Thought on this archetype?
I feel like they are a waste of dex.

my thoughts on the "archetype" archetype is that it's a shitty forced meme

With how angry some fans get over small dex numbers I feel inclined to be happy with them regardless of bad they are since it still means another new pokemon too mess around with.
I still hate Watchog though.

Some of these are treasured members of a team during at least part of some peoples' runs.

Remember, not every Pokemon is ones of your favorites, but everyone Pokemon is someone's favorite.

They're my favourite part of every Dex and I always look forward to the next one. As a group I enjoy them even more. I love them all so fucking much.

kinda wish we got to see another one that isn't brown. weird to start with one that's purple and then exclusively stick to brown plus beige/cream

Hate them and the birds/cocoon bug/pikaclone as well, nothing but dex bloat that stifles creativity because the designers are Under Obligation to shit one out rather than do something interesting

I like a lot of them, and they're usually pretty useful as well.

Mon that is deliberately designed as an early game shitter that falls behind in usefulness later and as such is doomed to be dead weight in lategame/battles against other players

I used Rattata for the first time in 25 years on my most recent playthrough of FR and it was still pulling its weight up to Koga. Pretty cool mon.

I don't dislike them but I see why people would. They are more or less all the same, a decently cute dull coloured critter that evolves into an ugly or goofy bigger rodent and none of them aside from maybe Diggersby has any competetive use. They should take a page out of the birds book and make them have cooler secondary typings, better colours, cooler or prettier designs and make them more competetively usefull instead of using the exact same template over and over.

Reminder that these archetype should be called "early route mammal" considering half of the entries aren't even rodents,
Gen1 - Rodent
Gen2 - Weasel
Gen3 - Canine
Gen4 - Rodent
Gen5 - Rodent
Gen6 - Lagomorph
Gen7 - Weasel
Gen8 - Rodent

sure but Diggersby, Greedent, Linoone and Bibarel can all carry their weight in various PvP situations which is impressive considering their low base stats.
Raticate falls short but is fine, Furret, A-Raticate and Watchog are terrible.

hi! welcome to terminology outside of the pokemon fandom, pokemon is the franchise that uses archetypes the most, like "the bird", "the starters", "the pseudo legendary",

>>47598476
Literally one of my favorites, the pretty much stanrdard "it hits as hard as you raise it, without getting OP", I despise easy games so using one of these suckers its always a pretty chill ride, and they're actually stronger than one would think anyways.

Furret love btw.

Shit trash box fodder garbage fuckface losers, most of the time.

If a pokemon doesn't do something at least vaguely unique, then there is no point to it, Raticate can go die, there are a million Guts users better than it. Gluttony Belly Drum Linoone, Moody Bibarel, Huge Power Rabbit and Stakeout/Adaptability Gumshoos at least do *something* with their respective abilities. It may be a shitty niche but at least it's something. Pokemon like Furret are just bait for people who like the design and Watchog and Raticate have faces only a mother could love, they are the kind of pokemon you could cut from the dex without any problems.
