Top 10 Most OVERRATED Pokemon in Scarlet and Violet

Today I want to go over the most overrated Pokemon in Scarlet and Violet. This list won't be exclusive to just new mons though so there just may be some beloved older mons that make this list, which I'm sure will upset their super fans!

I disagree on your evaluation of Glaive Rush. I might just be getting lucky, but I find that with a two dragon dances I can sweep a couple pokemon without being hit by the downside of the move. Failing that, you can alternate between Glaive Rush and Protect

[@josefopeda]

This exactly. Glaive Rush's major downside is so easily mitigated by Protect that it's not really that much of a downside.

[@darrianceragland7963]

Well I think the idea is they use protect and the other move uses priority move to kill like a bullet punch scissor

[@justinterry2926]

To be fair you can sweep most teams with two dragon dances from any pokemon

[@davidharrisiii3062]

@@darrianceragland7963 (hey bud, there's no damaging move that has higher priority than protect.) Yeah competitively not running Glaive Rush/Protect on this Mon is a waste.. it makes this move almost 0 downside except that you have to spend a turn on protect/switching, which can allow your opponent a setup turn.

I sadly do think tinkaton is getting too much attention even though I loved using it. My reasoning for using it however is different from most. On halloween me and friends did a Halloween dnd night and the best character that night was a fairy who used a hammer who quite literally bashed everything to pieces. As soon as I saw its middle stage(found its first stage later in the game) I immediately added it to my team.

[@netweed09]

I think what would have justified it's Hype is actually if it were a _bit_ slower - but had a bit more Atk & a new Fairy priority move. Even @ 315 speed max; that's still not going to set the Pokémon world on fire in these 2020 days. Heck Dugtrio outspeeds it and EQs it and Tinkaton can't even use any good priority to answer. They should have given it a Fairy version of Jet Punch.

[@yonkonomi5706]

Man I'm not gonna lie, that dunsparce evolution ACTUALLY pisses me off 🤣 like REALLY?! This is what you gave us?!

[@BeastMode-bw2ry]

I mean, I guess it's better then nothing. I think they did it for the memes and to troll people a lot. But surprisingly dudunsparce is actually really good in battling with it's signature move Hyper drill which goes through protect.

[@FaolanHart]

It feels like a giant middle finger doesn't it. Even the name. Like it was designed by someone who actually hates it & it's fans. I hope Flygon doesn't get that treatment.

[@bacreativity2669]

Dunsparce is a joke, Dudunsparce is simply an extension of the joke.

[@CoalEater_Elli]

Farigiraf is my new favorite psychic pokemon. This thing is strong. If you have armor tail ability, you literally can't be hit with moves like sucker punch and first impression. It is also immune to ghost type and has good hp stat. Also Twin beam is an amazing move, that can work against opponents with focus sash, and substitute abusers, because this thing hits twice, and hits hard i might add.

[@MikeTheEnforcer]

Frittle's evolution is also a strong psychic type, even has a move that harshly lowers Sp. Def.

[@netweed09]

Look, I get emotion is a powerful object; but base 60 speed is totally not 'strong' - sorry, but I have Years of experience from Smogon and whether you respect that or not, it doesn't change those facts. Thus, the whole mitigating Priority thing is mostly pointless because the thing gets outsped by 99% of Pokémon in the first place!! ~ I'm just trying to advise, please don't get mad if you will. You can continue loving the Giraffe (I love it's design.)

[@nintendolife25]

I’m actually have to agree with you about Tinkaton. I see this Pokémon on almost every SV playthrough team.

[@netweed09]

Ikr? I just laugh at them and use Iron Valiant. Much more reliable and immediately impactful. I love Tinkaton but it's just too underwhelming; needed more Attack, or a better Custom move than Regigigas' terrible effect but in it's signature move lol.

Yup, for sure. It’s got a great typing for a sun sweeper, with really good stats and abilities to back it up. It has fairly good offences with 108 in each, STAB fire moves (with sun boost), and STAB Solar Beam to complete its ensemble as a special sweeper in the sun. Their speed is their weakest link at 75, but even then it has Chlorophyll and Trailblaze to make up for the lack of speed. Edit- forgot to mention the defences. They’re low, 65 HP / Def / SpDef. That’s why it’s well-rated instead of over/underrated. If they were much lower, perhaps 60/55, then I’d understand people who say it’s overrated.

