Now am I the only one who is surprised this piece of shit is so popular? If you ask me, Crobat is possibly the most overrated Pokemon in UU. Why hasn't he dropped to RU all this time? Now before I get any hate on this post, let me take some time to say this; I've used Crobat recently, and it was just so....Weak. That's all to say. Weak and pathetic. This piece of shit is so bad it's not even funny.
One negative aspect of Crobat is (this also applies to other Flying-types): Stealth Rock weakness. Every time Crobat switches in, he loses 1/4 of his health. I don't like that. Not when to make matters worse; Crobat has little to no offensive presence, not to mention his dismal movepool makes him walled real easily. That's bad. That's more than enough to offset the 130 Base Speed.
Also, his bulk is pretty average at best. It allows him to get KO'd easily by Zapdos and Raikou, two of the most dangerous Pokemon in the tier. Hell, I'm pretty sure I can beat this weak shit with a Scarf Froslass if I tried hard enough.
Now not only that..but Yanmega, Togekiss, and Honchkrow are simply better Flying-types in general. They have much more offensive presence, have better coverage, and have a niche that makes them good..Yanmega has Speed Boost and Tinted Lens, letting it either be fast, or unwallable. Togekiss's claim to fame is Parahax with Air Slash and Thunder Wave. Honchkrow can ambush things with Brave Bird and Sucker Punch. What does Crobat have to stand out? Nothing. So tell me, how has Crobat managed to stay UU this long? No really, when from my experience he's turned out to be an overall mediocre Pokemon. He is weak, pathetic, and lame. Everything Crobat can do, the other Flying-types do better. So why is Crobat the most popular of the Flying-types? Really.
