December 6th, 1999 Ask anyone who's been in the combat zone that is the holiday mall and they'll tell you, this year the kids are all whacked out on Pokémon, that super cute Japanimaton* sensation that's sweeping the nation. But what happens when you get to the toy store and the Pokémon aisle is nothing but a couple of ravaged trading card wrappers and a few bums huddled around a burning garbage can? When all of the Pikachus and Charmanders and Squirtles of the world have been brought home to be hugged and loved and put into mortal combat by kids whose loved ones shop earlier than you do? At that point you have no choice but to go for the second string. You have to take a refugee from... The isle of misfit Pokémon By Marcus Pokémisfit #39 Jigglypuffdaddy Stats Although they're cute and cuddly in appearance, the Jigglypuffdaddy has the lethally obnoxious ability to take other Pokémon's attacks, add a formulaic rap beat, and claim them as its own. TYPE: Gangsta EVOLUTION: Jigglypuffdaddy - Jiglypufnstuf Pokémisfit #104 Barbizon Stats The Barbizon's most impressive special power is the ability to look like a model, but not actually be one. TYPE: Skin and bones EVOLUTION: Barbasol - Barbizon Pokémisfit #110 Weezie Stats Known to constantly bicker among itself, the Weezie has dwindled in numbers and grown to cult obscurity in the past fifteen years. In battle, the Weezie is most susceptible to "Honkey" type attacks. TYPE: Has Been EVOLUTION: Weezie - OldNavy Pokémisfit #3 Penisaur Stats He he he... the Penisaur's chief attacks are... he he he hehehe! Oh come on, you didn't honestly think that we'd make it through this entire feature without any toilet humor, did you? TYPE: Potty EVOLUTION: Penisaur - Poopoosaur Pokémisfit #132 Glomer Stats Glomer is a magical bearded Pokémon with a fanatical devotion to his "Punky friend." Although never witnessed first-hand, Pokémon researchers extrapolate that after ten years of obscurity Glomer evolves into Neelix. TYPE: Brewster EVOLUTION: Glomer - Neelix * "Hey Mr. Misinformer Man, it's called anime." I know. But "anime" doesn't rhyme with "sensation" and "nation." So get offa me.
