The most useless item

foxyman1167

From Zero To Hero
Lets see, Destiny Knot, Lagging Tail, Iron Ball, Icy Rock, and Smooth Rock. They are useless mainly because Sandstorm and Hail have Pokemon with abilities that make permanent weather, so why bother trying to lengthen a permanent weather condition?

The Anti-Hero
revives/max revives/all potions/full heals/full restores/medicine in general

real men don't need that stuff :mad:
 

Noheart

The Abysswalker
Destiny Knot, since no one uses Attract that much anymore anyways.
 
Old Gateau and Destiny Knot pretty much..

Swing the bat
Items like such as the lagging tail and the iron ball seem pretty useless at first, but when you use them strategically you can see they help.
Iron Ball+Fling=very strong move
Plus, I'm not sure if this is true if not please correct me, Buneary with Klutz won't show the effects of Iron Ball and Lagging tail make a useful technique if you use trick and then the other pokemon becomes slower.
I honestly have to say that the most useless item has got to be the mails. I mean, does anybody even use them?

Mails are really useless,I wonder why GF incorporated them into the game.

The mail thing was introduced in 2nd gen (original G/S), and the main function was delivering mail for NPCs in the game. (i.e. the guy with shuckle)

But I've always found it a bit useless outside of quests.

Old Gateau.very exclusive but useless(use lava cookie,it's cheap)
 
Destiny Knot. Honestly, I don't see anyone using it, since not that many people use Attract besides in-game trainers. Plus, you get it after the end of the Elite Four, so by then you've battle pretty much every trainer that uses Attract >.>

EDIT: lol, three posters in a row have the same avatar [/random]

Berries

Eh, mostly the berries that are only useful for poffins. What use is that!?

berries make poffins and poffins make high scores with the contests, if you don't have poffins you can't win contests which is one of the sidequests.

plus add the fact that all berries have effects like healing status or slightly making stats higher, it even clears ut EV's if needed which is useful while EV training.
