I have a question about my Flygon. I’ve had her for years, I captured her in the wild as a Vibrava and she evolved four years ago, but there’s something bothering me: she’s tiny. Normal Flygon are about 6’07” but mine doesn’t even hit 6′. She was this tiny upon completing evolution so I figured she just needed some time to grow, but she hasn’t. I’m feeding her fresh meats and kibbles every day, but she’s still tiny. She’s also getting plenty of exercise. Is something wrong with her?

Not really, anonymous. Just as humans come in a wide variety of different heights, so too do pokémon. The average you might see listed in the pokédex is merely an average: the average height of a pokémon species, as determined from data collected through a large sample. In truth, only a handful of flygon are actually 6′07″; they are otherwise a wide variety of different heights, from 4′00″ all the way up to 8′00″. There’s only something wrong if your flygon is excessively small or large, and that’s only because such heights can be linked to actual medical problems that your local Nurse Joy would have diagnosed by now.

In short, anonymous, your flygon may be perfectly fine—just a bit on the shorter side than most.
