shell smash way too late too. Imagine he would've been a banned Mega monster in Gen 6 and 7.

  14. Mega Ampharos got Flash Canon in Legends ZA that lets it threaten fairy snd ice type Pokémon I'm sure this will finally make it viable haha… right guys?
