>you remembered them enough to name drop them
Shitty logic. Especially in the case of Pokemon, where none of the original 151 are particularly obscure.

Are you dumb?? Lorelei and Pryce have them on their team
They're still insanely forgettable, because they're just generic animals. At least Goldeen has the anime and Smash.

The last time you thought about sandshrew, Obama was still the president.
No, I was going to use Sandshrew in my last Yellow playthrough before changing my mind. Plus, there's that cool Sandshrew in the anime from the OG series.
came here to say this, forgot they existed until i saw someone mention dewgong like a week ago. really could use an evolution or something because it has basically nothing going for it.

This, always forget them until these threads come around
Are you dumb?? Lorelei and Pryce have them on their team
Ugh don't remind me. Why on earth did they think putting cartoon human teeth in the claws was a good idea? Is it supposed to be a reference to dentures since it also has an old man beard (made of spit)? So gross.
god why are you fuckers still debating this? here's the hard data
this test had been taken tens of thousands of times. exeggcute/gutor and lickitung(and kangaskhan) are too hard to spell even with trial and error so their data is not reliable which leaves kingler as the undisputed most forgettable gen 1 pokemon.
Have you really never taken the sporcle quiz? Once they spell it venasaur and see it doesn't accept they are going try out other ways like venosaur until they get it right.
The point is that even with lots of trial and error something like exeggcute and lickitung it can be very hard to get right so at some point you just move on to something else even if you don't get it as the clock is ticking
Yeah some of them are definitely skewed by being difficult to spell. I'm pretty sure every time I took that challenge I ended up cheating just to look up the exact spelling of Exeggutor. Dropping the C from Exeggcute throws me off every time.

Is it not possible that lickitung is both forgettable and hard to spell? It is, after all, a 1-stage (initially) normal-type shitmon with no gimmicks.
Nothing mentioned ITT can be the most forgettable, because you still remembered it for this thread. Forgettability is a memorable trait, paradoxically.
To be fair, a lot of "forgettable" mons are probably just mons that people only remember when they actually look at Pokedex lists
Like, some are so "forgettable" that they always pop into your mind first like Quilfish, but every so often I'm genuinely surprised at some that I just really forget existed without a list
My submission would be Golduck. >not often seen in the wild >common type, no compelling reason to have one >overshadowed by its prevo in media (anime) >doesn't look much like its prevo >500 BST but flat stat dstribution >awkward movepool with psychic tossed in
I second this. Golduck is straight up meh. It can't even learn pshyic via tm(untill gen 4)and has to be learned as an egg move. Seems ok as a water version of nidoking with decent coverage for a mixed attacker. Double fuck firered/leafgreen for making him a version exclusive while they gave both water/psychic types to leafgreen, I will never understand.
I will be filling this list out to find out which mon is truly the most forgettable
Lickitung automatically wins "not the most forgettable" thanks to this thread. Seel and Dewgong too.
I have now found the official most forgettable Kanto Pokemon according to me
It's Drowzee, from a line that has received absolutely zero attention over the years, is outclassed by multiple other families in its very own generation, and its line's entire legacy is carried on the back of fetish porn. Congratulations to the most forgettable Gen I Pokemon of all time
Dewgong is memetically cucked by the game giving you a Lapras before you can even access it, which is a near-universal upgrade from it, so I wouldn't say it's forgettable from that alone
Dewgong isn't forgettable because it's related to Seel and Seel is so forgettable it loops back around to being memorable
It's like how Finneon / Lumineon is always a very easy Sinnoh Pokemon to name because they're so mediocre and lackluster they loop back around to being memorable
Weepinbell's counterpart, Gloom, is far from being forgettable because it has a very distinct look from Vileplume and Oddish. It also had a whole episode dedicated to it, on top of being one of Erika's mons.
Weepinbell only had a couple of appearances and James got Victreebel as a Victreebel.
Mime has a billion anime appearances, hell it was a mainstay in the last Ashnime season. Everyone jokes about it fucking Ash mom as well so it even has meme status. Aside from that it has the detective Pikachu scene that every normie loves.
>another thread of people arguing how much they forgot something
When are you retards going to realize that “forgettable” is a stupid buzzword and not a real metric to judge anything?
You'd never think any gen 1 pokemon was forgettable if you were actually around during gen 1 and having your brain programmed by the cartoon and trading cards and merch
It's not forgettable because it's pink and silly with it's tongue sticking out plus it's evolution literally turns it into a fat adult baby making it extremely erotic. It's the standard for the ABDL community. Nice try though
After buying some 151 cards and giving all of gen 1 a close look after years of being away from Pokemon I gotta say there are a lot of shit Pokemon in gen 1 that are only held up by nostalgia. Gen 2 mons are cooler overall.
Most forgettable Gen 1 mons are Seel and Dewgong.
This
Lazy cartoon animals are worse
You remembered it enough to make a thread about it.
What even was the point of making it?
again, you remembered them enough to name drop them
No no, its not about what I remembered. Anime writers forgot all about him when writing his loss to a fire starter
>you remembered them enough to name drop them

