Pokemon fans are discussing which of the beloved little monsters would be the “most annoying” to have around in real life.

More often than not, Pokemon are seen as adorable creatures with a knack for putting up a good fight. Each one has their own unique skills and quirks, attributes that ensure they stand out from the rest of the pack.

However, some pocket monsters can wreak havoc like nobody’s business, while others know nothing but ruthlessness. Such a thought led one fan to wonder which of the creatures would be most disastrous in a real-world setting.

Unsurprisingly, this spawned a discussion that some franchise faithful seem to have very strong feelings about.

A Redditor named friscoflip asked the Pokemon community to consider which of the creatures would likely be most hated in reality.

In answering their own question, the Redditor said Grimer and Muk would be “massive nuisance[s] to farmers” because they’d destroy plant life. Magcargo and Slugma would cause a fair few problems, too, “since their presence in an area could cause fires…”

The thread has garnered a wide range of responses from fans, thus far. One popular reply argued that electric types are the Pokemon who’d make real life most difficult.

In so doing, the commenter specifically called out Pikachu. “Lots of electric types steal electricity from houses and stuff. You can’t shoo away a Pikachu like a regular mouse; it can hurt you with the electricity it siphoned from your own house!”

Another fan said Tinkaton would cause more than its fair share of headaches, as it would likely fling boulders at aircraft. Of course, lots of comments also mentioned the giant bug mon. Reads one such reply, “…Imagine a huge swarm of Yanmega? You’d have to keep your pets inside.”

Needless to say, this thread has made it clear why Pokemon probably wouldn’t be welcomed into the real world.
