Pokémon Pokemon you love that everyone else hates?

Chikorita was always my favourite gen 2 starter! Their design is so so cute. Even though it's very weak at the start, I've always picked them :]
 
I dunno if people hate them, but I love the Spheal line. It just sucks that you need a surfing Pokémon to get to Shoal Cave to catch one, so by that late in the game most people have their water coverage already, so Spheal/Sealeo/Walrein barely get used. If I catch a Spheal in a randomizer though, I always make an effort to add it to my team.

Another Pokémon that I like that doesn't get a lot of love is Yanma/Yanmega. Gamefreak did bugs dirty up until gen 5. Yanma is so cute and Yanmega has a freaking beastly design.
 
One Pokemon I like that everyone seems to hate is Delphox. I originally chose Froakie when XY first came out, but I've replayed it a few times and grew pretty ambivalent towards Greninja, and now Fennekin is my go-to starter for Kalos! I love Delphox's witch-y theme tbh, I think it suits the region as a whole.

Appletun isn't unpopular, but it's not as popular as I thought it would be! As soon as I saw it I knew it'd end up being one of my favs of all time haha, it's everything I want in a Pokemon. An apple pie themed grass/dragon type the size of a little puppy? Absolutely perfect.
 
I love pidgy and it’s evolutions, and the “ratata” of each region (ratata, zigzagoon, bidoof ect)
 
I really like the Leavanny line, klefki, meowstic, sobble, and there are probably others. People seem to hate random pokemon, so im not sure which ones are widely hated.

there are more pokemon that I know of that I dont like that others love like the ultra beasts, incinaroar, and rillaboom for example
 
I don't dislike any Pokémon; there are some designs or some with stats that might not be that great, but I don't hate any of them. So, I happen to like the Pokémon that a lot of others don't seem to, like Trubbish and Garbodor, Vanillite, Vanillish, and Vanilluxe, etc. I don't really pay too much attention to which Pokémon are particularly disliked by people, and it seems like something that depends on the individual anyhow, so yeah. If it's unpopular, just chalk me up and being cool with them.

That aside, I will say that I seem to get the impression that most people think Regigigas is bad. Frankly, with that hindering Ability, it is bad. I've tried to use it on a team and it's unfortunate. Regardless, I absolutely love Regigigas' design. It's one of my favorite Pokémon designs and one of my favorite Legendary Pokémon.
 
JYNX! :giggle:
I like Jynx. I liked her from back then when she was still black (I don't understand what's Japan's problem with black people though?). I think her diva design is great.
But I won't complain about her turning purple when Pokémon became technicolor, since purple is my favourite colour. I also tend to like ice types in general: Articuno has the only pkmn cry I recognize and remember by myself, and my fave pkmn is Glaceon.

So, Jynx is awesome. And even if I don't care about shinies, her shiny form is superb! :cool:
 
I liked her from back then when she was still black (I don't understand what's Japan's problem with black people though?).
Many complained about Jynx' original design because it looked like a blackface, which promotes racial stereotyping (basically, it's racist). I'm not sure if the original artist designed Jynx with racism in mind, but it was definitely the right decision to change the skin color to purple instead.

Anyway, I really like Bidoof! Idk if anyone still dislikes this Pokemon but I remember making cute Pokemon gifs years ago and when I made one of Bidoof, I remember people commenting why I made it when Bidoof looked so ugly. Bidoof is cute and goofy!!
 
I like trubish and garbador. They eat garbage. The earth needs them! Grimer and muk are great too (especially Alolan forms).

I don't know a lot of Pokemon that count as "hated". So I'm going to say Phione. I know people don't like it because it's supposed to be a mythical yet it has terrible stats (Probably because it can be bred).
But I don't care about stats. I care about appearance, and I think Phione is cute.
 
i don’t think they’re particularly disliked, i just don’t see much about them at all, but weavile is and always has been my favourite ! :]
 
I also like Delphox! I don't understand why that line gets so much hate. And speaking of Fire-type starter final evolutions, I actually really like Emboar and think it has a really cool design. I mean, I'm getting bored of Fire/Fighting starter evolutions as much as the next person, but there's definitely still some designs I like there.
I also like the whole legendary musketeer group, especially Virizion, and I don't think I've seen many people who like them. And I know that inanimate object Pokemon are pretty commonly disliked, but I tend to like them, and especially Klefki—probably because I think keys are pretty/interesting in general.
 
is wobbuffet hated? idk but he was always my favourite. incineroar seems to get a lot of hate too, but i like its design a lot
