i think its supposed to be a giant ground sloth. sloths are lazy, good swimmers, and eat a lot. that sounds like snorlax. before you say ''why isn't it a fossil pokemon''. well lapras is clearly a plesiosaur but its not a fossil either.
Klefki never really bothered me. I guess because it is a trolly pokemon in competitive battle that the silly design fits. Also it is a really fucking cute set of keys.
A note to all of the "intimate object" pokemon like klefki, electrode ect.: The Japanese have a legend that any object (such as an umbrella, cooking pot ect.) that reaches 100 years of age is granted a soul, and with it, magic powers. these objects hold memories of their past and if you treated them well essentially become powerful good luck charms, whereas if you mistreated the objects, they would become spiteful and bring curses upon you. Also, klefki isn't a set of keys, it just stole a bunch of keys. it pretends to be a key ring to steal things from people.
*sits down with purugly and watches her smile* *strokes her slowly watches her smile and kisses her forehead* I will still like you no matter what purugly, and don't worry I know your not garbarge like garbodor's stats
What's so bad about eyeless jack? At least he doesn't kill his own family! And I hate ticci because killing your own family isn't right and I never read his creepypasta and I date others to make them happy but I accidently start to really love them....
Yes. Klefki's design is... Somewhat disappointing... Butt! Competitively speaking... Prankster, Dual Screen, T-Wave and Spikes. Not satisfied? Well, I can't help you then.
***** I only do competitive battling. If I find a fitting nickname for a Pokémon and it's useful I'll rock out with it. Even if that means bringing a key chain to fight a dragon.
+KurratRichard Fairies destroy Megamence! Of course, I'd spam Play Rough! If he hadn't such bad defenses I'd probably use it more often. Belly Drum, Sitrus Berry and Unburden make up for a nice combination but it has bad defenses, attack and speed. Actually kinda like it's design. It always makes me laugh.
those were made to say hey look you found an item , naw it was actually just a look alike monster now you have to fight it you know how they have the trick monsters and crap in RPGs
I hated Klefki at first, but then I went on to love it when it knocked Yveltal's health real down low so I could capture it with only Super Ball instead of wasting my pokeball.
When I first saw Klefki I laughed. And I don't mean I chuckled a bit, I was absolutely rolling around on the floor crying from laughter. If it's meant as some sort of joke, well it worked on me at least, what's next? A wardrobe Pokemon?
And what qualifies as "Good designs"? Only being based off an animal? If that's the case, then you clearly don't know what good design are. Nothing in Pokemon says there can only be animal based Pokemon. Items can be Pokemon as well. What else must Klefki look like to be qualify as "Good design" to you?
***** It doesn't have to be based off an animal! Look at Lucario, Ludicolo, Abomnasnow, Arceus, Mewtwo and many more, JUST DON'T BASE THEM OFF INANIMATE OBJECTS!!!
the worst designs are usually based off of inanimate objects. i would like to think of pokemon as creatures that could exist as a natural part of that world but you cant tell me that a fucking set of keys is an animal. or a garbage bag for that matter. such lazy designs
You have that flipped. The inanimate object Pokemon are actually the most creative ones and can serve as actual monsters. Let's test this: "Run for your life it's a bird monster!!!!" Vs "Run for your life it's a garbage monster!!!" Yeah...
Chris Green Well i dont think Klefki is ment to be scary and it "jiggling its keys to warn or scare people is ment to be cute like a chihuahua barking at a bigger dog trying to be tough but yea hows this for a simular comparison : aww look at the cute lil Dog" vs " aww look at the cute Fairy who collects keys "
Chris Green Oh my god! ONE Pokemon proves your point O-O I guess I'm wrong Sarcasm aside, the object Pokemon are more creative than the normal animals that they've made. They've made great animal Pokemon that can actually be monstrous like Clawtizer, Luxray, Arcanine, etc. And they've also made some badass object Pokemon like Chandelure, Cofagrigus, and Magnezone.
Marix2Rinku well i was really trying to make a counter argument to marco smith's comment. i think most pokemon arent really supposed to be "monsters", more like animals. i actually thought his "test" for inanimate object based pokemon vs animal based pokemon was pretty irrelevant.
I always kind of liked Klefki just BECAUSE of how ridiculous the design is. I mean, the Pokedex entry pretty much solidifies the idea that this is basically just a joke design that some guy at Gamefreak didn't think anyone would take seriously - but they did. And I love them for that.
The inanimate object pokemon are the best IMO. People bitch and say that they're bad because of what they're based on. I mean seriously, the designers know what their doing and I know that you can choose to like them or not but seriously...you're saying that a trash or ice cream monster are shitty and lazy...but coloring a rat purple is creative? Seriously? Plus the objects coming to life is in Japanese mythology, so unless you know about that...ugh...
