And no, I wasn't talking about Noctowl not being released, I was talking about how he got replaced and forgotten. Noctowl is perhaps the most forgotten Normal/Flying Pokemon of all time. Pidgeot, Swellow, Staraptor and arguably Unfezant >>>> Noctowl.
That's probably why the Noctflop stans are so bitter towards Weezing. They can't take that their fave remains forgotten while WeezKing is always mentioned in this thread  |
No, Braviary still exists. And I mean, Noctowl has arguably more stans in this thread, because when Weezing is mentioned it's usually being hated on. The only Noctowl haters are you and Phresh and you didn't start hating on Noctking until Noctowl was being loved, so you're just pressed

Stan, sis. Pokémon doesn't know anything about underperforming, so you're safe here

Because Weezing and Noctowl are obviously the most polarizing Pokemons in this thread 
And let's face it, outside of ATRL, Noctowl IS forgotten. Pidgeot is remembered as the first early Normal/Flying Pokemon (along with Fearow). Swellow, to this day, is remembered as a great sweeper in NU (Guts + Toxic Orb +125 Speed = SLAY). Nearly everyone caught a Staraptor in their games of Pokemon Diamond because he was great in-game. Unfezant was a bit of a reach, so I take that back.

But I've always hated Noctowl He's the most basic, generic Normal/Flying Pokemon in existence. At least the other Normal/Flying Pokemon stood out (bar Unfezant). When will Noctfop?

I can accept that Noctowl isn't the most memorable pokemon to the GP. Just like all of my other faves so I'm used to it.

It's okay sis. I'll admit that Weezing isn't that memorable (you know, aside from being James' first Pokemon) to the GP either.

MESS Weezing doesn't need that basic flying type.
SHe avoids all ground type moves with ha levitate when will noctflop only have 1 weekness?

The most memorable pokémon besides Pikachu is Porygon. People out of Japan remember it as the "One that never appeared in an episode" and Japanese people remember it as the "one who almost killed a nation".

Not me having to switch roles now. 
Weezing is memorable but that's only because Arbok and Weezing were the original Pokemon of Team Rocket. I just don't think they're as brilliant as you and Phresh like to make out they are.

But let's not act like he's stuck in the only tier where he will be useful at, NU, where the most common pokemon is Sawk, and the most common ability on Sawk is Mold Breaker, and you know where this is going.
AND even without Sawk Weezing still is one of the more useless physical walls, even with only one weakness. Poor dat.

There's always Will-o-wisp and Pain Split for the good sis
This is assuming he's not battling a Sawk
