Comments

Flagging because this appears to be a discussion question.

What does that mean? I’m still fairly new to pokemon db.

---

What is your definition of "strong"? Do you want the Pokemon with the most base stat total or something else?
Also what are the most important parts of that video? I think I should be able to answer this question without watching the whole thing.

---

What do you mean? By BST? Should it be Pokemon native to that region?

---

Attack wise. And what video?

---

Yes, it must be native.

---

The video in the description.

Try clicking it.

---

So you want the Pokemon from Gen 1-8 native to that region with the highest attacking stat?

---

Correct.

The Pokémon has to be native to the region. Basically it needs to have been introduced in that generation.
