Most overated pokemon

Yes, I like Snubbull
I say Heracross. It's a good Pokemon, but I just don't think any current bug Pokemon have the ability to be on one's best team. of course... I just started talking to more advanced Pokemon players a few days ago. *had no idea Sword's Dance was good*

I say Eevee and it's evolutions, I mean have you see it get praised everywhere.
 
Well, I used to think Umbreon was hugely overrated and I still do think it is but not as much. Sneasel isn't really overrated IMO.

Charizard sorta too...there are better Fire-types out there too.

Comes to warn you...
Pinsir's not that bad, Jolteon and Espeon are Okay, but the other Eeveelutions are definetly overrated.

Scizor is quite overrated, more than Scyther is.

The Most overrated pokemon I'd say is Typhlosion.

Blastoise Master, name me some Fire-types better than Charizard...It's better than Moltres, for sure...
 
Pinsir, Charizard, Ninetales, Weavile, Distoppik, Absol, Dragonite, Kingdra, Shuckle, Umbreon, Sneasel, Arcanine, Articuno perhaps.

Ask if you don't know why I listed one of those Pokémon.

Vaporeon is very good. It's kinda like Suicune, but different. Umbreon isn't any good ingame and is hard to use competitively, so I'll give you that one. No one give gives a care about Flareon anyway. =/

Scizor is quite overrated, more than Scyther is.

Uh, no. Scizor is actually quite good because it has one weakness and resists Sandstorm. It's the only Endure/Reversaler usable in OU for that reason. It also makes a handy Baton Passer because it gets Swords Dance, Agility, Silver Wind, and even Iron Defense. Morning Sun Scizor is also sexy. 8)

The Most overrated pokemon I'd say is Typhlosion.

Typhlosion has quite a fanbase, but I don't think anyone gives it that much undue credit. Everyone knows it's second to Blaziken.

Blastoise Master, name me some Fire-types better than Charizard...It's better than Moltres, for sure...

Moltres is probably the most underrated thing ever.

However, Charizard does get a lot of undeserved hate nowadays IMO. Bellyzard is actually quite usable.

I don't see how Pinsir could possibly be overrated seeing how NO ONE USES IT. Everyone loves Pinsir, but we all know that not getting Megahorn is its downfall.

And lol at Heracross being overrated.

Among ubers, I'd have to say that Latios and Latias are overrated. They can be powerful, but only after a few Calm Minds. Latios lacks the defenses to really Calm Mind effectively (unless it's lucky), while Latias lacks the power to do anything until she Calm Minds. They both need to Recover just about every other turn, and when they finally can attack, what can they use against other ubers? Thunder on Kyogre that Mewtwo does better, and Dragon Claw on everything else. STABed Dragon Claw is their only saving grace. They wouldn't be uber without the Soul Dew anyway.

EDIT: How is Starmie overrated? It makes a pretty good Suicune and Salamence counter, which is always welcome. Rapid Spin Starmie is a bit silly IMO though.

Leaving SPPF! G'bye!
Mew!!! Its stats are LOWER than Mewtwos!!! But the fact that it can learn all TMs and HMs is good. Heh, i should not say anything, i dont have any UBERs. To comment the others: Zinimi, im planning to have Heracross in my next sapphire team, and i hope its not too overrated. Danburite, i had a pikachu in my last leafgreen team, and although it can learn thunder and has good speed it is VERY easy to knock out and not a very good fighter. Gyarados is UNDERRATED!! I have one and its GREAT!
I know a pretty good hitmonchan too, powerful and UBERLY easy-trained!
;385; Thats it. ;385;

Sneasel? Starmie? Scizor? Overrated? I think this needs a lot of explaining as it makes no bloody sense at all. Starmie is the special sweeping Deathstar that can own a lot of Pokemon, Scizor is better than Scyther is every way possible and Sneasel is just... Sneasel. A humble UU Pokemon that I obsess over. Although I did get one person say that Sneasel is overrated because of me, dammit that made me laugh out loud.

On topic, I could say Ludicolo and Fearow out of my hatred for them but I can't because they aren't overrated. A bit like how every Pokemon isn't overrated. Hatred and overratedness are two different things. *shrug*

Breloom, Ludicolo, Salamence, Tyranitar, Metagross, Milotic, Snorlax, Gengar, Dusclops, Swampert, Miltank, Steelix, Charizard, Gyarados, etc. These are overrated.
