Pokemon: 8 Designs That Don't Make Any Sense
Pokemon come in all shapes and sizes, but the following designs stand out for being truly bizarre.
Some great creatures are available in Diamond & Pearl, and some have become fan favorites over the years; Garchomp, Lucario, and Gallade to name a few. Gen 4 is home to some truly great Pokemon, which include a lot of Mythicals and Legendaries. In terms of stats, however, some Pokemon in Diamond & Pearl are simply stronger than others.
Updated October 24, 2024 by Ben Painter: Generation 4 Pokemon hold a special place in the hearts of many fans. It was kicked off with Pokemon Diamond & Pearl in 2007 and followed up with Pokemon Platinum in 2008. However, this list does not include any new Pokemon (or returning ones from previous games) in the game's follow-up entry, so Rotom's alternate forms with their boosted stats miss out.
✕ Remove Ads
Some great Pokemon are available to be caught in these games, including those found in Sinnoh after the National Dex is accessed, which strangely includes some brand-new 'mons for Gen 4. As such, this article has been updated to feature even more of the strongest Pokemon found in Pokemon Diamond & Pearl.
22 Lickilicky
Base Stat Total: 515
- Type: Normal
- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Evolve Lickitung
Generation 4 was great for connecting the previous generation's Pokemon back into the franchise, and a great way that they did this was with new evolutions and pre-evolutions. One Pokemon that benefited was Lickitung with its new evolution, Lickilicky, which came with some big buffs to its stats, mainly in HP and Defenses, but this Pokemon is handy in all areas apart from Speed.
✕ Remove Ads
To add a Lickilicky to the roster of Diamond & Pearl, gamers must first obtain the National Dex and have access to Swarms. Lickitung will spawn at Lake Valor in certain encounters. It will then evolve into Lickilicky once leveled up while knowing the move Rollout, which it learns at level 33.
Lickilicky's Base Stats:

21 Luxray
Base Stat Total: 523
- Type: Electric
- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Evolve Luxio
Luxray has 523 points in its base stat total and is a pure Electric-type, a great typing to have. It has a single weakness to Ground, resistances to Electric, Flying, and Steel, and its STAB attacks hit Water and Flying super effectively. Dragon, Grass, and Ground all resist its own type, which is really the only major flaw.
In terms of stats, Luxray suffers a bit. While it has great Attack and serviceable Special Attack, it is somewhat slow and has middling defenses, making it easy to KO. Players who want to take advantage of Luxray's fantastic typing and stats are in luck, as this is one of the easiest Pokemon to get in Sinnoh. Shinx, Luxray's pre-evolution, is available immediately on Routes 202, 203, and 204.

- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Evolve Eevee
✕ Remove Ads
Eevee has been ever present in the Pokemon franchise ever since the original titles, Pokemon Red & Blue. In Generation 4, two new Eeveelutions were introduced, Leafeon and Glaceon. However, Eevee is tricky to acquire. The first way is getting the gift Pokemon from Bebe in Hearthome City after getting the National Dex. The other is to catch it in the Trophy Garden, but that is a rare spawn, and it only appears at certain times.

Pokemon: 8 Useless Evolutions In The Games, Ranked
The Pokemon franchise is filled with various creatures, many of which aren't actually all that necessary to have around as evolutions of others.
Once Eevee is in the party, it can evolve into seven different types, so it is up to the player which direction they take. The two new ones evolved while being leveled up near the Moss Rock (Eterna Forest, Leafeon) or the Ice Rock (Route 217, Glaceon). All Eeveelutions share the same base stat total of 525, but they are spread out in different ways - some are better on offense, some on defense.

19 Hippowdon
Base Stat Total: 525
- Type: Ground
- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Route 228, Evolve Hippopotas
✕ Remove Ads
Sharing its base stat total with the Eeveelutions is the Ground hippo, Hippowdon, who specializes in HP, Attack, and Defense but is less than desirable in other respects. However, it won't be much of a problem as a high-powered Earthquake will leave opponents in ruins. It can also take a hit quite nicely as well.
Hippowdon can be found as a rare encounter on Route 228, but it will be easier to catch its pre-evolved form in Hippopotas at the Maniac Tunnel. It will then evolve at level 34, with its color being determined by the Pokemon's gender. The male has a tan and black/gray color scheme, and the female is covered in a darker coloration.

- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Evolve Nosepass
This Pokemon may have a controversial design, but in Pokemon Diamond & Pearl, it is an awesome Pokemon with a respectable base stat total of 525. This is mainly stored in its Defenses, something that a lot of Steel-type Pokemon share.

