Pikachu.

It may be the Mascot, but why does it have to be weak in the games, and as strong as a legendary in the anime?
That is because it's the anime, where everything is not what it's seems.

Mew.

People love it, but it leaves a lot to be desired in Statistics. On the flip side, it has the most diverse move-pool of all Pokémon. I still believe that it is quite over-rated, and should be thought of with lower standards.
What? Mew's cuteness cover it's cons.

Pikachu is not over-rated! -frowns-

Although it is all personal opinion, and that's fine, but Pikachu represents what Pokemon initially are. They're friends. To me, I'd rather see Pokemon like that then super strong haxor ones with l33t fighting skills.
Pikachu is supremely over rated. And I for disagree with your statement that they're friends. I'd definitely be a trainer closer to Paul's attitude and prefer his method. He was such a breath of fresh air.

As to other Pokemon being 'over rated' Lucario is at least cooler looking and can 'talk'. He doesn't have that annoying 'pika pika' thing going on constantly to try and talk to you.

I personally think Eevee and all eeveelutions are overrated ESPECIALLY Jolteon. I know it's got nice stats and flexible moveset but it's overused, I swear, it's like almost every team needs a Jolteon |:

Let's take it easy on Jolteon. Just because it's probably the most useful of Eevee's evolutions doesn't mean it's not overrated.

Flareon is cool, but you have the option of a fire-starter anyway. And even so, Growlithe/Arcanine Rapidash and Ninetales are just as good.

Same with Vaporeon. You've already got the option of Squirtle as a starter. You get to buy a Magikarp early in the game, leave it at the daycare center and come back for a gyrados after you've probably gotten the Good Rod and had some luck getting water-types leveled up by then.

But since Eevee doesn't have a grass-type evolution, Jolteon is probably the most logical choice. Plus, Raichu is probably the only other good alternative. Electrode and Magneton don't really do much for me.

Um, Pikachu isn't overrated. Overrated means that it's too popular with the fans. Pikachu is simply overmerchandised.

But when it comes to being overrated, I think Lucario is tops. I never got its appeal. But then again, I never watched its movie, but that's because I dislike the anime. Eevee and its evolutions come in a close second. They'd probably eclipse Lucario's popularity if it was added up!

Pikachu is over rated, whether people like it or not he is. He is one of the main characters and of course will be "over rated" over merchandising Pikachu also makes it seem more over rated then it is because a lot of others don't get sold as much as they should. It's to be expected though, I don't really mind Pikachu as he was one of the origionals.

Pikachu. He got old, quickly. Being the mascot of Pokemon is okay, but isn't it time for a little change? And plus, it is a very weak Pokemon (but Pichu and Raichu are cute).

I think the three original starters are overrated as well. But that's just me.

You warm mine, I warm yours. :)

Lucario.

I know this pokemon is supposed to be strong and all but I don't see what is so great with this pokemon. Is Lucario even legendary? I keep wondering if he is or if he is not.
Same here. Is he 3rd or 4th gen?

I vote for Lucario. Just go to any art site. And I pick Lopunny as well for obvious reasons.

Ho-Oh lol. Lay out Stealth Rock, and after two Switch-Ins its dead, or attack with a (Choice Scarfed-) Pokemon who knows Stone Edge. Tyranitar has a very painfull Close Combat-weakness but at least it can boost itself and probably take down the foe faster than, than he could do.

Pikachu.

It's one of the weakest Electric Pokemon that's not a baby Pokemon. It's only cute.....

And why does Lucario have so many votes? I think it's a pretty strong Pokemon.

Pikachu "I Choose You", oh it's the weakest little turd in the Poke-Universe and yet Ash thinks it can beat a Groudon which it can't use Electric attacks against because it's a Ground type Pokemon and yet it still hits.

Same with Jigglypuff, Piplup, Glameow, Gengar, etc.

Maybe so, but that's not the point. The point is that so many people fanboy over it that it's practically reached the state of a demi-god when in actuality it's not all that special.