And a person can't defend all the bad gen 1 pokémon by saying that "the graphics were limited", because there's a lot of good designs in the Gen 1. A lot of people just bitch around the new designs for no reason other than "They're different". Klefki is a lot like a Sudowoodo, but, IMO, had way more thought put into it (not that Sudowoodo wasn't thought). And something I just hate is when people say things like "they are running out of ideas", as if them would come up with more and better ideas than the designers at Game Freak. I'm actually surprised how they still have a lot of good ideas after more than 600 pokémon... I liked almost all the Gen 6 designs! (Except for Aromatisse... I still don't know what that thing was supposed to be)
Matheus Moura Thank you! I feel the same way. I hate that Pokemon like Trubbish, Vanillite, Klink, or Klefki are constantly hated and targeted and then everyone says that they're running out of ideas...even though there are other awesome Pokemon in the SAME GEN Then here's another thing: Stereotypical haters: Gen 5 sucks, it has a trash bag, gears, and an ice cream cone. Worst gen EVER!" Person with common sense: If you hate gen 5 for having those designs...shouldn't you hate Grimer, Exeggcute, Ditto, Magnemite, and Voltorb. Haters: No! Everyone knows Gen 1 is the best gen with the best designs, all these new ones are shit. Common sense guy; So...you hate trash bags, ice cream, and gears...but love eggs with faces, magnets with eyes, blobs, balls, and sludge? Hater: All those are better than Gen 5! Common sense: ...Hypocrite
Yeah! Everyone has their favorite and least favorite gens, but saying that a Gen is bad because of two or three pokémon that you dislike, is like saying that a person is bad just because she has an eye with a color you dislike. Those people are dumb, and completely nostalgia blinded. Btw, my least favorite gen, in regards of pokémon design, is gen 4. But you don't see me hatin the whole gen just because I hate Lickilicky's design '-'
Marco Smith I have to admit. I LOVE ALL Pokémon. There may be some stupid designs, but ALL OF THEM have a charm for me. (remember, that's just my opinion)
And I love almost all pokémon, even the ones with stupid designs. But there are two or three that just... Gah, I can't like them. Lickilicky is one of them '-'
Yes, Klefki, the steel/fairy type, with 2 weaknesses (3 negated), 2 immunities, good stats, a good movepool, the ability to learn magnet rise (now only 1 weakness!), dragon-murdering skills, and a silly design to make your opponents underestimate you IS VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!
For me, Beedrill was actually my fav. bug type in the first gen, because it was practically the only thing that could fight against psychic types at the time. It had decent bug type moves, while butterfree new none. Parasect only had leech life. and the the programmers made a stupid mistake with the ghost moves not hitting psychic pokemon
Klefki is actually really original. Has there been a Key Pokemon? No, so he's orignal. If anything, Fennekin and Zorua are unoriginal, since there has already been a fox Pokemon. Not that they are bad, but my point is that people really don't know what they mean by saying "Unoriginal".
Peter Kolev Says that to the guy who can't even put a period in his sentences. And it's "is". Not "are". It's hard to take an insult seriously when you make simple grammar mistakes.
Anyway, I like all Pokémon to be honest. Even when I don't personally like the design I can usually understand the references which are good enough for me because story is the most important thing in a game. And for art the story is the reference. My only issue was with Meditite and Medicham. Before this Gen, they're personally the only ones I'd have deleted if given a chance to delete any one family but I really like Mega Medicham so I can't particularly fault them anymore. Except the individual DERP the Medicham who cost me 2 other Pokémon in my last Pearl Nuzlocke because it decided crashing into a wall to commit suicide would be more fun than hitting the opponent with High Jump Kick. Him specifically I'll hate forever.
I can agree with Beedrill. It's a glass cannon, minus the cannon. I never really used either Probopass or Purugly, but I wasn't exactly disappointed by them. If a Pokémon isn't useful in the game, I don't care about the way it looks. That also goes for Beautifly, which I did use it very briefly in R/S. But unlike Butterfree, it didn't really give me a reason to keep it on my team, as it did NOT have the same moveset, learning Grass instead of Psychic moves. And the early game of Gen 3 was nowhere near short of actual Grass-types to use instead. However, I will never be disappointed by a Pokémon just for looking similar to another. As for Klefki though, what people keep saying about it really annoys me. It's ALWAYS: 1. "Its design is lazy and stupid!" Compared to many other Pokémon, yes. Compared to the likes of Digglet, Voltorb and Grimer, no! Klefki is far from the "laziest design ever". 2. "Those keys kill dragons!" *NO!* Just no! Klefki is NOT something you should ever send out to defeat a Dragon-type! Klefki is what competitive players call an "annoyer". Its purpose is not to deal damage, but to hinder the opponent's Pokémon. Its movepool is tailored to *lock* your opponents options, and it does pretty bad at about everything else. Also, Flygon, Garchomp and Mega Charizard X are very popular Dragon-types that can sweep Klefki like nothing. It may be a Fairy-type, but it's still a Steel-type as well. Ground and Fire moves make quick work of it. The one Pokémon I am really disappointed by is Mega Slowbro, by the way. It's the Dan Hibiki of Mega Evolutions.
I totally agree with you in the Beedril one. All those time and effort I've spent in grinding that Kakuna that only knows the move Harden is SO not worth it.
I don't think Klefki is dissapointing... in fact you just have to look at Grimer/Muk for a moment... and realize his design is just a deformed mass. The thing is that it's easy to say that the new pokemons are unoriginal... but never look back and see that we already had that kind of designs back at the first season.
So, here's something I never really understand: Ice cream pokemon, Garbage pokemon, Key pokemon: Not creative Fox pokemon, Tiger pokemon, Squirrel pokemon: Creative
I love the fact that I don't see Trubbish or Garbodor on this! Many people say those pokemon suck and are 'uncreative'. BUT NO ONE REMEMBERS KLING, KLANG, AND KLINGKLANG?
