Imagine being a mono-rock type Pokemon, having rare access to the move "head smash" which is also rock type, being known as the "Head Butt Pokemon", being based off of Pachycephalosaurus who's known for head butting, and NOT having "Rock Head" as an ability. One of the biggest insults in Pokemon.

Right? Like every single Pokédex entry talks about how it smashes things with its head, it’s the Skull Fossil, a rock type Pokémon, the Head butt Pokémon, based on a dinosaur known to ram things with its head and the cherry on top is it’s only one of 16 Pokémon to learn Rock Smash which is something 1 of 2 Pokémon learned when introduced Let us also not forget the greatest facepalm is that EVERY SINGLE GENERATION has at least ONE game that mentions how it can withstand smashing into things with its head. You know, using a move and not receiving recoil. What ability do you think that describes the best? Game freak clearly dropped the ball and won’t accept they intentionally screwed this mon over just like they did Archeops. What they did to that one is really just a dick move tho

@@stetsonherrick8090 It's not neutered by it having a high attack stat, far from it. The problem with Rampardos is that it has low defenses, is very slow, and has one of the worst defensive types in the game next to ice. No one is going to argue that it can hit hard, with a base 165 attack stat, STAB head smash, and plenty of usable coverage move options, it has the potential to be an extremely threatening offensive powerhouse, at least on paper. The problem is that it has too many flaws that are too significant to just overlook to be truly very viable; more specifically, being both slow AND frail is a recipe for disaster.

118 speed is ridiculous on a pokemon with a 165 Attack and STAB 150 BP stab with swords dance. It wouldn't be frail either with finish 97-80-70 Defenses are more than enough for it to set up a swords dance or even stealth rock and tear apart the opposing team with head smash. It should not have more than 95 Speed, otherwise anything it would rip through any team. A set of max atk, max speed and 4 hp with jolly nature and - Swords Dance - Head Smash - Earthquake - Fire Punch is utterly unwallable. I will put some calcs.

Can we take a moment to note how massive rampardos’ move set is? Sure it has a lot of strong physical moves like head smash, earthquake, elemental punches and many others. But it also has a large special move pool with the elemental beams and surf. It also has a surprising amount of status moves too, capable of stealth rock, a plethora of boosting moves and is one of very few pokemon to learn three different phasing moves. Shame it can’t use its move pool well.

I used one in Brilliant Diamond, got a TM for Rock Slide early thanks to the Grand Underground, and gave it a Hard Stone. Plus, it had the Sheer Force ability, learned Rock Polish by level up, and I could teach it Swords Dance. It fell off pretty quickly once the battles in the game actually became difficult, but it will always hold a special place in my heart for that.
