Just as the title says, do just that. For me its gotta be castform. its weak but cute and most people hate it. What is your pokemon that you love/hate?
Meloetta. I love its Aria forme, but I despise the Pirouette forme with every fibre of my being. It's like they took everything about the Aria forme that made it good and just completely reversed it - bad typing, disgusting colour scheme, and generally unappealing design.

Kinda feel this way about Eternatus too because of that ridiculous giant hand form it has. I mean...what? If you're going to transform into something, at least be something cool. Zygarde got a Megazord - although it DID get that horrible dog form too I suppose - so why can't Eternatus have something like that too? =/

Scizor, easy!

I love the fact that Scizor is a really strong and cool looking Pokemon, but I hate the fact that it's a trade evolution Pokemon. Since I mostly play older games on ROMs, I don't have the option to trade and I'm not much for using cheats to generate one in, it would be a much more satisfying feeling doing it the legit way. Hopefully one day I can play through the GSC story w/ a Scizor on my team.

Going to move this to Pokémon General, since this is a general discussion that doesn't only encompass only the games!

For me... Blastoise. The idea of a giant turtle with cannons that shoot water is awesome, but god does it look derpy in actuality.



Could be so much cooler tbh :x

It's not one of my top favorites, but I do think Blaziken—barring its Mega—has a really nice design (possibly the nicest design of any fully-evolved Starter). However, I hated coming up against it back when I was mostly running Ice- and Normal-types. Same goes for Lucario.

Incineroar. I love its design and personality but I hate how it mostly eclipses Scrafty in VGC to the point it was the most popular used Pokemon in the format and then Gen 8 nerfed Intimidate and gave it Parting Shot. Also, many Fairy-types too, some have solid designs but for stuff like Xerneas it's a pain to battle against.

Golisopod - It has a cool design, a good typing, high Attack, high Defense, and a good movepool. But I'm not pleased with its ability.

Conkeldurr - A good battler, but a horrible design. Also, I don't like how it eclipses Machamp competitively.

Pikaclones - They may be cute, but they're weak, and Game Freak refuses to evolve them. (I like Marill and Mimikyu, but I'm not sure if they count as Pikaclones. And then there's Annoying Stupid Flying Squirrel, which I don't like at all.)
Do you like Pokemon battles? If yes, then come play The Great Pokemon Battle 13!

Every cool looking Rock-Ground type. Love how beastly they look. Hate how they die if you throw a leaf at them.

The fully evolved Alola starters. I love Decidueye, Incineroar feels great in Smash, and Primarina is...Primarina.

But man, do I have quite the grievances with them. The fact that none of them is particularly fast (particularly Decidueye) just irritates me. At least make them varied somehow! Not only that, but the fact that the starters nowadays are getting more and more anthro irks me out almost as much; they feel more like characters than members of a biological species. I could extend this to the Galar starters, and to a smaller extent the Kalos starters as well.

As of now, Poliwag because I just used a ridiculously useless one that had both bad defense IVs and a defense reducing nature that did nothing but delay the playthrough with it’s fraility. I still like it though since it’s just one particular example from the species and it’s two final evos are some mons I have been really interested in using, so yeah.
I… might put something interesting here eventually.
