Evolution is a cornerstone of the Pokémon franchise, however not all Pokémon share in this and some of them remain unchanged their entire lives. Some of these non-evolving Pokémon are great; however others are a bit of a let down (which is a huge understatement) so which ones of these standalone creatures are the best or worst of the lot? Let's find out!

Unfortunately not, I guess. Hawlucha is such a cool Pokemon, and is the only Pokemon to have a move that is "Dual-Type", as in, dealing super-effective damage to two sets of types. I may be wrong, but Flying Press is the move that can deal the most super-effective damage in one form (not counting hidden power, judgement, etc.). On the flip side, while it deals super-effective damage to 12 of the 18 types, it is resisted by 7 others, and doesn't deal any damage to Ghosts. But I would say that is a pretty good trade-off.

Dunsparce has tiny wings because the Tsuchinoko (the fat chupacabra of Japan that it is based on) was believed to be able to jump twice in the air. Hah, Japan DID invent the double-jump. The drill is because, well, it's a friggin snake. They burrow. Also, I like to believe that Stonejourner uses magnetism inside of its stone main body to always keep its limbs in a close radius. No matter if the legs can disconnect, they are always connected via magnetism.

I also disagree with Lapras being labeled the best. It's funny, he talked bad about Basculin for not having anything standout in it's stats (even though it's attack and speed are higher than the rest), but yet praised Lapras for having well-rounded stats, even though not a single one of those stats is even good by today's standards. It's not exactly a powerhouse of a Pokemon, and it hasn't been for several generations now, not to mention the fact that it being an ice type is considered to be a bad thing by most, so that holds it back noticeably as well.

At some point, you'll chuck it out expecting very little of it and then see the lil' punk just start wrecking face. It's fast enough to outpace most in-game enemies and does irresponsibly high damage for something that's only using HM moves. Give the fish a chance and it'll carry more than just you.

I would love a gen 5 remake that adds some evolutions to its own pokemon, I like the idea of different Basculins with different abilities for both version, but if it had an evolution it could be amazing, like if the evolutions were similar but not the same but still being the same species that could be really nice PD: I expected you to talk bad about my fav 1 stage pokemon, Sigilyph, but you didn't. That was surprising if you ask me.

Dunsparce has a pretty funny lockdown type of set with Glare and Headbutt spam. You can get a pretty high chance of the enemy not being able to do anything with a combination of paralysis from Glare and headbutt flinching with Dunsparce's ability Serene Grace. Its cheesy but can work.

Until Corvinight came into existence, Skarmory was a simngles GOD. Utility and bulk, with a bit of offensive set up with curse and swords dance for something unusual, too! Even after the new bird became a new staple, Skarm still is doing incredible, pretty sure it instantly dominated and got banned from UU, and can still function really well in OU, just for the first time it has real competition.

Skarmory is mainly good defensively, and has been a great Pokemon in competitive play literally ever since it was first introduced. And while it MAY get access to swords dance, the idea of it being good offensively is honestly laughable due to it's lacking attack and speed stats

At 7:30 (it's a few seconds later, but I wanted to include context), I'm sure you meant to use the term "coincidentally" instead of "ironically." It would have been ironic if Mimikyu had been deemed unviable and unloved by the fanbase since this would have been contrary to its goal of being loved. It's not a major mistake, but it did grab my attention. Awesome video, as per usual, by the way! 😁

First time through black I had a basculin for most of the run. I have never understood all the hate it gets, considering its actually a pretty decent water type. Sure its not super powerful like some, but it has great abilities and reliable stats and if you just need a committed water type coverage/surfer, he's perfectly adequate. (Obviously Tirtouga is better, but if you made the mistake like me of choosing Archeops, then Basculin will do you just fine)

Poor Dunsparce; I so wish Drampa had been an evolution for it. Have you seen Hoops and Hip Hop's "Pokemon Cardinal" series? He gave Dunsparce a Ground/Flying-type evolution that's pretty cool. Also, I completely agree with all of your other rankings (you put my favorite Water-type at #1 best), although I might have tried to fit Aerodactyl in there somewhere. (Why isn't Pincurchin an Electric/Water type?) I just wish Mimikyu had some variations where it took on the disguises of other cute, lovable Pokemon.

Not be a math nerd. But the amount of pokemon does not increase exponentially. That would mean that it would grow by a certain factor over a certain measure of time. Dubbel every year, or increase by 50% every 2 months etc. Every generation a number of pokemon are added, and while the exact number of added pokemon varies from game to game, the growth would still resemble lineair the best.
