Are there any Pokemon you still love and use a lot despite being crippled by Types, Abilities, or shitty movepools?

Rock/Ice is horrible defensively, but I still love using Aurorus because of how it looks and how strong it is offensively.

I like using regional birds despite the bland typing because Swellow ended up being my ace back in Sapphire for whatever reason.

125 Speed + 85 Attack + Guts + Facade = one hell of a strong speedy bird. The only regional ealry bird I like more than Swellow is Staraptor.

I don't like it but I'm using one in my Round 6v6 Doubles team.
Max Sp.Atk and bulk with Iron Ball as item so that it outspeed the majority of opposite Trick Room abusers while also taking very low damage from Gyro Ball and balking hits in general.
Icy Wind to when the partner is not Scarf or in Tailwind is also a bless, so it gets instant "priority" for Round from the its partner in the following turn. The team has some flaws but shat on some high ranked players teams with muh Marshadow and other glass cannon legendaries and all Smogon offers.

Round is pretty cool because also ignores the speed tiers of the slower mon having it, it just stacks with the partner ones and doubles its power. But activates ALL the Round mons on the field including the eventual opponent ones, shit is funny to see, some Tapu Lele & friends Round team I faced resulted in an amusing match.

Tropius sucks, it has shit speed to work with dragon dance, it has poor attack and spA stats and it has meh bulk while also being outclassed in every other role by the likes of Gourgeist and Trevenant
but I love the flying banana tree dino

Even though his typing and stats are lackluster, I've always had a soft spot for Noctowl. Back when I got into the series with Gold version Hoothoot was my first capture and I thought it was the coolest thing. Ever since I have incorporated Noctowl into my single player team whenever possible and trained a few competitive ones (they usually don't do much, but I have gotten a few wins with them solely because they are so uncommon that people don't know what I'm going to do with them).

Much agreed. Aurorus became a favorite of mine from the first time I saw it.

Ledian. My first Pokémon card I ever pulled from a pack of GSC cards. This was before I had ever even played any of the games (my first game was ruby) but the card stuck in my mind forever. I loved that damn card, so ledian has always been a bro.
