Thread: Most Useless Pokemon

What is your personal worst and most useless Pokemon ever? What is a Pokemon that has no point and should not have been made a Pokemon?

Mine is Farfetch'd. There may have only been one of him in the RBY era, but he is weak and has no evolution.

Sunkern. One of Blissey's stats is higher than all its stats COMBINED.

How...dare..you..Farfetch'd can be worked properly, especially in gen II. Heck, in Gen IV I beat Thorton with a Farftech'd, Shedinja, and Azumarrill, so don't tell me those guys are useless. In my opinion, the most worthless has to be Zigzagoon. Except for Extremespeed through event, it's a lot worse than the other first-route Pokemon.

Farfetch'd is cool, I will admit, but for, say, competitive battling, I doubt he can take on like a Tyranitar or something.

^ Note that that's why I hate competitive battling. Everyone uses the same Pokemon and never try the ones that work well.
Anyway, I think that Qwilfish is totally useless in game unless you are ripping people off over the GTS.

This, this, this, this, and THIS. Screw your competitive crap, I'm going to a tourney with a Poochyena, Rotom, Typhlosion, Swellow, Quagsire and Espeon!

Don't be silly. Farfetch'd is useless. he has no base stat over 65, his movepool is all normal or flying attacks (with few exceptions), and a stupid only he can use item.


Chatot is also useless.

as for your attacks are the metagame, theres a reason it is set up the way it is. Certain Pokemon suck. Certain Pokemon don't. If you're going to use bad pokemon, don't complain when you lose.

Meh, I could care less about competitive battling. I'll use the ones that suck and make 'em useful. So yeah, I'll take Farfetch'd and Smeargle over Tyranitar and Blissey any day.

and that's your choice. You can make them useful for your team, but that doesn't mean they're not useless pokemon.


Oh, and Corsola. He's also useless.

Tailow, and sunflora

Luvidsc, it's fast, and that's it.

Magikarp. I've never even caught it. Or its evolution.

Swellow? HOUNDOOM???? How the hell are Swellow and Houndoom bad Pokemon? They're both excellent Pokemon with great stats, movepools and abilities that combine to form extremely good synergy.

Well, if we're going to call out every single Pokemon, then the obvious answers are Farfetch'd, Magikarp, Sunkerm, Beldum, Kakuna, Metapod, Silcoon and Cascoon.

Now, if we're only talking about fully evolved Pokemon, then the answer becomes:

Luvdisc
Farfetch'd
Beautifly
Butterfree
Beedrill
Dustox
Lumineon
Seaking

And those are just the ones that come to mind off the top of my head. There's more out there, I'm sure.
