Flygon or Krookodile in BW2?

Question

I'm thinking if I should use Flygon or Krookodile. I'm also thinking of having a Fighting type or a Psychic type.

Flygon moveset:
Dragon Claw
Rock Slide
Earthquake
Crunch

Krookodile moveset:
Thrash
Foul Play
Crunch
Earthquake

Please help me decide.

You should use Krookodile because it has higher physical attack and learns earthquake earlier. https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/pokemon-black-2-and-white-2-in-game-tiers-quality-control.3675959/ Also dragons are bad.

Answer 1

Flygon
- Solid Attack and Speed
- Ground and Dragon hits a lot for at least neutral
- Levitate is pretty good
- Gets moves like Dragon Claw, Fire Punch, U-turn, Fly, and Strength
- Average 80 in its other stats
- Takes longer to evolve than Sandile/Krokorok

Krookodile
- Great Abilities in Intimidate and Moxie
- Dark hits a lot of things super effectively in Unova
- Respectable Speed and HP, excellent Attack
- Learns moves like Crunch, Earthquake, and Strength
- Weak to common types
- Slower than Flygon

Use Krookodile. It's harder-hitting, and it has a better type combination for offense.

Krookodile @ Soft Sand / Blackglasses
Ability: Intimidate / Moxie
- Earthquake
- Crunch
- Strength / Dig*
- Return

*Dig should only be used to escape caves.

Hope I helped!

Why brick break? A super effective brick break is weaker than a neutrally effective STAB earthquake.
