Is it the worst Gen I Pokemon? Competitively is a joke, design is uninspired and pretty bland in general.

Nigger you'd better delet that shit right now. Parasect is easily one of my favorite Gen I designs which is why I really hate how it sucks both in-game and competitively. I really want to use that thing but it just sucks so much. What a cruel fate for such a cool Mon.

Parasect at least a niche in doubles. Rage Powder, Spore and with Dry Skin you can even use it on rain teams. He's not the best but not even close to the worst.

It's closer to "garuda" than "gold" in japanese. It's probably why iGolduck's head has horns instead of a bowl despite being based on a kappa as well.

He isn't really right because that's a special event Munchlax that lasted only for a while. But if you have it yeah it shits on Parasect through and through.

But more importantly, source? Typo doesn't bring up anything.
