At this point I'm willing to attribute that to good ole' Bishie SFF! --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

What we should do is try to find the weakest RBY Pokemon and nominate it! Post-RBY would be too easy. The question of course is what the weakest RBY Pokemon would be. Obviously one that wasn't a big deal in the anime, for once. Paras, maybe? Its one episode sure sucked it up! --- Not Wylvane |

First one that comes to mind is Jynx. Needed to trade to get it, ugly design, not very good in battle. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

The weakest RBY Pokemon would be... Seaking --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 83/104 - Today's Winners: Cloud and Riku |

From: charmander6000 | #207 Except he has that "**** YEAH, SEAKING" fad behind him! --- Not Wylvane |
charmander6000 | Posted 2/27/2010 5:28:18 PM | message detail |
As for a reasons why... - Among many water Pokemon - People don't fish too often - No one uses it in battling - Rarely seen in anime --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 83/104 - Today's Winners: Cloud and Riku |

Seaking has a major fad behind it. --- Demyx is better than Axel. |

I think the weakest RBY Pokemon would be.... Drowzee. --- who needs a dick when you're good at smash brothers - stingers Now this is entertainment! |

Seaking >>>>> Metapod |

Wow someone made a fad out of the least known RBY Pokemon Probably was the reason. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 83/104 - Today's Winners: Cloud and Riku |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/27/2010 5:30:45 PM | message detail |
From: Fr0zoN | #212 Metapod vs Metapod is probably the most epic match in the history of the anime! --- Not Wylvane |
charmander6000 | Posted 2/27/2010 5:31:02 PM | message detail |
Everyone knows Metapod since it was a Pokemon people used. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 83/104 - Today's Winners: Cloud and Riku |

Dewgong would fit the bill of 'random water Pokemon no one used'. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

Fact/Fiction: Vault Boy would have beat Leon if his pic was his baby-punting one. --- Not Wylvane |
charmander6000 | Posted 2/27/2010 5:32:15 PM | message detail |
Dewgong would work. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 83/104 - Today's Winners: Cloud and Riku |
MegatokyoEd | Posted 2/27/2010 5:32:18 PM | message detail |
The weakest would be Omastar. NOBODY likes Omastar. --- Demyx is better than Axel. |
vcharon | Posted 2/27/2010 5:32:44 PM | message detail |
Dewgong is a cute little seal and wouldn't be weak by default. --- :> |
Fr0zoN | Posted 2/27/2010 5:33:39 PM | message detail |
What about Bellsprout |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/27/2010 5:34:20 PM | message detail |
From: MegatokyoEd | #219 People are probably nostalgic about their fossils, though! I know I loved my Kabuto/Kabutops! --- Not Wylvane |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/27/2010 5:34:56 PM | message detail |
From: Fr0zoN | #221 Bellsprout's head looks like a condom! Plus Victreebel was awesome in the anime because it was always trying to murder James! --- Not Wylvane |
Fr0zoN | Posted 2/27/2010 5:36:41 PM | message detail |
My bottom 5 would be Gloom Omastar Zubat Bellsprout Metapod |
vcharon | Posted 2/27/2010 5:37:30 PM | message detail |
I think most will agree Metapod sucks but it's a little too recognizable to be the weakest of all. --- :> |
KamikazePotato | Posted 2/27/2010 5:37:31 PM | message detail |
Bellsprout had that one episode that everyone remembers where it beat Ash's Pikachu and Bulbasaur before losing to Muk. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
KamikazePotato | Posted 2/27/2010 5:38:11 PM | message detail |
Zubat We have a winner! Recognized by all, and exactly the reason he would do so poorly. Call it the 'Navi Effect'. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
17thCupOfCoffee | Posted 2/27/2010 5:38:11 PM | message detail |
Guys Drowzee Let's be real here. --- who needs a dick when you're good at smash brothers - stingers Now this is entertainment! |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/27/2010 5:40:07 PM | message detail |
Good point. Zubat probably would be the weakest precisely because people would recognize it! --- Not Wylvane |
Fr0zoN | Posted 2/27/2010 5:40:19 PM | message detail |
I like Drowzee |

