Pokecull Round 1: Generation 2

100 enter, how many leave?

Part 1Part 3



Croconaw
Maybe the water starters just have awkward teenage years? This looks like a reject from that Dinosaurs show. Ya know, the one with the puppets.

Ledyba, Ledian
The first is a bit derpy, the second looks like a rejected Namco/Bandai tv show mascot.


Chinchou, Lanturn
Two very diferently bad designs. The first looks like a lab mistake and the second is just dull, like it was a filler that somehow got in.


Igglybuff
It has a Dreamcast logo on its head and looks like it's been huffing paint thinner. It's somehow even lazier a design than it's grown form, which is even more simplistic. How did that happen?


Togetic
So when Togepi evolves it's head turns into a torn up bell-end and it sprouts wings. Not in my book.


Flaaffy
Another weird adolescent pokemon. Aside from anything else why is it pink? It's evolution goes yellow, pink, yellow. Even the game seems to know it doesn't belong.


Azumarill
Marill is a little ball of simple cuteness, hell if it weren't so cute it would be on the chop for being so simple. It doesn't deserve to become this dumbass though.


Politoad
Sorry kid, you are doomed by your shitty lineage. If this had been a gen 1 and replaced polywrath maybe things could be different. So sad.


Yanma
Complicated in a bad way, its just too busy.


Quagsire
This is a melted Pikachu. It's wave and smile are because it thinks that you will be the one to end it's awful existence.


Unown
Whoever had this idea at gamefreak should be forced to walk through Pyonyang wearing a t-shirt that reads "Southside Rocks!" in gang lettering.


Skarmory
Remember Scratch from Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog? Apparently someone in the art department did.

Tyrogue
Another bizzarely digited humanoid fighter. I feel like i need to start up a camp to house these undesirables.

Smoochum
The act of trying to justify Jynx is almost worse than inventing it in the first place. Stop trying to make Jynx happen!
Magby
That's not a hairdo, thats what a babys head looks like when you use it to nail together a shed.

Ho-oh
I suspect that the designers regretted this thing immediately after it aired in the anime pilot but were bound to it. Next to Lugia it looks like a child's drawing. It makes me think of the insane tramp who lives in my mind.


Celebi
A legendary, godlike pokemon based on celery... seriously? Celery is a terrible thing, even people who do eat it do so out of duress.

Culled
This Gen: 19
Total: 44

Right, 19, nearly a fifth of this gens additions including two legendaries. Not bad work but still only the start.

Next up Generation 3.
