Everyone makes fun of Grimer and Trubbish for being silly, but these nine Pokémon are truly the worst Pokémon ever created.

We all have been fooled by that NPC in the Pokémon Center: $500 for a Pokémon? Sure, that sounds like it saves you a bit of time, so why not?

Then, you brought Magikarp out to battle, only to realize it was perhaps one of the worst Pokémon out there. It can’t even attack? Why would someone even play with a Pokémon like this? Although it may seem like the worst Pokémon, I promise you that there are plenty worse Pokémon out there. Here are the nine most horrible Pokémon that serve no purpose in the series and never should have been included.

1. Feebas

Pretty much a Magikarp clone, Feebas is only worse because of how damn hard it is to find. In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, it can only be found on six randomly generated tiles on Route 119, and even if you do happen to find one of the correct tiles out of the 436 water blocks, it only has an encounter rate of 50%, which is just cruel. It can easily take hours, or even days, just to find one Feebas. If you miss it or kill it, good luck, because you’ll be back on the grind to find this useless Pokémon!

2. Magikarp

The aforementioned Magikarp is easily one of the worst Pokémon to ever exist. You always encounter them when you least want to see one, and yet they yield you little experience for defeating them. Not only that, but sometimes trainers will have multiple Magikarps. There are some trainers that are even crazy enough to build a whole team of Magikarps well over the level 20 threshold. Why not just evolve the thing into a Gyarados already? What a waste of time.

3. Sunkern

Sunkern is a truly pathetic Pokémon. It looks silly and has literally no competitive use. It’s slow and has incredibly low base stats. Why ever use a Sunkern? I’m not sure, because not even its evolutionary line justifies catching one. If you’re looking for a much better Grass-Type evolution line, I’d highly recommend catching an Oddish over this horrible excuse of a Pokémon.

4. Dunsparce

Dunsparce is in desperate need of an evolution. It looks like it should have one, but it simply does not. Its vanilla Normal Typing hardly makes any sense. Why wouldn’t it have a secondary typing of either Flying or Ground? It is a rare Pokémon, but it isn’t nearly as hard to find as Feebas is. If Dunsparce somehow gained an evolution, then there might be a reason to own one. For now, Dunsparce is a completely pointless Pokémon that never should have been included in the games.

5. Delibird

Delibird serves no purpose competitively or casually. It is a single-stage Ice/Flying Type Pokémon that doesn’t offer anything special to the typing. Why even bother with a Delibird when you can just use an Articuno instead? It’s slow, has an incredibly weak defense, and is overall a really poorly designed Pokémon. The only redeeming factors of Delbird are that it looks sort of fun, and it makes for some great Holiday Pokémon tie-ins. This present Pokémon was not a gift from the game developers, and is almost universally ignored by all players.

6. Stunfisk

This is one of the dumbest looking Pokémon out there. It’s a flat fish that’s Ground/Electric-Type. Why isn’t it a Ground/Water-Type? It literally makes no sense that this Pokémon has an Electric Typing. It is outclassed competitively by other Ground-Types and can’t really learn any powerful moves to take down opponents. If it didn’t look so horrible, maybe Stunfisk would actually matter to some trainers. As is, it’s one of the dumbest Pokémon out there, and that’s saying something.

7. Luvdisk

Joining the ranks of horrible Pokémon is the useless monotype Water-Type called Luvdisk. Luvdisk are weak, both defensively and offensively. It lacks an evolution and cannot take down any Pokémon in its path. It looks like a heart, making it great for Valentine’s Day merchandise, but it doesn’t do anything in any of the games’ battles. The most help that it has ever offered is the fact that it holds a Heart Scale, which is an important item in the games, as it allows for you to remember moves that your Pokémon has forgotten. This poor Pokémon will often be beaten and mugged for its Heart Scale, and then left for dead. It leads a pretty sad life, now doesn’t it?

8. Mantyke

Why Manytke was introduced in Generation IV is beyond me. Mantine was perfectly fine on its own and gains nothing from having this weakling added on to its evolutionary line. While Mantyke does have fairly high special defense, it sacrifices all of its attack power for that one boosted stat. If you hatched a Mantyke, do yourself a favor and get a Remoraid in your party ASAP. Evolve this baby into its much more useful evolution so it doesn’t go to waste.

9. Phione

By far the stupidest Pokémon out there is Phione. It exists literally to be a worse Manaphy. It can only be accessed by breeding a Manaphy, but strangely enough, it can’t evolve back into a Manaphy. What’s the point of a Pokémon that cannot evolve into its own evolutionary line? It remains the only Pokémon that has this annoying attribute, making it easily the dumbest Pokémon out there.