Zubat/Geodude/Rattata --- Calling Pokemon RBY a top 10 game was the most insane contest jibba-jabba ever Woe unto he who sig bets with the near-invincible Lord High creativename |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/27/2010 5:53:17 PM | message detail |
People love Geodude, and I don't think people would be as pissed at Rattata as they would at Zubat! Zubat might even be weaker than most post-RBY Pokemon! Zubat's basically the Tingle of RBY, always around when you never want to see him, which is pretty much all the time! --- Not Wylvane |
KamikazePotato | Posted 2/27/2010 5:54:00 PM | message detail |
Oh, hey, Riku hit 47% when I wasn't looking. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/27/2010 6:04:07 PM | message detail |
Riku's getting the night vote! Go figure! --- "Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!" "Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!" |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/27/2010 6:04:55 PM | message detail |
In fact, Falcon only won that hour by 14 votes! --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |
ffmasterjose | Posted 2/27/2010 6:08:31 PM | message detail |
Poliwag fits the bill of random water Pokemon that no one really cares about And then they bastardized him with Politoed. --- 93/106 points - The Great GameFAQs Character Battle VIII NP: Cloud Strife > Chris Redfield | Riku > Captain Falcon |
LinkMarioSamus | Posted 2/27/2010 6:12:27 PM | message detail |
We need to get Alakazam in the next contest. On a side note, we should also rally Demon's Souls for the next Games Contest. |
ffmasterjose | Posted 2/27/2010 6:37:49 PM | message detail |
Holy crap I'm totally nominating Alakazam if I win the Guru. Sorry Seifer. --- 93/106 points - The Great GameFAQs Character Battle VIII NP: Cloud Strife > Chris Redfield | Riku > Captain Falcon |
TheCodeisBosco | Posted 2/27/2010 6:45:34 PM | message detail |
Weakest
RBY Pokemon would be... Magnemite, maybe? Wasn't important in the anime
if I remember correctly, doesn't have a memorable character design,
could only be found in an optional location... yeah, he gets my vote. --- CURRENT BRACKET SCORE: 90. Characters who helped my bracket most: Falcon, Sub-Zero, Jecht |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/27/2010 6:46:48 PM | message detail |
You people turning on FFVIII characters! This will not be tolerated! --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |
Gooper Blooper | Posted 2/27/2010 6:46:59 PM | message detail |
The weakest would be Omastar. NOBODY likes Omastar. ;~; My GEZORA disagrees with your assessment. Every Pokemon has fans. Yes, I've seen Jynx fans. It's a matter of finding the one with the least fans. Dewgong and Drowzee are good guesses due to their obscurity. Zubat might get too many recognizability votes despite the hatred. Jynx would definitely get enough joke votes to push it past last place. And I'd say almost every Pokemon is capable of besting at least a couple of the hyperfodders we've met in the past. Not just Tanner, but Sandal, Ellis. Curtiss and Riggs, too. Might not take Burmy or some other lame Pokemon over all of those, though. --- And then the car wash cost five dollars.

Gooper Blooper | Posted 2/27/2010 6:48:25 PM | message detail |
Oh, and for all the people who hate Zubat/Tentacool/etc because of wild encounters: Repel. I buy Repel as soon as you can get it. Reduces frustration factor immensely. It's Zubat-Be-Gone. --- And then the car wash cost five dollars. Pokemon Platinum: 1719 9497 5082 |

Man, are we still talking about Pokemon in here. --- wheresoever you go, go with all your heart |
TheCodeisBosco | Posted 2/27/2010 6:51:05 PM | message detail |
How could anyone hate Tentacool? I know he pops up a lot, but seriously, his character design is great - as is his evolution! --- CURRENT BRACKET SCORE: 90. Characters who helped my bracket most: Falcon, Sub-Zero, Jecht |
HaRRicH | Posted 2/27/2010 6:51:30 PM | message detail |
The weakest Pokemon from DP would still beat the likes of Tanner. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

From: HaRRicH | #247 I really don't think Burmy would beat Tanner. --- "I learned in England not to deceive the referees" - Cristiano Ronaldo http://i50.tinypic.com/ohsr5j.jpg |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/27/2010 7:03:42 PM | message detail |
From: ExThaNemesis | #248 I don't think you realize just how weak Tanner is. And the fun part is that Snake beat Tanner when he should have ideally been at his peak strength! Imagine what he'd be like if he made the contest now! --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/27/2010 7:04:55 PM | message detail |
Oh hey, Riku just won that last hour. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
