That being said, I still respect its rock typing. Game Freak made the perfect foil to Tyranitar and they didn't even realize this when designing that ugly lighter PoS from gen 8.

Just buff Aggron's BST to 600. He deserves it

I prefer fast Dragon-types anyway. That's why I don't miss Onix and Steelix being part Dragon either. You look at Druddigon and Drampa and Turtonator and they're not as beloved as the ones with a workable Speed.

Yeah but STAB Head Smash with no recoil is still pretty cool
Nobody would use Dragon Aggron over Archaludon anyway

Thanks for pointing that out. This website pokedex doesn't list egg moves so I was wondering if was missing something.

Godzilla is not a dragon. Look at an asian dragon, then look at Godzilla. Name one similarity other than vaguely reptilian.

Aggron would lose his main use in lower tiers with stab head smash to become a mediocre bulky mon with no recovery and utility begins and ends with stealth rock.

The steel/rock defensive typing isn't that terrible if Aggron had any special bulk and could soak neutral hits

Not that anon, but I hate to say, that steel/rock typing has a lot of interesting uses that steel/dragon doesn't. Offensively it's not even close, steel/dragon is horrible, but defensively, you also have more 4x resistances with the current typing. Normal and Flying, which are basically safe switch ins. Steel/Dragon has only one 4x resist which is grass, which is not very offensive anyway. Both have 6 neutral weaknesses.

If Aggron could hit super fucking hard, and be an offensive pokemon like its typing demands, and it had enough bulk to survive basic special attacks, it would be a fairly good (or great) Pokemon already. If it had drain punch too, it would be decent today. It could be offensive while also recovering.

Game Freak is too out of touch to realize the offensive potential.
Oh wait, even if they DO make an offensively oriented Rock type Pokemon Game Freak still manages to fuck it up (as seen with Aerodactyl, Archeops, and Lycanroc).

Would Aerodactyl with Head Smash or Archeops not having Defeatist even be that OP when taking gen 9's powercreep into consideration, or is Game Freak's idea of balancing is akin to moral relativity? Even in a fucking playthrough some fully evolved Pokemon are shit while others are broken.
