    What pokemon do you think is the most unpopular (meaning, you rarely see it, you rarely talk about it, etc.) and why? :3

    Mine is Finneon/Lumineon because I really don't know this thing until I saw it in a battle.

    Girafarig..

    Farfetch'd and Phione are probably the most unpopular pokes as well as kricketune / kricketot. I've never seen them in battle, not even in NEU lol.

    Chimecho is pretty used in NEU... Considering «pretty used» in a dead tier, that's still not as unpopular as most...

    Sudowoodo would probably be my choice in every tier it has ever been allowed in it has always been outclassed by something not to mention it's fairly hard to get in game and really fails to dignify itself in anyway although the Gen4-5? addition of Wood Hammer helps.

    There was a period of time when I didn't even know Barboach existed, let alone what it was. Same with Whiscash, really.

    Also, if categorizing "Unpopular" in terms of "Hated", man Chingling sucked. I don't even remember why I put effort into that thing.

    Pretty sure most people didn't even remember Stantler was a thing until they read this.

    I dunno, Wurmple is pretty boss ingame. Anything that can learn Poison Sting at lower than level 10 is awesome early on, actually.

    I remember when I started competitive Pokemon, my favorite in game 'mons were pretty shitty. (Because who didn't use Luxray when they played DP?)
    Being a Gen III fan, I didn't know what Chimeco and Banette were. I didn't complete the Pokedex on my first run of Emerald, because I didn't know what I was missing (Chimeco).

    Also, Trubbish is overlooked and incredibly adorable, no sarcasm it really is cute.

    EDIT: See, I even spelled Chimecho wrong.

    When's the last time anyone used a Seel, Seadra or Krabby a lot of Gen 1 water types have really fallen out of sight.

    I used that in Soul Silver. Best Pokémon
    Same with Girafarig
    Seel was used against sand in LC sometimes and Krabby was OK in HGSS LC

    I'd have to say Heatmor. I've seen it like twice ever and nobody ever speaks of it.

    I think quite a few people do tbh. Think Christmas

    For those of you who don't remember, the purple glob I posted is Swalot. Introduced in Gen 3.

    If you know what this is, congratulations:

    Asdf, I don't. I feel stupid now. The most worthless pokemon ever must be Feebas. It took me hours to catch one, and even then, it took you a lot of effort to make it evolve into the Marvelous (yes I pun) Milotic. At least that poke was great.

    Burmy. It's unoriginal, unusuable and just shit. As is Wormadam. Mothim's OK now, since it got Quiver Dance and Tinted Lens.

    I love to use Heatmor in NU! Actually, he's a very useful pokemon.. I switch to him and can kill off like half of a team.
