No, because CHARIZARD gets Brave Bird+, Head Smash+, and BST bump to 131 Attack.

>65 def
Azurill used aqua jet!

80% accuracy on headsmash means no

No, and thank goodness. I dont want more hideous flying creatures in OU

It's fine where it is, Aerodactyl is the kind of mons that can easily skip OU and get to Ubers with a slight buff, rock stab with great attack and amazing speed tier does not forgive

this asshole seriously doesn't have head smash?

what's the point of it having rock head then?

Nowhere as bad like Aurorus not being able to learn Power Gem so it can have something other than Ancient Power besides Meteor Beam for special Rock STAB or Golurk only having Phantom Force and Poltergeist for physical Ghost STAB. Or the plethora of physical Electric-type Pokemon only having Wild Charge or Thunder Fang.

But no rock head..

252+ Atk Choice Band Huge Power Azurill Aqua Jet vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Aerodactyl: 158-186 (52.4 - 61.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

golurk gets shadow punch with iron fist desu. Also Poltergeist is stronger than and more accurate than stone edge, plus is resisted by fewer types. of all the problems golurk has, good STAB attacks are not among them

>Also Poltergeist is more accurate than stone edge
That sure is handy for a Pokemon with No Guard.

Lmao no, it'd be OU at best but the accuracy on head smash, stealth rock weakness, and bad typing overall will make it mediocre there too.

and? what do you want golurk to have? what non-existent move would be better for it?

no need, Brave Bird+ and Head Smash+ remove recoil

Nonono, they DRAIN HP instead. And Kantonian Flare Blitz++ (which is a CHARIZARD signature) has priority and it's a full heal also CHARIZARD has 9999 on all base stats

Aerodactyl obliterates anything that doesn't resist Rock or Flying, and naturally outspeeds most of the meta

genie survives and ohkos easily

Poltergeist is a great stab move unless you're playing in game. In that case you only got iron fist anyway so shadow punch isn't bad

What happens when you miss a headsmash? Which you will of course. I get fucked by it on my tyrantrum set constantly

simply kill your opponent irl
