17+ Ugliest Pokemon Of Every Type (Ranked)

Updated July 25, 2022 by

Pokemons, we all love them. They are magical creatures that we all wish were real. Some are cute, some are majestic, some are strong, others not so much but we don’t care, we still want to own one.

It’s nice to like something that much. So I don’t know why I want to ruin that for you but since it was ruined for me, accompany me in my misery.

I’ll make sure you never wish you have a Pokemon again with the help of that list of the ugliest Pokemon of each type. And if you just played the game and haven’t watched the series, be sure to check out the Pokemon Watch Order and Filler List.

 

18. Flying: Vullaby

15/20	7/10	7/10	29/40

Believe it or not, this one has better chances of winning a beauty pageant compared to the other Pokemons that are on this list.

The more I look at Vullaby the more I think that I realize that he is actually kinda cute just like Nyanko Sensei, don’t you think or am I just weird?

However, I still can’t get over the fact that he is wearing a huge diaper with a heart in the middle and that is nothing less than a colossal blunder that has to be reported to the fashion police. 

Add the angry look to the mix and he is just an overgrown baby bird that still wets the bed at night and that shell is probably filled with filth. Can’t imagine what he must smell like!

Putting his unsettling appearance aside, he is shockingly quite the powerful Pokemon. Vullaby can easily get the upper hand in battle and is very flexible. His stats are nothing to laugh at, and his move pool is lengthy allowing him to fill multiple positions in his team.

 

17. Rock: Rhyperior

Don’t kill me for saying this, but the first time I evolved my Rhydon was also the first time I wished I could take an evolution back, and that though only is actually a disgrace for us Pokemon trainers, but that’s just how ugly he is!

I let my adorable Rhydon go for this wanna-be tank-like rhinoceros who fused with a narval by mistake and is ready to go to war with an orange bulletproof vest on that will probably get him killed considering how flashy it is.

His design just doesn’t make any sense, however, his power gives him some of his pride back. That “thing” has a maximum CP of 3869, his attack power is 241, his defense is right up there as well with a score of 224, and he is considered one of the best-attacking Rock-type Pokemons.

Macho is another definition of sexy otherwise you would have definitely found him in the top 10 of that list. So, guys, a kind piece of advice, if you are as ugly as this guy, I recommend you hit the gym and impress the girls with your ripe muscles instead.

 

16. Ghost: Cursola

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
13/20	6/10	7/10	26/40

For those who watched D-Gray Man, what does Cursola remind you of? Doesn’t it look just like an Akuma? It also gives off the same kind of super creepy vibe like it’s randomly gonna start screaming and coming at you for no reason.

And those tentacles that are coming out of him remind me of caterpillars, but caterpillars that will never turn into beautiful butterflies, so they just give you goosebumps all over.

The guy who designed it was definitely an airhead or drunk when he created it. If not, I would like to know what goes on in the mind of someone who can come up with something this dreadful and still go through it in one of the most famous series ever.

The kids are going to have nightmares because of him or maybe that was the plan? Confess, that was the plan, wasn’t it?

And it looks like they made it a point to make the obnoxious one that we didn’t want in our game strong because even Cursola is kind of a badass on the battlefield.

His boasts are as high as 145 and he has an annoyingly powerful offensive Ghost-type that can break most defenses. Even his defense is topnotch. This means we are stuck with his smug face from the beginning till the end since he will be a tough opponent to remove from the arena.

 

15. Ground: Hippopotas

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
12/20	6/10	5/10	23/40

First of all, they threw a hippopotamus with skin disease cartoon frog eyes to complete that despicable masterpiece of ugliness uglier than any Frog Pokemon combined. And to make it worse, he is fat. Not body shaming just pointing out a fact.

There is a limit to how repulsive you can draw something and the poor Pokemon has to look at himself in the mirror every day. Plastic surgery can’t save him and I’m sure he has some suicidal thoughts lurking not so deep inside.

