      every time an *NPC* uses Dragon Rush, it works and it's devastating.
      every time *us players* use Dragon Rush, it either works or it will cost us dearly.
      this is why i stick to Dragon Claw, Dragon Tail and Breaking Swipe. they're safer choices for physical dragon-type moves.

      but at least it hits because of superior accuracy compared to Dragon Rush.
      in terms of accuracy, it's Dragon Tail's 90% vs Dragon Rush's 75%.
      so despite the drawback of Dragon Tail forcibly switching out the opposing pokemon, i'd still pick it over Dragon Rush.

This is considering how 60% of all Mega evolutions are pokemon that Veteran players would more commonly use, while others receive it either for story purposes or picking a few that trainers should show love for.

    Here's an updated version:
    Gen 5: the only thing to add is the specialist is Benga, Alder's Grandson and the final Boss Trainer of the Black Tower in B2 and White Treehollow in W2.
    Gen 6: the only thing to add is the specialist Zinnia, who has a major role in the Delta episode of ORAS.
    Gen 7: the only thing to add is Alolan Exeggutor, which MandJTV forgot to add.
    Gen 8: the new pokémon added was Regidrago, added in the DLC of Crown Tundra.
    The new move was Dragon Energy, the signature move of Regidrago, which is a clone of Water spout.
    Gen 9: the new pokémon were Cyclizar, the 3 forms of Tatsugiri, Baxcalibur, Roaring Moon, Koraidon, Miraidon, Walking Wake, Dipplin and Terror Storm. Off these the mascots of Scarlet and Violet and Cyclizar would make by far the biggest impact.
    The new moves were Glaive rush, Baxcalibur's signature move with 120 BP and 100 acc that has a negative effect, which makes it so if Baxcalibur uses it, and doesn't K.O. the target, it's next move will not miss and will deal double the damage. And the other move is Order up, the signatur move of Dondozo. Normally it only does damage, however, if an allied Tatsugiri activates its ability Commander, Order up will give to Dondozo an increased stat depending on which Tatsugiri activated it. If it was the Curly form, it will give to Dondozo a +1 attack. If it was the Droopy form, a +1 defense, and if it was the Stretchy form a +1 speed.
    The specialist is Hassel, art teacher of the academy and elite 4.

    18:30 You misunderstood the purpose of mega evolution then. It definitely wasn't just to make underpowered Pokémon better. Some were for buffs, but the concept as a whole was very obviously also a ploy to give new forms to popular Pokémon regardless of their power level. I'd argue the answer is never "these megas shouldn't have been made." More megas is always the answer 😁

    Breaking Swipe is very widely used because of its ability to lower stats with spread. But until recently Dragon Darts was very common as an attack move for Dragapult (and lots of people used Dragapult in some way up until the latest VGC series). But it became more common to use Dragapult as a support Mon that could set up G-Max Coallossal, set up screens, or reliably burn opponents.

    I think it makes sense to have a Dragon specialist in the Elite Four because it was a huge surprise to players in the 90's. It was a type you had most likely never seen in the entire playthrough, it was resistant to all starters, and it was only weak to a one of the rarest types in the first game. Without player's guides or the internet, this was a huge twist ending.

    I think the idea with Dragon type in Gen 2 was that it was a type that you basically had no experience battling up until you fought Lance of the Elite four, and given that it resisted most of your starters moves, it was meant to be a moment you couldn't have prepared for (also remember the Internet and Strategy guides were in their infancy at the time as well). On the flip side if you leveled up a Dragonite, it was able to resist most of what was thrown at it, plus it could learn a large variety of moves, including ice, fire, electric and water