I feel that Glameow/Purugly is supposed to be one or two puns. 1. A pretty, feminine person who takes pride in her appearance but as it gets older, it just gets lazy and stops trying, thus she gains a massive tons of weight, it generally temperamental to pissed off, and slobby. lol 2. How cats love you when they're little but grow into bigger cats who seem to hate you lol (it's a stereotype of course). Yeah, Purugly is kinda disappointing for an evolution of a genuinely cool looking cat but at the same time, I can't help but laugh at the possible context behind it lol
Pangoro was the most disappointing Pokemon for me. Everyone swore it was going to be a staple in the competitive OU battle scene, but now it's NU, and I never see anyone using it.
Have you never played pokemon before? Klefkey with it's prankster ability makes it an amazing, if not the best support. Along with it's typing and move pool, I think it deserves some credit.
Your list had me chuckling quite a bit. :) I should mention that Klefki is notorious for something called "SkillKeys," which refers to Klefki using its Prankster ability to paralyze foes with Thunder Wave, confuse them with Swagger, then use Foul Play to deal more damage (since Swagger ups attack by 2).
CONGRATS ON 100,000 SUBS!!!!!!!!!! I've been waiting to say that ever since you had 64,000 subs. I LOVE your channel man. I want to make pokemon walkthroughs on my ipad, any advice?
Marco Smith only 69 pokemon, which mostly suck ass and are shitty designs, shit storyline, boring, I only played the story once, they focused on the graphics and were lazy about everything else. overall the worst IMO (In My Opinion) 3rd gen was the best imo
Timothy Berry -There were only 69 Pokemon because they had to make models for ALL of the other Pokemon as well. Plus, if they had more, people like you would bitch even more... -Gen 6 had some of the best design, along with the other Gens. (Even though Gen 1 had some of the worst) -Yes, wanting to kill everyone that's not like the evil team is such a terrible story...-_- -They were upgrading everything to actually look good on the 3DS, and the other aspects are still kinda good. -The only "disappointment" is the Exp Share being OP and the post game
Nah, it's Gen 4 and then Gen 1 being the overall worst games. Gen 4 had the worst music of the bunch (not necessarily bad music, but not fitting for Pokémon games) which after story is the most important thing and Gen 1 had basically no end game content despite having an interesting story and good music. Gen 2 is third best though only barely so. If it weren't for Black 2/White 2 Gen 5 would be the worst. Black and White's only saving grace was the sheer number of new Pokémon to collect. Black and White 2 are what made the Generation something that mattered. It fixed almost everything B/W did wrong. Which was almost everything. So overall it's 6, 5, 2, 3, 1, 4 from best to worst. Though I'm not sure what this has to do with the topic at hand since it's about Pokémon designs not the game design as a whole. **flags op for spam**
GullsAK All gens have bad things about them i would never say ones better maybe i can mention memories with one but for respect of the whole series i love and support all Gens
GullsAK See i really love Sinnoh, I don't understand why people fucking hate it with a fiery passion...then again I started out with it, first Pokemon game and all...(I didn't get into Pokemon until Diamond/Pearl/Platinum)
thunderclanliveson1 nah gen 4 had the best story for me and when i got to Mt. Coronet i was stuck for like 4 hours because i didnt know you could enter from one of the entrances. Oh, btw i liked Cyrus and his ambition the most. the only thing i didnt like is that the pokemon just didnt entertain me much
"Klefki is unoriginal" - Yes, because basing something off old folklore/religion about fairies is completely unoriginal. Damn you J.R.R Tolkien, creators of Dungeons and Dragons, and the countless books/movies/games inspired by you!
"BRILLIANT! You reject your own nose because it represents the glitter of commercialism. Why didn't I think of that? Cut, print, check the gate, moving on." - Badass movie my favourite at Christmas me and my siblings can recite every line!
Funny thing is that Klefki isn't even keys... Its the metal thing holding the keys. I fucking hate Klefki because of its super cheap Prankster, Swagger, Foul Play tactic. Its design is okay.
personally, I (unlike many of my friends) thought klefki was a cute concept and showed potential. too bad they didn't give it an evolution. it could've shown promise.
Klefki? Is klefki less original than magneton (three magnets stuck together) voltorb (a Pokeball) etc? As for disappointing, have you used it in battle? :p
Before, I caught a Weedle in HGSS, then it became a Beedrill. I regretted it because it was super duper useless, so I agree with you. Though Purugly is powerful because Mars kept defeating me with it in Pokémon Pearl. I was about to give up when my lvl. 9 Bidoof defeated it. I was like, "YES! And it was level 9!!! LOLZ!!!!!!!"
I've recently come to realize that Beedrill isn't as useless in Gen 1 as we all thought. Playing through the downloadable Red Version, I smashed through Erica, Koga, Sabrina, and Agatha with my Beedrill's Twin Needle. I didn't know Poison types were weak to Bug types back in the day. I mean, you can easily beat Erica with Fire or Flying, Koga with Ground types, and Sabrina with fast physical hitters or a Jolteon with Pin Missile, but this is really cool and fun to do if you were/are a Beedrill fan like I am.
No Dragon Pokemon would get destroyed by Klefki, at least not because it's a Fairy type. It is also a Steel type and 90% of Dragons carry a Fire type move, which would destroy Klefki. Also Klefki as a Pokemon can be considered original if you think about it it's a Gen 6 Pokemon and there were a lot more unoriginal Pokemon in Gen 1 which was the first to come out, If anything I would say the most disappointing Pokemon was Voltorb,
Worst thing about number 1 is its typeing is really good only being weak to ground and fire (Imagin if it had levitate) Its imunne to types, one of witch is fairys weakness, Posion, and resists 9 types and it being steel type takes ANOTHER one of fairys weaknesses away, steel, al in all most of the types that damage it normaly are weaknesses lowerd by its typing
Honestly, I've found Dustox is more like Butterfree in move set, and Beautifly mostly relies of grass and flying moves, while Dustox relies on psychic moves.