He reminds me of someone and I can’t put my finger on it… Ohhh, I know what he looks like, he looks like a Muppet! If he ever loses his job as a Pokemon, I’m sure they will welcome him into their ranks with open hands.

As for his strength, he has absolutely nothing noticeable about him, unlike his beautiful appearance.

You can throw him in the same useless category as Kricketune and yet his trainer always looks proud when summoning him, she must be blind. She is blind, no other explanation. Even personal taste wouldn’t explain liking Hippopotas.

 

14. Grass: Amoonguss

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
11/20	6/10	6/10	23/40

I know that after drawing so many Pokemons, any normal human being would run out of design ideas, but dressing the mushroom as a Pokeball is stretching it a bit.

At least draw the mouth the same way, the pink duck face shouldn’t be near that Pokemon and yet it’s on him.

And what’s with all the curves, I don’t know why but it’s disturbing to a perturbing level just like that phrase, sounds super weird when you say it out loud. Plus you can’t give an intimidating angry look to something that looks that pitiful.

Technically, his design was inspired by a boxer, but he is more like the guy who holds the training pads. That job still requires some strength and Amoonguss holds a tiny bit of power. One thing I’m sure of is that he would make a killing at Whac-A-Mole. He doesn’t even need a hammer, it’s naturally integrated into different parts of his body.

 

13. Fairy: Galarian Weezing

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
11/20	6/10	5/10	22/40

I don’t even know how to describe that thing, let alone compare it to something. One thing is certain, Galarian Weezing is definitely unique, and I don’t mean it is a good way here.

When you first look at him or them, you might think of a conjoined twin pair of cauldrons, when you take another peek, he looks like a radioactive bomb, you know those from that super old game that no one knows how to play, what was its name again… Ah, yes, Minesweeper.

If the author wanted to make him this repulsive, at least don’t make him a fairy-type Pokemon, the kids in us still like to think of them as pretty and sparkly, not creepy and leaking poison.

His stats are, like him, pretty pathetic: 85 SP Attack, 90 Attack, 70 SP Defense, 120 Defense, 60 Speed, and 65 HP.

They say nobody is perfect and that’s true. The contrary should be also applicable, nobody is a 100% loser, but I’m definitely finding a lot of them in that list.

 

12. Electric: Stunfisk

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
9/20	6/10	6/10	21/40

Is it a Frisbee? Is it a UFO? Is it a bird? Is it a fish? Maybe a weird ancient Egyptian God? No, it’s a Pokemon! And that’s super hard to swallow.

Some fat dude sat on the poor thing’s face and flattened him whole, it’s a miracle he can still fly in that miserable condition.

I mean some super ugly Pokemon can turn out cute if you get used to them, but this one, there is no way I find him even 1% appealing. Even the way he flies is cringe.

Unsightly and annoying, I just can’t get it around my head that there are Pokemons even fouler than Stunfisk coming up.

To the very least, he is not completely a lost cause since he can be quite the powerful ally, pooping on enemies can be quite effective. Just kidding, that’s not one of his abilities, although it’s not such a bad idea, no?

 

11. Bug: Kricketune

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
9/20	6/10	5/10	20/40

A cockroach… with a good old French style mustache… and swords instead of hands… at least its color is matching the characteristics’ of that insect. Oh, and its size, Kricketune is tiny but comparing him to a shrimp wouldn’t really be an insult for him, more like an upgrade.

So, for me, please crush him and turn him into smithereens. I can’t stand bugs, especially cockroaches, they are sneaky creatures and I’m sure this Pokemon is just like them. He deserves extermination!

At least, for the first time, his stats are worthy of some lowly horrid insect that is the definition of disgrace.

Kricketune is undeniably just awful. He is just a mediocre Beedrill who doesn’t even have speed as a trump card. He lacks resistance, has a pitiful defense, and can barely fill the role of support in a team.

Not just ugly but also useless, don’t waste any Pokeballs on that piece of work, he doesn’t even deserve the trouble of catching him and let alone training him.

 

10. Steel: Probopass

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
8/20	5/10	6/10	19/40

Probopass is the Mr. Potato of the Pokemon world.

