And seriously, anybody who says "all of them", "anything after the first 150/151" or "anything after the first 250/251" will be given a stern look for being annoyingly predictable and unoriginal >:C I'm really hoping to get answers from earlier gens. I know that we're so used to seeing them that it's hard to see the stupidness of some of their designs, but... Some gen 1 Pokemon really are stupid looking. Seriously. I know gen 4 had some terrible ones, but those are obvious. Give me stuff that ISN'T so obvious at first. To start this off...  Seriously, what the hell is Magmar supposed to be? Why does its head look like that? And I'll get this one out of the way.  |

Offhand from the new set, Garbador(I think that's the name?) looks really stupid. As for my least favorite design of all time? Girafarig.

Probopass is a little more likeable when you realize he's designed after Mario.
I can't remember their names offhand, but the garbage ones in Black and White. Really hate those, like to dreading the fact they will continue to show up in future games.

Most of Generation 5 look ridiculous to me (Not quite going against your rule in the OP I hope), they just depress me. Whenever I complained about Pokemon Diamond I just posted pictures of Probopass as though it was a valid claim for the game not being very good. Really odd looking thing. And again slightly wrong but some of the sprites from Gen 1 were hilariously bad, my favourite being paedophile Golbat. Sprite.png) |

While I like Squirtle and think that Blastoise is badass... I have always hated the way that Wartortle looked.

.png) the first time i saw an Aipom was on a pokemon trading card from a friend. I thought it was so ridiculously looking that it had to be fake.  And the evolution is even worse  |

Something that caught me when looking back at then however, is that if you add proper colour to some old sprites they look dead on brilliant. I think the lack of colours on old games played a part, and it shows graphics on portable Pokemon games can only go so far and haven't improved as much as you may think. No excuse for Wigglytuff's eye problem in Pokemon Green though.  |

Though ridiculous-looking or not (though personally, I love it - I have a Wobbuffet plushy even), Wobbuffet is a total badass. |

Also based off a comedian. Though ridiculous-looking or not (though personally, I love it - I have a Wobbuffet plushy even), Wobbuffet is a total badass. True, it is pretty badass. Especially in the anime where the rules of PP are roughly defined at best, so essentially it could own most Pokemon in the show by using Counter over and over. That, and well, it is one of the best meat shields in the franchise. It can take a lot of punishment, the perfect guy to have in your team to take some punishment so you can heal/revive your other Pokemon. |
