>>14223747My explanations
Illumise - I tend to like bug pokemon, but this one doesn't even feel like one to me, and it's a terrible tribute to a firefly.
Granbull - I've hated it and Snubull's stupid ass ever since it arrived. Its ugly without being cool or useful, and it doesn't fit well with Snubull anyway.
Scraggy/Scrafty - *snorts coke* "Dude, what if we made pokemon based off of gangbangers?"
"Isn't that a bit racist and also really lame?"
"Well, we got away with Jynx, so fuck it! Pass me more blow!"
Druddigon - I like my dragons to be unique and useful in some capacity. This thing looks simultaneously generic and abhorrent.
Plusle and Minun - Pika clones go die.
Sawk and Throh - I would've been fine if one was a judomon and the other was a different martial art. I would've been better than fine if they didn't have literal clothes on their bodies. But they weren't, and they do. Fuck.
Emboar - Worst starter ever. That's even supported by a popular opinion poll from about two days ago. Too blatantly Chinese, too boringly yet exquisitely detailed, and just a terrible stat spread.
Kami trio - The pokemon that proved self-plagiarism is a crime. While I actually like their incarnate forms, that's not how these pokemon were first introduced, and so I hate them.
Ghost - Maybe Doublade belongs here, but I feel like I'll grow to like it. Otherwise, these are all pretty cool.
Bellossom - Say hello to the most pointless evolution in the game!
Gligar - Gliscor is awesome in competitive pokemon, but its pre-evo is just a derpy disney chimera. If it looked like an actual scorpion fly, I'd dig it.
Vaniluxe - Believe it or not, I don't mind Vanilish. It's not until the evolutions came around that it just got too retarded for me to handle.
Lopunny - God I hate furries with a passion...
Swalot - Gulpin should've had its stats and been a single stage. We don't need 2 generic poison blobs, especially when we had 2 generic poison sludge piles before, in first gen.