The 20 Best Starting Pokemon Of the Series
Choosing a starter is the first step in any Pokemon journey, and while some will make things easier, others aren't as useful.
Unlike in the game's follow-up, Platinum, this Pokemon cannot be found before the National Dex as it must be evolved from Nosepass, which will only appear via swarms on Route 206. Nosepass evolves into Probopass when leveled up at Mt. Coronet. It may not win any races, but it can take hits and strike back with reasonable Special Attack. STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) moves such as Flash Cannon or Power Gem will do some damage.

17 Torterra, Lucario, & Dusknoir
Base Stat Total: 525
- Type:

- Fighting/Steel (Lucario)
- Ghost (Dusknoir)
- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl:
- Evolve Grotle (Torterra
- Evolve Riolu (Lucario)
- Evolve Dusclops (Dusknoir)
Torterra
Torterra is a Grass/Ground-type Pokemon, the only one of its kind. Grass/Ground is a somewhat rough combination. While its STAB moves do hit seven different types for super effective damage, neither type can hit Grass, Bug, or Flying Pokemon neutrally. It also comes with a 4x weakness to Ice and additional weaknesses to Bug, Flying, and Fire, with only resistances to Rock, Ground, and an Electric immunity to make up for it.

8 Most Influential Nintendo Games
From PlayStation to Xbox, Nintendo's influences on the game industry are widespread.
1
Lucario
Lucario is a Fighting/Steel-type Pokemon. This combination is amazing, as it's a more offensive take on the usually defensive Steel-type. It only has three weaknesses to Ground, Fire, and Fighting, with a hefty six resistances, two quadruple resistances, and an immunity to Poison in exchange for this.
Offensively, Lucario's STAB moves can hit six types super effectively, and there is no individual type that can resist both Fighting and Steel. Lucario has very high Attack, Special Attack, and Speed but middling defenses. This makes its role very obvious: it's a fast mixed attacker that uses this great type combination both to switch in safely and to do meaningful damage. Riolu (Lucario's pre-evolution) is given out as an Egg at the end of Iron Island, provided that the current party space is less than 6. Riolu will then evolve when it has a high friendship level during the day.
✕ Remove Ads
Dusknoir
Dusknoir is a pure Ghost-type Pokemon, easily one of the best single types to have. It has only two weaknesses to itself and Dark, resistances to Bug and Poison, and immunities to Normal and Fighting. Ghost-type moves hit every type in the game at least neutrally, except for Normal and Dark, while also doing double damage to itself and Psychic.
Dusknoir has extremely high defenses and good Attack, but the rather poor HP stat does hurt its survivability quite a bit. Wild Duskull are located on Route 224 when using the Poke Radar in Diamond & Pearl and can be found regularly on Route 209, the Lost Tower, and Turnback Cave.
Base Stats:
Torterra | Lucario | Dusknoir | |

16 Empoleon & Mamoswine
Base Stat Total: 530
- Type:
- Water/Steel (Empoleon)
- Ice/Ground (Mamoswine)
- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl:
- Evolve Prinplup (Empoleon)
- Evolve Piloswine (Mamoswine)
Empoleon
Empoleon is the final form of Gen 4's Water-type starter, Piplup. It is the only Water/Steel-type, which is a phenomenal typing. Water/Steel gives Empoleon nine resistances and an immunity to Poison. Combine that with high Special Attack and Special Defense stats, and the result is a great Pokemon.
Empoleon evolves from the Water-type starter for Diamond & Pearl, meaning that players are given the option to pick it right at the beginning of the game. If the player picked another starter and still wants Empoleon, they will need to trade members of the family in from other games.

Mamoswine
Mamoswine has an excellently offensive typing in Ice/Ground in addition to having a great Attack stat and decent Speed. Combine all of that with its fantastic design and wonderfully punny name, and the result is an all-time fan favorite. Wild Swinub can be found on Route 217 as a swarm encounter.

15 Infernape
Base Stat Total: 534
- Type: Fire/Fighting
- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Evolve Monferno
Infernape is the final evolution of Sinnoh's Fire-type starter, Chimchar. With 534 as its base stat total, Infernape is an extremely offensively focused Pokemon. It has incredibly high Attack, Special Attack, and Speed stats, but unfortunately, it also has very frail defenses. Fire/Fighting is always a great offensive type, allowing its STAB moves to hit seven different types for super effective damage. Infernape can also learn moves that are unusual for its typing, such as Earthquake and Thunder Punch.

- Type: Poison/Flying
- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Evolve Golbat
Crobat was first introduced in Generation 2 as an evolution of Golbat and the final form of Zubat, a ubiquitous Pokemon in Sinnoh. The Bat Pokemon can be found in Iron Island, Oreburgh Mine, Wayward Cave, Lost Tower (walking; all times), Routes 203, 204, 206, 207, 208, 209, 211, 216, and 217, Acuity Lakefront (tall grass) at night, Ravaged Path, Oreburgh Gate, Mt. Coronet (Surfing and walking; all times).
This Pokemon is one of the best Flying 'mons to use in the game, with its 130 speed making it one of the fastest in the franchise, and its other stats aren't bad either. It is also weak to just four types, resists four, and is immune to one. It does share this total with some Pokemon introduced in Generation 4, however.