[@rapsaur1520]

[@naofumitempest1365]

[@BurritoKilla]

"The legendaries are cool and the way you get them is great but I don't think they live up to the hype they look good but since people like them they're overrated" like what bro? Let people enjoy things damn

[@mimahakurei4430]

Yeah, the argument is basically "they're popular so they're overrated", but in reality, they're some of the best legendaries we've gotten in a while, especially lorewise (based on the Four Perils of Chinese mythology, which puts them in direct opposition to the Forces of Nature, who are the Four Auspicious Beasts). The process you have to go through to get them really makes them feel like they're ancient malevolent spirits. And they're all really good options to use on your team, especially Chien Pao, who is one of the more powerful Ice types.

[@GioKamots]

Nothing stops you in hiting "Protect" or to Switch after Baxcalibur's next turn.... in VGC it's great and in singles it's not the worst

[@netweed09]

?? You can't Protect _right after_ the turn you've just used it if the other Pokémon survives?! And even then; it's effectively 2 moveslots (half your total allocation) for 1 move that's less than a Draco Meteor? Yikes.

[@omegarathalos6046]

I haven't played the games yet, but I feel that the Treasures of Ruin are like an opposite to the Island Guardians

XD 7 - Gardevoir - Is great, but yeah, very overrated just like Charizard. XD 6 - Cetitan - Neutral towards it really. I usually never see anyone talk about it other than they prefer its pre-evo. 5 - Treasures - I love the treasures of ruin big time, especially the snow leopard. 4. Toadscruel - I just like Toadscruel's shiny cause pink. Need more pink shinies! 3. Scovillain - I think it's neat, but wish the design and shiny was better. 2. Ceruledge - I looooove him! His signature move is just awesome! I do wish their shinies were better though. 1. Tinkaton - Not my favorite design wise, but damn she packs a punch!

Many of these are new Niches; but they're simply underwhelming compared to previous 'Hype trains' - like Garchomp, Metagross, Sceptile, Delphox with Grass Knot (there's your 'Grass/Fire' only much speedier and with STAB Psychic moves?) I only flaty disagree with him on the Ruinous mythicals; that was a bad opinion being honest those things are OP.

[@seanwilliams823]

I CAN NOT agree with Innialape. He gets a ton of love because he is arguably the most deserving of it. I have love Mankey since Gen 1. It is actually my only favorite pokemon of type that has never changed. I will admit, it was a tiny bit lacking but Innialape has fulfilled my dream of it being incredible and it has put in the most work and most carries on my team. It is not overrated. It is deserving of its glory.

Gardevoir will stay as a favorite of mine since my first play through of the original generation 3 games, had it on my team every chance i got when a game had the Pokemon as an option, now as for the GodZilla looking Pokemon i have it on my team mainly cause i like its design, i did have DunDunsparse on my team at some point but changed it to a more suitable Pokemon do to it just being disappointing, i wanted to see it get an evolution, but this was a sort of let down, as for the other Pokemon i didnt pay all to much attention to them after i captured them

[@-Puppet-]

Yes gardevoir is an amazing pokemon when ever i need a reliable psychic type i typicaly chose gardevoir. In legends Arcues Gardevoir, Lucario, and Zoroark were amazing and very useful in the game

[@phoenix5054]

Gardevoir is really good. Swampert is the only Gen 3 I like over it. It's like Alakazam but a little weaker, and one you don't need to trade to evolve.

[@mayauppstad9883]

I honestly think Farigiraf is very underrated. I can't recall ever facing one on ladder or showdown, but it has been on almost every one of my own teams and absolutely carried. The prio-immunity for both it and it's teammate makes it great at setting trick room or enabling your tailwind user, and makes it an amazing switch in for things like e-speed dragonite or technician bullet punch scizor. For the ruin legendaries I only thing Chien-Pao and Chi-Yu ar overrated. They are on almost every team in the formats that allow them, but I almost never see Wo-Chien or Ting-Lu which is crazy to me considering their abilities have a much lower chance to backfire than the other two. I won't dwell on Toedscruel too much since my last comment about it was featured in the video so it's pretty clear where I stand, but after seeing Wolfey and JaidenAnimations run eviolite Toedscool with protect, spore, rage powder, morror coat, I'm convinced it's a good pokémon. But I guess Toedscool being good kinda strengthens your point about Toedscruel being overrated. Also toedscool's walking animation is one of the best things I've ever seen.

