GSC/HGSS Feraligatr is one of the most famously broken starters for in-game of all time. You get Surf before the fourth gym (yes it runs off special attack, it's still very strong) and it evolves at level 30. No wonder they never did that again.

Still one of my favorite starters. Its even alright in the newer games thanks to Sheer Force, sort of a discount Gyarados.

yeah it is like the only one of the GSC starters that has gotten meaningful buffs for competitive. They tried with Typhlosion but that didn't save it for terribly long.

its movepool is huge and has quite a bit of good stuff Gyarados does not have, like Swords Dance for much faster Attack boosting (it hits a lot harder at +2 than Gyara does after a DD) and Aqua Jet for priority along with Sheer Force making stuff like Liquidation/Waterfall way stronger. It isn't really an OU pick in most gens but it is always a good pick whatever low tier its in.