The "running out of ideas" thing is a very VERY weak argument because even in generation 1 there were stupid pokemon designs. For example: Muk, Grimer, Magnemite, Lickitung (or however tf you spell that), Voltorb and Electrode especially. So the whole running out of ideas thing is dumb, just like a lot of gen one pokemon.
I learned that in Pokemon X/Y, my Venusaur is absolutely useless in the restaurant battles. I mean, the badass guy is level 73, wiped out trainers from all over Kalos and creamed my "rival" with no problem whatsoever, but throw him in the restaurants of Lumiose City with my four favorite moves: Sleep Powder, Poison Powder, Petal Dance and Petal Bliizzard and all I can do is use the powder moves! Petal Dance can't be used whatsoever, and as for Petal Blizzard...well...if I WANT to take out my Lapras and Greninja while trying to attack the opposition that's fine...He'll have to stay out of the restaurant battles.
My friends and I were talking about how klefki was a sorry design for a Pokémon and we thought a pokemon based off a car would have been a better design than that
Luckily, Beedrill got a Mega Evolution.
Now people might look at it more.
Probably.
+Mr. Zappy Gamer honestly mega beedrill is cool looking but it still needs better moves.
mega beedrill is a glass cannon of death.
Special Attacking
Mega Beedrill Sweep
Only at Pimpnite
Probably
but then butterfree got a gigantmax form
Voltorb/Electrode.
"Let's make a pokemon made of a Pokeball!"
"What should it evolve into?"
"Hmm. I know, an UPSIDE DOWN Pokeball!"
BRILLIANT!
BRILLIANT!
Wild murderer appeared
Person sent out Keys
Murderer used stab
It's not very effective
Keys used violent jangle
It's super effective
Murderer fainted
BRILLIANT
more like, "keys used swagger !"
"murderer walked away out of confusion..."
Those are some badass keys!
Um...okey
Fairies defeating dragons? "BRRRILLIANT!!!".
exept charizard
+Peter Kolev Yea but he's also part fire which cancels it out. Charizard will never fall to fairies.
ye
Gabriel Diaz-Fernandez a stone thrown at it? OHKO!
most dragon type pokemon can learn flamethrower so klekfi is terrible in battle
SNORELAX IS A CAT????!?! *Mind flipping blows up*
i think its supposed to be a giant ground sloth. sloths are lazy, good swimmers, and eat a lot. that sounds like snorlax. before you say ''why isn't it a fossil pokemon''. well lapras is clearly a plesiosaur but its not a fossil either.
+skylynn haney-gillis THAT WAS ONYXPECTED man im dissapointed in myself now
SNORELAX IS A PANDA
Snorlax is just its own thing like Nidoking
snorlax is suppose to be a bear
Klefki never really bothered me. I guess because it is a trolly pokemon in competitive battle that the silly design fits. Also it is a really fucking cute set of keys.
True. None of the designs really get to me.
UltimaNylocke If I could get a Klefki keyholder that would be so awesome!
cameron seow Yup! You can scare people in real life :P
-Jingle keys angrily- D:
+cameron seow Just look at the KeyMaster in the Kalos Anime. (His Klefki is the head of a collapsible staff) And it's awesome
Klefki is awesome. Jingle jangle.
Ikr! You can key your rival's car.
*Jingling keys* Jingle jangle.
He was pretty lame....until he defended himself and took out half my team. It was a massacre... I had to rethink my team twice.
Yeah.. I had to rethink my team too xD
N Harmonia WHAT
Be honest though...
You can't hate Klefki, you just can't, it's so ridiculous but so loveable at the same time
KLEFKI WILL F*** YOU UP!
A note to all of the "intimate object" pokemon like klefki, electrode ect.: The Japanese have a legend that any object (such as an umbrella, cooking pot ect.) that reaches 100 years of age is granted a soul, and with it, magic powers. these objects hold memories of their past and if you treated them well essentially become powerful good luck charms, whereas if you mistreated the objects, they would become spiteful and bring curses upon you.
Also, klefki isn't a set of keys, it just stole a bunch of keys. it pretends to be a key ring to steal things from people.
*sits down with purugly and watches her smile*
*strokes her slowly watches her smile and kisses her forehead* I will still like you no matter what purugly, and don't worry I know your not garbarge like garbodor's stats

And I hate ticci because killing your own family isn't right and I never read his creepypasta and I date others to make them happy but I accidently start to really love them....
Don't call me an idiot just because I don't want to read his stupid story
Well I didn't know
Yes. Klefki's design is... Somewhat disappointing...
Butt! Competitively speaking... Prankster, Dual Screen, T-Wave and Spikes. Not satisfied? Well, I can't help you then.
*****
I only do competitive battling. If I find a fitting nickname for a Pokémon and it's useful I'll rock out with it. Even if that means bringing a key chain to fight a dragon.
+KurratRichard Wait, what's a Kuppicak?
+KurratRichard That's what we call a 'Slurpuff'. >_>
+KurratRichard Fairies destroy Megamence! Of course, I'd spam Play Rough!
If he hadn't such bad defenses I'd probably use it more often.
