These 5 Pokemon Are Officially FireRed and LeafGreen’s Worst
There are a few key reasons why certain Pokémon struggle in FireRed and LeafGreen. Unlike later games, these versions use the Generation 3 damage system where each type deals either physical or special damage, regardless of the specific move. This significantly impacts some Pokémon, making them much more or less effective. Additionally, some Pokémon have limited movepools and stats that don’t work well together, making them particularly weak choices. We’ve identified five Pokémon that are arguably the worst in these games, and we recommend avoiding them unless you’re a dedicated fan or looking for a serious challenge.