[@AmongstTheUnicode]

I agree with most of these. I really just use pokemon that I enjoy, as long as their useable in some way, despite how good or bad their stats are. It’s really fun to experiment with different types of pokemon you’ve never used before, and some people just have the most plain and predictable teams for each playthrough.

[@enderplayz9906]

When your Baxcaliber has 300 attack and 220 speed, glaive rush instantly sweeps, even if the Pokémon against it is a higher level. It is my MVP. It is fantastic and nothing can change my mind lol

[@Hipnoballs-leon]

The only way to make glaive rush GOOD is by using protect or dragon dance before so you can hit faster

[@WalterPupet]

The people who mainly wanted a pepper grass/fire type seem to be unaware that there is a tree that drops exploding seed pods. Too bad seed bomb already exists.

[@peregrinehawk8363]

Scovillain in doubles can spicy extract a clear body or clear amulet teammate and just give them an SD boost, and it also gets rage powder so it could have some merit in doubles.

With baxcalibur glaive rush can be easily compensated for with protect. And Tinkaton has 1 of the best typings in the whole game. I don't understand how these pokemon are overrated. Just because a pokemon is highly rated doesn't mean it is overrated.

Chi-Yu? Chien-Pao? Annihilape? Cyclizar? These are meta definining Pokémon right now. Ceruledge is also a very very very solid Pokémon. Lastly, who exactly is overrating Gardevoir? It's a very solid Pokémon for a single player playthrough (specially since you can catch it before you even reach the first Pokémon Center), but it hasn't even seen competitive play in years. You're grasping for straws here. Maybe you should have just made an actually respectable top 5 list.

Gholdengo was never any of these, it was just not worth for the main story due to the difficulty of evolving it which a lot of people have come to accept.

[@brendanroe8604]

Coming into this game I thought Annihilape would be my favourite.. but tinkaton was havin none of that

[@nicholasphigginsalfaro7967]

Scovillain is pretty solid if you use the chlorophyll ability with sun bc then it can be a fast sweeper with both atk. And sp.atk. It could have def been better but it’s solid

[@HypercomboProduction]

It also has Moody.

[@gingersquirrel9453]

*Does top 10 list*- has about 20 pokemon lol but Scovillain is a legit troll. I thought it was the first stage because I saw it before whatever it's pre-evo is (pretty forgettable) and I was excited and struggled as I trained it up to about level 55 before looking up when it evolves to find out it doesn't. I'm so mad they did us like that with the first grass/fire type.

Shoutout to Jif peanut butter, the best not overrated peanut butter in the world!!!😃👍

[@blacksheep7741]

I really hope ash gets the ice dragon pokemom I do think you should take gibble with him time to shine

[@GoinGreninja]

Well...Sad to say that ain't happening with current news floating around.

[@Sir.Bongo1234]

Kingambit is awesome

[@crawdaddy2004]

With Maxcalibur, you can just use Protect the turn after you Glaive Rush…

[@houndrysmagolyteofhope4661]

Gardevoir is solid but honestly it would be better if we just had the new pokemon instead of the old pokemon

[@Riley1393]

I love tinkatons design even tho it doesn't hit as hard as I think it should it's quite disappointing that Tinkaton isn't gonna be used in top vgc teams with such a cool design

[@IXArcanine]

Opinion doesn't match mine Reeee!!! Just kidding I value your opinions and I don't have much time to keep up with all the new stuff so your videos help me know what to look for when I do get to play. Keep up the good work dude.

[@ldmtag]

The evos to old pokemon deserve the hype because nostalgia, just like seasoning in cooking, is a legit component of pokemon's appeal that can not be dismissed. And also Annihilape is a rare combination of not awful design and great competitive potential (let me rimind you of Dracovish or Landorus-T)

[@johnnyhall4335]

10:50 I seriously love this soundtrack.

