Who was your favorite of the original three Legendary Bird Pokemon?

[Skyblade]

Articuno, decent Ice-types in this game were hard to come by.

Jynx, Dewgong, Cloyster, and Lapras. I think that was it.

It's hard to remember how good they were, because it's been so long since I played Gen I. I know Cloyster didn't get really good until later. I always really liked Lapras, but I don't remember how well it performed in Gen I.

Jynx only had about two Ice type abilities, one of which was a physical skill that didn't work so well with her weak physical. Her skill set is pretty awful to be honest. Her best attribute is being the earliest Ice type you can get.

The other three are Water-types first with Ice being their secondary property, though I would agree that all three are good, but it's largely for how versatile water types were in Gen-1. None of this is helped by Ice-Types being late arrivals in the game.

I wasn't meaning to describe them as "good" Ice Types, sorry. I just think those are actually all of the Ice Types in the game, period.

However, I will point out that in Gen I, all Ice moves were Special, even Ice Punch.

Looking back, though... Wow, her level up move set was terrible. And unlike a lot of Gen I Pokemon, she didn't get a huge variety of TMs to learn.
