The Pok\u00e9mon<\/a><\/em> series found an audience right out of the gate. The level of support for this series has only grown over time and it\u2019s incredible to see the heights that Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> has been able to reach in just a few decades. Now Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> mainline titles and spin-offs are on the majority of Nintendo<\/a> consoles and there\u2019s also an anime that\u2019s been going strong for years.<\/p>\n

Of the many different types of Pok\u00e9mon that fill up the universe, there\u2019s always been an extra level of affection for Electric-Types<\/a> due to how Pikachu is a member of the party. Nobody is going to forget Ash\u2019s faithful partner, but the same isn\u2019t true for some of these other Electric Pok\u00e9mon.<\/p>\n

11 <\/span>Rotom<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Admittedly, Rotom is one of the more unique Pok\u00e9mon that are out there and it\u2019s an example of the series getting a little more creative on both how Pok\u00e9mon can work and also the ethos behind them. Rotom is a mix of Electric- and Ghost-Type<\/a>, which plays into how the Pok\u00e9mon can possess the motor of certain appliances and then become a different version of itself. In this sense, things like the Rotom Phone or any of these altered version of Rotom are slightly more memorable, but his base form is just a means to an end.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>Emolga<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

With there being hundreds upon hundreds of Pok\u00e9mon out there, it\u2019s only natural that some of them will feel like copies of previous Pok\u00e9mon and don\u2019t really offer anything original. This is especially true during Generation V where the franchise created some nostalgia out of returning to old ideas. There\u2019s no denying that Emolga is cute. It\u2019s an Electric- and Flying-Type<\/a> that takes its cues from a flying squirrel, but Emolga just feels like a reject from the Pikachu evolutionary line. Emolga would only standout if a handful of other Pok\u00e9mon didn\u2019t already exist.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Pincurchin<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Some Pok\u00e9mon are able to get by on the fact that they’re so gross and unappealing that they actually become cute again. Pincurchin tows this line, but in the end there’s just not enough going on here for the urchin-based Pok\u00e9mon to stand out. Pincurchin is meant to be one of the bottom-feeders of the sea world, despite the electricity that it packs.<\/p>\n

Pincurchin blends in with the other aquatic Pok\u00e9mon and the fact that it’s a newer creature from Generation VIII means that audiences have had less of a chance to get to know Pincurchin in the first place.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Electrike<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Generation III<\/a> of the Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> titles features some controversial creations and while there are plenty of worthwhile additions from the games, there seem to be even more that are looked down on. Electrike is an Electric canine Pok\u00e9mon that\u2019s cute in its own right, but it\u2019s just such a simple design and doesn\u2019t really stand out when there are other Pok\u00e9mon like Jolteon that are better takes on the same idea. Electrike feels lazy in its design and it’s an unessential Pok\u00e9mon. Its evolved form, Manectric, is also simplistic in the same ways.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Galvantula<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Galvantula comes from Generation V<\/a> and it\u2019s actually the evolved form of another very forgettable Electric\/Bug-Type Pokemon, Joltik, which is exactly what the problem is for Galvantula. Galvantula is undeniably more distinct than Joltik, but few people will actually be dedicated enough to push Joltik to Level 36 to get it to evolve in the first place. In that sense it\u2019s easy to not know that the Pok\u00e9mon exists. Also, Galvantula is a spider, which is something that nobody wants to think about.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>Eelektrik<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

It can be difficult for the Pok\u00e9mon that fill the aquatic areas to all be memorable and Eelektrik\u00a0is a casualty that\u2019s introduced in Generation V and remains a Pok\u00e9mon that\u2019s hard to notice.<\/p>\n

There are just more powerful Electric-Type Pok\u00e9mon that fill this niche and since Eelektrik can only be obtained in the later Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> games by evolving Tynamo, it\u2019s a Pok\u00e9mon that people seldom get to see since the Level 39 requirement is on the higher side and Tynamo is also no treat. It\u2019s a Pok\u00e9mon that\u2019s just not worth the effort.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Stunfisk<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Stunfisk is a Pok\u00e9mon from Generation V that suffers from the fact that it feels like a Pok\u00e9mon that should evolve into something more impressive, but it doesn\u2019t change into anything at all. The Pok\u00e9mon is at least also a Ground-Type in addition to being Electric, but it feels like another version of a Magikarp that\u2019s more of a mockery than a viable Pok\u00e9mon. Curiously, the Galar region<\/a> version of Stunfisk removes the Electric-Type entirely from the equation and turns the Pok\u00e9mon into a Ground\/Steel-Type Pok\u00e9mon, almost as if it disgraced the honor of its Electric-Type roots.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>Joltik<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Bug-Type Pok\u00e9mon<\/a> are typically not the most popular variety of Pok\u00e9mon. Bugs are very similar to bird Pok\u00e9mon that can be the overwhelming thing that\u2019s encountered while out on routes or the main areas of Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> games. Joltik is one of the more insignificant and tiny of the bug family and because of that it\u2019s easy to even exists in the first place. Perhaps a different design could help Joltik stand out more, but that\u2019s part of the problem of why it\u2019s one of the more irrelevant Pok\u00e9mon to come around in Generation V.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Charjabug<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The later Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> titles definitely have the least room to come up with completely new Pok\u00e9mon designs, which leads to some wilder swings from the developers, some of which work and others that are just silly and are better left forgotten. Generation VII\u2019s Pok\u00e9mon Sun and Moon<\/a> <\/em>isn\u2019t full of misses, but Charjabug is such an unusual example of a Pok\u00e9mon. It\u2019s a mix between an insect and a battery in an idea that\u2019s supposed to come across as cute, but doesn\u2019t. It is the kind of Pok\u00e9mon that David Cronenberg would be into, which is probably not a good thing.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>Chinchou<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The sad thing about Chinchou is that it’s a Pok\u00e9mon that feels like it’s one of the more phoned in designs from the later generations of games, but it’s actually from Generation II and within the original 250. Chinchou is an Electric\/Water-Type<\/a> that’s a fun example of when Pok\u00e9mon mimic real life, but it just blends in amongst the crowd. It’s a Pok\u00e9mon that could have really benefitted from a major presence in the anime or even a Super Smash Bros. <\/em>game, but it’s proven to be not very essential over time.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>Tynamo<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Much like how Eelektrik is a Pok\u00e9mon that’s very easy to forget, this is even truer for the Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s previous form Tynamo. There is just nothing at all that’s distinct about Tynamo’s design. It’s understandable that some of the earlier evolved forms are intentionally simple, but this goes too far in that department. While it makes sense that an eel Pok\u00e9mon would just be purely an Electric-Type, Tynamo would at least be more memorable if it was also a Water-Type. It’s only the final form of this chain, Eelektross, that manages to feel unique and does something different.<\/p>\n
