A certain pokemon that everyone underestimates, but is really strong at even 30 is the Sandshrew. I have seen first hand a sandshrew I own defeat a lvl 60 Golbat.now if this is the case, how is it this poor titan is overlooked? mostly the moveset and the people who kill the fun n the game who do the math and say his stats are lower than the norm. whats everyone's opinion on this adorable killing machine?

i like Sanslash much better

but me bieng me i'm not real fond of earth-style attacks or types

however i do occsiaonally use a Marrowak, and am hopin to get my claws onto a claw-move Sandslash raised from a sandshrew

it's a good poke: but irpefer fire type due to, as said abotu interesting movepools vrs ground type's not-so-nteresting MPs

however i will say this - those electric pokemon who uses stuff like zap cannon get on my nerves so i usually pack a ground Type/move or two

I love sandshrew. Sure, mine is evolved into a sandlash and whatnot, but it's a very powerful pokemon. It would hold out longer than the higher level pokemon I had XD Its attacks are great, and if you give them a tm, I would expect no less. But yeah, this sand mouse packs a punch.

On a competitive level... no, I don't think so. There are things about it which could be annoying, but there are other pokemon that pull off anything it could do much better, at a start its evolved form.

well, i'l ljsut say: competitively people should try to win with their faves:

for me thats Blazekin, Scizor, & Cerulean Gardevior

it doenst really have a 'theme' to it but thats cause they're my faves and always will be

my reasons i'll leave unsaid so that no one jumps my throat again

anyways Marrowak was a good use for me in the Leaf-green/Fire-Red age, but know my 'ground type' is Rhyperior

it depends on your personal intrests
it is powerful
just people want something stronger and more impressive to look at
no one would ever think that a level 100 pichu is powerful
it is just which attacks u teach them and how u use those attacks (dig and alike moves)
it is realy just how clever u realy are
