Togekiss is the full evolved version of Togepi and now, it also has a fairy typing. Togekiss is truly a force to be reckoned with. It honestly does not have bad stat. It's special attack and special defense are where it shines. It can learn so many moves, from attacks to status changing ones. It can be a team's jack of all trades.


#2 - Gyarados

When everyone discovered that Gyarados is a flying/water type, there was some confusion. It isn't a dragon type and that saw some people discard it. Those people were wrong. Gyarados is a powerhouse. No evolutionary line is so different than Magikarp to Gyarados. It can learn a variety of strong attacks and can take quite the hit.


#1 - Charizard

Much like Gyarados, many were absolutely shocked when finding out that Charizard does not have a dragon typing. Instead, it has an actually pretty solid fire/flying typing. To many, Charizard is the best Pokemon of all time. It is extremely popular and can hold its own in battle quite well. From trading cards, to the anime, to competitive battling, Charizard is at the top of a lot of lists.
