Unown: the worst Pokemon of any type that still manages to get more attention in the anime than Ho-Oh, Raikou, Ash's Heracross, and Cynthia's Garchomp.

Not a fan of Altaria, but with those defensive stats, don't let it set up a dragon dance or two, cuz these "okay" attack and speed stats are gonna sweep you!

In my opinion, the fact that it's a dragon type alone makes it so it shouldn't have been considered worse than Alolan Raticate. Altaria actually has some redeeming qualities, Alolan Raticate doesn't: it's too slow and has too weak of attacking stats to be any good offensively, even with Swords Dance, it's not that bulky, and it's defensive typing is pretty bad. Not only that, but hilarious enough, it was so bad that in gen7, it managed to get both of Raticate's 2 forms the untiered status, while all the other Alolan forms at least made the Pokemon they were given to better in some way, shape or form

Unown is so obvious that I can tell without watching the whole video. What I think can be done with Unown is that the more different types of Unown you have caught, the stronger all of your Unown get, like a collective. And by getting all of them, their stats are equal to a pseudolegendary and/or Hidden Power has 40pp and always hits for supereffective damage.

So here is the thing with trick room, you need a very specific speed range to actually be useful in it becomes if your speed is only mediocre like base 60 or something you can actually make your self get out slowed and still run into trouble. There are also many pokemon that are good in trick room for helpful to cover weakness of the trick room mons. Obviously it is not a band aid for bad pokemon but for a lot of slower bulkier mons it is legitimately a good option.

A similar argument can be made for what he said about Ledian: he stated that it is bad at a number of different sets, which honestly means it should be lower down than it was placed, since it doesn't matter if it's able to run multiple different sets if every last one of them is terrible

Unown is one of those pokémon that actually needs a complete rework. Each different forme you have gives a +10 Stat Boost in Sp.Atk, Sp.Def or Speed (+90 to each of those, if you happen to have all formes, with a BST of 606). Since Hidden Power got removed from the game, it should be brought back as Unown's signature move (as still the only move it can learn) and also be reworked to share typing with the Hidden Power of other Unowns (potential to deal Super-Effective damage against any pokémon, unless Fairy is the opponent's only weakeness since HP Fairy doesn't exist). Pokémon from previous generations lose access to Hidden Power when transfered.
