Both Zubat and Tentacool have a bad rep for being pests that GF likes to spam as fodder for specific environments. But at least Crobat has always been recognized for the value it brings to any team, so people are usually willing to give a pass to the Zubat line being everywhere.

I feel like Tentacruel is pretty much "the Crobat of the seas". Fast, defensive, great typing and a varied movepool: he's amazing ingame. But for some reason way less people tend to give its line a chance.

Tentacles are unlewdable & unappealing. Fangs, that's the stuff.

Not entirely sure if Heliolisk counts as 'underrated', since its pre-evo appeared a lot on promotional art back in the day, but oh well. Contributing to this lovely thread anyways

Idk... I've seen it get more love here than lots of other Pokemon, but I think that's mainly because it's viewed as cute and cuddly.

>>56208761
wish he was available earlier in SM, I was so peeved that I barely got to use him. but then I hatched a modest shiny Drampa later and used in the battle tree so that made up for it I guess. anyway, love this guy

Lovely duo. They're really cool designs but I feel they got cursed into irrelevancy because of their shitmon status even for ingame standards.

The thing is Swalot at the very least has a very interesting and unique movepool and some decent bulk to make use of it.
Carnivine on the other hand has nothing. It's too frail, Levitate does nothing for it, and it needs breeding just to get some of its best moves.

Musharna got it pretty rough due to a combination of subpar exposure and detrimental ingame factors during its debut gen.

To begin with it's directly competing with several other fantastic Psychic types, and more specifically with Reuniclus' line: another tanky mono-Psychic that trades having slightly worse bulk for much better firepower.
The fact it evolves with a stone is also a negative when comparing it to the other Psychic lines that don't have to worry about waiting for learning moves: BW had the habit of leaving old reliable TMs locked to the postgame (Psychock, Calm Mind, Psychic) as a way to push players to try out the new moves, but for Musharna this means you're either stuck with Dream Eater shenanigans or forced to carry an extremely frail Munna for a good while.
And then it gets worse in BW2 because you cannot even get one until postgame.

The saving grace is that at least you get to see it multiple times in the first games thanks to being the ace mon of one of your rivals.
