Pokemon you love that everyone else hates

Aromatisse. Now I know she may not be the most overlooked or hated Pokemon, but everywhere I go I see the phrase "wasted potential" in reference to her. Everyone expected Aromatisse to be this dark, tall, badass witch doctor with stellar defenses and a nightmarish bag of fairy dust that lulls its opponent into a deep and everlasting slumber. But nope! Instead Aromatisse turned out to be something even better, in my opinion. And it's like, why you gotta be so disappointed with such a sassy, beautiful, purple Pokemon? She's got more personality and design in her than a fair amount of other Pokemon out there, that's for sure. Though.. I suppose that's not necessarily a common school of thought.

That's actually really good reasoning for liking a pokemon, there are some sort've uninspired designs amongst the 718 poke's. Aromatisse certainly does have a visible attitude about it too. :P I sympathize with your feelings on this.
 
All these folks mentioning Zubat, awww yeah. I thought Golbat was pretty epic until Crobat rolled around. I just really love Crobat, agh.

Tentacruel is another one, too.

I'm not gonna lie, I do like Stunfisk, tho. I got one in a wonder trade early in my Pkmn X run and lemme say, that thing was a beast.
 
I don't know if I'd consider Hitmontop hated since I never hear anything about it; I'd definitely group him into the criminally underrated category of Pokemon. He is a bit strange but the spin top mixed with a martial arts style pokemon is definitely unique and the design turned out to be clever as well. I just wish he wasn't so tricky to obtain.
