The Pokemon Race Version 6.0

11.

I don't have anything against it, but it's not a mon I'm gonna bother defending if it goes the other way.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

10.

I don't feel like defending Hoppip. It's weak and its level-up movepool is abysmal.

 

[CF1994]

9.

It is a challenge to use, ngl.

 

[ReKoil]

8.

As far as Grass/Flying types go I'd rather have a Tropius.

 

[CF1994]

7.

Hoppip can learn Splash, although Magikarp is the master of Splashes that cannot be bested.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

6.

Splash sucks, period.

 

[CF1994]

5.

We all know it's useless, but it's better to be a satirical memer than constant wallowing in pessimism.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

4.

It evolves at level 18.

 

[CF1994]

3.

It was going to have a longer tail and looked different in the Beta/Spaceworld Demo.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

2.

In the Rescue Team games, you can't encounter Hoppip before the postgame.

 

[CF1994]

1.

Even Sunkern and Sunflora are better Grass-types to use against Hikers and Swimmers across Johto.

Discarded.

The mid stage:

[FeraligatrMaster]

9.

Not a fan of Skiploom either. It tends to be annoying.

 

[CF1994]

8.

They are pretty fast and a bit of a nuisance to deal with.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

7.

They'll return in Gen 9.

 

[CF1994]

6.

We may not be fond of the line, but it does make life a little more bearable knowing that this is someone's favourite Pokémon and evolutionary line out there, and that said someone is very happy these flying plants are usable again in the main game since nearly a decade ago.

 

[ReKoil]

5.

Indifferent on Skiploom.

 

[CF1994]

4.

Same here.

 

[FeraligatrMaster]

3.

They would've been better with higher stats and a better movepool.

 

[ReKoil]

2.

Pretty much every weaker mon would be.

Perhaps a regional form could make them more appealing.
