Best Pokémon Starting pitchers in All 22 Pokémon Baseball

Kyogre is the best starting pitcher in the baseball game's Team Score, adding 70.1 points over a 50-rated player; without Legendaries it's Flutter Mane (64.4). The starting pitcher is where the biggest single rating in the game lives: control. Velocity and stamina add nothing to the Team Score.
