Who are the Yamcha of all the Verses out there. You know, all the characters who are considered the joke of their Verse.
 
Pretty sure Genos is the Yamcha of OPM.

Kiba from Naruto seems to be the Yamcha on his verse on a massive comparison (Naruto is Goku, Kiba being one of his first rivals and is defeated and later becomes a joke, Neji would be Tien as a rival who is focused on martial arts and honor but later turns a new leaf and is beaten by Naruto, Sasuke would be Vegeta, the forever rival and so on).

Pretty sure both are more like what Hercule actually is: A flat out joke.

Yamcha is more like a serious character that has been undermined to such a shit status he is not even a joke, sadly.

Yamcha has become "Joke-like" in Super. Your description fits Tien more.
 
Tien is still quite serious and cool. He is never treated as a joke, never acts like one even though he certainly doesnt get his shine. In Dragonball Super, Tien didnt get the proper treatment, I agree, but he still took down an enemy that was solidly being a nuisance for Team 7 and earned Beerus' respect, using techniques and still being a serious character.

Hercule is the true joke character, there are no positive aspects for the character. He is there to be made fun of. He is a literal JOKE. Something done to provoke comedy, nothing else. He is so egocentric he thinks he is capable of defeating beings like Cell and Buu, fails miserably and lies like a ****** to fake the fact that he is weak, and yet everyone believes him.

Now Yamcha was never supposed to be a joke character. During original Dragonball and even Dragonball Z, he was still a serious warrior/character. In DBZ, his death is actually quite honorable (jokes aside) and even then, the reason why he stops fighting (feeling powerless/helpless against beings such as the Androids) is still serious, even if taken as a joke by many.

In DBS, Yamcha's character has certainly changed. He is now truly a joke character, but nothing like Hercule, which is nothing else but that. He fell from grace of being an actual serious character and is now exactly what Hercule is.

tl;dr: Tien is still serious, not a joke at all. Hercule is the complete joke character like Dan and Kanonji. Yamcha used to be serious and fell from grace in DBS turning him into a complete joke like Hercule only THEN.
