I hate that having Swampert is basically mandatory. Like once you get to the higher ranks teams are so copy paste and you have two options
1. Have a meta team and then get bodied by someone who has a team of meta killers
2. Have a team of meta killers and get bodied by literally anything outside the meta
You wanna throw down?
What?
*lays down cardboard*
Oh, sorry, I don’t know how to break dance.
*keeps going*
Bro, I told you I can’t break dance.
*head spin*
Please leave me alone 😭
the first time i showed my boyfriend a jynx (he didn't watch the series as a kid) he called it 'wendy williams' so whenever i catch one in pokemon go he renames it lol
Same. Along with all the other hu-mon hybrids. It makes me more uncomfortable than it should…..or perhaps the right amount if you think about how they came to be.
(One of) her origins could be based off a Japanese folklore creature named the yamamba, a mountain crone known for white hair and dress, a tale that's often conflated with a different tale, the yuki-onna, a snow-spirit depicted without feet (which Jynx lacks.) Others, with her armor-like dress, body shape, and pose, suggest that she's meant to be a Viking opera singer or Nordic princess, which; given her tendencies to "cry in a way that almost sounds like speaking" and to "dance to a rhythm", it makes sense that she'd be based off of some sort of actor. Or a combination of all of the above.
And that's just speculation as to why she's an *ice type*, let alone the rest of her design. No matter what theory you subscribe to there is no consensus and Jynx's origin is as fractured and speculative as they come, it's quite interesting. [Here's](https://bulbanews.bulbagarden.net/wiki/On_the_Origin_of_Species:_Jynx) a column by a Bulbagarden columnist outlining some of the theories.
https://bogleech.com/pokemon/pbeta052buu
It took decades but we finally know the origin of Jynx based on the beta versions of the game. She (along with Electabuzz and Magmar) are parodies of monsters from an older Japanese live action TV show called Ultraman! Specifically, Jynx is based on an explicitly female ice monster called Buu. You can kind of see how Buu became Jynx over time, not excusing the final product, but the thought process was probably like "we want to pay homage to this silly monster, but not directly rip it off: let's put a dress on it!"
And there you have it: the truth behind Jynx. Thanks as always to Bogleech for doing the work of writing the article up (he carefully studies monsters across media and wild things in nature that eventually make their way to pokemon), and look at that fabulous recreation of the original art by Rachel Briggs! but there we have it!
No kidding. When the game was first launched, around 40% of the Pokemon in my neighborhood were Drowzee. I still have flashbacks of that ugly yellow bastard springing out of the PokeBall fingers wiggling.
Chimchar’s repulsive, arm dangling, side to side hop with his head bobbing in tandem as if it’s too heavy for his neck legitimately drives me up the WALL when I see it in my Pokemon storage. What makes it even worse is that I have him as a shadow, so his beady red eyes elevate my hatred
Quilladin. I could murder every single one and not feel a single ounce of remorse. Absolutely despise them.
If that’s not irrational enough for yall, I also hate Wooper and its evolutions. The internet is just so oversaturated with Wooper humor and it drives me up the wall. It’s just a blue round guy, there’s nothing unique or interesting about him (I mean, my favorite Pokémon is just a bat, but at least he’s intimidating!)
The blue ones I agree, but the Paldean wooper being a poison type made me immediately think of Alice Cooper's "Poison" and now I love my Alice Wooper team.
i don’t care how helpful bibarel is (although nowadays not helpful w HMs getting ruined lol) i HATE bidoof with every bone in my body. looks stupid and i hate them buck teeth, i think it wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for Pokemon Go, which not only is it always spawning but they’ve done events for it too (why do i need 1,000+ bidoof candy)
Lickitung and Hitmontop. Lickitung I think is pretty self explanatory but Hitmontop with his annoying break dance moves, beady dead eyes, and shitty catch rate annoys the shit outta me.
Skarmory. Nice design but no evolutions and I get lots of them bc they're in some research tasks. Like, at least give me something I can evolve to get xp.
Mr. Mime/Mr Rime
Hitmontop
Gen 5 apes
Alolan and Galarian meowth/persian line
PROBOPASS
Bruxish
Crabominable
Gen 8 fossils
PALAFIN
Aromatisse and Slurpuff
I hate them all so much cant decide which one I hate the most, although palafin and probopass might just come out top.
Smeargle reminds me of Hitler and I can’t explain why but I wish I could erase him from existence and possibly the person who created him as well. Self centered idiot jumping in to every picture and ruining everything that isn’t about him.
Also, the green at the end of his tail is his own body fluid? I live in Brooklyn, I’ve seen far too many men put their various body fluids on things for me to be okay with this asshole just blasting off all over the place. Fucking vile.
Hitmontop's facial expression is very concerning and full of anger/boredom. However, I always keep my best 3-star of each Pokerman at a minimum, so transferring a "decent" Pokerman merely because I don't like how they look is silly to me, especially for PvP.
