While adorable, this Pokemon (for a while at least) had the lowest base stats out of any Pokemon. This list has tried to avoid throwing shade at Pokemon that aren't at the end of their evolutionary line, but Azurill is one of those 'special exceptions'. But, in general, these are just two more Pokemon that have been thrown to the wayside by Nintendo and desperately something like a Regional Form or new Evolution in a future game.Īh, here's the weakest of all the baby Pokemon, Azurill. Both Pokemon have Levitate and some strikingly powerful moves available to them such as Acrobatics or Baton Pass, so it's not all bad. Their stats aren't horrible but they're not good enough to be considered 'great', their move pool can only be described as odd, and they're not even great as a pair in Duo Battles. However, as Pokemon that do well in battle, they're pretty forgettable. This is especially when they're compared to some other duos that were designed as a pair like Plusle/Minun, Volbeat/Illumise, and Passimian/Oranguru. And, as far as this paired-Pokemon concept goes, Lunatone and Solrock are very well-designed (this is including their Shiny color palettes as well). Lunatone and Solrock, as a duo, are another example of two Pokemon designed to be a 'pair' with one representing the sun and the other representing the moon. This is one of those Pokemon that has desperately needed an evolution for generations now but has never got one while Pokemon with evolutions that seemed like good stopping points, such as Ursaring, are getting more evolutions instead. But, it's not like Sudowoodo has many 'amazing' Grass-type moves to use and pure Grass types also have a lot of type disadvantages as well. Sure, using a Grass Tera Orb to make a Terrastallized Sudowoodo can get rid of its normal weaknesses. Even outside of its large amount of type disadvantages, Sudowoodo is relatively weak in just about every other department as well.Īll of its abilities are lackluster, its stat total is a mediocre 410, and there aren't really any 'builds' that it excels in over other Pokemon. Not only that, but it's also weak to the same Grass-type Pokemon it's pretending to be a part of, as well as Fighting, Ground, and Steel Pokemon. While Sudowoodo is more of a rock than a plant, it likes to disguise itself as a tree, the only problem is that it's absurdly weak to Water-type damage. Sudowoodo is one of those Pokemon that seems designed as a 'trickster' type who is 'intended' to be stronger than what they're masquerading as but is somehow actually worse. So, let's take a look at some of the most premiere examples across all the generations. Sadly, while that might have been the original intention of the Pokemon Company, it's not reality, and a lot of those Pokemon are just straight-up not worth using. 1000 might not seem like the 'biggest' number in the grand scheme of things, but if players think about how each and every design from those 1000 Pokemon is meant to be a design that people resonate with and want to use on their team, the number suddenly seems a lot more imposing. Updated July 5th, 2023, by Jacob Buchalter: Taking Pokemon Scarlet and Violet ( and its upcoming DLC) into account, there are now over 1000 Pokemon out there across the various regions of their fantastical world. The Pokemon that made this list did so due to horrible designs (at least compared to some of the best), mediocre stats, their inability to cause real damage, or their lack of utility even in specific competitive builds. Typically these Pokémon spend their entire lives in the storage system, are dropped off at Day Care, or on rare occasions are used on the team for one very specific purpose. And while that doesn't mean that players handle them the same way they handle creatures in a game like Palworld, it does mean these Pokemon are ignored for the most part. While most Pokemon have a use, both in competitive or regular play, there are sadly still some that just aren’t worth the time and resources it would take to make them somewhat worthwhile.
