If I see it in the wild, I won't even click on......?

List the one singular mon that you just hate to catch. Please explain why you would rather just walk away without trying.
Mine is Murkrow. It has no value on attack or defense. The low max CP makes it pretty much worthless in the current meta. It doesn't evolve, so no reason to farm it. The low capture rate, 20, makes it hard to catch without using multiple balls. It tends to run away at what seems to be a higher rate then the 10 it is written up as. So, once you have one for the dex, or a high level high IV one for your collection, if you are a collector, then I see no reason to ever click on one again.

Good post. For me it's gonna be natu that I dislike the most.

Murkrow I consider a challange for an excellent throw and it's a use for my ultra balls. Also they are OK prestigers if high CP

Oh, those Natu. At least Murkrow has the good grace to not hatch from eggs.

I only catch Murkrow because Honchkrow eventually...

I almost always just catch everything I see, but the one I'm most likely to ignore is Sunkern. Since they need an item to evolve, it's pointless catching extras, and they're so weak as they are, they're pretty much useless. Plus it always seems to take a great ball to catch them. Murkrow I can use once as a throw-away prestiger, but Sunkern isn't even good for that.

Ignore:
Murkrow, weedle, venonat, spinarak, psyduck, goldeen, and staryu.

I avoid goldeen sometimes.
I have a useless 100iv seaking, not even prestige worthy.

I forgot about goldeen. That's definetely the mon I dislike the most.

Of course it's Murkrow. Just today I caught a 500 CP one and wasted 6 Pokeballs and 3 Great Balls. I should have just gone by.

Pidgeotto it eats up like 20 pokeballs 10 razzberrys and runs away I hate them

Murkrow's also the only one I ignore normally. I already have my dark medal and a few wonder murkrows, as well as a range of murkrow prestigers with feint attack/foul play. I don't see much benefit of continuing to toss ultra balls at these hard-to-catch unevolved pokemon.

As many others, Murkrow... It's a pain to catch and I already have 1.5k candies, which is more than enough for Honchkrow.
I still catch the low CP ones for stardust, though...

I catch everything if I have time, just for the stardust.

  • Murkrows that are not either very low CP (hence easy to catch), or very high CP (hence useful for prestige)

    • Sneazels, same criteria.
    • Evolved forms with a non-useful CP, but which aren't low enough CP to be easy to catch.

Everything else gets caught unless I'm being lazy or in a moving vehicle.

It depends on my situation, if I am walking or on the bus. But I can say the obvious murkrow, chikorita is a pain in the ass and not a great final evolve, but for some reason I can't stand Paras and Venonant. I just think they blow and I practically never catch one with only one ball.

I used to ignore Venonat too. Seemed like every time I'd try to catch one, they'd jump out of the way five or six times in a row before I could finally land a successful throw. They don't seem quite as jumpy anymore, though, plus they get a lot of my nanab berries now.

Pretty much most things! Really there only things I'll even click on after Karp, dratini, evee, or anything rare for my biome.

Paras, I hate that mon, he escapes a lot, murkrow 2nd and a special mention in the podium for spinarak, too much candies to evolve and they're everywhere!!

I tend to use great balls/razz on Murkrows actually...

I catch them all for exp and dust if I can.

Kakuna and Metapod.

I don't always ignore everything entirely like if I'm on my couch I get a single spawn once an hour so whatever that is i generally try to catch it. I still catch murkrows for the dark medal, though after that I will probably mostly ignore them, also venonat, paras, spinark, hoothoot, and goldeen are high on my list ones to pass up if I am not in a catch everything mode or am low on balls.

Ignore usually Goldeen - utterly worthless.

I actually will seek out Murky - still needed for my gold medal, and would like to have a few high-level wonders and 1000 candy for next gen... Also double-dark movesets do great as a throw-away prestiger vs the Espeons that ppl have been placing in nearby gyms. One razzberry + great or ultraball (depending on CP) plus a curve throw works well for me.

Murkrow
If I want to throw a stack of balls on the ground, I don't need to wait for a spwan to do it.

Kakuna and Murkrow are an absolute waste of balls. At least other common trash are useful for farming stardust and mass evolutions.

That guy, @mindrivet is dang right! Honchkrows will come one day, so it'makes collecting a good Murkrows for the future transformation a reasonable action.
