Let's have a negative thread for once detailing the Pokemon designs that we could do without!!
we of course know of the common 'lets hate gen 5 pokemon' thing in reference to 'pokemon designed after trash and ice cream' but putting that aside for one second, what pokemon designs personally grind your gears?
I never liked Mr. Mime - he's always a Pokemon I couldve lived without! I also don't like a lot of the legendaries in the later generations - i think they're needless! and legendaries become less special when there are TONNES of them. I don't like the three genie pokemon and im not keen on the regi's or mespirit, uxie or azelf.
This is just my opinion though. With them creating SO many pokemon, there are bound to be a few that make you think 'wow what were they thinking?'
share your thoughts!!

I agree with you, most legendaries are very unnecessary. I enjoyed the Swords of Justice, thought they were really cool! But the genies are just so hideous looking haha. Gen 5 wasn't the worst in Pokemon designs, I thought they were some of the best! Each generation has their own flops. As much as I enjoyed Gen 4, I thought Tangrowth and Lickilicky were very unnecessary evolutions haha

I don't hate these Pokémon but I don't like their designs (PokéDex Order): 1. I don't think Clefairy is cute ... It looks pretty weird. Clefable doesn't have that derpy face and that's why Clefable is pretty cute 2. Drunk-looking weed thingy with a lot of drool sticking out of it's mouth lol 3. Six weird living eggs, one of them with a creepy smirk on it's face xD 4. That animation xD Licking obsessed thing that can make your shoes shine like heck xDD 5. and Koffing was looking like a troll face on a floating ball in Gen 1 and Weezing like a lung tumor LOL 6. I'm not afraid of mimes, but GEEZ THIS THING'S WEIRD 7. I get it! A weird artic creature of some sort that wants to give you a hug and a kiss ... just too awkward (Don't be racist!) 8. Looks like a punch bag that wants to punch you back and has a weird tail with 2 eyes on it 9. Is this thing supposed to be cute ? And why on earth are females more common when Granbull totally looks like a male ? 10. Stantler seems really simple ... 11. Okay, I got that Makuhita is a sort of sumo wrestler thing, but Hariyama's just too much 12. and I really really don't like those Pokémon's design. I really don't. 13. O_O 14. and ... 15. NOOO! I DON'T WANNA DIE, PLEASE! 16. (STUNKY STUNKY) and GROOSSSS! 17. Lookie-lookie what we have here! Not only that Lickitung was weird enough, but his evo is lickier than ever. 18. BIG DOGGY'S GONNA EAT ME! This thing is freaking scary and weird ... 19. and That girl from Gen 1 created this! WHYYYYY ? 20. The heck ? 21. I got over the fact of the trash bag Pokémon Trubbish ... BUT THIS THING IS FREAKING SCARY 22. <o_o> 23. This is a Foongus ? 24. Sorry, I don't like Bisharp ... 25. Heatmor's gonna eat more! That's kinda it lol

In Victory Road on Pokemon X I always hated battling Gurdurr because I hate the design so much.
Conkeldurr on the other hand, I do like.

I'm not keen on the idea of Pokemon that 'hold things' - like Farfetch'd with its leek or Gurdurr with it's girder
but my least favourite Pokemon design is probably Crawdaunt - it's so gosh darn ugly, it looks like a sick operation on a Kingler gone wrong.

I've always thought Klinklang was one of the weirdest evolutions ever. xD

First time playing a Gen III game, I wanted a Corphish cause I like lobsters and thought it was a really neat looking Water-type. When it started evolving, I thought it was gonna be a freakin' awesome giant lobster death machine. Then it turned out to be hideous. With what looked like blue lipstick. Hideous blue lipstick. My least favorite design is Diggersby, by far. The whole hand ear things... yeah... not cool, lol. And what's up with the dirt fanny pack?

It would take me a while to sort through all the ones I dislike but I gotta say that I really dislike barbaracle or however you spell it XD I mean, his head is his 7th hand...so much why. I also don't like any of the -sage Pokemon :/ the first three are eh and then their evolutions are even worse. The water one is by far the worst though. I also don't like magmars head.i have no problem with his body, but his forehead juts out and he has bumps on his head??? Ehh

I don't like pokemon that are adaptations of inanimate objects... like Vanillite, Vanillish, and Vanilluxe, Klink, Klang, and Klinklang, Lampent, and Chandelure (I have to admit I quite like Litwick), Trubbish, and Garbodor, CoSpritzeerigus (Yamask is okay), Honeage, Doublade, and Aegislash, Klefki... I just think of pokemon as being creatures, not an every day item that's sprung to life.
Not keen on those that hold stuff either. Never minded Farfetch'd so much but I think Gurdurr and Conkeldurr look ridiculous. Oh, and not to mention the collective pokemon... ie. Dugtrio, Magneton, Exeggcute.

Oh, and I always imagined Bisharp to be what it would look like if somebody skinned a Power Ranger.

I'll be fair and pick one from each generation here...
1st - Fearow. Its just so ugly. It's maybe the only reason I've never liked this pokémon.
2nd - Meganium. It's just a cheap Venusaur in design.
3rd - Lunatone. It was a toss-up between this and Solrock, but Lunatone loses out due to how BORING it is.
4th - Probopass. It's just a Nosepass with a majestic 'tache.
5th - Trubbish. No explanation necessary.
6th - Klefki. Also no explanation necessary.