He has the nose of an Easter Island statue, the mustache of an unemployed middle-aged man, his head is designed just like a Lego, his hands have bird faces on them and blue and red will never be two colors that will look good together.

Sorry, this is not a mustache more like curly nose hair and that is disgusting.

He would’ve been a bit less disturbing if he was tiny, but no, they just had to make him huge for the pleasure of all the fans.

I can’t imagine what can get stuck in his beard when he sneezes and the people around him for that matter.

There is absolutely nothing good about him except that his defense is acceptable. Nothing gets past that nose of his, unfortunately…

 

9. Ice: Crabominable

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
6/20	4/10	7/10	17/40

His name actually says it all, this Pokemon is an abomination. That Yeti of the ocean looks like a mutation between a gorilla, a polar bear, and a spider.

He already looks ridiculous and yet they had to give him stupid-looking eyes, nerd crocked teeth, and the same blond hair of a kindergarten cute little girl.

No one can look at him and keep a straight face. If ever pops out on the show in the middle of the night we’ll be sure to have nightmares for at least a week.

He always has that idiotic grin on his face and or not. His appearance alone is enough to make any enemy retreat at supersonic speed. No one can fight with something like this in front of them.

At least they made the effort to match the colors they used for his design or I’m sure there would’ve been petitions demanding that he gets kicked out of the Pokedex.

So many fans were super excited to finally discover what might be Crabrawler’s evolution. You can imagine how disappointed they might have been when the sad and dumb little creature was revealed.

He can, at the very least, hold his own in a battle so that’s that, but I would feel super embarrassed to take him out on an arena and present myself as his trainer. 

 

8. Dark: Guzzlord

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
6/20	5/10	5/10	16/40

In the 10th position, we have the infamous Guzzlord, king of the bizarre and the unsettling. A gigantic pumping monster with parasitic living claws coming out of his mouth.

I don’t even know where to start making fun of that horrid design that is no better than some deranged kid toddles.

However, his ugliness was in fact done on purpose since it’s the sign that he comes from a parallel twisted mysterious dimension.

Claws, spikes, sharp teeth, a tail that looks like a Morning Star. Not the pretty shiny thing in the night sky, the medieval weapon in case you didn’t get it.

The freak who designed him really did an impressive job considering this is what he was going for.

And the hilarious thing is that despite his terrifying appearance and the overpowered vibes that he gives off he is actually weak, a first-class loser.

When we say never let appearances fool you, the weak-looking ones are strong and the fake OPs are making fun of us.

 

7. Fighting: Gurdurr

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
4/20	4/10	5/10	15/40

I don’t know how to pronounce his name so I ended up shortening it to make the sentences make sense in my mind. Let’s just call him Gur from now and don’t make any naughty cat moves as you do so.

Gur can only be described as a buffed serial killer clown with a love for overgrown bodybuilder muscles.

He looks so arrogant and that look turns super funny thanks to the clown nose and the afro hair that the designer decided to stick on his face.

Veins that are ready to burst are all over his body and I have the unshakeable desire to pop them all one by one.

His best friend is a steel pipe and that’s probably his only friend. No one in their right mind would hang out with a creep like him.

The worse thing is, all those muscles are just for show and are steroid induced since he is not strong at all! He is a cheat and a pretender of the worst kind.

 

6. Normal: Exploud

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
3/20	3/10	7/10	15/40

Still here? Not tired yet? I sure am, I can’t handle so much ugliness in one day. And yet I’m still going strong for you guys with Exploud.

He is a humanoid dragon-like Pokemon that should more accurately be compared to a goblin and not a majestic fantastic beast.

He has bloodshot eyes, is always angry and ready to bite with a constant wide open mouth that reveals everything he ever ate in his life, in detail. A piece of information that we never wanted to know…

Despite the fact that he is minuscule, a fitting size for the parasite that he is, he is actually pretty dependable in battle and might be the trump card that will grant you victory. Although he is no one’s favorite, most trainers bear with his horridness.

