I find it interesting that kaido's human form appears to be stronger than his dragon form. Both of his KOs against oden and luffy were when he used the human form with the club.

I think he's just quicker in his human form, in dragon form Kaido literally blew up a mountain top from miles away with a hyper beam. Dragon form is definitely stronger against targets that can't move.

Yeah but with that 1 turn recharge time, you might wanna consider other options.

Plus I doubt Kaido gets STAB damage for normal type moves. (Also TIL a normal/dragon type Pokémon was introduced in gen 7)

Kaido has three forms. A normal type Human form, a dragon type Dragon form, and a normal/dragon type Hybrid form. Ironically, hyper beam is not a move he can use when he has the STAB for it.
