Can we have a thread to just appreciate and discuss our favourite monsters from this series?

For me, it's this nigga right here. People like to shit on Gen 2 for its simple "plushie" designs, but I think this approach worked perfectly for Crobat. It's a spiked ball with wings and a cool face. What more could you want? Turned a previously unloved shitmon into a total bromon. And you can catch it in nearly every game too. I have to actively resist the urge to catch myself a Zubat every time I see one, because I'd be using it in every playthrough if I gave in to that temptation.
