>>39082922I like some of them existing because you can get them earlier on in your adventure rather than wait ages for some of their evolved form to show up.
You can't justify an early Magmar, Electabuzz or Jynx because their BST is too high, but you can get an Elekid, Magby or Smoochum early since they have early game stats and raise them up yourself as you progress. Late game mons suck and never get in my already established party.
Good babies
Elekid
Smoochum
Tyrouge (the evolution based on stats sucks tho)
Magby
Mime Jr
Mantyke
Munchlax
Bad babies
Pichu
Cleffa
Igglybuff
Azurill
Wynaut
Chingchong
Happiny
Budew and Bonsly are okay but should have existed at the same time as Roselia and Sudowoodo did.
