You know, I never did understand why like Gengar was part Poison. In the original 151, I don't think they learned any Poison moves that and even though Ghost > Psychic there weren't any real Ghost type moves to use, and Alakazams ended up knocking them out.
Don't get me wrong about the Poison type, i love it and all... it just saddens me it's not as much use as it could be.
Toxicroak is one of my favorites, as are Muk and Crobat.
(my team of favorites includes Toxicroak, Volcarona, Galvantula, Typhlosion, Crobat, Stunfisk)

Ok, yes, poison types sucked at first, but that was when pokemon was just starting. Now, there are tons of type combinations, more moves to choose from, and better poison types in general. Dark poison types like Skuntank and Drapion are not affected by psychic, and gengar can levitate, making ground type moves just fail. Poison types may not be used so much, but they are fun to play with, and when you do, you get a hell of a laugh watching your opponent struggle with the many status effects and heavy hitters you can bring to the table.
Don't just look at the main type, look at the type combos and check the moves and abilities, plus the stats before saying something isn't that useful.

Well, I'm talking about Poison type in a generalization, through the ages. Currently more can be done with it that is true, but it still is the underdog of types, when thinking about Poison by itself.
Opposite end of thr spectrum i think is Dragon. Resilient to the "elemental" types (AKA fire,water,electric,grass) and their stats are pretty high. Most are 'late-bloomer' evolutions ehich supposed to be a drawback, but with B/W, the xp system says otherwise.

Again, missing the point here. No one is talking about the B/W games here. They are talking about PU. I know you cant get onto PO, but trust us when we say that some pokes are fun to use now, like Vileplume, Arbok, Gengar, and mroe poison types. A lot of the dragon types got a nerf for PU. Go read the completed reports to get a sense of what we're talking about. They are found in the balance testing board, and titled "Completed reports." Go read some before making another generalization.
