DB/DC Dragonite still reign supreme as attacker?

I still believe that DB/DC Dragonite is the alpha attacker in the current meta especially due to Lapras nerf. You rarely see laprases in gyms because of the low CP. Just this would give free free reign for dragonites to lick its chops on taking down gyms. I think dragonites just shot to number 1 attacker ahead of Tyranitar. Vaporeon is the Lapras for Godzilla and with the trickier and buffed Hydro Pump it's not gonna be a cake walk for the big lizard.

I think is better than this new DT/OR. Cruz i prefer dodge, and now DC is a 3 bar move, wich you can spam more often.

And i think this Move set gonna be the best in PVP when it comes out, hope this helps.

Keep in mind that by the time PVP were to come out, your team of 6 DB/DC Dragonites may be obsolete compared to some spoofer with a team of legendaries.

If someone has 6 DB/DC dragonites then he or she is probably a spoofer too.

Tyranitar has better bulk, so less dodging more dmg

Yeah but weak to Vaporeon which is in almost every gym. Niantic eliminated Dragonite's only nemesis from gyms - Lapras. Before Gen 2, DB/DC Nites wrecked gyms. Now that Lapras is dead from gyms, Dnites are unstoppable.

I wish I could say. I do have a couple DB/DC's but dont have a B/SE Trex so there's no way for me to an informed conclusion.

I think Machamp is a more effective counter to Tyranitar

i would agree, but dragonite still has some weaknesses. a good lapras will still run through 2 1/2 dragonites if u dodge semi descently. as a matter of fact, lapras might have turned into one of the best prestigers in the game with its cp nerf. dragonite is also weak to fairies, rock and other dragon.

i of course cant ignore tyranitar having two awful weaknesses in water and double in fighting. machamp has serious value now and vaporeon shits on tyranitar, where it gets mangled by dragonite.

just like in sports, its all about the matchups..
