First off is Arceus. Why do countless numbers of people think this Pokemon is the most powerful legendary? It has a ridiculous design in my opinion,it just looks like an old goat with some swirly,fancy golden rings around it's body :P.Also without any plate,it isn't very special,just a normal type.Yes it can learn moves like Judgement, but I never found it appealing at all move or design wise.

Then there's Heatran.This creature whatever it is,is horrible. It has so many weaknesses-Water,Fighting,a 4x weakness to ground. It looks ugly in my opinion,some plump creature with metal jaws and glaring eyes :|.

I'm going to be boring and agree with some of what you guys have already said: Cresselia. Le boring. And Regigigas. Still have no clue how to pronounce it's name even. :pink_no:
In fact, I think all the Gen IV legendaries were epic fails (pun intended). I tend to look at them more from a design aspect however, and the only one I sort of enjoy is Dialga. But I've never really payed attention to them after they've been caught and stored neatly in a box.

Arceus has the highest stats of all pokemon.

And heatran only has 3 weaknesses, compared to its 10 resistances.

My least favorite would be Arceus, a god pokemon is just a bit of a stupid idea. Especially since its a goat.

Never been a fan of cresselia or phione.

NuOmicronMu October 2nd, 2012 10:23 AM

I'm not a fan of legendary Pokemon anyway, but the worst one in my opinion is Kyurem. It has a horrible typing, lower stats than its two counterparts, and I think it looks terrible.

Regigigas

Pretty damn useless. Don't think I need to explain why.

Rothometapratis October 7th, 2012 4:00 PM

Any of the Regis. They have this so awkward appearence. Just rearrange them.

SoulSilver10112 October 7th, 2012 6:36 PM

Regigigas. Sure, it's cool, but the slow start ability is horrible.

Kanade Otonashi October 7th, 2012 7:32 PM

I hate Shaymin. And I don't know why. ;~:

It's CUTE. It's GRASS. It wears FLOWERS. WHY DON'T I LOVE IT?

I don't understand my head. x-x

AChipOffTheOldBrock October 13th, 2012 11:52 AM

All those cutesy legendaries like: Shaymin, Phione, Manaphy, Celebi, Jirachi, the Emotion trio or whatever they were called. I also dont like the tornadus/landorus/thunderus trio, Palkia, or Arceus. I think volcarona is stupid looking if you count it as a legendary. Im not too fond of latias/latios either.

LenSho October 13th, 2012 2:52 PM

Phione, it's just another slot in the Pokédex. It's weaker than Manaphy and they're both useless. The lake Trio are pointless to me too, they're like the same Pokémon with the same type, only with different stats. They could have at least made them Ice/Water, Fire and Electric, but no.

The genie Trio are just ugly, they look too much like a human, and maybe they tried to make it up with their therian forms, but it didn't help that much. I mean, Tornadus is a bird with a freaking mustache xD

Genesect, it's a bug that has lived for thousands of years. I never thought they would actually make a Cockroach Pokémon xD. At least it doesn't look like one. And Keldeo. No comments, I just don't like it.

RoreyG October 16th, 2012 4:26 PM

All of the 4th Gen Legendaries bar Giratina and Darkrai.

Arceus- Why would Pokemon God be a goat jumping through a hula hoop. If I wanted that, I'd just enter my Mareep in a Pokemon Contest.

Dialga and Palkia- I absolutely loathe and despise their CGI style design. something about it just ticks me off.

The emotion trio, Phione and Manaphy- they all look annoying as heck. Even Celebi and Jirachi wasn't that annoying.

AncientWarrior October 27th, 2012 7:11 AM

Stat wise, Arceus. Regigigas has OP stats too, but as PlatinumDude said, his ability makes up for that. I'd also say Shaymin. It's stats aren't OP, but its movepool and design are stupid. Even sky form.

I'll go with Palkia. I just don't like it. I'm a bit biased, having played Diamond over Pearl, but I really think its design, concept and typing could have been better. It's ironic, too, because I absolutely love Water-types. And as for how it fits the thread title, even though the thread title isn't the question, Palkia can be overpowered at times, having only a single weakness, unresisted STAB, high Special Attack and good bulk. But come to think of it, I also hate Regigigas a lot, because Slow Start is absolutely horrible, and it's not as original an idea as I'd like legendary Pokémon to be. Regigigas is an obvious choice, though, so apart from him, Palkia's my least favourite.

Very untrue.
20 Pokémon have higher HP than him, 52 have higher attack, 34 have higher defense, 16 have higher speed, 39 have higher Sp. Attack and 22 have higher Sp. Defense.

Sure, it has the highest base stat total. But that means nothing if all his other stats are beaten by countless other Pokémon.

Well thats exactly what i was talking about. And it matters because his stats are still high in every stat. Even if there are pokemon with individual higher stats, Arceus has the highest total, and would have higher stats in the other stats than those pokemon who have one or two higher than arceus.

JosephBowie October 28th, 2012 5:56 AM

I'm really not into using legendaries. It just doesn't appeal to me.

But if I had to choose, I'd go with Regigigas. Thing looks weird hell.

alisaie November 1st, 2012 2:45 AM

Never really been a fan of the Regis and Regigigas. Just .. I'm not even sure what to call that thing. I've never liked its design and chances are I'm never going to. Manaphy isn't one that I've gotten around to liking at all yet either.

I used to dislike Shaymin until I won a Sky Shaymin plush. Yeah hard to hate it when you have a big plush of it in your room. Now I really adore the cute little hedgehog.

Blaze42 November 5th, 2012 9:40 PM

Thundurus, Tornadus, and Landorus. I just hate their designs. (Says the guy who's favorite Pokémon is a flippin' cell.)

Aeon. November 5th, 2012 9:48 PM

Probably Cressella. It just seems... odd to me. In fact it's one of the only few Gen IV Pokemon period that I dislike.

Hannah November 6th, 2012 1:07 AM

Jirachi, imo. It may look cute and all, but I don't get why it grants wishes. Just because it's shaped like a star?

LOL

I don't like most of the tiny/cute legendaries such as Celebi, sea and lake guardians. They just don't look like legendary to me.

Jirachi is pretty neat I think it being extra-terrestrial and sleeping in a meteor, awakening for a short time after like 600 years (I forgot) and giving you a wish. I like its story.

Dunno much about Shaymin and Victini but I like Victini's type combo (psychic/fire).

Vαηєℓℓσρє November 24th, 2012 3:46 PM

I can't explain my hatred for the Unova weather trio. They just scream ugly and pointless to me. But really I had a problem for all the new legendaries, besides Meleotta, Kyurem, Zekrom and Reshiram. Previous others I've never really disliked before.
