It was in Gen 2 where useless pokemon really took the lime light. Cleffa and Igglybuff serve next to no purpose other than being dex filler. Among them singular stage pokemon were rampant and considered quite weak, Girafarig, Corsola Dunsparce are remembered as among some of the weakest mons.
Gen 2 also boasts having introduced Unown, and even the pokemon that holds the lowest BST of all, Sunkern.
Gen 2's dex issues don't stop there. It was in Gen 2 where the true oversaturation of legendaries began. Generation 1 had 151 pokemon, of those only 5 were true legendaries. In generation 2 of Pokemon we received 100 new pokemon but 6 new legendaries, far skewing the the number of legends to none.
Gen 2 was inarguably the worst Pokemon generation.
