>>55012479Obviously I was talking about its 72 special attack.
If we were to stretch this thought experiment to it's limits, say, continuing Smogon's tier system, eliminating ~50 pokemon at a time until we have a tier with only the bottom 50 pokemon around, would unown be the worst?
I don't think so. 72 sp. attack and indifference to choice lock makes it probably among the strongest in the tier, and access to any type would make it incredibly unpredictable and hard to wall.
Taking a deep dive into the worst of the worst, the true worst is obvious: Cosmog, with Splash and Teleport as it's only moves.
Outside of the intentionally useless Cosmog, then next worst would likely be Kricketot. Painfully minimalist movepool, 25 base attack, and among the (most likely) common type in this hypothetical tier, without having any utility like Poison Chance from Weedle, Stun Spore from Scatterbug, Sticky Webs from Blip Bug, or raw 70 base speed and 2 STAB moves of Combee.
Again, this is comparing Unown to the bottom of the Not Full Evolved mons, which is saying something.
