What's that one Pokemon that's among your favourites but you cannot deny is total shit in battle and drags the team down?

Hydreigon. Back in gen 5, it was a real beast, but with the advent of fairies, it got worse fast.

>Lurantis
Hot garbage, outclassed by literally everything. I never even bothered to catch a good one because of how unfortunately shit it is. Honestly my biggest disappointment with gen 7, it's my favorite Alola mon.
>Vespiquen
I can't even come up with a moveset that makes it usable, it's just so bad.
>Claydol
One of my favorites but it's just terrible. It has no health, so many abysmal weaknesses, and is outclassed in every way by Bronzong (in my top six). There's honestly no reason for me to use it outside of a shitmon team.
>Seviper
Best shiny imo, shit stats, good moves, gale fangs when?

>>34888273
>Hydreigon
Isn't it RU? Not that bad.

To name a few. Competitive battling is zero fun for me because nearly all of my Pokemon are utter shit unless I build my whole team around them. I get lucky a few times since my #1 favorite is Mawile, but even then, she got banned in Gen 6 and prior to that, I spent gens 3 and 4 trying to use her as a fucking baton passer. I also really like Mareanie, and thus, Toxapex, so I had some success using Silvally, M-Mawile and Toxapex in Battle Spot singles, but there are so many Mega Metagrosses, Chomps and Cloysters that I got worn out and stopped.
How do people use Pokemon they don't like? I don't get any enjoyment out of that.

I cannot deny it, but if it helps, in random battles it can become a poor man's sigilyph by spamming defend and heal order. You just have to find an opponent with no SR setter, no toxic user, no rock/fire STAB, and with at least one mon slower than 114 speed that is either locked into EQ or just has EQ as only attacking move. Hard, but when it works, it really fucking works.

I like using underused/weird/gimmicky sets and most of them don't work on my favourites.

I'd rather just not play at that point. I'm so fucking sick of BST handicapping every pokemon that isn't a legendary or Garchomp

I love lurantis. but I am extremely pissed off it didn't just have chlorophyll instead, and has a very similar stat distribution to tsareena and incineroar. chlororphyll and solar blade would have been a very neat combo aside from a contrary set. Not only is leaf guard shit, but it makes the gift totem mostly useless. I love running trick room but even then it just is okay to bad

Hydreigon is a real shitmon though. So is Flygon now too, apparently. And probably Vaporeon but she's been doing good work for me so far.

He's fun to use in PU with prankster, calm mind, will-o-wisp, recover, and dark pulse, but even then that's kind of a meme set.

But I usually pack Thunderbolt. It usually takes care of all Flying and Water types in game.

I like them all because they're either really pretty or they used to be great at battling. I really like Silvally in particular though because I have a soft spot for characters with experimentation backstories
