>>34397034It has a unique ability and gimmick. It is one of the rarest Pokemon in SM, being available only in weather encounters and only about 10% of the time. It was used in the Lurantis trial in SM. It was shown recently in the SM anime, including the episode with the aforementioned trial.
>>34397068>Maractus Probably more forgotten than Castform. It's a Grass-type that you literally have to go out of your way to get in Resort Desert. N doesn't use it. Its stats aren't anything impressive. And even Cacturne fulfills its niche better.
>Stunky line Skuntank was used by Jupiter in Gen IV. Stunky was used by a shitton of Team Galactic grunts. (In BW2, Stunky is available in the Hidden Grotto extralink missions.) Still it is a version exclusive in most games and it never appeared since XY.
>Vullaby/MandibuzzTwo of the first few Pokemon designed by a Westerner (James Turner). Vullaby can be caught relatively early in SM. Mandibuzz is used by Kahili. Mandibuzz had some good usage in the early XY metagame before Aegislash was banned. Not too forgettable.
>CarnivineUsed by James in the DP anime.