Sandslash is one of the better Gen 1 monsters for a playthrough, anon.

This, always forget them until these threads come around

gen 1 was almost 30 fucking years ago, nobody remembers that
a bit dramatic, it's only been 25 years since RBY came out to the rest of world
>people don't replay games
Actual brainlet, not to mention that there is also FRLG and LGPE
And? You one-shot those worthlessless fucks and then they send out a pokemon that leaves an actual impression right after.
absolutely not. they are constantly mentioned. especially because they are taken as bad g1 design examples 100% of the time. the op shitmon not.
ABSOLUTELY FALSE
Dewgong is the first pokemon of the first Elite Four battle in the series from Lorelei
That's not forgettable in the slightest
Begone Zoomoid
Yup
That's not a rhydon
factually incorrect
Best game only beaten by the harden game.
IRRASHAI
Was actually one of my faves, shame he was useless and they butchered him with his evo
is lickilicky even good? it'll probably evolve again someday honestly.
I used him in BDSP and no he's shit. Still better than Bastiodon though, that thing was a letdown.
The original use was to blow yourself up in doubles, but then Explosion got nerfed.
Tangela does not feel it's from Gen 1
it had such an amazing move pool but unfathomably trash stats for it's debut gen
Was actually thinking of using him in my SS run but you can’t get him for ages.
Transfer an egg from another game, or just play pokemmo.
That's not tangela
Exeggcute/exeggutor and lickitung are only at the very bottom because they are a nightmare to spell correctly
The real most forgetable pokemon is Kingler
>b-b-but muh Ash's Kingler
cope
Forgot Ash ever had a kingler
how? it did amazing in the first pokemon league tournament
To be fair it's been twenty four years or so since I last watched the show
I still clearly remember when Ash caught it as a Krabby and how puny it was compared to the one Gary caught.
>The real most forgetable pokemon is Kingler
Reminder that it very recently got a gimmick form that even TPC completely forgot about
Ugh don't remind me. Why on earth did they think putting cartoon human teeth in the claws was a good idea? Is it supposed to be a reference to dentures since it also has an old man beard (made of spit)? So gross.

by that logic venusaur should be a lot lower since every other person spells it venasaur
Have you really never taken the sporcle quiz? Once they spell it venasaur and see it doesn't accept they are going try out other ways like venosaur until they get it right.
The point is that even with lots of trial and error something like exeggcute and lickitung it can be very hard to get right so at some point you just move on to something else even if you don't get it as the clock is ticking
no, I have no fucking clue what that shit is and I hope it's not normal to know
have fun

I didn't click on it
Yeah some of them are definitely skewed by being difficult to spell. I'm pretty sure every time I took that challenge I ended up cheating just to look up the exact spelling of Exeggutor. Dropping the C from Exeggcute throws me off every time.
Eggseggutor*
>Slowpoke that low when it's part of the main plot of GSC
Convinced this is skewed by people spelling it "Slopoke".
Is it not possible that lickitung is both forgettable and hard to spell? It is, after all, a 1-stage (initially) normal-type shitmon with no gimmicks.
That's not Joshua.

