What is the most underrated pokemon?
« on: April 09, 2010, 07:27:16 AM »
What do you think the most underrated pokemon is?
For me it would have to be mew, seeing not many players have had the chance to use mew.
Mew can transform and learn any type of moves, but for someone would hasnt used it they would know.

So what do you the people of PU think?

I see nobody using it because they can't figure out how to set it up as a great wall

Pinsir.

Has to be the most underrated. I havent been able to find out if its UU or NU, but Im sure its way down the list. Which is sad, considering its stats (purely atk y def) are fairly good.
Am I a ghost or a man? Or a man-ghost offspring that come from mi father's inexplicable penetration of mi mother's ghostly woman parts? Or am I a child imitating a man's ability to change into a ghostly form in order to preserve mi appellation?

Actually, Wobbuffet is considered to be uber, due to its high HP and ability to use destiny bond, safegaurd, counter, encore, and mirror coat to cause damage.

For me, an underrated pokemon would be slowking. Just because its good special defense doesn't help much, because most special type attacks are either super effective or not very effective at all. But he still does have access to nasty plot, so trained with the right stats, he can be a quite effective sweeper.
I like slowpoke.

In the current meta game I really think Venusaur is very underrated.

I like that its grass/poison, with 2 stabs (grass knot and sludge bomb)
Making it an able counter to many grass Pokemon as well :)

Oh! Rattatta.  Focus Sash+Endeavor+quick attack. Only ghosts, sand streamers, and toxic slingers can beat that 1v1

Oddish, Gloom, and Vileplume. I understand that their stats aren't all that high, but I love to have evolve them and have them on my team. Their abilities to poison and heal are always great assets to me. I also hardly ever see anyone with them which makes me happy.

I'm also into Electabuzz for no real good reason. I've just always felt he was a good electric pokemon to have on hand. Again, rare that I see anyone battle with him.

I get ya, last time I played fire red. I choose to catch an oddish, and quickly evolved it in to vileplume. It seems so harmless but in battle it's actually quite useful. I made it learn toxic, which after a few turn hurts the opponent a great deal of damage every time they move. It can learn sleep power and stun spore which is a great advantage. And giga drain, oooh what a sweet attack. And lastly it can also have solarbeam. The pokemon games aint all about power like alot of people think ^^

Umbreon

This one might not be underrated but he is an EXCELLENT tank.  I don't even have any attacks on mine.  Just Protect, Toxic, Confuse Ray, Moonlight  Steel and Poison types are a real hassle but I can get them eventually with CR.  Plus he absolutely owns the ever annoying wobuffet.  I'm hoping to get one for pvp in PU.
