>basic bitch dragonIt's one of, if not THE first Pokémon you obtain, it's allowed to be basic
>not actually a dragonNot only is it now actually a dragon, but even when it wasn't dragon was an overpowered typing and would be game breaking on a starter
>boring colorationIt's... Orange? What the fuck how exactly would YOU improve its color scheme?
>shitty statsThis has never been true, and even in the age of power creep its megas push it to the top of OU. In fact once it got belly drum it became a threatening sweeper even in old OU and didn't drop to the lower tiers until Gen 4 with sneaky pebbles crippling it.
>KantoronThis alone is not a valid criticism, even though most Kanto mons are indeed shit.
