Personal opinion - worst pokemon ever?

I'm not to fond of Unown. It's one of the most useless Pokemon ever. It's one move Hidden Power is not that useful. I used to think these things were these super strong legendaries but no, they're useless.
 
I hate Samurott and Sceptile. I thought the beginnings of each evolutionary line looked awesome! Grovyle would have made a fantastic grass/flying type by looks alone, but then evolved into a standing creature with a heavy tail. Similar with Dewott, I thought it would make an awesome water/fighting pokemon, but then evolved into a four legged, mono-type pokemon. So lame. Much disappoint.
 
I feel mean in saying I feel Dunsparce is very much unloved as a Pokemon. It has no evolutions, it's design is rather peculiar, and its typing/movepool does not give it many options. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's the worst Pokemon. I feel that trait goes to the baby Pokemon (Smoochum, Magby, Elekid, Pichu, Cleffa, and so on). My reasoning is that they provide no more to the game other than a few Pokedex entries. Granted, some of them are incredibly adorable, and I really don't consider them bad Pokemon. But, as someone with 16 years of Pokemon experience under my belt, these I feel were the weakest additions to the overall game. They have no potential on their own other than that they evolve into other Pokemon (Outside of Little Cup battles, I never see anyone use these Pokemon), whereas Dunsparce has the *potential* to eventually gain an evolution in an upcoming generation, or some new quality making it useful.
