Mixed Attacker
Strategy Overview
Flareon in RBY OU faces heavy competition from the bulkier and faster Moltres as a Fire-type mixed attacker. Its notably higher Attack stat paired with Body Slam pressures Chansey and Starmie more heavily than Moltres can, but it is crippled more by paralysis and fares notably worse against physical attackers like Snorlax and Tauros. Flareon is reliant on good prediction and some luck to be effective, making it a risky option not recommended for most RBY OU teams.
