Worst Pokemon Characters

This list describes the dumbest, most unpopular Pokemon Characters. I totally/partly hate all of these.
The Top Ten
1 Serena Serena has proven to be a kind and polite girl but she can also be openly rebellious towards her mother, Grace. In Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!, she refused to wake up when Grace ordered her to, and gave a sassy response to her mother's call to watch the news. This tumultuous relationship was best demonstrated when Grace made her practice Rhyhorn riding, an activity Serena had hated doing... read more

Serena is boring. Extremely girly, cooking pastries, into fashion, dressing up, dressing up her Pokemon... I've seen Dawn do this in Sinnoh. What's worse is how her current interest has nothing to do with battling, the core element of Pokemon. Pokemon performers seem really sexist. First of all it's females only. A gender specific competition in Pokemon is odd. Secondly, again, there's no battling. It's like the creators were thinking "Oh. Boys only battle. Girls like to dress up, look cute and dance." Again, somewhat sexist.

In all my years of Pokemon, never have I seen such a useless character. Every one of Ash's companions were unique, and they had original designs and personalities. Serena is just a stereotype barbie doll. All she ever does is think about looking pretty and getting Ash's attention. Everyone says that Dawn and Misty served no purpose and that they were stereotypes. Are you kidding me!? Misty was a cool tomboy who would put on nice clothes every now and then. And sure, Dawn was a girly-girl but unlike a stereotype girly-girl Dawn only put on special clothes to look feminine, not to show off. And unlike the other pokegirls, Serena had no special design. Strawberry blonde hair, blue eyes, sound familiar? Not only that but Serena's goal was super stupid. A Pokemon performer? All they do is dress-up and show-off their Pokemon. They don't even show the true point of the show, battling. If you all noticed, Ash, Brock, Misty, May, Dawn, Iris, and Cilan's goals all had something to do with battling, while Serena just used her Pokemon to show everyone how "pretty" they are. Manipulative, snobby, annoying, no character can come even close to what prissy she is.

2 Ash Ketchum

Ash is the koopalings of Pokemon. Both offer the same pathetic thing with just a different look. The koopalings are garbage characters/bosses who do the same "recycle the boss with a different, lame koopaling skin" routine. Ash is a pathetic trainer who does the same thing of struggling to collect the badges, struggling with the same type of Pokemon in fire/grass/water/regional bird/Pikachu and he ultimately loses at the league while wearing a different outfit. Same crap, different look.

Ash is completely illogical. He tosses his Pokemon aside like old toys just to capture substitutes who present new problems for him to struggle with. In every series Ash has a competitive goal, but he's not fully dedicated to it. He spends more time eating and being distracted by random problems which have nothing to do with his goal. To top things off we don't know why Ash even wants to become a Pokemon master. Does he want to follow in his father's footsteps? Does he want to achieve something his father could not? Perhaps there's some kind of benefit of being a Pokemon master which would help his family? We don't know!

3 Iris Iris is from the Pokemon bwhite version & Pokemon black 2 & white. She ether was the gym leader in Opelucid city in white version. She first appeared to aid Bianca, Burgh, and the playable character when Bianca's Munna was stolen, & acted as a bodyguard. In Black 2 & White 2, she was the champion. Iris specializes in dragon types... read more

Finally, a character who doesn't care about dresses or shopping, and didn't have anger issues. And before you say anything about Misty you have to remember that Misty wasn't really a tomboy. Think about it, Iris enjoyed playing outside, catching strong Pokemon, and competed in a lot of battling tournaments. Misty though, she cared too much about shopping, barely caught any Pokemon, and rarely did any battling whatsoever. Not only that but she always yelled, hit, screamed, and overexaggerated over anything and everything Ash and Brock did. And then you hate Iris just because she called Ash a kid? Well at least she didn't slap him unlike some others.

Iris is hated for calling Ash a kid, Misty is loved despite constantly yelling, complaining about her bike, get violent AND even calling Ash a kid herself. Would you rather be called a kid or be yelled at all the time? People hate Iris for what Misty did too and although Misty called Ash a kid a little less frequently she still did things Iris didn't or barely did. I don't hate Misty, but Iris being underrated and Misty not doesn't even make any sense. Heck, Misty is loved more than Jessie despite not having grown up like the latter and therefore less excuse for her behavior. Jessie actually has a deeper character than Misty and Iris does too. Iris is groomed to be gymleader and has a chill yet with behaviours and she swings on vines, Misty is pretty much where she wants to be and doesn't grow that much. I love Misty too, but her popularity for something other characters are underrated ruins her a bit.

4 Misty Misty, known as Kasumi in Japan, is a character in the Pokémon franchise owned by Nintendo and created by Satoshi Tajiri. She’s the gym leader in Cerulean city & specializes in water Pokemon. In the games, she’s known as ‘the tomboy mermaid.’

