I guess Gardevoir or Lopunny because ... you know, the unpleasant things done to them.

I've seen things I long to forget.

I don’t think the internet has ruined any Pokémon for me! I’ve always loved Gardevoir and Lopunny, I just don’t pay any mind to what other people think.

i have used gardevoir WAY too much in teams to give a damn about what the internet thinks about it

dont think the internet has ruined any one particular pokemon for me, though.

Oh, muk, yup Drifloon. Will never think the same about Drifloon again after seeing animations through Dorkly about it literally kidnapping a baby from a couple's hands...

This. There's definitely some weird stuff online about certain mons but it hasn't ruined anything for me. I will continue to like Gardevoir and Lucario. :D

drifloon though yeah that's always amusing lol

I don't need internet to ruin Pokémon, when there is Game Freak already doing so.

Luckily the internet has not ruined any Pokemon for me! I tend to avoid areas that might lead towards that lol Although I definitely agree with the ghost Pokemon stuff discussed above. I never thought too hard about a lot of the ghost Pokedex entries until coming to forums, but holy cow they can be really creepy!

I guess Charizard? It never really bothered me much. It was just another starter. At least until I got to the internet and saw all the hype around it. It doesn't help that GF went full in on it, making it a lot more prominent in the games by giving it 2 megas and turning it into the ace of the gen 8 champion and what not.

"in terms of male human and female Pokémon breeding, Vaporeon is the most compatible Pokémon for...."
When I read that I can't stand seing a vaporeon anymore. Just the thought of it makes me extremely unconfortable. Especially because there was a picture attached to that paragraph that got recorded permanently in my mind.
When I send a vaporeon to battle you see it from behind, that doesn't help.

I only hope I'm not the only one traumatized by this.

All that Pokesmut is pretty darn wrong for sure, but I tend to just ignore them. I dunno why, but it doesn't really leave that much of a lasting impression on me.
