In the past, we’ve talked about many Pokemon, like dog Pokemon or cat Pokemon. Today, we’re going to talk about some of the weakest Pokemon in the Pokemon Universe.
Many Pokemon fans say that it’s more than just a fad; it’s a real thing. There have been more than 800 Pokemon released, so you’re bound to find some strong ones. But what about the weak ones?
So, today we’re going to talk about the weakest Pokemon in the Pokemon universe.
Before we start, I want to say that this list is based on my own opinions, so if you don’t agree with me, let me know in the comments.
Let’s start with the 45 weakest Pokémon ever.
Updated in June, 2024, by Swati: The weakest Pokemon pool grows with over 1,000 and more on the way.
That implies more Pokemon for this list,
but keep in mind that even weak Pokemon can be used.
Pokemon is about utilising your favourites, not the best,
but it’s entertaining to see which Pokemon finish last.
52. Geodude
Various descriptors and candidates are used to characterise the Pokemon that is the weakest.
One of the few Pokemon in the entire series that effectively accomplishes all three of these:
a large number of weaknesses, a limited selection of subpar techniques,
and irritating appearances is the armed pebble Geodude. Negative impressions are the consequence of this.
This Pokemon is one of the few that is incapable of victory against any opponent.
The six unique vulnerabilities, lamentable Special Defence stat,
and one of the lowest velocities in the entire series are all depressingly high, despite the substantial physical defence.
In the game, a Geodude from Kanto is the most detrimental Pokemon to add to your team and the greatest squander of a trainer’s time,
as it is readily vanquished by nearly every common move.
51. Ledyba
Ledyba, a Bug-Type Pokemon from Generation 2, is no exception to the general trend of early Bug-Type Pokemon to be lacklustre.
It is equipped with some exceptional special defence capabilities;
however, this constitutes its entire arsenal.
It is susceptible to five varieties due to its combination of Bug-Type and Flying-Type.
It will always be challenging to justify the purchase of a Ledyba over other Pokemon,
despite the fact that it is capable of learning some remarkable attacks with dedication.
Numerous Bug-Type Pokemon surpass this diminutive creature.
50. Pumpkaboo
An endearing haunted jack-o-lantern that boasts a growingly popular combination of Ghost and Grass-Types,
Kalos’s own Pumpkaboo is one of the largest anomalies to the rule that many of the worst Pokemon in the game are also the eldest.
This Pokemon is quite intriguing in concept, as each one has a distinctive dimension,
which is evident in its HP and Speed metrics.
Regrettably, this results in metrics that are not particularly significant,
and even when this Grass-Type evolves into Gourgeist,
the statistics are not high enough for any dimension except the largest and smallest to be relevant.
In contrast to other Pokemon, they are not particularly noteworthy,
which makes it a somewhat hopeless endeavour.
49. Plusle And Minun
Plusle and Minun are without a doubt the most vulnerable of the numerous Pika-clones that are introduced in each generation of Pokemon titles.
Initially, they were introduced as complementary tag team companions,
with the ability to enhance each other’s attributes in order to give them an advantage in the Double Battle system of Pokemon Ruby And Sapphire.
The problem is that this ability is linked to a pair of Cheering Pokemon that are laughably weak and have a limited number of attacks beyond Electric-Type moves.
Nevertheless, they maintain a substantial number of relatively feeble assaults,
including Spark, for the majority of the game.
In theory, these should be as potent as they are endearing;
however, they have never received a sufficient enhancement to be effective, thus rendering them completely useless.
48. Eevee
Eevee is one of the most popular Pokemon that has never been excellent, despite the numerous benefits it receives.
Later in this list, you will encounter an abundance of Pokemon that are only beneficial when they evolve.
The original Normal-Type form has been attempted to be effective in a mainline game in a variety of ways,
including the implementation of a unique Z-Move and a Gigantamax Form.
Nevertheless, none of these endeavours have been successful,
and it has consistently been more advantageous to develop it into one of its Eeveelutions.
Pokemon Let’s Go Eevee is the sole exception to this rule,
as it was ultimately bestowed a diverse array of distinctive move tutor attacks with overpowered abilities.
Nevertheless, it is unusable in the majority of other Pokemon appearances and is dependent on some enhanced metrics in this spin-off,
making it feel as void as any other attempt to boost the neutral beginnings of Pokemon’s largest evolution line.
47. Snom
Additionally, the development of Snom Frosmoth is novel to Sword & Shield.
Frosmoth was anticipated to function as an Ice-Type Volcarona equivalent,
a formidable special combatant, and a significant setup threat prior to the game’s release.
While this assertion has some validity, it requires an enormous amount of effort to establish a swath with Frosmoth.
This is not at all surprising when one examines Frosmoth.
Its Speed is as low as 20 and it lacks a fundamental attribute above 45 (Special Attack).
The only moves in its learnset are Powder Snow and Struggle Bug.
Frosmoth’s pre-evolution is subpar, even by the standards of infant Pokemon.
However, it can perform some significant lifting with its Hidden Ability,
which reduces all special attack damage it encounters.
46. Blipbug
The initial statistics of the Blipbug, a regional insect, are truly disconcerting.
This Pokemon is one that you will be anxious to observe evolve in the hopes that the effort of raising it to level 10 will be worthwhile,
as it is a combination of a single type, Bug. Dottler, the evolution is somewhat of an improvement, albeit not significantly.
At level 30, the circumstance becomes more auspicious, and Dottler undergoes a transformation into Orbeetle.
Orbeetle is an exceptional Pokemon, boasting a robust initial attribute total and the Bug category’s incorporation of the Psychic type.
Nevertheless, none of this is of any help to the unfortunate Blipbug, who, despite its evolution, remains an excessively fragile Pokemon.
45. Patrat
Patrat is the weakest Pokemon, and it looks like a chipmunk. It is mostly brown, but its belly and face are tan. It has a big tooth that sticks out of its mouth and is pointed.
