Overhyped gym attackers, blissey

It never occured to me that I'd write this article, but since stupidity is limitless I'll do so anyway.

The main culprit is Gamepress' updated gym attackers tier list.

The short version:

• Just pretend you never read the idiocy

With a base attack stat of 129 blissey should never, ever, find itself in the lineup for attacking a gym.

To add insult to injury blissey candy is hard to collect, which means that if you have access to a stellar blissey you're already placing it in a gym.

That leaves you with level 30 or lower blisseys, with poor IV, to commence attacks with, something that aggravates an already poor situation.

Blissey makes snorlax look like a quality attacker and we've already concluded that snorlax is awful at attacking a gym.

For every possible target in a gym it's not only easy to find a better attacker, but you already have one, or else you're not playing high level pokemon go in the first place.

Basically anything you catch and/or evolve in the level 25 - 30 range is a better attacker even if picked at random. This in turn translates into the suicide squad being preferable for two reasons:

• They attack faster than a blissey
• They are more cost efficient in terms of potions and revives, because you're discarding them after the job is done