The "least hated pokemon on /vp/" threads are a good test, the winner is most likely really forgettable
why is anorith the most forgotten? it's a fossil, some people must've used it
it's not about what I've forgotten, it's about what others have, particularly people who work on the game/anime
You claim to speak for them and not yourself? Odd.
bro suck on my 2 inch chode. get a grip
You sure you don't have another person's chode for me to suck?
are you saying it's impossible to observe another individual forgetting something?
No Pokémon is forgotten because being in a stupidly huge franchise makes even bit roles have impact.
My submission would be Golduck.
>not often seen in the wild
>common type, no compelling reason to have one
>overshadowed by its prevo in media (anime)
>doesn't look much like its prevo
>500 BST but flat stat dstribution
>awkward movepool with psychic tossed in
I second this. Golduck is straight up meh. It can't even learn pshyic via tm(untill gen 4)and has to be learned as an egg move. Seems ok as a water version of nidoking with decent coverage for a mixed attacker. Double fuck firered/leafgreen for making him a version exclusive while they gave both water/psychic types to leafgreen, I will never understand.
I always thought these dudes were psychic/water type.
and it never got mega/gigantamax/evolution or anything of the sort
What? Irrelevant.
You watch the nu-anime? Lol how embarassing.
Yes, why wouldn't they be in a game? Oh you play the new minimum-effort schlock, lol.
this dude is literally in the current airing anime in the same place jessie's arbok was lol
Psyduck and Golduck are in every gen, can't be Golduck.
It's the evolution of a popular mon, so you will inevitably remember it when you remember Psyduck. Otherwise, I would agree with you.
The most forgettable gen 1 line imo is Horsea, followed by Shellder.
>Lickitung
>forgettable
EBI CHO

drowzee is not more forgettable than fucking dewgong bro
Dewgong is memetically cucked by the game giving you a Lapras before you can even access it, which is a near-universal upgrade from it, so I wouldn't say it's forgettable from that alone
you can get a dewgong before lapras pretty easily, RBY is a very nonlinear game after the second gym badge.
Dewgong isn't forgettable because it's related to Seel and Seel is so forgettable it loops back around to being memorable
It's like how Finneon / Lumineon is always a very easy Sinnoh Pokemon to name because they're so mediocre and lackluster they loop back around to being memorable
the only memory i have related to him is the i play pokemon go everyday kid. l m f a o
How the fuck is Lickitung the most forgeable? It was one of Jessie's mons for crying out loud.
It's Weepinbell. Most people only remember Bellsprout from that episode where one almost sweeped Ash and Victrebell because of James owning one.
Bellsprout and Victreebel legit look like a 2-stage species.
Weepinbell's counterpart, Gloom, is far from being forgettable because it has a very distinct look from Vileplume and Oddish. It also had a whole episode dedicated to it, on top of being one of Erika's mons.
Weepinbell only had a couple of appearances and James got Victreebel as a Victreebel.
Weepinbell has the episode where James trades his Victreebell for one, so it can't be the most forgettable.
I love Venomoth and use it with QD whenever I can, but I feel like that would be the answer for most people.
That's Pinsir.
>found in only 1 hidden spot
>shitmon
>no evolution (in that gen)
>doesn't look cool
Nobody knows this thing exists.
Same argument could be made for Mr. Mime. But rarity is a distinct feature for this mon and he has a unique design.
Mime has a billion anime appearances, hell it was a mainstay in the last Ashnime season. Everyone jokes about it fucking Ash mom as well so it even has meme status. Aside from that it has the detective Pikachu scene that every normie loves.
No, it will always be memorable for being the one to get the harshest BST nerf going from Gen 1 to Gen 2. It lost like around 120 fucking points
That's fucked man. Why did they do Tangela so dirty?
>another thread of people arguing how much they forgot something
When are you retards going to realize that “forgettable” is a stupid buzzword and not a real metric to judge anything?
You'd never think any gen 1 pokemon was forgettable if you were actually around during gen 1 and having your brain programmed by the cartoon and trading cards and merch
if he's forgotten why he's the only pokemon in the most famous pokemon song?
krabby and kingler were the only gen 1 pokemon i missed on the pokemon quiz
Jesse had one briefly in the anime and it had an evolution in gen 4? And had a lot of jokes going for it with its tongue. So no, it's not.
fish
She's in smash.
Where
It's not forgettable because it's pink and silly with it's tongue sticking out plus it's evolution literally turns it into a fat adult baby making it extremely erotic. It's the standard for the ABDL community. Nice try though
doduo is the most forggetable
gen 1 doesnt have any forgetable pokemon
After buying some 151 cards and giving all of gen 1 a close look after years of being away from Pokemon I gotta say there are a lot of shit Pokemon in gen 1 that are only held up by nostalgia. Gen 2 mons are cooler overall.
