For example: Dark, Fairy, Fire, etc.

I vote on Normal

What's your choice?

Rock type, they got 5 weaknesses and most of their rock rype moves dont have very good accuracy. Hey that thunderbolt has 90 base power with a 100% chance of hitting? my rock slide has 75 base power and 90 % chance of hitting you. They worst part is I like using some rock type pokemon to Gigalith, Lycanroc, Archeops, just a small handul

Every type except Fire. I grew up on Pokemon red with Charizard. Plus fire is cool.

Is it because it's the harder difficulty curve with that starter pokemon or just because it looked cool

Normal, Water, Bug, Grass, and Ice.

Bug, Grass, & Ice are all weak against the most commonly used types; and they're oftentimes paired up with a type that only cripples them harder.

The issue with Normal & Water types is that there's just so many of them that they're naturally going to yield the highest number of shitmons.

I've always wanted to like the Ice-type.
But their great amount of weaknesses always keep them down.

Fairy, Rock and Ice.

The problem with the Fairy type is that it's really easy to exploit its weakness, and the fact that they are usually weak defensively doesn't help. Really, just slap on a good poison or steel move, and you'll crush almost all of them with 1-2 hits, even dragon types can handle them. Furthermore, Ice types are usually much more efficient at saying dragons anyway.

Rock types are practically a trade-off between strength, accuracy and how much you can use them, and while much stronger defensive-wise, Steel has it beat in total defense and usually doesn't have the same move problems that rock does.

Ice is only good for two things, slaying dragon types and the occasional grass/flying/ground pokemon, and in the latter, there are better pokemon for that job. Fire, Fighting, Steel and even Rock smashes most Ice types and are dime-a-dozen, at least in competitive battles.


Just stop worrying, and love the bomb.

As far as I remember, I've never used a dedicated poison type in any of my runs through any pokemon game. I'm talking about the likes of Muk and Weezing. There are so few pokemon they're good against in the first two or three generations.

Ditto is the worst one to use! >:(

Honestly, last time I played pokemon, psychic had drastically fallen from grace and was generally useless.

Ice had the same problem, but I felt some of it's strengths made it at least slightly better to have than psychic types.

Rock is p shit too

Surprised some people actually count normal as "worst". They have few weaknesses and they can learn any move in the game and tend to have high stats as well. They tend to not have their own niche but they tend to be very powerful to have in your arsenal if you put the work into giving them good moves.

With that said though, I certainly don't like using them out of aesthetics.