In the anime, she’s ash’s first traveling companion. She had three older sisters who did nothing but belittle her, and sick of it & wanting... read more

Misty is the most useless character I've seen in any anime. In Kanto all she did was criticized Ash. In the Orange Islands all she did was criticized Ash while holding on to that useless Togepi. In Johto Misty was somehow even more useless as she just stood in the background talking about what happened in the episode while holding that useless Togepi. Misty is only liked because of nostalgia like those garbage ass koopalings. There's also those fake romantic hints with Ash 4Kids kept making up to try to make her character more interesting. Misty sucks.

Annoying Pokemon abuser, Seeing her return in new series with oh suddenly she loves Psyduck felt so fake because she never liked him in the OS and I couldn't bear to watch all the Moments where oh suddenly she Loves Psyduck, "oh but that's Character development" might you say, but then why she not do it in OS. Also comment saying she get's glorified are right why was Ash so mad with AJ but tolerated her. Also People who think she had any ground to stand on while critizing Ash is funny Because what did she do she was just Annoying background prop

5 Cilan Cilan is one of the three Gym Leaders of Striaton City's Gym, known officially as the Striaton Gym, in Pokemon Black and White. In the anime, he is classified as an A-class Pokemon Connoisseur and traveled with Ash Ketchum in the Unova region. He first debuted in Triple Leaders, Team Threats!.

Cilan may be annoying, but hating him because he replaced Brock is stupid. We all know Brock had to leave but it wasn't just because he stayed so long, it's because of Ash. Why I say that is because Ash is the only child, and he lives alone with his mother so he had no father figure whatsoever. But after he met Brock, Ash kinda started depending on Brock for everything. He looked up to him as a role model and even began taking on some of his personality traits. Eventually though, Ash started to mature, and then grew into his own character which stated giving him not much of big need to depend on him. So he left not only to become a Pokemon doctor but also because he knew Ash could handle things on his own unless he met new friends. And besides, when Ash met Cilan, Cilan didn't really act as a brother or father but more of a close friend. He may have not have as big of a relationship, but he was still important to the plot. And if they hadn't created Cilan, the viewers would've gotten ...more

There is no redeeming qualities in this poor excuse of a traveling companion. It baffles me why this turd even needed to exist because later on he was replaced by somebody who is actually a bit entertaining. If the Pokemon Producers could improve on this insulting piece of fecal matter why did Cilan even need to exist? Oh wait, a piece of fecal matter would probably be offended by that remark! Final verdict, Cilan needs to burn in hell because he is easily the worst travel companion ever thought up. Sweet lord, did they really need to scrape the bottom of the barrel like this?

Conessuier, the worst goal in all existence. Not only does it require to act like a know-it-all jerk... just what the heck is the point of it? Just looking back on what he's said about Ash's Pokemon in their first battle, I wouldn't be surprised that he said those mean things to Burgundy's Pokemon. All this kid does is OBSESS over every little thing, because his real goal is that bland. Dudes worse than most fangirls of anything.

And the awful "Evaluation time! " or whatever... Is this show trying to get 5 year olds interested or something?

I hate Cilan. It makes me sad that people even like him, he's just a collection of all of Ash's previous male companions rolled into one. I felt no personality from Cilan. It was disappointing. It's equally disappointing that people dislike Iris. She's the strongest female companion since Misty, yet people like May and Dawn, and even useless Serena, more than Iris. I blame Cilan.

6 Paul

All I ever hear is people saying that Paul is such a great rival man he is not. Unlike most of a Ash's rivals, Paul did noting but abuse and abandon is Pokemon because they weren't "good enough". All of Ash's rivals cared for their Pokemon and supported them so they could do their best. And even though Gary would tease Ash a bunch it was just a friendly rivalry to prove who was better and even despite this Gary still loved his Pokemon. Paul on the other just yelled at them to do better, even when they trained their hardest? That's messed up.

I don't understand Paul's (or trip's) character. I'm not talking about how he's mean to his Pokemon, but more as to WHY he's mean to his Pokemon. So he has some older brother complex or something? He somehow thought when he was real young that his brother didn't treat his Pokemon poorly enough for some reason? What kind of screwed up thinking made Paul equate his brother losing to the pyramid dude with THREE LEGENDARIES, as to be strong trainer you must treat Pokemon like lesser beings even though they can easily tear you apart? Ash's rivalry may be interesting to see how they clashed, but he was an awful character who made zero sense.

Is Paul really that self-centered and cruel?!?!? Out of all the rivals he is definitely the worst one. All he cares about is power and he shows no respect to his own Pokemon (especially Chimchar) or to other people like Ash and his friends. He's always calling others and Pokemon "pathetic", doesn't care about friendship or kindness, and he cares about nobody but himself! Also, because of the way he treats his own Pokemon with such disrespect how dare he calls himself a trainer! If he's always going to be scolding his own Pokemon for thinking they are weak, worthless, and useless then I don't think he deserves to be a Pokémon trainer!

