However, the rodent surpasses the problems in Unova, with Patrat being the Pokemon with the everyman base of operations stat full in Generation V, sitting behind Sewaddle'southward 310, with a beggarly 255.

Luckily, this Pokemon volition evolve into a decent sweeper. At level 12, it volition have fully evolved into its final grade, Vivillon, which has several unlike forms, all of which are beautiful.

Alola'southward regional bug, regional bird, and regional rodent all escape the fate and then many of their brethren face up in other regions. In Alola, the weakest Pokemon title goes to Wishiwashi, a Water-type fish Pokemon whose entire gimmick is its pathetic stats.
