Not counting legends or UBs
Best
1: Alolan Marrowak. The hero nobody expected, Alolan Marrowak proved that in these days of le balanced meta, GF can occasionally throw a wrench into their own mistakes, Alolan Marrowack bends over the Tapus, UB's, and other fun of balanced meta and fucks it with the bone. Ya did good, kid.
2: Mudsdale. Mudsdale is a fucking tank. It's easy to get, and breaks single player by itself with Stamina. This thing is easily one of the best ingame Pokemon I have ever had the pleasure of using. The only thing holding it back is a lack of recovery. If this thing gets Slack Off via tutor, it'll be OU for sure.
3: Bewear: Fluffy is one hell of a drug. Uninspiring BST, unweildly typing, this thing was destined for the depths of PU with its bear bretheren. But then it was revealed that it blanket resists contact moves.
Worst:
3: Lurantis. It evolves a tad too late, has Grass Type Movepool Syndrome, and stats that make it good at attacking, and literally nothing else.
2: Crabrawler/Crabominable: So lemme get this straight. You have to get lucky when searching berry piles to find this thing, then it is sub-par for the beginning of the game, and useless in the second half. When you finally get to literally the last cave before the E4, it FINALLY evolves... into an utter shitmon. Nice.
1: Gumshoos. I wanted to like Gumshoos, I really did. I love the detective theme, I love its ability, but it sucks. It sucks hard. I's signiture ability is cool in theory, but in practice Gumshoos will never force anything out, meaning it is better off running a half-assed Strong Jaw set. It's defences are paper, and it's not quite fast, meaning it dies in one hit when literally anything outspeeds it. It's useless ingame since it dies so easily. I have never been more dissapointed by a Pokemon, and this is easily the worst Pokemon to have on your team.
