Game news They are truly hideous! We tell you about the ugliest Pokémon in the license

Last week was the anniversary of the European release date of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen (20 years already doesn’t make us any younger). The license has continued to evolve over time. If at the beginning, there were only 151 Pokémon, there are now 1025 of them. And there is something for everyone: whether they are cute, stylish or terrifying. but also extremely ugly.

Tastes and colors, all that

And we start with Miasmax, a 5G Pokémon composed solely of trash and garbage, to the point where the Pokédex nicknames it the garbage Pokémon. In another category (too much makeup), we have Denticrisse, a water-type 7G Pokémon with the appearance of a multicolored fish. We continue with the 6G water Pokémon category with Golgopath, a sort of bizarre colossus with seven hands, one of which serves as its head.

Besides, hideous legendary Pokémon exist! For example: Fortusimia. Part of the trio of legendaries from the first part of the Scarlet/Violet DLC: The Turquoise Maskeveryone agreed that he was ugly, as soon as he was announced.

A very relative appearance

So while one might wonder what was going through the designers’ heads for certain Pokémon, the fact remains that, for the most part, it’s normal for them to be ugly. Representing an animal or a concept is not meant to be “beautiful”.

We can even continue with a 2G Pokémon, Insolourdo, inspired by the Tsuchinoko, a Japanese snake whose existence has never been proven. However, over time the creature gained popularityto the point where fans demanded an alternate form or evolution. So, of course, there are still many Pokémon that we haven’t mentioned.
