    What do some of you guys think? For me, it's....

    Most useless/unnessesary Pokemon?


    I just don't understand this thing. If it doesn't evolve into Manaphy, which it looks just like by the way, and I don't think it's all that strong, then.....What the heck is it for?!
    It has a tiny part in Mystery Dungeon Time/Darkness and that's it.



    Some of the evolutions in Gen. 4 seem unnessesary too. Did we really need Lickitung, Tangela, Togetic...and others I'm too lazy to think of at the moment to evolve?

    you're crazy right? how bout u take manaphy and phione and have a tag battle. you might see why it aint pointless. in my opinion there really is no certain most pointless pokemon because there are strategies and special abilities for each. although lickilicki is kinda stupid

    Magikarp WOULD be on the list if it didn't have such a strong evolution. But maybe Dunsparce is the most useless. That Pokemon was virtually on the border of being erased from my memory, but now I have been reminded. That wasn't very nice >:(.

    Unown. They really have no reason to exist other than being cool movie materials. Other than that they are very useless.

    • Pre-evolutions are only necassary for battles against actual people.

    I believe that Luvdisc is useless. Well for me at least. It's not good at all for anything and I just keep it in a box by itself.

    I take it you never played the second generation games then. Cutting things (wood for charcoal in the games' case) is Farfetch'ds' occupational use.

    No, I have played second gen.

    I guess I'm looking at Farfetch'ds' usefulness more from a competitive standpoint than an in-game standpoint. Honestly, of the hundreds and hundreds of shoddy battles I've done I have never seen a Farfetch'd... and I think I know why: a mediocre move pool, terrible stat distribution, weakness to Stealth Rock, bland Normal/Flying typing, etc.

    However, as I said, I suppose Farfetch'd could be of some use in-game (G/S/C) for capturing with False Swipe and, erm, for NPC's cutting wood/charcoal. But viewing the Pokemon gen. currently, in my opinion, Farfetch'd is useless.

    Also, the Unowns are a form of writing — a language, without language where would we be?

    Again, from how I'm looking at things (from a current competitive standpoint rather than in-game), they're useless. Just my opinion.

    Whiscash line, Unown, Wingull, Pelipper, Delibird, Plusle, Minun... I could go on all day. There's just too many crap.

    • Hmm.. I'd say Bidoof, Rotom, Phione, and the lake trio legendaries. I mean, the trios aren't useless, I just don't like them personally (XD Azelf + Explosion). Phione and Rotom because I don't know why they were deemed legendary in the first place (don't get me wrong; Phione is one of my faves). Bidoof for some actual uselessness.

    • Unown. They're basically just there to collect all of them, and you definitely can't use them for battle. I never even try to catch them anymore. They serve absolutely no purpose =P
