Pokemon, after 20+ years, still manages to introduce dozens of new Pokemon that win the hearts of fans both old and new. The🍨 Fighting-type is home to plenty of great Pokemon designs people consider fierce or intimidating,🌠 but most trainers never include one on their active team.
Part of this is due to there being fewer Fighting-types, but also because some of them are weak and not worth to effort of evolving in some trainer's eyes. This assumption continues to be proven wrong with the release of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokemon Sword & Shield.
8 Clobbopus (Galar) - Generation 8📖 🌱
One could argue that the Galar region featured 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:in Pokemon Sword & Shield has t𝔍he strongest roster of Fighting-type Pokemon across the board. Not only does it have seven Fighting-type Pokemon, which is a high number for the type in any given region, but most of them are powerful and are purposeful in design.
The final form of Clobbopus, Grapploct, comes across like a recolor of Generation II's Octillery. In fact, Clobbopus feels like the base form Octillery should have had in the first place. Instead, a small anchovy-like fish, Remoraid, evolves into a reཧd octopus for some reason.
7 Stuff𒀰ul (Alola) - Generation 7 ꧋
Stufful is the Magikarp of Fighting-types, in the sense that it is pretty weak and tough to effectively battle with but sticking by it results in a powerhous🌸e of a Pokemon. The thing Stufful has over Magikarp is that it is naturally cute, which means that trainers are more likely to capture and own one whether or not they want to battle with it.
Nature is wild considering this tiny bear turns into one of the biggest threats to humans. Bewear is known to inflict qu🧸ite a𝄹 bit of damage on anything or anyone who crosses it.
6 Pancham (Kalos) - Generat🍃ion 6 🍎
Despite how small 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the Kalos region is in terms of native Pokemon, it still manages to have four different Fighting-types. One is the final form of the Grass-type starter, another is the luchador bird known as Hawlucha, and the last two are part of a panda-inspired evoluti🔥onary🐷 line.
That means that the base form of this line, Pancham, is statistically the worst of the bunch. In many other generations, it likely wouldn't have to hold this title, but in the Kalos region, it must display this honor. People look for any type of victory in what is considered the low point of th💦e franchise.
5 𝓡 🅺 Mienfoo (Unova) - Generation 5
Trying to convince a trainer to invest in obtainingඣ a Dragonite or any other pseudo-legendary evolutionary line is difficult. That's why a normal Fighting-type like Mienfoo not evolving into its final form until level 50 is laughable and ridiculous, especially since it already happens to be a type that most trainers overlook.
The franchise asks trainers to level up a ba൲se Pokemon with below-average stages to a point where it's near the same level as most of the Pokemon owned and battled with by the Elite Four and the Unova Pokemon Champion.
4 Croa𝓀gunk (Sinnoh) - Generation 4
With the upcoming release of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the Sinnoh remakes, fans are going to be able to re-introduce themselves to all of the Pokemon that call the region home. When it came down to either Croagunk or Riol♑u as the region's worst Fighting-type, the loser was rather clear.
Lucario is one of the franchise's more popular Pokemon and Riolu is much more aesthetically appealing than C♑roagunk. Don't sleep on the Poison and Fighting-type as its final form, Toxicroak, is sneakily one of the strongest Pokemon in the generation.
3 🦋 Meditite (Hoenn) - Generation 3 ✃
Despite it being the worst Fighting-type in the Hoenn region, play🍬ers will want to train Meditite and evolve it solely based on its unique dual-typing.
As a Fighting and Psychic-type, Meditite provideꩲs its trainer with versatility and options in battle. Level 37 is a bit high for a 1-stage evolution, but to some, it may be worth the investment regardless of how long it takes. To others that may be too steep a hill to climb to claim the reward that is a fully evolved Medicham.
2 Heracross (Johto) - Generation 2 𒅌 🦩
Putting Heracross on any list that isn't positive is a bummer considering The Pokemon Company has done little to elevate♍ this beloved Bug and Fighting-type. Yes, it has received a Mega Evolution, but fans have wished for years that it obtained either a kaiju-like evolution or at the very least a new regional form.
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokemon Gold & Silver only had three new Fighting-ty🐻pes in ཧthe Johto region and the other two evolve into Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan, respectively. That means that Heracross was the only possible candidate for this list.
1 Machop (𓄧Kanto) - Generatio﷽n I
When trying to figure out which 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Kanto native Fighting-type was the worst, the discussion came down to Mankey 𒉰and Machop. Compared against one another, Machop's strength became its weakness in that obtaining its third form a trainer would need to find a trustworthy trade partner.
For every pair of friends who could do this easily, there is a sneaky semi-stranger who is willing to cut bait and steal someone's Machamp. In ter𓆏ms of base stats, Machop and Mankey are eerily similar, so there needed to be some other factor to crown the worst of the worst.
