Are any of the regional forms actually worse than their originals? I can only think of galarian weezing, which I thought was better regarded than weezing, but people aren't using it.

The vast majority of the time, no. The entire point of regionals is to replace the original because Game Freak hates/regrets it and wnats everyone else to hate it too, so they make a regional form to outshine it. H. Avalugg is the only example of a regional maybe being worse, and that seems to be a fluke caused by Ice and Rock being garbage types defensively

I was personally never a fan of Regional Forms that were the same type as the original Pokemon but with an extra typing or mono-type Mons having Regional forms with two typings because it felt like they really were trying to push replacements to the original

Anyway most Regional forms that are worse than the originals tend to be shittermons to begin with. Raticate is the big example that comes to mind

Hisuian Avalugg is so strange. I dig the concept of it being a glacier carving the land, but what the fuck is the deal with those mandibles? When I first saw it, it made perfect sense that its jaw was a huge plow. But then I saw it animated. Then I saw how small an alpha was compared to other alphas. What the fuck.

G. Weezing is good by proxy as it gave original Weezing it's signature ability as well.

It was one that shows that evolution in Pokemon really exists. Avalugg became full ice, to protect itself better OR They died off because the rock part was too much.

AlolaSlash is actually better now that snow gives Ice types a free Defense increase.

Most of them don’t even compete with each other. Torkoal did more damage to Ninetales than Alolan Ninetales did.

All of them. Literally. Especially Meowth. If you can't come up with a new Pokémon, don't bother "tweaking" an old one.

design wise, almost all of them
>let's slap a green beard and a top hat on weezing!
regional variants were a mistake
facial hair mons are ugly
gamefreak loves tarnishing all the old designs
