Is Snorlax Overrated? (Other than BS)
Other than Body Slam Snorlax.
I keep finding Snorlax easier to beat than Vaperon.
I find Snorlax's Jump mechanic easier to dodge than Water Gun.
I find Earthquake and Hyperbeam far easier to dodge than Hydropump. And AT is even more annoying as it fires non-stop.
I haven't run into Heavy Slam Snorlax yet.
But I do find Vaperon shaves more hps, or forces me to pay more attention by far than snorelax

A good solar beam from a grass type pokemon can take a Vaporean way easier than a snorlax. Body slam Snorlax is indeed annoying. Heavy slam is similar from what I have experienced, except it is a steel type of move and there are pokemons who resist it.
It is way harder to beat a Snorlax and wastes more time too even that Snorlax got Hyper Beam instead, provide that you brought in the right pokemon to do so. From my experience facing different Snorlax, in a big sense, it was Hyper Beam that in long term, hurt the damage output more, because if a pokemon dies without the charge move executed, you wasted time charging that move, and take even more time to beat Snorlax too. But still, a Body/heavy slam Snorlax is still quite annoying. After the update tho, if you have stronger pokemons who dishes out damage fast, then they might get full damage once, and still able to defeat the Snorlax before more charge moves came.
For aqua tail, a pokemon with 2-3 bar move, best with fast execution will solve it, or a single bar but fast executing move.
no is not, it takes longer to kill than vaporeon, even if you dodge snorlax deals more damage with ZH than WA because you still receive damage from dodges but reduced and ZH has more base damage
If you lag or fail to dodge that hyperbeam is practically a lost match unlike vaporeon unless is a jolteon
Eggy can take vaporeon down so easily with 1 single solar beam launched in the whole fight while vs a snorlax it will take atleast 2 solar beams
etc, is not overrated the gym meta defender is ''put whatever last longer plus has high cp''
