Salamence banned from OU
Jerry:
Every powerful pokemon has its weakness. Had Nintendo created a pokemon with no weakness and god-like stats, well, there will be no fun point in playing.
That said, having a weakness doesn't automatically mean that it's not powerful. One of the reasons that dragons get x4 damage to ice is that they would otherwise be too powerful. Anyway, that's my 2 cents.
I don't care about the weaknesses, I just play to have fun, get/devise/guess strategies to beat such and such pokemon team.

Thanks for pointing that out, Jerry. I was tired when I wrote that and what I was thinking didn't quite make it to the post. Edited.
Jerry:
I understand, I do these too when I'm tired. I'll have to edit my post now :)

Back when I played Shoddy Battle, I saw Salamence often. Though he wasn't always hard to deal with. Anything with ice shard would mow him down, and I even had an Infernape with hidden power ice and no EVs in special attack that could OHKO a Salamence that switched in. He's a great sweeper, but he's not the one I'm most afraid of. Gyarados is because once he uses a DD he's faster than just about any unbuffed pokemon out there, and there's no priority electric move.

wow i was so mean back when i first started posting sry to everyone i offended... but i know the game says they only have x2 weakness and all that stuff it really dont show if u play it out u'll see they ALL take alotta get ko'd after one ice beam from anything with an average speacial. u may not like it but play it out and see... but even that isnt the serious problem the problem is ice and electric moves are learned by just about anyone nowa days actually even in the old games almost everyone can use ice or electric moves so there for dragons and flying types i don't usually favor but gyarados can be a BIG problem at times if ur not prepared for it.
it is funny though two of my faves are charizard and crobat...both flying types trust me i hate electric moves from non electric pokemon
