  • Exactly what it says on the tin, Is there any Pokemon EXCLUDING ledgendaries that is particularly popular with a lot of players but has never appeared in your party even once?
    Whether it be by chance or just the fact that you don't like it, I'd like to hear why that Pokemon has never appeared in your party.

    For me it's Jolteon, Blissey, Bronzong, Houndoom & Weezing. I don't dislike any of these Pokemon, Infact I like them all, but when I plan out my party I always forget about them until far into the games then I just don't bother. I'm sure there are a few I'm missing but I'd like to hear your replies.

  • xDD believe it or not I never had a pikachu in my party. It's sad I know.

    Wow that's unbelievable, although the only time I've ever actually had Pikachu in my party was during Pokemon Yellow and one time when I was pretending to be Ash haha. Now THATS sad xD

    Um... Define "Popular," please.

    If you mean Popular as in the current OU metagame, then Rotom (Any form) is one.
    Can't think of others right now...

  • Only time I used Pikachu was in Yellow, and the few times I wanted a Raichu. But I normally stick Raichu with TMs and evolve the Pikachu as soon as possible. But I really do hate Pikachu. That's my main reason. -.-

  • Too many to count. I know I've never used the Grass starter from DPP or Meganium. I've never had a Houndoom (but I wanted one) and various other mons.

  • Salamence, Garchomp, Houndoom, Weavile, Blissey, Alakazam,, Arcanine, Gengar...

    I choose my teams based on what Pokemon appeal to me, not what's strongest or most popular. Many of the above named Pokemon are quite ugly IMO and I can't imagine ever using them.

    I only used my arch-nemesis Pikachu once, in Pokemon Yellow. And in true "imitate Ash" form, I deliberately lost to Brock, Sabrina, and Blaine the first time :P

  • Dratini, and as many have said Pikachu. I've only used Pikachu twice. The first time was on Yellow, the second was for 5 minutes on Gold before I realized it was pretty weak. Here's my advice:

    If you ever go for a Electric Pokemon, go for Magnemite/Magneton!! They have excellent defense due to their Steel type combo.

    I don't like to use Eeveelutions, and if I do use one, I use Espeon. Wait. OH MY GOD!!

    SUPER EPIPHANY!!!

    I just realized why they call it Espeon! Duh! It's because of E.S.P.! Why haven't I thought of that before?

    Never Salamence or Garchomp? That's rare to hear :O most of the people that do wi-fi battling have wet dreams about these two lol can't say I personally find them attractive to use (mainly just 'cause I only play in-game and I only use my favourites) but I've at least given them a go to see what all the fuss was about xD

    An never Alakazam or Gengar? That's another rare one right there lol
    I personally like these two although I rarely have them in my party.

    Ahh... So im not the only one who went round Imitating Ash xD Thank god! haha