Paul should be the number one most hateable Pokemon character because he was nothing but an abuser!
He never treated his Pokemon as friends! Only objects of power... which is a shame.
And every time when ash says something nice and positive about Pokemon being friends, he just says the word Pathetic! That always gets on my nerve!
But of course, there are moments that totally gave us satisfaction, like paul loosing a battle against the awesome powerful Cynthia
And what about the battle of paul against the pyramid king? That battle was just satisfying! Paul loosing while the pyramid king hasn't lost any Pokemon.
But yet ash feels bad for paul. I didn't even felt bad for him, HE DESERVED TO LOOSE!

7 Bonnie Bonnie is created by game freak & Nintendo. She was in Pokemon X and Pokemon Y, as Clemont's (the electric type gym leader of Lumiose City) younger sister. She gave out quizzes to trainers who came to challenge the gym, who if they get it wrong would have to challenge a trainer. ...read more.

"I'd say she's a breath of fresh air compared to know-it-all whiny brat Max"

I'd say it's the other way if around you ask me. I mean, sure Max is annoying but at least he was kind of nice and not so hyperactive all the time. Bonnie on the other hand acted wild and stupid. I know she's just a little kid but that's no excuse. They act like they have to make the series about stereotypical females. All the other years we had a competitive tomboy, sweet coordinator, cheerful girly-girl, and a wild jungle girl. In other words, unique females. Now, we have a ten-year-old barbie doll, and pint sized idiot.

I adore Bonnie, (not to mention her "catching" is extremely important to the plotline).
She is nothing like Max, which is ok, Max was annoying and rude and he was extremely smart and sarcastic, but we also get to see his nice side where he cares for his sister and his friends, and we get to see him grown to love Pokemon instead of just strategies

Bonnie is adorable, she's the voice of all the viewers, an adorable narrator to Serena's (annoying) monologue's about Ash. Bonnie's a child, and we see her learn about Pokemon more and more.

to be honest having a child in the show is always entertaining and undoubtedly adorable

To me Bonnie is just so annoying I can see everyone's point but even if she is young at least try to act even the slightest bit of mature like max. I just really hate this character who literally contributes nothing to the show all she does is the same thing over again saying "can you take care of my brother" and "a pokemon wow let me take care of it." Her voice to me is very annoying and is very predictable sometimes I even wish team rocket would kidnap her then lose her in some forest where she could never be found and I hope that there will never be a character like her again in the pokemon series.

How dense can you people get, what has bonnie ever done to ever get on the list. She expresses her love for Pokemon and you think that it's a bad thing. If you want to keep a kid from the Pokemon series on here look no further than that stuck up little no it all brat max he'd be a perfect candidate for this list but take bonnie of this list cause she has no reason to be on it.

8 Dawn Dawn is a character from Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. In the games diamond, pearl, and platinum version she was one of the playable characters you can choose from. She will be an assistant for professor Rowan if you choose her male counterpart, Lucas.

Dawn has also appeared in the anime as the first and only co-star like character in seasons 10-13 . Dawn also appeared for a... read more

Personally, I remember despising Dawn at first. And why was that? Stupid propaganda and shippers that's what. With everyone commenting on how /awful/ and /useless/ Dawn was, I didn't really know any better and I agreed. It wasn't until I started watching the DP series that I understood how not awful and useless Dawn was.

Dawn is one of my favorite Pokemon characters up to date. And no, it wasn't because she was pretty or anything, but it was the character development she's been through. Unlike May, who managed to succeed in everything last minute (forgive me if I'm wrong, it's been a while since I watched the advanced gen, and I do like May thank you very much), I loved how Dawn was pretty much set to fail during the beginning. It showed that contests weren't easy. You had to work hard to reach your goals. And I believe that the writers did a great job with that for Dawn. During the beginning of her journey Dawn was overly confident, and determined to be a Top Coordinator. She got her first ribbon yes, but then she was on a path of failure. She lost /three/ contests. Three. In a row. And it really got to her. She felt like she wasn't good enough. Whilst Ash was succeeding, Dawn was failing, and she got depressed. She wasn't overly confident any more. A simple 'no need to worry' wasn't going to fix anything and she finally understood that. And it was through her journey that she grew, and I loved that about her.

Her contests matches weren't easy wins. I would say Mamoswine was a perfect example, as it was because of his disobedience that Dawn lost. And she still kept on going. And I remember watching the Grand Festival episodes, and feeling so so proud of this girl, because she's achieved so much. It makes me surprised when people call her a Mar Sue, because her flaws are so obvious. And it was through tough development that she had to overcome them.

Maybe people hate her because of the shippers? I don't understand. And for some reason, Dawn... more

9 Harley

Revenge over a stupid cookie is one thing, but to hold a grudge over years and taking it out on a girl who only looked like the one who stole it? Talk about pathetic. All he does is get butt-hurt over May beating him, and no matter how many times May is willing to forgive him, he NEVER can. He's so sad that he dresses up as a little girl. Really, a baby outfit would be a better suit for him since that's what he all acted like. It's surprising he even had a friend (Solidad) from how huge of a self-centered prick he was.

