Nighthawk: Answer: MEGA ZANGOOSE.

Counter answer: MEGA SEVIPER.

And the only pokes that I forget about are generally the weird-ass ones from Johto that are generally useless except for 'dex completion. Coming to mind are Boat Qwilfish and maaaaaybe Mantine.

Neoninjavek: (That was generation 2. Preevolutions came in generation 4, if I recall correctly.)

[umiman]

Quilfish is actually really good.

[Tawa]

Really? Never cared much for it, and its moveset never seemed all that interesting to me.

Oh well.

Oh well.

all the poison types have become a lot more relevant now for obvious reasons but quilfish had always been used as a wall with amusing tricks up its sleeve.

[Neonivek]

Yeah poison types kind of went from being... pretty much the worst type in the game... to being actually really good.

Sure Dragons and Normal types didn't GENERALLY have great moves to back themselves up in the really early generations (with exception)... but their move reservoir more then made up for it.

Ah, that explains it. Never been much for having a wall and I haven't gotten my mitts on one since Gen IV.

Poison's never really been a bad type, per se. It's only got two weaknesses; Psychic can be baited into a Dark-type switch, Ground into a Flying-type or Air Balloon. Poison has always been a strong defensive type (ignoring Gen I, of course).

Using Poison offensively is a bit newer. Up until Gen III, the only good Poison offensive move was Sludge Bomb, which was only learned by Muk and Swalot (and in TM 36, which was one-of-a-kind). Now, Sludge Bomb is more widely distributed, and TMs are reusable, so lots of Poison types get a decent offensive move. Also, Gen IV added Poison Jab and Gunk Shot, while Gen V added Sludge Wave and Venoshock, all strong offensive moves for Poison-types. Finally, of course, Gen VI added Fairy-typing.

[Neonivek]

What type was worse then poison in Gen 1 and maybe even 2?

This is ignoring that Ghastly is a poison type >_< but lets ignore it since he doesn't do anything with that.

[Urist Imiknorris]

Can you think of a preevolution that was added after Elekid? (I forget the generation)

Azurill. Wynaut. Budew. Chingling. Bonsly. Mime Jr. Happiny. Munchlax. Mantyke.

yeah all same generation interestingly enough.

Though Chingling and Mantyke seem to be a further gen.

So how much longer til we get a Mega Farfetch'd?  A friend really loves the thing but me and him both really can't find any niche for it that isn't done far better by something else.

Closest we could get is a crit build, but even that's outclassed by a glorified pigeon.

[Sirus]

Farfetch'd will always be mega to me ;_;7

[Furtuka]

I doubt it will ever be. The whole point of Farfetched is that he is something you get for practically no work but turns out to be worthless. He's based off a saying about a duck that appears with a leek to cook it with and how that's too good to be true.

It could be boosted if there is enough popularity push.

Pikachu keeps getting boosts and heck I bet one day it will be outright better then Raichu.

[Elephant Parade]

Remoraid -> Octillery is pretty obscure.
