Here is the SECOND Group of 5 Pokemon to be eliminated today.
140. Metapod
Honestly, while I could have put Metapod higher, I just didn’t really feel like it. I will agree its uselessness does make it interesting, not to mention hilarious, and honestly, that’s why it isn’t lower on this list. Plus, it evolves really early, and if you caught it as a Caterpie, it CAN actually still do damage. Just don’t bother catching one in the wild.
139. Ekans
I remember the mini-games in the Pokemon Stadium games and one of them featured throwing Ekans around like rings. That was a fun time. That being said, Ekans is really just kind of there as the evolutionary line right before Pikachu’s. Also, while I remember Team Rocket when I watched its early seasons, I remember them more from having an Arbok, who we will get into later.
138. Paras
I’m guessing Paras is supposed to be a shortened name for parasite when they were naming Pokemon? Regardless, I was never big into Paras, but it did look cute in this form. Honestly though, it’s this low because it isn’t really as interesting, information-wise, as its evolution. Also, it’s pretty weak with a lot of weaknesses.
137. Weepinbell
About the only thing noteworthy I can remember about Weepinbell is that, if you have ever played Pokemon Zeta or Omicron, you would know that Bellsprout is one of the Starters you can choose from. However, I have Omicron and didn’t choose Bellsprout, so I have no real bond with Weepinbell, especially when I can easily get Petilil as my Grass-type for that game and evolve it into a Lilligant.
136. Shellder
I like how it looks cute with its tongue sticking out, but that’s really about all I can say about Shellder that I like, especially when it is supposedly what makes a Slowpoke turn into a Slowbro. Like, how does THAT work out when their appearances are different? All in all, a pretty forgettable Pokemon that doesn’t really do anything for me.
