The two equivalents introduced in gen 2, skarmory being the physical tank and mantine, the special beast

Better Design
Who Would Win
Who Would You Pick
Waffles or Pancakes

EDIT: there is multiple choice if any of you were wondering
 
PANCAKES!!!!! Skarmory for sure. They both have the same stats just distributed differently, but skarmory has waaay better typing.
 
I've never even had a mantine so...Skarmory.
But I chose all 4 choices anyways :3

It isn't even about the typing. Mantine just doesn't have the stats or the movepool to make full use of it, like Gyarados does. Skarmory's excellent distribution which goes extremely well with its typing and movepool is the very reason why Skarmory is just that much superior.

Not to mention I prefer it aesthetically, too.

YES ANOTHER POINT FOR PANCAKES lol
 
Skarmory for this one. It's just too awesome not to pick. Second favorite Steel type of mine (right behind Scizor and above Metagross) vs forgettable at best manta ray? Not even a serious question.

Mantine.
Who Would Win?
Skarmory.
Who Would You Pick?
Skarmory.
 
I like both of their designs, but Mantine has actually been useful to me, whereas I've never actually put Skarmory on a team. Mantine is under-supported here, anyway.
 
Poor Mantine, he's losing by so much.
Anyway, I have always wanted to have a Mantine but I was always too lazy too catch one. So, Mantine it is!
