Favorite obscure/under-used pokemon

[Kruxxor]

My team on Soul Silver (I'm only up to the 5th Badge so far)

Khangaskan - AWESOME
Haunter (Want to trade to make him a Gengar)
Slowpoke
Retarded starter fire type (I want to change with Scyther)
Elekid
Nidoran (Because someone has to learn the HMs)

I want to change Nidoran with Mankey/Primape, but you can't get a Mankey in SoulSilver, so i'm stuffed.

 

[Crystal Cuckoo]

ABSOL.

What a boss (though I doubt he's that obscure or under-used, given its Attack stat)

 

[Aggressor and Usurper]

Houndoom. Always felt he was sorely underrated-I mean, Fire/Dark? It's AWESOME!
That reminds me, I really must fire up my SS copy again...

 

[Marter]

Pinsir

Best Anti-Lead ever.

 

[hopeneverdies]

Manectric doesn't get a whole lotta love, but it's Static ability is absolutely awesome.

 

[Ninjamedic]

Solrock, Flareon and tropius. All I ever need.

 

[Hothcliff]

Lickitung, you handsome fiend.

 

[tjarne]

Scyther is pretty much the coolest pokemon ever.

FINALLY another Scyther user WOOHOO! What is not awesome about a human sized bug that moves at fictional ninja speed and has blades for arms that can cut trees down with a single swipe.

Absolutly nothing, also when I played Yellow he always(as in always not just often) with slash.

Farfetch'd!

I seriously hope they include an evolution for it in White/Black.

So do I, no matter how awesome Scyther is Farfetch'd will always have a place in my heart.

 

[teutonicman]

Scizor
Acanine
Wailord
Flygon
ALAKAZAM!

 

[traineesword]

Hoppip, Mawile, Zigzagoon (it is shiny orange), Dunsparce, Missingno. and Zangoose

So damn cute.
cute but got that deadly look about it
pickup= average of 3 nuggets between each badge and other rareish items too
Its quite strong and helps you get through early game
this can evolve into a Kangaskhan that knows 2 water guns, sky-attack and fly ;p
and Zangoose is soo powerful, seriously, he solo-ed the Hoenn league by accident (my others sucked)

 

[Cpt-Dysprosa]

I've always had a soft spot for Eevee myself. With a pink bow; (and it you treat it right =D) Return gets surprisingly powerful later on. I guess it's overlooked more than obscure; as one is always so eager to evolve it (I usually favour Vaporeon at that stage).

 

[Jark212]

Sandslash, the greatest Pokemon ever:

Spoiler

 

[Banana Phone Man]

I never see many people with Octillary or Ampharos. That might just be me though not looking hard enough. Still why wouldn't you have them. Octillary can use pretty much any type of move as long as it's a beam. example: flamethrower, solarbeam, icebeam, hyper beam and I think i might have taught mine zap cannon on the first pokemon gold.

 

[VanityGirl]

Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee.
I LOVED those two guys! Two awesome fighter typers. Very strange looking creatures.

 

[crazypsyko666]

Scyther is pretty much the coolest pokemon ever.

I personally like Heracross More Than Scyther But Before Second Gen Pokemon Came Out I Liked Scyther More

I just like the style more. I don't play pokemon, and I haven't watched the show in at least eight years.... I'm a first gen kid through and through.

 

[PurpleLeafRave]

Soul Silver team:

Feraligatr
Arcanine
Scizor
Slowking
Dragonite
Gliscor

I don't think many people use Slowking or Gliscor, but the rest are pretty ordinary.

 

[gigastrike]

Is Magnezone popular? What about Skarmory?

 

[OceanRunner]

My Emerald team includes Azumaril(Max), Flygon(Atlas) and Crobat(Bats).

 

[Just_A_Glitch]

MY favorite underused pokemon is probably Absol. I don't know many people who really like it, but I've got a bitching setup for it.

Mean Look
Swords Dance
Sucker Punch
Psycho Cut

I love him.

And my Ludicolo who I use for Rain Dance teams. With his Rain Dish ability, or whatever its called, he regains 1/16 health every turn in the rain. Add that too Leftovers and what I get from Giga Drain and Ingrain, he just doesn't die.

And I played through SS with a team of 6 Dittos. It was intense.

 

[Druyn]

I use Breloom, the evolved form of shroomish, a Fighting grass type?! MADNESS
Seriously though in Saphire its double useful against the dark and water types they use, also its attack is monstrous, also shroomish is adowable :3

Yeah, I use him too. I dont see why hes not more popular. Him and Blaziken were my two starters for double battles. He seriously wrecks bitches.

And seriously, Sandslash is awesome. Hes a tiny little ball of swords!
