Though it has a solid ability in Dry Skin and access to moves such as spore, Parasect has always been hurt by its lackluster stats. The only use Parasect ever really sees in the mainline games is when trainers are looking for a random encounter lead who can learn both spore and false swipe, with Parasect usually being one of the easiest to obtain but always one of the weakest....