Belly Drum, Sitrus Berry and Unburden make up for a nice combination but it has bad defenses, attack and speed.
Actually kinda like it's design. It always makes me laugh.
not to mention its in ou not ubers
I think voltorb and electrode should be on this list
Hey guys we need to evolve this pokemon!
How does he look like?
A pokeball.
Just put the white part up and the red one down
Brilliant!
They are gen one pokemon so many can accept that the design is uncreative, but I don't know why some people like those pokemon
fak joo
those were made to say hey look you found an item , naw it was actually just a look alike monster now you have to fight it you know how they have the trick monsters and crap in RPGs
***** he was saying thats what the stupid decelopers thought you idiot !
I hated Klefki at first, but then I went on to love it when it knocked Yveltal's health real down low so I could capture it with only Super Ball instead of wasting my pokeball.
I actually really like Klefki it's cute, and Prankster pokemon are useful (And Annoying) for support
Klefki was the best pokemon I had before I lost my copy of Y.
And I had a super trained Deoxys D so that's saying something.
***** Klefki is nice, it's stats are actually pretty decent (In it's respective tier which I believe belongs to NU or RU)
opaattack dude clean your room or something to find it im not joking i found red version in my room and i never played it
Peter Kolev knife what?
It's the fairy that steals/hides your keys.
I really can't believe he left out trubbish and garbodor..
Well, considering unova is based on nyc, it's makes some sense at least
Yeah I guess lol
*thumbs up*
When I first saw Klefki I laughed. And I don't mean I chuckled a bit, I was absolutely rolling around on the floor crying from laughter. If it's meant as some sort of joke, well it worked on me at least, what's next? A wardrobe Pokemon?
I'm betting a clock
Klefki is actually really good.
Old Pokemon fans.... -_-
***** Who cares if it's good? That doesn't matter. It's a poor design. It's just silly.
And what qualifies as "Good designs"? Only being based off an animal? If that's the case, then you clearly don't know what good design are. Nothing in Pokemon says there can only be animal based Pokemon. Items can be Pokemon as well. What else must Klefki look like to be qualify as "Good design" to you?
***** It doesn't have to be based off an animal! Look at Lucario, Ludicolo, Abomnasnow, Arceus, Mewtwo and many more, JUST DON'T BASE THEM OFF INANIMATE OBJECTS!!!
I especially agree with Klefki here. Really, the fact a keychain can destroy dragons is just insulting in my opinion.
+KiddoTheDragon That's what makes it so awesome, really.
Runs WithWeasels You've got to be kidding me. ;w;
***** Oh gosh, my mind's officially been ruined.
Good one, though. XD
Anjali Vaid Whatever. The idea's still stupid.
My flame thrower Slurpuff makes scrap metal out of Klefki.
the worst designs are usually based off of inanimate objects. i would like to think of pokemon as creatures that could exist as a natural part of that world but you cant tell me that a fucking set of keys is an animal. or a garbage bag for that matter. such lazy designs
You have that flipped. The inanimate object Pokemon are actually the most creative ones and can serve as actual monsters. Let's test this:
"Run for your life it's a bird monster!!!!"
Vs
"Run for your life it's a garbage monster!!!"
Yeah...
run for your life, its a set of keys with a face. i think i made my point
Chris Green Well i dont think Klefki is ment to be scary and it "jiggling its keys to warn or scare people is ment to be cute like a chihuahua barking at a bigger dog trying to be tough but yea hows this for a simular comparison : aww look at the cute lil Dog" vs " aww look at the cute Fairy who collects keys "
Chris Green Oh my god! ONE Pokemon proves your point O-O I guess I'm wrong
Sarcasm aside, the object Pokemon are more creative than the normal animals that they've made. They've made great animal Pokemon that can actually be monstrous like Clawtizer, Luxray, Arcanine, etc. And they've also made some badass object Pokemon like Chandelure, Cofagrigus, and Magnezone.
Marix2Rinku well i was really trying to make a counter argument to marco smith's comment. i think most pokemon arent really supposed to be "monsters", more like animals. i actually thought his "test" for inanimate object based pokemon vs animal based pokemon was pretty irrelevant.

"BRILLIANT!" *loses shit laughing*
I know right XD
Klefki.Very original game freak.
Fuck magikarp. Lets make a worse pokemon

Seriously guys?Gyarodos is one of the best from it's type in gen 1.
Yea but its magikarp that sux

The inanimate object pokemon are the best IMO. People bitch and say that they're bad because of what they're based on. I mean seriously, the designers know what their doing and I know that you can choose to like them or not but seriously...you're saying that a trash or ice cream monster are shitty and lazy...but coloring a rat purple is creative?
Seriously?

And I love almost all pokémon, even the ones with stupid designs. But there are two or three that just... Gah, I can't like them. Lickilicky is one of them '-'
Yes, Klefki, the steel/fairy type, with 2 weaknesses (3 negated), 2 immunities, good stats, a good movepool, the ability to learn magnet rise (now only 1 weakness!), dragon-murdering skills, and a silly design to make your opponents underestimate you IS VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!
For me, Beedrill was actually my fav. bug type in the first gen, because it was practically the only thing that could fight against psychic types at the time. It had decent bug type moves, while butterfree new none. Parasect only had leech life. and the the programmers made a stupid mistake with the ghost moves not hitting psychic pokemon
why do people hate klefki so much when there are pokemon from first gen that are literally based off rocks, sludge, magnets, eggs, and pokeballs.
