Pokémon Least favorite Pokemon and why?

[Tao]

Voltorb and Electrode. They just feel so lazy. People will say Trubbish and Vanillux are lazy, but at least they have some sort of unique aesthetic design aspect to them. Voltorb and Electrode are literally just Pokeball with eyes and upsidedown Pokeball with eyes. A lot of these 'inanimate object' Pokemon are far down on my favourites, but those from gen 1 and 2 tend to be the ones I dislike the most.

The 'human' Pokemon like Machop, Machoke, Sawk, Hitmonchan, Jynx. They just look a bit too much like 'just a dude', kind of in the same way I hate the Digimon and Yu-Gi-Oh """monsters""" that are literally just people. Extra hatred when they're wearing clothes...Where the hell did they get underpants and boxing gloves from?
Note: Machamp I'm sort of fine with. I think the extra arms are enough to stop it feeling too human to me.

And a specific one: Incineroar. I really love his first two evolutions, Litten and Torracat. They're pretty adorable. Incineroar I hate though...Once I found out what Torracat evolves into, I just halted the evolution and kept it as Torracat.

Spoiler:

- For one he just doesn't look like he comes from the same evolution line as the other two in my opinion. Torracat looks like the natural progression from Litten. Incineroar at best looks like there's supposed to be about 20 different forms in between.
- He just looks like a guy in a mascot outfit. I've already mentioned my disdain for certain 'human' Pokemon, so that makes sense. He's also as close as you can get to wearing clothing without actually wearing any clothing with his flame belt and natural vest, which still annoys me.
- He's in Smash. This more than anything is why I in particular don't like him so much, because I have to see his stupid face every time I play Smash which only reminds me and makes me hate him more. His running animation especially bugs me since it looks so stupid, it's just like a regular guy running, it looks weird...We could have had Decidueye, that would have been cool, but no, we get a man in a cat suit.

Any game, That new “meltan” thing. Looks like someone spraypainted a Ditto and then stuck a ring in the middle of its head. Almost makes me like it out of pity. Almost.

Main series type game, I’d say Dusk-Form Lycanroc. The design just looks like it’d be shiny Midday-Form Lycanroc, and I hate Pok?mon that are just rip-offs of others (Except the Eon Duo because they’re siblings and it makes sense. But they charged real money for a Pok?mon that looks almost identical to one already in the game, just different colours).

Tentacool.

There is no doubt in my mind.

Every time I see his stupid tentacles wiggle at me in harassment I just-

Lol I like it shiny but yeah when you get it wild 1000 times because lol sea pokemons then yeah no.

 

[Buttonsy]

Whismur, it has such a disturbing face...

 

[Jason Voorhees]

Tentacool looks like my late cousin.
Seriously.

The same expression.

Mine would probably be dunsparce... for me it seems sort of ugly and useless. Although there are certainly some uglier/useless pokemon such as trubbish, garbodor, and klefki (seriously!? a key pokemon?). Luvdisc is definitely up there too, but i I want to hear some other options

I dont really hate pokemon but someone gave me a shiny dunspace with barely IVs. it was a giveaway and it was a shiny.
really want to train him but it takes too slow

(if you count hating the shiny form of a pokemon you actually like if it isn't shiny) Kommo-o's shiny form... it's hideous. just look up "shiny Kommo-o" on google or something and you'll see what i mean. it's at least 2 shades of pink, and then it's also a color i can only assume is a shade of lime green. one of the most unattractive shinies ever, imho. but if you don't count shiny forms, honestly, yungoos and gumshoos. they look too much like donald trump turned into a whatever-yungoos-and-gumshoos-are-based-off-of for my liking.

The worst part about Kommo's shiny form, is the simple fact that starting from Gen 6 they finally stopped using the usual algorithm/randomly generated palette swap for shiny pokemon. All shiny pokemon from Kalos onwards were all hand picked. Whoever choose the colors for Kommo-o must've really dislike it and wanted it to look hideous.

I usually like/have a fond memory of every single Pok?mon (even the most disliked ones!), but Barbaracle and Binacle were always unsettling to me ;v;

 

[Mr. Cat]

jigglypuff.

