One of the most irksome of feelings is going around in circles, where it seems that the things that one does seem to loop back on themselves without resolution. I've had to go through that feeling at some points in time - perhaps even today. For some Pokémon, though, going around in circles (literally) may just be the thing that brings out the best in them. I thought I'd round up how that may be so while such a feeling applies to me.
Falinks often has its individual units go in a straight line when they move or attack, but in the latter case - if Pokémon Unite has anything to say - the most powerful one occurs when the units move about a target in a circular fashion like (being about to be) ganging up on it. It's called the "Dust Devil Formation", and it could be a doozy for some Pokémon trying to counter it, lest they be sucked into its "vortex" for a ride.
Then, there is Skitty with its long tail. Such an appendage has the propensity to cause the Pokémon to chase after it in a circular fashion, tiring it out and making it fall asleep... much like the lore of a really big dog (not quite related to Pokémon) that does the same with its long tail, albeit not at a very high speed. Still, if it does happen at such a high speed, it may just be the prelude for it to learn a new move, perhaps of the contest type.
As well, there is Dragonite and a few other Dragon-type or dragon-like Pokémon. They might just be capable of the Dragon Dance move, one that is often depicted by its initiators circling about, creating a vortex with great attacking power. That's one for the species of concern to size up, while for those on the receiving end, it might become a warning to get one's act together before dragon(s) strike at full force.
So, at least for some Pokémon, going around in circles may be a beneficial thing, which as suggested by the words of a certain song may even let them fly high like birds. For people, though - particularly those on the receiving end, like me - it may still be considered a source of frustration. That may be a prompt to resolve the situation in an out-of-the-box manner, and maybe one or more of the Pokémon above could be insightful.
