Top 10 Worst Video Game Sidekicks

The Top Ten
1 AI Partner - Resident Evil 5

Resident Evil 5 was clearly designed to be played with two human players it really seems to punish players for playing in single player.

2 Ashley Graham - Resident Evil 4 Ashley Graham is an American model. She has appeared on the cover of fashion magazines such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Glamour, and Elle. In addition, she appeared in several Levi's campaigns.
3 Baby Mario - Super Mario World 2 : Yoshi's Island Baby Mario is the infant version of the major character in the Super Mario franchise, Mario. He is known for his appearances as a playable character in various Mario games.
4 Gilligan - Gilligan's Island Gilligan is a fictional character played by Bob Denver on the 1960s TV show Gilligan's Island and its many sequels.

Gilligan is by one of the most usless sidekick in video games the only reason you need him is to further the game he's constantly getting attacked by the animals and when you need to go down a pit you have to make sure Gilligan goes down first as he dosen't follow you in if you go first and if you lose him you have to go back to the beginning of the level to find him.

5 Navi - The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

She never shut up

6 Sherry Birkin - Resident Evil 2

In resident evil 2 Leon gets the awesome Ada Wong, Clair gets stuck with William and Annette Burkins kid Sherry who can't attack just run.

7 Slippy Toad - Star Fox

At least he's helpful to Fox when it comes to analyzing enemy strengths and such.

8 Daxter - Jak & Daxter

Why is Daxter on the list? He is awesome and I actually prefer him over Jak. (no offense) Sure, he may be bit of a chatterbox but he still isn't annoying. In fact, he can actually be quite helpful.

I actually liked Daxter. Sure, he can be bit of a chatterbox but still useful.

9 Claptrap - Borderlands
10 Nick - Lollipop Chainsaw
The Contenders
11 Cream the Rabbit - Sonic the Hedgehog

Pretty much the most useless character in the Sonic franchise; Is a Tails ripoff gameplay-wise, has an annoying voice, and worst of all, the fanart and fanfics of her are just terrible. It especially is bad when people ship her with Tails or Fox McCloud, which is so wrong. Because Fox already has Krystal in the Star Fox series while Tails has either Cosmo, Zooey or Marine in Sonic X, Sonic Boom and the games respectively.

12 Luigi - Mario Series Luigi, originally a palette swap of Mario named Green Mario, is a major character featured in video games and related media released by Nintendo. Created by prominent game designer Shigeru Miyamoto, Luigi is portrayed as the slightly younger, taller fraternal twin brother of Nintendo's unofficial mascot Mario, and appears in many games throughout the Super Mario franchise, often as a sidekick to his brother.
