ITT: Pokemon who deserved better.
>>26802090
I like Duskull, but I think its evolutions are all shit.
>>26802090
Dusknoir is fucking based man
>>26802205
too bad dusclops is better competitively
:'(
>>26802217
And designed better
>>26802090
I love Duskull because it looks like it's straight out of the Earth Temple from Wind Waker.
>>26802247
>Wind waker
My nigga. Best Zelda. Earth temple was a great dungeon, as well.

Poor Farfetch'd. No love since...well, ever. No amount of new moves is going to make up for those stats.
>>26802217
Lel, it actually isnt, both are PU shit, but Dusknoir is rated way higher than Dusclops in the viability rankings
>>26802289
Fortunately it's mostly unlikable. Literally my moms angry vegetable-wielding duck.
>>26802309
definitely needs a mega/evo
The only right answer.
>>26802111
Chesnaught is fine. Just needs a mega to be top tier
>>26802127
Vanilluxe hits fucking hard though. Its just inferior to other ice types.
>>26802229
Is this bait?
>>26802309
I feel ya man.
>>26802229
>implying
Hydreigon's pre evos are irrelevant.
More than anything else.
>>26802229
The whole line is garbage.
>>26802090
>>26802766
honestly in hindsight this would be like my third favorite starter set were it not for the shitty final evos
>>26802766
Snivy only got bigger and became more snake-like, nothing exactly wrong with that. Tepig stood up. Its a Fire starter, no surprise there. Problem is its typing. Oshawott was doomed from the start.
There are worse examples, /vp/ just loves to overreact over these.
>>26802229
All he needed was 2 more stats in speed, it's so sad
>>26802766
Snivy's fine. Agreed with Tepig. Oshawott? Blame Shitfreak for not giving Samurott Shell Smash. Literally designed for this move.
>>26802815
Serperior is objectively the worst-designed Grass type in the game. Tepig became the third and worst in a line of Fire/Fighting Pokemon, going from a cute pig with the promise of a cool boar to a badly designed sumo wrestler.
They are the worst starter trio in the series and will likely never be replaced as such because they fail to deliver on every level. Bad gameplay, bad designs, bad flavor, everything about them is bad. And I say that as someone who thinks gen 5 was great.

Eyes are larger than its skull. Design is objectively flawed.
Your move.
>>26802892
Just wait for Arbok to get a mega when the re-re-release of RBY happen
>>26802909
Why do its eyes have to be spherical?
>>26802909
They just gave up when designing that gen's pokedex, didn't they?
>>26802892
Arbok got a big buff in gens 5 and 6. It's now a decent tank

>promise of a cool boar to a badly designed sumo wrestler
nobody promised you such thing. Don't project your expectations onto deciding whether something is bad or not
