Intimidating pokemon

[#Not Important]

So, for online battles, I always used a shiny rhyperior (that always took too long to hunt for and train). I was lucky enough to get a less than 2 iv one last time I tried (I've given up). But most people quit when they saw it, thinking that I would have level 100 shinies and such. I didn't.
So, I wanted to start a thread here on intimidating pokemon.

I've always found Mightyena to be rather intimidating. It looks as if it could tear your head off without a second thought.

Tyranitar is another imposing pokemon that I wouldn't want to mess with. Not only is it a notoriously powerful pokemon but it seems quite abrasive in nature as well. I mean, the pokedex even claims that it can reduce even the mightiest of mountains to rubble. Tyranitar's no joke. Also, Tyranitar's contribution in Celebi: The Voice of the Forest is notable.

I find Gyrados intimidating because I am always annoyed and have a hard time when I run into one in game. It's always a moment when I think to myself "oh man, get ready."

On the other side of the coin, I've never had a hard time facing a Haxorus, but love its design and find that aspect of it alone to be crazy intimidating.

Banette takes the cake for me. It's... a doll that was abandoned and came to life as a Pokemon to get revenge on its owner? That's pretty intimidating to me.

Tyranitar is literally a giant green punching bag. Dark and Rock is a horrible combination so I never really end up having to fight him. Gyrados shows up now and again when I don't have Ampharos lol.

For me it'd be Hypno. That FRLG Berry Forest side mission, along with its Pokedex entry gave me chills as a kid.

agreed with hypno, but it'd be a mix of it being intimidating and flat out creepy.

Glalie is an angry ice head that floats and is about the size of a human. If that's not creepy enough, its dex entry says that it freezes its prey and immediately after starts eating it.

I don't think there's any other Pokémon that I find intimidating because Shiftry is scary, but its dex entry doesn't say much and Greedent is just ugly.

There's also some Pokemon like Jellicent but I think it's kind of unfair talking about ghost types here because they are meant to be scary.

Zarude better not show up in my nightmares because that thing is terrifying to me :(

 

[LegendaryZacian]

The ditto in the detective Pikachu movie that can transform into creepy versions of humans...Now THAT is an intimidating Pokémon.

 

[Zeostar]

Mewtwo seems like it could be pretty intimidating, especially with the armor.
