10 Absolute Worst Pokémon - Ranked

10. Voltorb/Electrode

Neither Voltorb or Electrode's existence make a lick of sense.

Keep in mind that Pokémon - excluding a handful of notable outliers like Mewtwo - are naturally occurring, not artificially engineered, creatures, so how it came to be that a living being adopted the form of a man-made object, and one that provides the most illogical form of camouflage imaginable, no less, boggles the mind.

It's okay, though, your Trainer's Pokédex has the answers:

"It was discovered when Poké Balls were introduced. It is said that there is some connection."

Uh huh, and what connection might that be, Game Freak? One deliberately left obscure so as to justify a lazy design choice?

Wherever you find yourself while reading this, survey your surroundings and pick out the most basic inanimate object in view, slap a pair of eyes on it and voila, you just designed a Pokémon more imaginative than Voltorb.

If you're having trouble thinking of an evolution, don't sweat - turn the pre-evolution on its head and give it some gnashers. Sorted.
