Pokemon Scarlet and Violet brought a lot of new Pokemon into the franchise, but players are now debating which ones are the most forgettable. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have introduced 114 new monsters to the Pokedex, including the ones in the base game and monsters added through DLC, but they weren't all created equal in players' minds.
Releasing in November 2022, the pair of games taking place in the Paldea Region are not the most well-received among Pokemon players, earning Pokemon Scarlet and Violet middling reviews from critics and mostly negative fan reviews on Metacritic. Still, the pair of games took the series in a new direction as the first mainline Pokemon game to take place in a fully open-world setting, which has set it apart from games in the previous eight generations. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet also gave players a lot more options for building their teams, offering up more new Pokemon than any game since Generation 5.
At the top of a lot of players' lists of most forgettable Paldea Region Pokemon is Brambleghast (and, presumably, Bramblin, its unevolved form), the Grass/Ghost-type Tumbleweed Pokemon. While some players discussing the topic on Reddit noted that Brambleghast saw some competitive use in the game's early days, its absence on any notable trainers' teams along with it being all but forgotten in the DLC released for the pair of games didn't make for a memorable experience for some players. Adding to this, Brambleghast hardly looks like a Pokemon, and some players have criticized its move pool, as it can only learn 15 moves without the use of TMs, maxing out with Power Whip at level 55.
Even with all of its lack of action in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet compared to some more popular Pokemon, Brambleghast does seem to have its defenders. Some players praised its Wind Rider ability, which lets Brambleghast avoid all damage from wind moves, most of which comes from damage types that would normally be super effective against a Grass-type Pokemon.
While Brambleghast may not be the most memorable Pokemon introduced in Generation 9, other players have offered up other Pokemon for the title of most forgettable. One name that popped up multiple times was the oddly coiffed Squawkabilly, a Normal/Flying-type Pokemon resembling a parrot with a pompadour. While Squawkabilly comes in four different plumage colors, several players seem disillusioned with its common type pairing, giving it nicknames like «rock n roll Chatot» and «singing Taillow.»
Pokemon Scarlet & Pokemon Violet are the main entries in the series for Generation IX. They introduced over 100 new Pokemon and brought players to the Paldea region.

Pokemon sidestepped its regularly scheduled slate of Funko Pops to release a Cresselia figure at C2E2 this year. It now looks set to do something similar during this year's San Diego Comic-Con, taking place at the end of July, as another rare Pokemon will seemingly be getting the Funko Pop treatment at the event. Cresselia and the many other Pokemon to have already been turned into Pops will be joined by Arceus, and a first look at the figure has already been shared online.
There aren't many ways left to put a twist on Stardew Valley, but suffixing it with "in space!" oughta do it. Little-Known Galaxy is out in a week, and currently has a demo on Steam, where you can sample many of the delights that you're used to from a Stardewlike when you're new in town: meeting the locals, growing potatoes, and tidying up the place. Also, raising alien pets, seeking out new life, and new civilisations... It all takes place on a spaceship, you see, and this has some ramifications to playing the game beyond reskinning everything to be shiny metal instead of picturesque mud. It's an intriguing proposition.
