Does anyone on /vp/ have a pokemon they disliked but gave a second chance and got converted, if not completely fell in love with their pokemon?

In bw I completely avoided this pokemon because it creeped me out. Now there's no pokemon that creeps me out but a pokemon based off pill bugs and eventually a giant centipede? Uuggh... The shriek just makes it much worse.

So in bw2 I'm giving this little fucker a second chance. I'm starting to take a liking to it because for its size it's a junior tank in the making. I even nicknamed it.

I still hate centipedes though. I try my best to avoid the actual fuckers in real life.