I don't like this guy at all. He's a weirdo & he holds petty grudges against May. Plus he always goes out his way to humiliate her & get her to feel miserable. He gets butt hurt when May defeats him & he also does the most for attention. He sucks so much that I like Iris & Serena better than him.

Harley is one of the most manipulative egotistical self-centered guys I have ever seen. Trying to sabotage may in her contests over a damn cookie is just wrong. You know if he was half the man that I don't think he is he wiuld bury the hatchet sith may and just tell her that he's sorry for what he did.

Harley acts like a whiny bratty toddler, He wanted to do revenge to poor May over a stupid dumb cookie. He throws tantrums when he gets to his house, #HarleyFromPokemonIsAWhinyBaby. I feel bad for May that she has to put up with this idiot. Jar Jar Binks is way better than Harley.

10 Gary Oak Gary oak appeared in the anime series in seasons 1-5 . He was ash's rival and childhood friend . Though they had a dispute once they fought over a rusty pokeball they wanted for luck, which broke after they fought over it . Gary was the grandson of professor oak . He had cheerleaders & his own car. There where a lot of things he did to irritate ash, such as write things addressing ash, to picking... read more

Ok... I don't know who put him on here? I had no problem with him after I admit I wasn't a big fan of Pokemon anime as a kid... Sorry Gary's hater but I would be opposite of shipping of Ash and Misty since I'm not big fan of them since I'm neutral. I'd rather see him getting humiliation or tease from his favorite pesky girl Leaf Green or seeing Gary and Leaf Green would be paired up like a childhood love and hate together! It's like she would've been a nerdy and his personality because of bunch of cheerleader and a cocky all because he brags he's way ahead of you that he has bunch of badges would have been turned real if GameFreak should've done opportunity this! Leaf Green would be a cure for breaking Gary Oak ego and a playboy. Also it would be funny if Gary ego player would start caring about Leaf throughout Kanto and Johto! Too bad GameFreak missed opportunity... It would've becoming so real! :( If they were had time to add female counterpart for Red & Green and Gary's real counterpart reveal Blue it would have make sense! *sigh*

The Contenders
11 Alain

I'm so glad Leon wrecked his stupid charizard-x. Alain was basically Leon in XYZ. He also had any character to him. I heard people say it would've been better if Tobias got curbstompped. Please, you XY(Z) fans just overhype anything from that series. Alien sucked as a character almost as much as Tobias did, but at least we didn't have to waste 5 episodes of Tobias being a Gary Stu & forcing a bond with some younger trainer.

He's more competent than Ash as a trainer but he is so BORING TO WATCH. He's so dull, bland, and predictable because you know the outcome of pretty much all of battles. He wins. That's it. That's all you get. He only lost like 2 times I think and if he beats Ash, then that would make things worse for him. He's such a Gary Stu, the Tobias 2.0 if you want to get real of how much he easily defeats almost everyone he makes eye contact with. Ash if you have to lose to Alain because the writers don't want you to win leagues most of the time, don't beat only 2 of his Pokemon. I beg of yo u.. y ou can do better.

Even though I hate Serena more than Alain, I still hate that guy quite a lot! And no, I'm not gonna go easy on him and try to find positive aspects of his character like one of my favorite anime characters who I will not disclose the name of in fear of people comparing Alain to him. Anyways, if you wanna know how much people hate Alain, I looked at a forum on MyAnimeList.net discussing episode 38 of Pokemon XY&Z, and when I tried looking at the poll results for the episode, a huge majority rated it a 1 out of 5. BY A LANDSLIDE! No higher scoring had as much votes as the 1 out of 5 rating! 2 out of 5 was just the runner-up! Yup. Lots of people hated this episode because of Alain.

The only thing that... Kind of annoyed me was that Ash lost the League while they made it look like he would win this time. But other than that, I don't hate Alain. And still better than Tobias, at least Alain was introduced before, was more than just the guy whom Ash lost to at the League and didn't have a Darkrai and a Latios...

12 James

Really? I know TRio has lost their charm over the years and are just useless nowadays, but seriously he's nowhere near the worst get him off here!

Stupid voice, stupid personality, he's terrible. He's not even a villain, he's just there for little six year olds to point him out a how stupid he is.

I just feel poor for this guy. He deserves better than to be used as an annoying character for Team Rocket.

James is a low class slob who came to my office looking for consulting work and I had zero interest.

13 Jessie

Everyone compares Jessie to Misty when the two are actually different. Yeah, they are both tsunderes but, unlike Misty, Jessie had a bad life. And I know what you're saying "They both had terrible lives." Actually no, Misty just grew up with sisters who teased her every now and then. I mean, I know how it feels but that's no excuse to go around beating people up. Jessie on the other hand grew up in an orphanage and was forced to eat snow and mess like this. Not only that, but Jessie's a villain, which doesn't make her personality that strange. But Misty, you're a hero, so act like it!