Clearly Brandon has not seen Dookieshed's "Klefki will F*** you up" Video when making his #1 :P
I personally think Purugly is adorable.
i support that.
Yessss someone agrees with purugly
Klefki swagger, thunder wave... it's over
Add foul play to the mix.
Very devastating
Don't forget priority Light Screen and Reflect thanks to Prankster.
Klefki is a monster, he has so many possibilities.
Erick Gamino The reason why I choose Sp Attacker pokemons and one Physical Attacker.
Klefki is actually really original. Has there been a Key Pokemon? No, so he's orignal. If anything, Fennekin and Zorua are unoriginal, since there has already been a fox Pokemon. Not that they are bad, but my point is that people really don't know what they mean by saying "Unoriginal".
Peter Kolev lol ouch. Apply cold on burning area...
Peter Kolev lol ouch. Apply cold on burning area...
Peter Kolev Says that to the guy who can't even put a period in his sentences. And it's "is". Not "are". It's hard to take an insult seriously when you make simple grammar mistakes.
Peter Kolev...
Apply some dry ice on your burn area
Peter Kolev People who say that, tend to be the people who admit they have crappy grammar.
I really like your idea about fan created pokemon. Nintendo would be smart to do a contest like that
3:00 ... uh... what are THOSE pokémon?!
Anyway, I like all Pokémon to be honest.
Even when I don't personally like the design I can usually understand the references which are good enough for me because story is the most important thing in a game. And for art the story is the reference.
My only issue was with Meditite and Medicham. Before this Gen, they're personally the only ones I'd have deleted if given a chance to delete any one family but I really like Mega Medicham so I can't particularly fault them anymore.
Except the individual DERP the Medicham who cost me 2 other Pokémon in my last Pearl Nuzlocke because it decided crashing into a wall to commit suicide would be more fun than hitting the opponent with High Jump Kick.
Him specifically I'll hate forever.
I can agree with Beedrill. It's a glass cannon, minus the cannon.
I never really used either Probopass or Purugly, but I wasn't exactly disappointed by them. If a Pokémon isn't useful in the game, I don't care about the way it looks. That also goes for Beautifly, which I did use it very briefly in R/S. But unlike Butterfree, it didn't really give me a reason to keep it on my team, as it did NOT have the same moveset, learning Grass instead of Psychic moves. And the early game of Gen 3 was nowhere near short of actual Grass-types to use instead. However, I will never be disappointed by a Pokémon just for looking similar to another.
As for Klefki though, what people keep saying about it really annoys me. It's ALWAYS:
1. "Its design is lazy and stupid!" Compared to many other Pokémon, yes. Compared to the likes of Digglet, Voltorb and Grimer, no! Klefki is far from the "laziest design ever".
2. "Those keys kill dragons!" *NO!* Just no! Klefki is NOT something you should ever send out to defeat a Dragon-type!
Klefki is what competitive players call an "annoyer". Its purpose is not to deal damage, but to hinder the opponent's Pokémon. Its movepool is tailored to *lock* your opponents options, and it does pretty bad at about everything else.
Also, Flygon, Garchomp and Mega Charizard X are very popular Dragon-types that can sweep Klefki like nothing. It may be a Fairy-type, but it's still a Steel-type as well. Ground and Fire moves make quick work of it.
The one Pokémon I am really disappointed by is Mega Slowbro, by the way. It's the Dan Hibiki of Mega Evolutions.
Pokemon that have disappointing designs are mostly gen 1 /: look at them , some of those designs are boring or God awful!!
Exactly
ilke kunduraci
Don't worry, I like most of the new Pokemon, there's not only Genwunners but also those annoying Gen 3 fanboys.
Thinking about Klefki taking down a dragon type just gave me the mental image of jingling keys in front of a Dragonite to distract it... 😂
hey at least purugly was more creative than giving a pokemon a gem and calling it "evolved"
So, my favorite animal is a cat. And I really like Snorlax. But Snorlax, a cat? My mind is now terminated.
Klefki was gamefreak mocking genwunners, they said it themselfs ^-^ .
I totally agree with you in the Beedril one. All those time and effort I've spent in grinding that Kakuna that only knows the move Harden is SO not worth it.
Klefki is number one? *goes back to dookieshed video*
I don't think Klefki is dissapointing... in fact you just have to look at Grimer/Muk for a moment... and realize his design is just a deformed mass. The thing is that it's easy to say that the new pokemons are unoriginal... but never look back and see that we already had that kind of designs back at the first season.
How about a Grinch Pokémon? It may be...
BRIIIILLAAAANT!!!!
So, here's something I never really understand:
Ice cream pokemon, Garbage pokemon, Key pokemon: Not creative
Fox pokemon, Tiger pokemon, Squirrel pokemon: Creative
*Hydreigon used Draco Meteor on Klefki*
- Nothing happened.
Some big meteor hurled towards Klefki and that piece of key didn't even got a scratch.
ikr
Just a little more ABrandonToThePast and you'll have a 100,000 subscribers. I'm so happy. I remember when you only had 20,000. Keep it up.
3:56 I fell off my chair laughing!
I love the fact that I don't see Trubbish or Garbodor on this! Many people say those pokemon suck and are 'uncreative'.
BUT NO ONE REMEMBERS KLING, KLANG, AND KLINGKLANG?
The Klefki to success.
I feel that Glameow/Purugly is supposed to be one or two puns.
