I've never taken the time to watch Let's Plays, mostly because if I'm taking the time I'd rather be playing myself, haha.
As for changing views on Pokemon, I've definitely come to like some Pokemon as time as gone on either through using them or just becoming more used to their designs. Some off the top of my head are Magnezone, Parsect, Exeggutor, Wormadam, and Cradily.

I too have Pokemon that bothered me in the past, that I've warmed up to. These include Tangrowth, Liepard, and Chespin.

There are also Pokemon that I once really liked, that now bother me. Pidgey and Pidgeotto come to mind here. Pidgey was really cute back in RBY and GSC, but the more I played Pokemon using VBA, the more it and Pidgeotto annoyed me with Whirlwind and Sand-Attack. It doesn't help that since RSE, we've been getting better and cuter birds, like Taillow, Starly, Drifloon, Rufflet, and Fletchling.

It's true, although people slammed Talonflame for being overpowered due to its hidden ability because that's the sole reason why it's dominant in competitive play.

Omg I just looove the regional birds! They're all too cute, okay? You'd better not make me pick between Pidgey, Taillow, Starly, and Fletchling. >:(

(I like Hoothoot and Pidove too, but the other birds stand out a little more to me.)

I like a lot of the regional birds. Swellow and Staraptor are probably my favorite, followed by Pidgeot. Noctowl is cool and all but it's not as useful as the others, and I find the whole Pidove line to be kind of bland. As for Talonflame, I really like its typing I just don't particularly like its design. I like Fletchinder's design much better but I just can't get over how ugly I think Talonflame is.. But it is a very useful Pokemon to have on a team, I'll give it that.

There was only one regional bird line since gen 3 that I didn't really like, and that's the Pidove line. Pidove is cute, but Tranquill annoys me a lot when I face it, and Unfezant is meh to me. Male Unfezant has an okay design, but female Unfezant's design sucks in my opinion.

I really love the gender difference concept with Unfezant. They really took inspiration from typical gender differences of birds in real life, where the males are more colourful than the females.

My favourite regional birds are Talonflame, Staraptor, and Swellow. When it comes to other Normal/Flying types, I'm fond of Dodrio and Braviary.

EDIT: @Hikamaru, you forgot to change the number.

I do agree that the gender difference concept with Unfezant was a good idea, but I'm still not very fond of its appearance, male or female. As for other birds in the game, I like Braviary, Swanna, and Murkrow (and while Honchkrow is okay, it just isn't as cool as Murkrow). I'm not a huge fan of Mandibuzz, Dodrio, Fearow, or Farfetch'd though.

And then there's Feather Dance too, which Blue's Pidgeot knows in FRLG along Sand Attack, which was a terrible trouble for my Raticate solorun. I had to keep resetting until I could land a crit or flinch the bird with Hyper Fang.

I feel like the regional birds have been getting better with generation, particularly Starly and Fletchling.

I love Starly and while I like Fletchling's line too, I'm still not fond of the idea the regional bird splits its type to one of the starter types. You know, because of balance.
