No good STAB, A weakness to the Blizzards (90% Accurate) and Ice Beams that are everywhere (4* weakness for Dragonite), Only strong against other Dragons, Resistances that either don’t matter because Dragonite is also a Flying type (Electric), because no one wants to accidentally defrost an opponent’s Pokemon (Fire), because it’s not really a strong attacking type (Grass), or because basically everyone with a Water move also has an Ice move (Water), And Dragonite’s only viable OU strategy being to use Agility and then to lock you in rng hell while it spams Wrap for 80 turns.

Wow, they made the worm... Metal?! That's incredible! Oh wait, it's not, compared with the context of previous nearly EVERY SINGLE Pokemon Title. There is zero reason why individuals shouldn't be upset with these decisions. It's laughable on top of the technical and performative ability of the game. They waited too long to hop onto the Gen 2 nostalgia train and it shows, there were so many things done right with this game, and in multiple other avenues absolutely shit the bed. It is genuinely perplexing. My comment is for others mostly not for you.

first two actually make some sense, flamingos in real life have much stronger legs than some random birds. Or at least it would pack more punch, even if a sting could be mroe fatal, not to mention it is a fighting type, who in general have higher physical attack, so they probably kick when they fight in Pokémon,and since pokemon do not have to follow real world physics it makes more sense in Pokémon.

Bro Flamigo was epic.

Took Flamigo lvl 8 all the way beating the elite 4. Like this pokemon will carry your entire game if you make a team that helps support it.

Speed in pokemon is more related to acceleration and reaction speed time than max. speed I think. For example Dragonite, it states on the dex how freking fast he is being able to fly the whole globe easily but it has low speed in game, thats because he's slow accelerating and doesnt has an amazing speed reaction, basically a bit cluncky, Jolteon is faster than Dragonite however im pretty sure that a Jolteon cannot do anything closer to a Dragonite flying the globe or a Latios going jet mode, thats because Jolteon accelerates instantly and has a great reaction time.
