Is there a Pokemon more cucked in game than this line?

Is there a Pokemon more cucked in game than this line?
>every generation its every been in its either found two thirds in or in postgame
>you already have a Water type so no way you're replacing it with Dewgong
>outclassed in its own gen by two other Pokemon
>just exists seemingly as filler despite being one of the orignal lot.
I feel so bad for it. Anyone have comparable examples?

Venonat, last time it was available in the regional dex was Gen 2

PokéPortugal came to change that! Back to the regional dex in SV.

Dewgong at least has use in GoD, being one of the only water types with access to Surf. You also get Seel pretty early so you can use it pretty much over half the game.
Venonat gets to be in SV's regional dex at least.

That's a good point, don't recall it in XD.

When the fuck are Colosseum and XD getting switch ports? This is getting ridiculous.

it has that early gen filler syndrome, where all of its stats are mediocre and its movepool is shit.

>you get spheal a few levels before it
They treat seel like shit lol

Spheal doesn't get Surf in GoD though.

it's really sad, even before evolving sealeo hits harder than dewgong.

surf is shit in gen 3 doubles, why would you want it?

>surf is shit in gen 3 doubles, why would you want it?
Untrue. It doesn't hit your ally so it's arguably way better. Tf are you on?

that's exactly it.
it doesn't hit your ally, so it does half damage to both enemies rather than full damage like earthquake or explosion who hit all targets.
spread moves didn't do 75% until gen 4.

>you already have a Water type so no way you're replacing it with Dewgong

if he's your bro, you'll always have a place for him in your team. Dewgong is the best dong you'll ever find. :3

needs a cross-gen evolution or regional form to add some flavour to it
actual dugongs are a more interesting design

On the bright side, if you were able to choose any pokemon as your starter and tried to beat the game as fast as possible, Dewgong would be the second fastest option (behind Mewtwo).

Tauros

>top tier in gen 1
>fell off more and more until it became the literal town bicycle in gen 7

Being the best and going on to job to everyone and their mother later on is worse than being mediocre your entire life.

literally just lapras but with 40 less HP, 15 less attack, and no access to Sing in exchange for 10 more speed lmao
