The 90's; gotta love it!

[Commodore Axilon]

I can name a whole bunch of pokémon I thought were stupid. And yes, some of them are from Red and Blue. It's all down to opinion I guess.

[DarkZelda]

Your right on that one. Just an opinion thing. But I do have to say, nothing beats the classic Pok'emon. It just seems to me that by ruby/saphire time, the pokemon and the names started getting desprate; but Rayquaza is teh bomb. Hopefully Diamond/Pearl will be better.

[Commodore Axilon]

Have a look for yourself.

[DW]

Dude, I can't pronunce half of those..Cherrim?Cherinbo? What, we have cherry-based pokemon now?

[Commodore Axilon]

Note that most of them still have their Japanese names.

[DW]

great, so in american it will be like Pitman and stuff I bet.

Oh man, Pokemon. When I was in the sixth grade I knew them all like the back of my hand, and then the new ones came out and I gave up.
They sure are cute, though. But does anybody in the land o' Pokemon actually go...Pokemon hunting? Like, to eat them? >:3

[Commodore Axilon]

Wasn't there a Tauros ranch in the anime? And I'm sure I saw a Magikarp on a plate somewhere too.

[MasterKeyX]

Magikarp was a weakiling, remember ? But when he transformed into to Gyrados, he was one of the most powerful pokemon around!

And, those fourth generation pokemon look ridiculous. Pokemon is just pathetic now.

[Gamefreak]

Yes, they've lost their creative touch.

[Commodore Axilon]

How creative were the original pokémon? Most of them were just lifted from animals or fantastical creatures.

[darkphantomime]

Blah, at least they weren't so bloody ugly as they are now. Probably the only pokemon that were functional in the third generation were Medichan and that psychic/steel combo that I can't remember the name of. Those were also my two faves of that generation. Sadly, not so much for the rest of the crap out there...

As for G/S/C, they extended a fair bit what originally came for RBY. The game was FUN, and had quite a bit of variety in terms of tactics of pokemon battles, what with held items and the increase of the number of moves. Espeon and Umbreon were REALLY original in their own time, as was HOUNDOOM! I really liked houndoom...

Now someone here, make a list of your opinion of the crappiest pokemon of all the generations, hmm?

[Commodore Axilon]

Crappiest as in the least useful, or as in the stupidest?

[darkphantomime]

Ugliest/stupidest/least useful.

[Gamefreak]

I can't think of ugliest, but I can think of my favorites from each generation.

Red/Blue/Yellow:

Charizard
Scyther
Electabuzz
Magmar

Gold/Silver/Crystal

Umbreon
Espeon
Skarmory
Tyranitar

Ruby/Saphire/Emerald

Metagross
Aggron
Flygon
