I'd have to agree with some of you about Unown. I mean, I love them design wise. I really wish they were better in battle though, and could learn more attacks. It's a shame really :/

I think no pokemon is bad but still........

Dunsparce is pretty boring, it's move set is boring.. Also, I have an issue with it. I mean
it lives under ground or in caves, burrows hole : I mean it's so like a ground pokemon
but still it's NORMAL type!!!! I mean WTF!!!!!

I also think Ditto is pretty useless in battle. I tried to raise it in main games but it's seriously hard to battle with it........It's just good for breeding!!

This is quite an obvious and popular answer, I assume, to the question 'worst Pokémon'.


Magikarp is an extremely pointless Pokémon with no meaning whatsoever. It is impossible to train it regularly until it reaches Level 15 and even when that has happened, it is still weak. I personally think that there should be no pre-evolution of Gyarados or Magikarp receives some attacking moves at earlier levels or Splash is given a meaning.
Though it may amaze you, I raised magikarp once while I was playing Leafgreen. I raised it to 60 lvl. Though it was very hard to raise, but I did it and am proud of it. Yes, it is pretty useless but
I must tell you that it is not the weakest pokemon, about 7 pokemon are weaker to it in stats.
Now that it can also learn Bounce! But the fact is fact: It's pretty hard to raise and it ain't much helpful!!!

While i still stand by my answer as luvdisc being the worst pokemon of all time i am going to give a honorable mention to Regigigas,while it may be a legendary that doesn't excuse it. It's ability of slow start means for the first 5 turns it's attack and speed are cut in half(it's base attack stat is 160 meaning it's just 80 for the first 5 turns, and it's base speed is 100 meaning it's just 50 for the first 5 turns) It's base stat of 670 is shared with two other legendarys in Kyogre and Groundon and also one other legendary Slaking....none of this have the slow start ability meaning the other 3 are much better choices.

I'm really against any Pokemon that's become a meme, examples like Mudkip, Magikarp and Seaking. It just brings unneeded attraction to me, and the jokes are overused beyond belief to me.

My top choice for "worst" pokemon is shuckle.

I don't know. I find it a terrible waste. It doesn't evolve. Its speed is junk (and all other attacking stats too, to be precise). Yes it has extremely high defences but I find it a terrible waste for such a Pokemon.

Honestly, I don't find any Pokemon to be bad. Magikarp may be useless but it evolves into a beast. Even though Shuckle has a terrible stat distribution I can see it being useful in wireless battles.

All Pokemon are pretty interesting, but I hate Rhyperior. I've bashed it several times in other threads, just not a fan of it. Rhydon is awesome, and I use it every time I play a game that came before the introduction of Rhyperior. After fourth generation, I never touched the line again. :[

I think the most worthless regular Pokémon is Unown.

Most worthless legendary? Shaymin. No clue what purpose that thing serves.

Though I don't think Farfetch'd is a bad pokemon as it can learn many moves, but it
looks awefully ridiculous....I mean Game Freak brought Donald Duck into pokemon using
Farfetch'd!! :D

This like x 1000

While I do like Mudkip, most pokemon who make their way through 4chan come out of it as totally overused, unnecessary, and unfunny. And it completely sours my view on them. Other than that, I don't particularly care for Pokemon based on monkeys or pigs. So like Chimchar, Aipom, Tegpig.. I'm just not a big fan. :<

In my opinion one of the worst Pokemon has to be the Gen 6 Pokemon Klefki. In a world of cool animals that can fly, breath fire/water we get...keys!? I mean not even it;s pokedex entry can save it: 'These key collectors threaten any attackers by fiercely jingling their keys at them.' or 'It never lets go of a key that it likes, so people give it the keys to vaults and safes as a way to prevent crime.' On no! It's going to steal one of your keys!

Another one that I think should be mentioned is the Gen. 2 Pokemon Sunkern. First it's ugly. Not to mention that it has the lowest stats in the game. Again, it's pokedex entry reads 'It is very weak. Its only means of defense is to shake its leaves desperately at its attacker.' So, again in a world full of monsters that can breath fire/water, fly/swim at great speeds and have great strength. This Pokemon...shakes it's leaves at you? It's evolved form can't save it either. Sunflora is equally bad. I mean it's pokedex entry reads 'It converts sunlight into energy. In the darkness after sunset, it closes its petals and becomes still.' So it can do stuff normal plants can do!? CONGRATS!

Klefki, Sunkern and Sunflora...making boring things boring pokemon.

(Sorry for the HUGE picture...)

As much as I love the Gen 6 mons, Scatterbug is all kinds of wrong to me. I can't get myself to like this Pokemon at all. I do like his evolutions, but this guy is just...so ugly. He has to be the ugliest bug to date. And what makes it worse is that huge buck tooth. He's a bug, not a rodent! It's hard for me to understand how something as beautiful as Vivillon evolves from this hideous excuse for a larvae. -_-

Farfetch'd was awesome in gen 1. It leveled up really quickly, could set up with Agility and SD, and then Slash it's way to victory. Keeping in mind that Slash was a 95% chance to crit back then, and it was pretty busted. It was the best flying type you could get for an in game team. It's been a bit outclassed since then obviously, but I'll always have a place in my heart for Dux.

In Gen 1 critical hits ignored any bossts in Attack/Defense/Special. So the damage you did with a critical hit was just: base attack/special * 2
In other words: Farfetch'd is bad and if you want to use critical hits in Gen 1 you are better off using Charizard/Scythor/Dugtrio/Sandslash and all the other ones I forgot who have high speed and access to Slash, but not Farfetch'd.

My least favorite poke would have to be wormadam. I HATE wormadam. It was kinda cool in gen IV because we were just getting used to formes, but of all the formed pokes, its gimmick is just terrible. It's bad in game, bad competitively, ugly and just overall a bad design IMO.

My least favorite legendaries are the uxie, mesprit, azelf trio. Azelf is pretty cool, but the three pixie things don't really have a cool backstory, good stats (barring azelf), or inventive designs. Their design is good don't get me wrong, but having three of them EXACTLY THE SAME just makes it seem like just three clone pokemon.

I can convince myself that most pokémon are cool or cute or useful in one way or another. But some I just can't get over are these.



I think there's something fundamentally wrong with each of these, either in design or concept, and I don't think I could choose one single pokémon I consider to be the very worst... Though Binacle's swaying gets on my nerves enough to perhaps make it the winner.

I'd have to say Sunkern due to its base stats if anything, I was tempted to say Magikarp but I did remember seeing a video on Youtube where a user named PimpNite swept a team using a Magikarp before.
Sweeping a team with a magikarp? Has PimpNite been on some traning 'roids?
