Pokemon Go players are sharing the rare but “useless” pocket monsters they’ve collected for their Pokédexes.

Over the years, Niantic’s mobile adventure has become home to many rare Pokemon from Gen 1 to Gen 9. Some have proven easier than others to capture.

And, admittedly, some of these creatures may not be worth your time in the end, either because of below average defense and attack scores or for other reasons.

However, not all Pokemon Go players have the heart to give up their Pokemon, even if they have no real value. Such a discussion is currently doing the rounds on the Pokemon Go subreddit.

Pokemon Go fans share their rare but “useless” Pokemon

A Pokemon Go player recently posed the following question to the game’s Reddit community: “What’s your most useless, but super rare pokemon?”

He brought his own response to the conversation, pointing to the Shedinja that he has had for some time. “It’s a nice new thing, but that’s all. It’s also my only shundo.”

Redditor explained.

As expected, some Pokemon Go players partied with the rare but useless creatures in their possession. One person mentioned them “Nundo lvl1 Pikachu Outfit”. Another user said their Hundo Diggersby is in the same rank.

Delibird also got some love in the comments, with one fan writing: “Probably my perfect kadoizo, pretty useless but still neat.”

Another Redditor argued that his choice probably trumped everyone else’s. “I think I beat everyone here. I have a male epitrini hando. I can’t even develop it.”

They said about the flying insect.

At least it’s good to know that this otherwise useless Pokemon is appreciated.