I don't agree, Jessie had a bad life, I'm pretty sure her dad died and her mom disappeared trying to catch Mew. She was taken into an orphanage that was so broke she ate snow. She grew up and wanted to be a nurse but failed cause the school was for Chanseys. She meet James at Pokemon tech and got the worst score ever (with James. ) She is also mistreated by guys. She had a awful life that made her the way she is today, her and Misty is the most realistic.

*chokes* No! Not my lovely Jessie! She is my favourite female character, possibly my favourite overall! I just love her so much and I can believe people actually hate on her. Yes sometimes she can come across as snobby or rude but she's really a good person with feelings and at times it might not seem like it but she really cares about James, Meowth and her Pokemon. I'm also a hardcore Rocketshipper. (Seriously Holy Matrimony, watch it now)
In short, I adore Jessie and she definitely does not deserve to be on this list!

Jessie is the only female character on this show I dislike. Sure you may say "but Dawn and Iris are annoying! " Those two may be annoying, but Jessie definitely takes the cake. She's rude, bossy, and completely domineering towards her teammates James and Meowth. She may be the reason why I don't like watching the Team Rocket trio that much.

14 Bianca Bianca is a character from Pokemon by gamefreak & Nintendo. She is one of the rivals & a childhood friend of the protagonist in Pokemon black and Pokemon White. She lives in Nuvema Town, and was held back of being a Pokemon trainer because of her overprotective father wouldn't let her be one. Bianca ...read more.

It depends which Bianca we are talking about. Game Bianca is awesome, really loved her character a lot. Anime Bianca, however... Yes she was funny at times. I didn't hate seeing her or roll my eyes when she appeared or anything. The episode with her father made me kinda emotional, and she is nowhere near the worst or most annoying character the anime has to offer, at all. But honestly, sometimes, she was meh, like wanting to trade her Emboar, her first Pokemon and supposed best friend, for a cute Pokemon she just met. Makes one wonder whether she truly cares for her Emboar - or other Pokemon. Also she made this Zorua so uncomfortable. I get it, Zorua is adorable, but 1/ it doesn't want to hug you and 2/ don't trade your best friend for it just because it's cute! That's what kinda bothered me about her. She came off as uncaring at times. But otherwise I don't hate her

God, I despise her. In the original games and the sequels, she's annoying. In the original Black and White, she's not ready to be a Trainer! She always has her dad hovering over her, including the run-in with her dad in Nimbasa City! Eventually, Elesa barges in, and resolves the situation. Good. She would be better off without her dad, anyway. Stupid daddy's girl. In the sequels, she's improved greatly, but she's still annoying. Especially the parts in Reversal Mountain where she follows you behind your back. And she always tries to be a smart person, but just comes off as a smart aleck! She's basically the Seymour Skinner of the Pokemon franchise.

Oh come this girl shouldn't even be on this list. She needs to have her one website about how stupid and annoying she is. But then her stupidity would probably cause the Internet to crash. Bianca grow up and then you can be a trainer but you have a mind of a five year old but then again a five year old is probably smarter than you.

From this character to up, they are all good (in my opinion). Sure, Bianca can be a little annoying, but she still is unique from all other characters. And yes, Ash may be the worst trainer ever, but he still cares for pokemon. I'm not even sure why everyone else Bianca and above is hated. They are all good characters.

15 Charizard Charizard, known in Japan as Lizardon, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. Created by Ken Sugimori, Charizard first appeared in the video games Pokémon Red and Blue and subsequent sequels. They have later appeared in various merchandise, spinoff titles and animated and printed adaptations of the franchise. Shin-ichiro Miki, the actor who voices James in the original Japanese version of the Pokémon anime, voices Charizard in both the Japanese and English-language versions of the anime. An orange, draconic Pokémon, Charizard is the evolved form of Charmeleon and the final evolution of Charmander. It has two other forms, Mega Charizards X and Y, which are its ...read more.

Are you serious, charizard should not even be on this list. Ok charizard didn't exactly listen to ash at first but that was due to ash's lack of experience at the time. Now he and charizard are almost as close as he and pichachu are. So in my opinion charizard on this list is like saying that a magikarp is the most powerful Pokemon of all time. Seriously this is worst choice on this list that I have seen

I sense something, "overrated" Pokemon are universally hated while "underrated" ones are loved. Don't find any overrated, just had to say this. Also, if it wasn't for the anime, Charizard wouldn't be my #1 favorite Pokemon, though still top 10 worthy. Felt so sorry for him that even when he went Maverick, I still felt upset.

Heh, I bet the people who put Charizard on this list never watched past season 1. Charizard is definitely one of Ash's best and most reliable Pokemon these days, he shouldn't be here.

Charizard is so lazy. I'm surprise it doesn't have the ability "truant". He also makes Ash lose the lead in the first season. No wonder why Ash got rid of him.

16 Burgundy Burgundy is a fictional character who appears in the Pokémon Black & White anime series, a C-class Pokémon Connoisseur and rival to Cilan who she vowed revenge after losing to him in a Gym battle and evaluating her Pokémon she became motivated to study and become a high ranking Connoisseur in order to outdo him, she's obnoxious, bratty and abrasive when it come to her job.

