Original: As NU's only fully evolved Dragon-type, Altaria is an fairly unique Pokemon. Solid 75 / 90 / 105 defenses and key resistances to common attacking types such as Water and Fire allow her to wall threats such as Swords Dance Samurott and Magmortar sans Hidden Power Ice. In addition, Altaria sports a good support movepool filled with gems such as Heal Bell, Roar and Perish Song. Offensively, Altaria utilises Dragon Dance in combination with Outrage and Earthquake for near perfect coverage. Choice Specs, however much more rare, is used to serve as a wall breaker, dismantling common checks such as Quagsire with Draco Meteor.