 

5. Fire: Darmanitan

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
2/20	2/10	8/10	14/40

Oh my god, his smile, just remove that creepy smile from his unsightly face, and then we can move on with this list.

He is just a sweaty hairy fireball and always looks happy as if he was proud or something. What bothers me the most is that his eyebrows remind me of Rengoku and I don’t want to put that awesome character in the same league as him but my mind won’t listen to me!

He is nothing like him. We can agree on that, no sign of the flame Hashira in that Pokemon. Don’t mind me, I’m trying to convince myself, it’s not working and I’m about to go crazy.

And of course, he has to be one of the super-strong Pokemons that everybody wants and he uses fire. What are you trying to do to me? That thing is too dreadful to exist.

 

4. Water: Bruxish

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
1/20	1/10	8/10	12/40

That fish will make your heart melt, literally, after just one gaze. Not only will she give you a heart attack while trying to seduce you, but she will also probably try to eat you alive right after even if you don’t reject her which you probably will.

A confident seductive fish that never saw her own reflection in the mirror and I’m planning to go buy her one now, maybe she will feel our pain and go hide under a giant rock for the rest of her existence.

If you pay her well for her services, no underlying meaning here, her ATK and speed are boosted to the point of turning her into an extremely powerful warrior. And the fastest she is, the less clearly you can see her, so everybody wins.

 

3. Dragon: Dracovish

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
0/20	0/10	8/10	10/40

I can’t anymore, what is this?! Just why, why would someone draw something like this, why do you hate your fans so much?

A fish head maybe and the body is a dragon tail… I, I don’t know, I can’t describe this, I can’t make sense of that Pokemon, it shouldn’t even be called Pokemon, that’s a monster, plain and simple.

They should’ve used him in some horror anime, not in a kids’ show, that’s not good for their fragile hearts.

And you can’t start to understand how fast he is underwater. He could appear just behind you in a matter of seconds and in stealth mode nonetheless. Good thing he can’t live on the solid Earth or we would have to add horror to the Pokemon genre list.

 

2. Poison: Alolan Grimer

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
1/20	1/10	7/10	9/40

We all know that God in Spirited Away was introduced as a stink spirit. You all saw what was the reaction of all the characters when he came in, you all saw how they fled as their lives depended on it.

The smell, the filth, well, Alolan Grimer is his Pokemon alter ego, the only difference is that he will never, ever be clean.

Just by looking at him, you can imagine what his touch on your body might feel like and the sudden need to take a long nice bath would materialize in your mind.

He is all sticky and his dumpster green color gives off the impression that he is a walking trash can that has some puke left on his mouth after a wild night of partying. I’m sure he is the type to take a liking to you and stick to you till death pulls you apart.

Although you wouldn’t want him on your team, Alolan Grimer is undeniably a formidable Pursuit trapper with good enough moves to disregard his looks and bear with the ugliness.

 

1. Psychic: Jynx

Beauty	Appeal	Power	Total
0/20	0/10	5/10	7/40

This is finally over! And in the first position, we have the one and only Jynx! Now I know that she has badongkas and long hair and everything but you won’t convince me; that Pokemon is no girl.

When I look at her, the first thing that comes to mind is Sanji’s hell on Momoiro Island. Jynx has a slight resemblance with every single one of the Island residents, I might even have spotted her running on the beach with them.

And the fact that they tried to give her a bit of a human appearance makes her even less pleasing to the eyes. The Gala dress is the cherry on top of the cake but I’ll accept it since anything is better than seeing her with nothing on.

Not strong but not weak, it’s better not to have to look at her even when you are in a desperate situation, she won’t be of any help, just throw her away.

 

Conclusion

Let’s wrap things up, I’ll be writing something, anything about something beautiful now if you don’t mind, to clear my thoughts and get the horrid images out of my head.

Before that, tell me, if you could erase from existence just one of those Pokemons, who would it be? Personally, I’d off Darmanitan, I hate him, no surprise here, hein? I was kinda a little angry while talking about him.