This brat should be higher! She's so annoying. She yells in practically every line she is in, & sometimes adds French into her sentences at the end! What is the French equivalent for webaboo? That's her! She's so pathetic she follows Cilan just to try & harass & upset him, but she fails at doing that. That's not all she fails at though. She sucks as a trainer, never winning a battle. BW ash may be bad at battles, but he has a way better track record than 0 wins 10 loses. She should release all her Pokemon, not ash. He's a way better trainer than she is, & she sucks at being a connawhater too!

Why is Georgia even friends with her?! She's so annoying! She thinks she is so strong while it's quite obvious she's the weakest trainer of all time. She also thinks she's too good for everyone, even herself. All these tiny elements are what makes her annoying. Also, she lost to Trip's Serperior, with two moves, one of them being an attack that is not very effective on it. She needs to stop entering tournaments and actually get better!

Burgundy is your typical French person. Snobby arrogant annoying and just can't win any battles. How much of a loser can uou be the only trainer she ever beat was chilly and he ain't much himself. Burgundy find something else to do like cook French fries because honestly you can't make it as a trainer

This character ruined the show for me. She has no accomplishments other than becoming a C class cona-whatever and earning a trio badge. Now, her entire purpose for being a Pokemon trainer is just so she can beat Cilan. What a lame excuse for a character.

17 Kenny

How is he not already on this list? And how is Dawn on this list and not Kenny? Oh, right. I guess it's because he is so forgettable! I always hated the way he treated Dawn like a trophy, and was jealous of her and Ash's friendship. He is also the reason she was traumatized by Plusle and Minen. He always talked down to her and NEVER cared about HER feelings! He " wanted" her because he had a crush on her but doesn't care about her as a person. He has NO good qualities whatsoever. He's so pathetic that I almost feel sorry for him. Almost.

Kenny is a little prick, that is what he is. I hated him since I first saw him in the anime. His first appearance was making fun of Dawn in front of her new friends (Ash and Brock) by telling them embarrassing childhood stories about her. And we have to believe he wants to be with her? He doesn't respect her. You know what he deserves? Dawn to drop kick him right in the face.

I hated the way he treated Dawn in the series. How are you supposed to be in love with her when all you do is put her down? That's like saying "a boy picks on you because He loves you" Even though that's not love. It never is and shouldn't be. He was the cause of her trauma, because HE WAS THE ONE WHO STARTED CALLING HER DIAMOND DANDRUFF. Who does that to a person they love?! Then he got the nerve to have a battle with ash to determine who Dawn gets to travel with as if she's property. Dawn can make her own decisions. I'm glad she went with Ash. And when the series end, I hope she ends up with that other trainer who liked her. At least he was trying to impress her and not put her down. I don't care what dawn does in her future as long as he's not in it.

I have a brother named Kenny, and he is such an ass! If you ever meet him, would you kill him for me?

18 Georgia

This girl is annoying as hell. She's rude and eats other people's food. She's like a cross between Harley and Ursula, she become a "Dragon Buster" just because she got beaten in a land where dragon Pokemon live. Please. And then every time she loses a match she'll be like "It's not a dragon type so it doesn't count." That girl is freakishly obsessing over dragon type Pokemon

The thing that mostly annoys me about Georgia is how little sense her character makes. She got defeated by a Dragon Pokémon once, so now she dedicated her life to beating dragon trainers?

Then she runs her big mouth every time and demands to fight against dragon types only, WITH her super effective ice type Pokémon. And whenever she's up to fight against a pokémon that her Beartic is not super effective against it's "not worth her time".

Demanding you only fight pokémon when you have a type advantage seems pretty cowardly to me.

And besides that she's basically the same person as Burgundy. One of them was already plenty annoying, why the writers decided to introduce one for Iris AND Cilan is beyond me.

This girl can be a little annoying, but I appreciate that they gave Iris a rival instead of not giving her any like Misty. But I wish she was... Better? She is kind of weak, useless and forgettable honestly.

Oh my good, you always say that your going to beat Iris, but you never do! You always talking, but your so weak that you get out on the first round in every battle tournament!

19 Tobias

When Ash finally beats Paul, gets out of the Top 8 position, and is this close to winning the league, this guy comes in. No, not with your average Raichu or Caterpie, but with a bunch of stinkin' legendary Pokemon. And in the end, he creams all 6 of Ash's Pokemon with 2 and becomes the victor. Either the writers wanted to make Ash seem cooler, or they tried to give us another so-called rival we wanted Ash to wipe the floor with.

If Tobias didn't have those legendary Pokemon by his side it would have been a lot more competitive between him and his opponents so him being on the show is a complete rip off to the other characters on the show. When he won the sinnoh league they should have ended the series right there because he had the most unfair battles in the entire series.