I used to play with this kid who hated Jigglypuff in Smash too. Except he called it "Puffy"

btw off topic

if you main jigglypuff or pikachu/pichu in smash you are homophobic

I don't really dislike most Pok?mon, even useless ones. I might not like certain ones as much as others, but I dunno, not many Pokemon really annoy me. Heck, I even like some of the popularly disliked ones like Garbodor.

That said, while baby Pok?mon like Pichu and Magby are cute and fine on their own, mechanically speaking they are very annoying. If you're into breeding Pok?mon for IVs like I am, they're just gigantic bothers. Some of them require specific held items on one of the parents to be produced during breeding. If you're trying to pass on moves through the offspring or get certain IVs, you have to evolve the offspring and some of them require level 30 or high happiness to evolve. I can sort of understand the reasoning behind this but, at the same time, what really differentiates a Magby from a Rattata or Whismur or any other first form Pokemon other than some arbitrary decision they decided to make when creating Gold & Silver? Nothing. The Pok?mon themselves aren't at fault though, so I just blame Game Freak.

I don?t hate any Pokemon in general, that?s what makes them unique in every way. Even the unpopular inanimate object Pokemon like the ones from Gen 5 where they are most notable for it. (Garbodor has a really unique design for being a pile of trash and that?s cool! And Vanilluxe is solely based on a sundae, but I honestly like Vanillite better. But I?m not saying I hate it?s evolutions.) And Pokemon with poor designing. (Such as Slurpuff. It?s nothing more but a dog as a sweet treat, but I find nothing wrong with it. Like I said before, every Pokemon is unique in their own way and that makes it okay! Plus Slurpuff?s design reminds me of Isabelle. I wouldn?t be surprised if someone created a color scheme of Slurpuff with Isabelle?s colors. I?d actually like it.

I just like Pokemon a lot and I really can?t hate any Pokemon at all, but at least a few have their dislikes. I don?t...

 

[Lemonsky]

I'd say my very least favorite pokemon is Jynx since its design is just really unappealing to me in many ways.

iM OFFENDED

There are not any Pokemon I hate but I dislike seel. Its probably the lamest Pokemon in my eyes tbh
Also jynx is kind of gross looking

 

[idiotdoomspiral]

hariyama looks kinda gross

 

[chet_manley]

Musharna looks like a sleeping fetus with an umbilical cord coming out of its head.

 

[auroral]

I jokingly tell my friend who loves the Chespin line that I hate them / think they're the worst starters / are stinky, but I don't actually feel that way. I raised one for some competitive double battles with friends, and he's pretty neat. Def a cool little lad.

I was about to say "I don't actually have a least favorite pokemon, nothing is coming to mind!" but literally as soon as the thought crossed my mind, my childhood hatred for the Machop line reemerged. Admittedly, I've never given the line a chance, but as a kid, I thought they looked SO unsettling. And my brothers would always give me their extra pokemon cards, and they gave me.... so many Machops.... I hated it so much.... He's such an ugly little man..... I hate this ugly little card so much still to this day.

One of the ones that springs to mind is Delibird. Why would I hate the Santa bird? Well... considering it has the same catch rate as some legendaries, and I have a story about it... let me tell this story:
Once upon a time, I was completing my dex in Alpha Sapphire. Delibird is a hidden Pokemon in Shoal Cave. So I went to find one. It broke out of a Quick Ball. Then out of Pokeballs. Then out of Great Balls. Then out of a CRITICAL CAPTURE ULTRA BALL. Eventually I used a Timer Ball and caught it.
The only other time I've had a Pokemon break out of a Critical Catch was Zekrom in gen 5. So seeing this stupid bird break out of one really upset me. I hate Delibird to this day.
Also... Probopass, Tangrowth, Lickilicky, Mr. Mime, Jynx... those are Pokemon I hate. But I mainly hate how they look, I don't have as bad memories with them as I do Delibird.
EDIT: to add insult to injury: I actually like Delibird's shiny!