[@TheSpectator7]

#10 I'm sorry but seriously!? there's people out there who like Dunsparce's lazy evo? #9 HOW??? Baxcaliber's practically overshadowed by all the other Pseudo-legend Pokemon they crammed in S&V! #7 that's arguable... But just wait till you meet Iron Valiant! #5 Says the guy named after a dark type Pokemon, and the hype is Very warranted since this is the first generation to have No. PSYCHIC! Legendaries. #4 Honestly Mycelium Might is pointless when the Ability, Mold Breaker, can also by pass Goldengo's ability so I have to agree. #3 Design wise, yes it coulda been a lot better, but just wait till this thing becomes a Harsh Sunlight weather nightmare!!! #1 We all lived through Gen 8, and Zacian is to blame for how amazing Fairy/Steel Pokemon can be! On top of that it's a well balanced Pokemon with a powerful signature move to make up it's middling attack stat and it can actually take hits to survive. I've seen players use Clodsire through their whole game and it has 70 bts less then Tinkaton!

[@robertperez2262]

You leave the dragon types alone!!! Meanie! Or someone will make a worst moments of mysticumbreon

[@rockowlgamer631]

Scovillain feels incomplete design wise and stat wise Toadscruel could've had a grass version of Prankster and that would've boosted it usefulness Wugtrio should gotten more HP to survive worth a damn Gardevoir while I like it feels boring with maybe a regional variant, like some of the ones I see that are fan made. Although it got a mega so probably wont happen. The Pokemon of Ruin "may" indicate the next region, probably being china or something, i don't know. I just like the idea of a small creature wielding a huge weapon lol

[@netweed09]

For the most part - I absolutely agree with you on this (except the Ruinous mythicals.) 👍 Since were talking hyped Game-changers; many of your listed picks are indeed too slow or simply just mid. The Tinkaton one is a Great pick: Look, I love it too - but lets just see this: running Jolly nature, you're not even outspeeding good ol' Garchomp who will eat it up with a sound EQ. Then; Gigaton Hammer is effectively a base 80 power move from a 498 Atk. That's Good but it's got a built in truant in the move!

[@purehyper124]

Calling it a "hammer wielding over lord" is going too far.

[@bronzejrpg3125]

I’ve never seen anyone talk about scovillian outside out of the 1st day of release. So def not overrated

[@randomtrainerx.3424]

"Tinkaton is overrated" Tinkaton: that's it! Getting me mallet!!

[@zaneheaston8254]

Skeledirge is my most overrated Pokémon, it has no coverage moves outside of Earth Power, & while Unaware is good when paired with Torch Song, it can’t use that combo because it’s Speed stat is abysmal While the Meowscarada & Quaquavel have seemingly endless coverage moves & have the Protean & Moxie abilities respectively as their hidden abilities

[@junnakama3985]

I think dudunsparce is pretty good if you run leftovers, serene grace, air slash or headbutt, roost and ancient power

[@Etherwinter]

I will forever stand by Gardevoir. It's been a staple since Gen 3 for me, since it literally won me Battle Frontier in Emerald. And now it's even gotten stronger with the Fairy typing and all that. Any game I can get a Ralts in, I try to get it as early as possible. I don't think it's overrated at all. It's correctly rated. Perhaps overused, but it's overused for a reason. Scovillain's design is awful. I was so looking forward to a pepper pokemon but it just looks so bland. They should've based it off some of the hottest peppers' names (Carolina *Reaper*, Trinidad *Scorpion*, Naga *Viper*). Baxcalibur's design would be neat if it had more back fins and not just the one.

[@harryruhinda3585]

Where's the pokemon violet play through you promised after the best team

[@kawaiicrossing5047]

I'm surprised you didn't mention skeledirge.

[@albertbobb8214]

I ain’t watching the rest of the video, but from #10 is he really calling them overrated because people simply like the Pokémon themselves in general? How you said two of them aren’t “rocking the meta” but have them in an overrated list 💀 your literally telling ppl they are wrong because they like them 😭

[@MarshtompSolos_7]

Disagree on all of them except for Gardevoir. The first four are awesome, with Glaive Rush you can use protection or simply replace it with Dragon Claw, Scovillain has access to the ability Chlorophyll who makes it practically unstoppable after using Sunny Day.
