I never really liked Poochyena. Well, I guess I don't dislike him, but he always slips my mind.
Pssh, you want to know what it's like to love a forgotten Pokemon? Try being a Masquerain fan. :P
 
What's a Masquerain? :P

What's worse is having never owned one....damn Sapphire-only pokémon....

Na, Poochyena is awesome, as is Mightyena.

Poochyena's Sugimori art is better....the lighting looks slightly off on Mightyena...
 
^^^^^ wow that mightyena picture looks awesome!!!.... i mite have to train one now...
 
People forget it because of the Rattata Syndrome. It's an early-game pokemon that's found nearly everywhere and doesn't evolve to be particularly powerful. Technically, Zigzagoon is the more radical example from Hoenn, but Poochyena also qualifies. :/
 
When I saw Poochyena during my first run of the third generation I thought it was a wonderful addition to the bird and normal type Pokemon duo* that you usually first encounter. After catching one and then evolving it into a Mightyena I found it to be a rather weak Pokemon. When compared to Zigzagoon a Pokemon that can be found as early as Poochyena you can see where the 'forgetting' of Poochyena begins.

Although they have the same base stat total Linoone has the upper hand. Mightyena might have the attack, but Linoone has the speed and an attack that it can get by with. Not to mention Zigzagoon is a much more useful HM slave then Poochyena.

Poochyena is mostly to my knowledge based off of a hyena and hyenas are actually more related to felines then canines. Although to be more correct they are neither canines or felines. They are part of their own distinct family. FuN fAcT~

Couldn't you just note this in the 'What's your favourite Pokmon' thread? I don't see this creating much discussion, sorry.