1. A pretty, feminine person who takes pride in her appearance but as it gets older, it just gets lazy and stops trying, thus she gains a massive tons of weight, it generally temperamental to pissed off, and slobby. lol
2. How cats love you when they're little but grow into bigger cats who seem to hate you lol (it's a stereotype of course).
Yeah, Purugly is kinda disappointing for an evolution of a genuinely cool looking cat but at the same time, I can't help but laugh at the possible context behind it lol
have u ever wondered that theres never been a pure flying type pokémon.
Tornadus
this 💀🔜👽🔜👾
Teee s. Aeceus is normal type
I really like Klefki. The prankster ability and the various moves really make it a valuable pokemon!
Congratulations! Your Klefki evolved into Mewtwo!
That'll make Klefki a real badass.
that would be very onix-pected.....sorry.
BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!! BY 9000!!!!! lol
Pangoro was the most disappointing Pokemon for me. Everyone swore it was going to be a staple in the competitive OU battle scene, but now it's NU, and I never see anyone using it.
2:23 cracked me up 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
4:06 That Klefki is in serious EQ danger. Good thing it got up that reflect with it's prankster
Sudowoodo is a tree
And it isn't a grass type
its rock
And is Super Effective by water types
it's not a tree its a mimicing rock type pokemon.
No, it's a rock tree! XD
Have you never played pokemon before? Klefkey with it's prankster ability makes it an amazing, if not the best support. Along with it's typing and move pool, I think it deserves some credit.
gen 5 had the worst lol
No...
cause voltrob is so good
Limited color Palit. So voltob is limited
guess grimer and muk gets a freebie
Iman Winslow
a tar/sewage pokemon is better than a fucking keyring lol
Your list had me chuckling quite a bit. :)
I should mention that Klefki is notorious for something called "SkillKeys," which refers to Klefki using its Prankster ability to paralyze foes with Thunder Wave, confuse them with Swagger, then use Foul Play to deal more damage (since Swagger ups attack by 2).
Ahem.....Dunsparce
Hmm... 3 AQW players in the comments here (including myself). Interesting.
CONGRATS ON 100,000 SUBS!!!!!!!!!! I've been waiting to say that ever since you had 64,000 subs. I LOVE your channel man. I want to make pokemon walkthroughs on my ipad, any advice?
Nope. You are completely wrong. Klefki is the key to defeat everyone! (At least the bug catchers).
***** I beat it with only a level 80 Metagross .-.
epic.apri.39 Metagross is a pseudo so it isn't that impressive.
Gray Tiamat187 :]
epic.apri.39 Is there a reason that you are happy after I just said that your accomplishment wasn't much of an accomplishment?
Gray Tiamat187 Because I like Metagross :D
Bro I swear when u post a video it makes my day , your awesome and keep them coming Brandon 👌
6th gen was the worst imo
How
Marco Smith only 69 pokemon, which mostly suck ass and are shitty designs, shit storyline, boring, I only played the story once, they focused on the graphics and were lazy about everything else. overall the worst IMO (In My Opinion) 3rd gen was the best imo
myevyn yes indeed, just my opinion though
Timothy Berry Something tells me that you where hoping for something new, which X and Y didn't really do
Timothy Berry -There were only 69 Pokemon because they had to make models for ALL of the other Pokemon as well. Plus, if they had more, people like you would bitch even more...
-Gen 6 had some of the best design, along with the other Gens. (Even though Gen 1 had some of the worst)
-Yes, wanting to kill everyone that's not like the evil team is such a terrible story...-_-
-They were upgrading everything to actually look good on the 3DS, and the other aspects are still kinda good.
-The only "disappointment" is the Exp Share being OP and the post game
Klefki's mega evolution could be the kingdom key! 😋💡
My favorite gen was gen 3 or 6 but the worst one's gotta be gen 2
Nah, it's Gen 4 and then Gen 1 being the overall worst games.
Gen 4 had the worst music of the bunch (not necessarily bad music, but not fitting for Pokémon games) which after story is the most important thing and Gen 1 had basically no end game content despite having an interesting story and good music.
Gen 2 is third best though only barely so. If it weren't for Black 2/White 2 Gen 5 would be the worst.
Black and White's only saving grace was the sheer number of new Pokémon to collect. Black and White 2 are what made the Generation something that mattered. It fixed almost everything B/W did wrong.
Which was almost everything.
So overall it's 6, 5, 2, 3, 1, 4 from best to worst.
Though I'm not sure what this has to do with the topic at hand since it's about Pokémon designs not the game design as a whole.
**flags op for spam**
GullsAK All gens have bad things about them i would never say ones better maybe i can mention memories with one but for respect of the whole series i love and support all Gens
GullsAK my list is almost reverse to urs. But no hate.
GullsAK See i really love Sinnoh, I don't understand why people fucking hate it with a fiery passion...then again I started out with it, first Pokemon game and all...(I didn't get into Pokemon until Diamond/Pearl/Platinum)
thunderclanliveson1 nah gen 4 had the best story for me and when i got to Mt. Coronet i was stuck for like 4 hours because i didnt know you could enter from one of the entrances. Oh, btw i liked Cyrus and his ambition the most. the only thing i didnt like is that the pokemon just didnt entertain me much
Omg I love the way you talk! "There's a few stinkers" XD I love it!!!
Try this move set on klefki
Swagger
Foul play
Shock wave
Spikes
This is badass
Mega Arceus BRILLIANT!
+Mega Arceus I bet your playing pokemon showdown right? :D
+Mega Arceus Do you mean Thunder Wave, not Shock Wave?