Meanwhile at the writers' desks...
"We can't have Ash win the Sinnoh League! We need the series to go on further! Ash can't win until the franchise ends! "
"I know. Let's have a Gary Stu walk in with two event-exclusive legendaries that Ash never bothered to catch, and have him throw the boy out of the tournament! "
"Excellent idea! Then we can go to Unova without Ash ending his journey! "

In a way, Sinnoh's League loss wasn't as disgraceful as the Unova or Kanto one. Beating two legendary Pokemon after a fierce battle allowed Ash to go out in a blaze of glory rather than losing to an idiot and his overpowered Lucario, or losing to a Charmander and a Pikachu because he couldn't train his Charizard properly.

However, that doesn't mean Tobias isn't the most blatant incarnation of "we will never let Ash win a League (at the time, before Alola) that isn't the special Orange Islands' one, Ash this season battles strategically and has good Pokemon, but we will introduce this character at the last minute just to show that we won't accept for him to win" mentality the writers had. And it was even worse that he didn't have any other moment or was introduced beforehand, like even Cameron was introduced before the League and had some moments before defeating Ash and same for the other people who defeated him in Leagues, but this guy does not. He just shows up with his ...more

20 Stephen

No one cares about what your name is Stephen! You say you want to change your name but if you do, it will still be spelled the same way! It will still be pronounced wrong! Get over it!

I guess all of you who voted for him hate Butch too, huh?

Well, nothing about him really makes me dislike his character. But since he stopped Cilan's "EVALUATING TIME! " I kinda respect the man! Right on, Stephen <3 Favorite B/W character due to that.

Of course, he's the one who made Zebstrika use normal-type moves when it's pure electric-type. This idiot should have known better.

I don't mind Stephan. At least I know how to say his name right. At least he is better than Ash and Serena. He is like Ira Gamagori from Kill la Kill.

21 Clemont Clemont originates in Pokemon XY, created by Nintendo & game freak. is a gym leader of the lumoise city. He specialized in electric Pokemon and is known as a genius. ...read more.

Who put Clement on this list?!?!?! Clement is the BEST traveling companion out of all of Ash's XY companions. Sure, he has a bit of annoying catchphrase in my opinion but he totally makes up for it when the invention he makes explodes, it's just hilarious! That doesn't mean all his inventions are totally useless, he just needs to practice more!

I've always found him to be so annoying.

"Oh look at me I have sciency stuff hurrdurrhaha now let my glasses give off a stupid flash while I fail for comic relief."

Slap-stick, the true pinacle of humour!

I've always found his inventions to be stupid, unrealistic and impractical. Plus the fact he won't shut his mouth about them always pisses me off.

Annoying voice, annoying attitude.

Seriously, he whines all the time, and with the voice actor sucking so bad it makes it worse. Also his whole repeating "The future is now thanks to science" is already more drawn out than Team rocket's daily intro.

Of course I've a remake with a black hair and his name is... JOSE SANTAMARIA, based on Sergey Surkov, who in real is current top Professional Latin dancers!

In Anime itself, I've never see this boy as a good replacement of Brock (And that's why I've never remade Brock)

22 Max

I hate him the most because he's such a know nothing know it all. He thinks he knows everything about pokemon and in his FIRST appearance, he started saying that Ash was weak and that he could have done better. I mean he didn't say it in those words, but that was definitely the gist of it. Normally, I wouldn't hate him just for that since he was just a kid and didn't really know how difficult battling was, but even AFTER he traveled with Ash and May and saw how hard they trained and how difficult coordinating and battling were, he STILL looked down on them for only getting in the top 8. When he bragged to misty saying that may wouldn't have gotten so far without him, I wanted her to punch him. I mean, she's a GYM LEADER, she knows how hard people train, instead, she just tells him to be EASIER on may. And in another episode, I can't really remember much except for the fact that he was left alone for some reason with all the pokemon and May's munchlax was there and he WENT TO SLEEP ...more

Max is a bit overhated in my opinion, yes he wasn't always nice to May but she wasn't always nice to him either, and ultimately Max isn't a bad person and he and May care a lot for each other, it's a normal sibling relationship. If you want a sh itty sibling look at Misty's sisters or Sakura's. If you want a drama queen who starts fights for no reason and one-sidedly belittles somebody for no reason, look at Misty or even Giselle (people love this girl literally just because she's cute). Max could be a little cocky and overconfident at times (so was Misty but since she's a cute waifu no one bats an eye) but he wasn't a bad person. And he is far from stupid, he knows a lot about Pokemon. His first impression was kind of je rky but he evolved past that and you should too.

He's such know-it-all little kid and he know everything. He took Ash's balance badge and upset Ash wins and beat Norman also even cries about it. I wish Max never travels with May, Ash and Brock and stay home with his parents. He doesn't to be a trainer.

He's a spoiled crybaby who sets himself every night. He throws tantrums and he gets May in trouble. He is also a good for nothing brat. What would be funny if Mecha-Streisand from South Park came to Hoenn and stomped on him.

