Most Underrated Gen. 5 Pokemon

[StoneKold]

What do you think? I'm not sure what other people use, but I'd say that Sigilyph is most underrated. The first time I played the game, in the Relic Castle that guys Sigilyph destroyed my team, and its BSTs aren't that bad for a pokemon that doesn't evolve.

 

[PH1RESTRIKE]

Yeah, Sigilyph has some nasty Defense.

I'm not even sure if they're underrated, but Serperior and Virizion have nice bulk.

I tihnk Musharna can be a bit underrated because despite her low speed, well when you teach it Trick Room it is going to be a real beast. I don't know where to find/buy the TM though

According to a friend of mine who battles competitively, Serperior is shit. Not true, I say: her HP stat rocks, and what's more, I like that her Attack and Sp.Attack base values are the same.

FVCK YEAH SERPERIOR

Druddigon. I don't know why, but it's served me well.

Heck, even without Trick Room my Musharna outsped quite a few Pokemon.

ducklett. that dude is a pimp. beat my electabuzz once, because thunder would never make any contact. but man, ducklett is not bad at all.

Nicknamed mine "Daffy" to make it even more awesome

:unworthy:

 

[Giga Magikarp]

Stunfisk I think is very underrated. The thing can take hits like a champ, and has OK attack as well. Sure, it may not have the best defensive typing, but it's not Magcargo.

I used a Magcargo and it was a good defensive pokemon in Ruby but Whiscash is better water pokemon...


I also think Confargigus is epic [because its a possessed coffin] and his stats and movepool aren't too terrible

 

[Tyrannotaur]

Huh. I have one in the Box named "Plucky".

I'll agree with Sigilyph, Druddigon and Ducklett.
Also I've used Basculine for a bit and its not terrible. But honestly I think Mandibuzz is hugely underated. Everyone loves the awesome that is Braviary that no one really pays attention to poor Mandi. I too have done this. Which is why I decided to train one.

 

[Hyasynth]

Sigilyph is boss.
That thing would consistently rape my teams in-game until I decided to man up and get one. Mine has Magic Guard, and it is a complete troll.
I love it.

I used her and her attack stat is really good to say the least

 

[βƹβƹ ɱɪɢηѻη]

Mienshao is definetely under-rated. I mean, for once, it has the most appealing look of all fighting-typed Pokemon. At least for me.

 

[Opossumguy]

Not many people seem to use Crustle, but Stealth Rock + Shell Smash + X-Scissor/Rock Slide + Rocky Helmet always served me well. Crustle's one of my favorites this Gen.

This.

Mandibuzz and Vullaby became two of my favourites even before I got the game, due to their awesome designs. But they both proved to be surprisngly good battlers, and thanks to their excellent defences and hp, can really take a beating. Their attack stats aren't brilliant, but they're able to fix that with a Nasty Plot and Roost combo.

 

[Orion-Sama]

I'd say Vanilluxe, which people seem to hate for a silly reason. It's a pretty cute Pokémon, and it was really strong too. My Cirno was very helpful, and her Ice Beam was astounding! Really, the only bad thing about Vanilluxe is its atrocious Movepool. I don't even like Ice Pokémon, but Vanilluxe was just... exotic. No pun intended.

Sigilyph was epic. It was the Flying Pokémon that impressed me most out of the earlier ones. Braviary came way too late, so I ended up using Sigilyph as my Flying Pokémon. She didn't disappoint at all. Nazca pretty much took Marshal all by herself, and put up a great standing against many others, Shauntal included.

 

[Arc Blader]

I'm not sure if it's underrated, but Sawk has turned out to be an unexpected force. Not only does it have great Attack and Speed, but its ability, coupled with both Reversal and Counter, makes it nigh unstoppable.

i dont know how so many people keep getting beat by sigilyph, i just used my archen against it and won every time

i dont know if it is underrated but archeops with acrobatic was always the best for me
