Yanmegain Pokémon Polished Crystal

bugdragon

Pokédex Entry

Ogre Darner Pokémon

Its jaw power is incredible. It is adept at biting apart foes while flying by at high speed. Yanmega is an evolution to Yanma, which is best found via swarms. It already has a high Speed stat and Speed Boost just makes it faster every time a turn ends. Tinted Lens makes it so that it has nothing that it can't hit. Bug/Dragon is a unique typeset!