Magnezone
This quartet is made up of new evolutions of older Pokemon that all share the same base stat total of 535. Magnezone has an incredible typing in Electric/Steel, giving it a massive 10 resistances and an immunity. Wild Magnemite can be found at the Fuego Ironworks as a swarm encounter.

Best Defensive Pokemon Of Each Type
For Pokemon players who prioritize defense over offense, here are the best defensive Pokemon of each type.
1
Rhyperior
Rhyperior is a physical beast, with its HP, Attack, and Defense all being ridiculously high. Wild Rhyhorn and Rhydon, Rhyperior's pre-evolutions, can be found on Route 227, 228, or Stark Mountain, respectively.
Tangrowth
Tangrowth has beautiful stats in general, with only its Special Defense and Speed being subpar. Tangela can only be obtained by transferring it from a Gen 3 game.
Porygon-Z
Porygon-Z is the most interesting of the bunch, though. It's not the expected evolution of Porygon2 with better stats; rather, it is essentially Porygon2 with rearranged stats. This allows the two evolutions to coexist, something very rarely seen. Wild Porygon are found in the Trophy Garden as a special encounter.

- Type: Water
- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Evolve Feebas
The Tender Pokemon made its bow in Pokemon Ruby & Sapphire and is notorious for being one of the hardest to capture in the franchise. In Pokemon Diamond & Pearl, this is no different. It must be evolved from Feebas, which can only be found in four fishing spots in Mt. Coronet, which are randomly determined.
Milotic is a very decent Pokemon. Being a pure Water-type means it only has two weaknesses in Grass and Electric, and offensively, it can deal massive Special damage with STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) Water moves like Surf or Hydro Pump. It can also soak up special hits with its staggering 125 Special Defense. It may be hard to acquire, but doing so is worth it for its impressive stats.

- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Evolve Chansey
This Pokemon is known for being a defensive wall, attributed to its massive HP stat. It is very easy for gamers to pick up in D&P. A hiker gives the trainer a Happiny egg, which will evolve into Chansey when it is holding an Oval Stone in the day and then will reach its final form when leveled up with high friendship.

Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire featured a lot of strong Pokemon. Here's a look at some of the strongest based on their stats.
Normal types are always handy to use in Pokemon, as they only have one weakness in Fighting and are immune to the Ghost-type, which will come in handy against Fantina in Hearthome City. It also shines in Special Defense and has a decent Special Attack stat, and it should be used as a support Pokemon.

- Where To Find In Diamond & Pearl: Evolve Munchlax
Snorlax, the lovable sleeping Pokemon, is insanely hard to acquire in Pokemon Diamond & Pearl, as gamers will need to evolve it from its baby Pokemon form, Munchlax, which was introduced in this game. To find Munchlax, gamers must slather honey on trees and then wait six hours. There is a 1% chance of finding Munchlax on certain trees.
That aside, if players ever get a chance to use Snorlax in this game, then they will have a beast of a Pokemon, using Rest strategies to stay healthy with Sleep Talk and Snore to go alongside it. Snorlax has high HP, Attack, and Special Defense, making it a beast to use in combat.

A truly iconic Pokemon and also tied for 540 base stat total, Gyarados can be found in a lot of locations in the game once the player gets the Super Rod. If not, gamers can catch a Magikarp and evolve it at level 20. Its pathetic, pre-evolution can be found pretty much anywhere there is water in Sinnoh.

This beast of a Pokemon has stats that rival a Legendary Pokemon, but there is a catch. Its ability, Truant. This means it can only attack every other turn as it is "loafing around." When it does, it hits powerfully with a staggering 160 Attack stat. Thankfully, using moves like Dig, Protect, or Fly, gamers can get around this by attacking on the turns it is loafing around.
To add a Slaking to the roster, gamers must first catch a Slakoth, which is found in Eterna Forest through a swarm, so this 'mon is another only available once the National Dex is acquired.

Regigigas is the leader of the Legendary Titan Trio from Gen 3 and has a base stat total of 670. It has a great type of pure Normal, downright amazing stats, and a very diverse learnset. The issue with it comes from its ability Slow Start, halving its Attack and Speed stats for the first five turns of battle. If the player can unshackle it from its ability, then they have some gold in their hands, but it does have a huge handicap to surmount.
Regigigas can be obtained by interacting with it at the Snowpoint Temple. To do so, the player must have the other Legendary Titans (Regirock, Regice, and Registeel) in their party, which all need to be transferred from a Gen 3 game.