Yus Miss type
that's what I thought
The evolution for Nosepass reminds me of Nigel from The Wild Thornberrys. lol
I agree with this list :D
"Klefki is unoriginal" - Yes, because basing something off old folklore/religion about fairies is completely unoriginal. Damn you J.R.R Tolkien, creators of Dungeons and Dragons, and the countless books/movies/games inspired by you!
BRILLIANT!
"BRILLIANT! You reject your own nose because it represents the glitter of commercialism. Why didn't I think of that? Cut, print, check the gate, moving on." - Badass movie my favourite at Christmas me and my siblings can recite every line!
"Watch out, we have a badass over here." XD IM DYING!!!! LOL
The designers were like BRILLIANT! when they notice their car keys and were like BRILLIANT! When they think of keys destroying dragons.
Laziest design is Klefki, ok but Pokemon like Voltorb, Electrode, Muk, Magneton, Kling, Pineco etc. are just fine!
Funny thing is that Klefki isn't even keys... Its the metal thing holding the keys. I fucking hate Klefki because of its super cheap Prankster, Swagger, Foul Play tactic. Its design is okay.
personally, I (unlike many of my friends) thought klefki was a cute concept and showed potential. too bad they didn't give it an evolution. it could've shown promise.
Pizza dat ass? I give you the award for best pickup line ever
Klefki? Is klefki less original than magneton (three magnets stuck together) voltorb (a Pokeball) etc? As for disappointing, have you used it in battle? :p
Before, I caught a Weedle in HGSS, then it became a Beedrill. I regretted it because it was super duper useless, so I agree with you. Though Purugly is powerful because Mars kept defeating me with it in Pokémon Pearl. I was about to give up when my lvl. 9 Bidoof defeated it. I was like, "YES! And it was level 9!!! LOLZ!!!!!!!"
in the description, it says "Looking forward to seeing new Pokemon is always fun!"
dosen't make sense...
I've recently come to realize that Beedrill isn't as useless in Gen 1 as we all thought. Playing through the downloadable Red Version, I smashed through Erica, Koga, Sabrina, and Agatha with my Beedrill's Twin Needle. I didn't know Poison types were weak to Bug types back in the day. I mean, you can easily beat Erica with Fire or Flying, Koga with Ground types, and Sabrina with fast physical hitters or a Jolteon with Pin Missile, but this is really cool and fun to do if you were/are a Beedrill fan like I am.
The brilliant meme with klefki, i lost it!😂😂😂
No Dragon Pokemon would get destroyed by Klefki, at least not because it's a Fairy type. It is also a Steel type and 90% of Dragons carry a Fire type move, which would destroy Klefki. Also Klefki as a Pokemon can be considered original if you think about it it's a Gen 6 Pokemon and there were a lot more unoriginal Pokemon in Gen 1 which was the first to come out, If anything I would say the most disappointing Pokemon was Voltorb,
+The Golden Heart Gaming Klefki is so badass he got a move banned from competitions (if I'm not wrong)
my friend has a shiny dragalge. do you know what is immune to poison and dragon
klefki
Worst thing about number 1 is its typeing is really good only being weak to ground and fire (Imagin if it had levitate) Its imunne to types, one of witch is fairys weakness, Posion, and resists 9 types and it being steel type takes ANOTHER one of fairys weaknesses away, steel, al in all most of the types that damage it normaly are weaknesses lowerd by its typing
3:00 Which pokemon are those? Or from wich Rom hack? I mean the ones after Arceus :D
Honestly, I've found Dustox is more like Butterfree in move set, and Beautifly mostly relies of grass and flying moves, while Dustox relies on psychic moves.
I never even noticed that each cat had a different feeling! But if delicately was pride what is that lion thing from sixth gen?
The "running out of ideas" thing is a very VERY weak argument because even in generation 1 there were stupid pokemon designs. For example: Muk, Grimer, Magnemite, Lickitung (or however tf you spell that), Voltorb and Electrode especially. So the whole running out of ideas thing is dumb, just like a lot of gen one pokemon.
Klefki was in OU, for a period of time. Who knows, it might still be in OU, I haven't played Showdown in a while.
Just wondering, but what does Brandon use to make his videos?
I've been wondering for a while.
I learned that in Pokemon X/Y, my Venusaur is absolutely useless in the restaurant battles. I mean, the badass guy is level 73, wiped out trainers from all over Kalos and creamed my "rival" with no problem whatsoever, but throw him in the restaurants of Lumiose City with my four favorite moves: Sleep Powder, Poison Powder, Petal Dance and Petal Bliizzard and all I can do is use the powder moves! Petal Dance can't be used whatsoever, and as for Petal Blizzard...well...if I WANT to take out my Lapras and Greninja while trying to attack the opposition that's fine...He'll have to stay out of the restaurant battles.
I legit just binging your videos. They are so funny.
My friends and I were talking about how klefki was a sorry design for a Pokémon and we thought a pokemon based off a car would have been a better design than that
ABrandonToThePast did you come up with the "rear end as big as a Volkswagen beetle" comment because of the Cletus T. Judd song?
....Annnd Klefki has the key to open the gates of Hell....you forgot to mention that...
the key to mount snowpeak,a key to your friends house, a key to your mom's yard, key to GS ball, key to your diary, yeah that's about it.
I Disagree of Klefki being in number 1,i love that pokemon :(
Am I seriously the only one that LOVES Purugly and doesn't understand why everyone hates it?
