"Lugia is a boring nom because he'll just get crushed R1 by like 95% of the entrants "
haha I actually think Lugia would be one of the strongest entrants from the Pokemon series
Behind Charizard and Pikachu, but likely close to Mewtwo.
1) It's the most popular gold/silver/crystal generation Pokemon, based on what I've seen in online polls
2) Pokemon G/S/C, despite losing in the GoTD contest to LoZ:MM, is still a really strong game. Pokemon G/S/C is stronger in the x-stats than LoZ: Wind Waker and MGS3. Lugia would be that game's strongest rep, in my opinion.
I want some G/S/C rep in character battles! that was when I was enjoying Pokemon the most... and I figure in the minds of GameFaqs voters that sentiment is shared.
