>Swalot
I used one recently for the first time in the Tourmaline demo that got posted here a while back. It was a rare swarm encounter and got given a cool ability that (iirc) lets it resist water/ice/electric moves, with the trade-off of a fire weakness. Was fun to use it, and I intend on using it again when the full game drops.
Alternatively, it got a Mega form in Elite Redux that looks pretty powerful.
>Magcargo
It was given a gray shiny like Slugma and a Storm Drain clone called Evaporate in Unbound. I was planning to use one in a scalemons team with an Assault Vest in the future, I also used one in Prism many years ago.
Alternatively, it was given a cool new evolution in Elite Redux.
>Buizel line
I used to use Floatzel in nearly every single playthrough of DPPt, like the generic Sinnoh team everyone used but swap Lucario with Roserade/Floatzel. I was thinking of using it again in Altered Platinum at some point because it got a cool new blue shiny and some new tools to work with.
>Bidoof line
Was planning to use it in Elite Redux at some point, Simple + Growing Tooth (+1 attack when using biting moves) seemed like a fun gimmick.
I've also personally been "haunted " by shiny Bidoof line for years now, ran into at least 4 now from Platinum to PLA, that combined with the 2 new shinies in Elite Redux is more than enough reason for me.
And I could go on. The point being, what seems like worthless dex and route filler to you could be a breath of fresh air for someone else who's already used most of the popular shit, especially when the romhack dev puts effort into them in some way.