23 Brock Brock is a character from Pokemon and is created by game freak & Nintendo. He was the first gym leader in pewter city, and specializes in rock Pokemon .

In the anime, he travels with Ash after he defeats him . His parents left Brock to take care of nine children by himself while he ran the gym till his dad returned . So he knew how to cook, treat wounds/sicknesses, and took care of Misty's... read more

This list is completely wrong. May, Dawn, Ash, Misty, Iris, Max, and Brock shouldn't be here. Everyone says Clemont was amazing or that Cilan was funny. Well if you ask me, Cilan was an annoying moron, and Clemont was just plain boring and stale. Brock was a great traveling companion. I mean sure, before I though he was just meant to fall hard over pretty girls, but after the Johto series and on, he started to grow on me. He's a mature, smart, and friendly guy who only wants to look out for his friends. Can't you guys see that?

Brock was the worst character in the show. He had no background behind his own interest. Why did brock want to become the greatest pokemon breeder? I have no clue, so why should I care? Combine this with his annoying, running gag of drooling over anything in a skirt and I just couldn't stand him. Brock is one of most overrated characters in the show.

Honestly, I can't hate him. In fact, he's one of my favorites, but it DOES get annoying that he's constantly reduced to someone who falls instantly in love with every attractive female. I mean, he's a great battler when the writers allow him to be, but even then sometimes they make him downright mean. Like in that one advanced generation episode, he just joined a contest because he had a crush on someone else and very nearly won. The issue was that he KNEW may wanted to be top coordinator. Again, not an issue IF HE WAS SERIOUS ABOUT BEING A COORDINATOR, but he ONLY joined because of a girl. Had he won, the ribbon would have been useless. I mean, even if may HADN'T won, we would have at least known that whoever won it was going to use it to go to the grand festival. I'm just saying that in that episode he was uncharacteristically mean spirited. Ash also joined a contest or two if I remember correctly, but I don't think they were official, but even if they were, he would have used the experience for his battles anyway. Brock wanted to be a breeder and doctor, neither of which really justified his entering the contest. I mean, if he had wanted to go back to being a gym leader, I could understand

24 Dawn's Piplup

Very obnoxious & stupid. At least Pikachu has shown that he can deal with Team Rocket on his own. But this self-centered dumbass only knows how to scream when given a chance to show itself to Team Rocket. And it so friken bratty & mostly remains bratty though out the show. To this day I'm confused as to why she didn't choose Turtwig over that brat since how Piplub acted around Dawn. Also his reason for not wanting to evolve is the most stupid and illogical reason to not want to evolve ever. Seriously, just cause you evolved how would that magically make Dawn forget the moment they meet?

This thing is terrible. So gible is trying to learn Draco meteor (I think it's called) & unintentionally always hits piplup. What does this do? Talk to him about it? Ask him to not do it anymore? No. This douchebag imagines him getting heavily scolded by ash & dawn while getting heavily praise by them & grinning bigly about it. He imagines a new group member getting hurt mentally FOR SOME ACCIDENTS! Wish this thing got killed! No wonder a lot of Pokemon from other trainers were unfriendly towards it. They can sense the jerk within him. Also a pretty pathetic Pokemon on its own. Can't even deal with team rocket on its own, & has to resort to screaming to get everyone else to notice them. Jessie, James, & meowth where right on that episode when they said that piplup can't do anything on its own, & he proved it himself. What a dumb@$$!

25 Cameron

Cameron is an idiot, because he was always assuming things. He ASSUMED that trainers only need seven badges, because he thought the eighth badge was only awarded to the champion. He ASSUMED that he did not need to register for the league and almost did not qualify. And he ASSUMED that a full Pokémon battle only consisted of five Pokémon. And yet, he still defeated Ash. What the hell!

I mean, it's like if some lazy college student never went to class, played video games most of the time, ASSUMED when his assignments are due and ASSUMED what day exams are held and somehow gets A+. What a load of bull!

Always and forever annoying! I hate him, not only did he become the worst characters in the BW anime, he is (kind of) like a cheater, he stretches his headband, and it lets go of it so he can have an idea. What is that stupid headband made out of that gives him a damn idea? A buzzer?! Buzzjoy! Nope, not only that, I just can't stand him any More. He's the worst of all out of the other characters, but not as awful as that hypocritical bastard, Stueben, I don't care what's his name or how is it pronounced.

What can you say about Cameron he's as idiotic as they come. I mean he doesn't know that you have to have 8 gym badges to get in the Pokemon league and that a full battle consists of six Pokemon. He ain't no trainer he's a laughing stock. But I gotta say he does add a lot of character to the show. He just needs to figure out how to use it right.

Cameron was a quirky kind of rival. Not the best of rivals and not the most skilled. He's goofy and kinda scatterbrained, but can be funny. But my hatred of him comes from the league. He's a lot worse than Ash in skill, he got lucky because the writers wanted him to lose. It would've been better Ash lost to Virgil in my opinion