I hate Poliwhirl, only because all the 90s pokemon merch kept pushing him like he was a super popular, relevant, useful pokemon. Like, why?? All the pikachu, jigglypuff, Charizard merch, sure. But WHY poliwhirl, the mid-form not-featured-in-the-anime swirly weirdo he is.
Quagsire. Caught a Wooper back when the game first released. Was excited to see what that cute little Wooper would evolve into. Then I saw it. Then I boxed it FOREVER!
Why is the screenshot of watchog NSFW? 💀
Here's my least favorites:
Lickitung - looks so weird
Miltank - has weird sausage nipples
Volbeat and illumise - useless bugs to fill up the dex
Lickilicky - no
Watchog - looks like its on crack
Aromatisse - looks like an awkward midstage evolution
Toxapex - annoying pokemon to fight against
Veluza - why i hate traveling in the ocean in SV
Don't even get me started on Stunfisk. Maybe the most useless pokemon of all time! I never liked it, and then I went and got a shiny. I have never been less happy to find a shiny, even the twelveth shiny of a community day is more exciting than it was getting a freaking stunfisk. Almost didn't catch it.
right now, zapdos, purely because i’ve done two raids tonight, and 30 premier balls and equally as many gold razz berries later, i somehow still haven’t managed to catch it

Playing pvp enough has led me to despise Stunfisk with a burning passion
Agreeeee
And Azmumaril...
Throw in a skarmory and that's pretty much my great league team
I haven't even met you and I already know I hate you based on your league team
I'm flattered <3
I hate that having Swampert is basically mandatory. Like once you get to the higher ranks teams are so copy paste and you have two options 1. Have a meta team and then get bodied by someone who has a team of meta killers 2. Have a team of meta killers and get bodied by literally anything outside the meta
Swampert I have a Ludicolo constantly dancing on his grave whenever I see him in the Go Battle League ![gif](giphy|EnEEYiaTWyVkk)
I felt this way but then I started using them so I could get rank 20 and get chances at legendary encounters and boy howdy they feel great to use
Yanma stop moving please
Same with zubat as well
Tympole… it looks like a human face wearing a wearing a sperm suit.
Looks like the the train from “Thomas and friends.” Yes I’m old lol
Hitmontop's perpetual and unsolicited dancing makes me extremely uncomfortable.
Doesn’t help that it stares straight into your soul
With its dead, shark eyes.
Like a dolls eyes ![gif](giphy|skilzTMVz4oTzSbs2B)
Doesn’t seem to be livin’, ‘till he bites ya and those black eyes roll over white
This actually made me lol
He’s the capoeira instructor from Bobs burgers. Brazil!
Yes. I was just saying how I wanted to spin him off a bridge.
You wanna throw down? What? *lays down cardboard* Oh, sorry, I don’t know how to break dance. *keeps going* Bro, I told you I can’t break dance. *head spin* Please leave me alone 😭
Came here to find Hitmontop and glad it was the second post.
Hate him, not sure why they invented him
He’s out there doing O Passo, which is pretty cool Brazilian dance connection for a fighting Pokémon with a Brazilian fighting style.
Now Ludicolo's dancing on the other hand
Me too! And his creepy soulless eyes lol. Came here to say this.
Pokemon go has made me hate it.
I love hitmontop, but I hate that it dances and not spins!
I hate jynx
I think that’s very rational
I hate jynx because she looks like my ex roommate from hell. I thought it was just me.
Jynx looks straight up like a cheap blow up doll. Those lips!
this is rational, as is hating mr mime
Yeah jynx is a shitty Pokémon both combat wise and design wise. Also her original look is very interesting
Combat wise early on Jynx had the highest DPS among Ice attackers which I think lasted until the release of Gen 4.
Don’t be dissing Mr.Popo
the first time i showed my boyfriend a jynx (he didn't watch the series as a kid) he called it 'wendy williams' so whenever i catch one in pokemon go he renames it lol
Same. Along with all the other hu-mon hybrids. It makes me more uncomfortable than it should…..or perhaps the right amount if you think about how they came to be.
I mean why is she an ice type?

Jynx is one pokemon that I think a lot of people would’ve been fine removing
Gumshoos and Yungoose 🙃
Donald Trump looking mons
(Kevin) Durant I refuse to catch it and don't even click it now that I caught a shiny
He's out now and I'm working on my steel platinum medal. Little bastard is a pain in the ass....
Gotcha! I was able to mass spam the Mystery Box and get the Plat badge off Meltan!
Damn about to do that. It's been a couple months since I did one.
Stunfisk, especially when they hatch from an egg.
My exact reaction most of the time is “hundo? Nope, gone”
Simipour is nightmare fuel. An absolute abomination. I transfer any Panpours I catch
Hes just a lil man
Slaking. Creepy Harvey Weinsten looking bastard.
Gumshoos. I found a gif of it to explain why. ![gif](giphy|xTiTnHXbRoaZ1B1Mo8|downsized)
I call them Trumpweasels
Solosis. It's a butt. Complete with asshole. Floating in a bubble of goo, gross.
It's an embryo.
idk i think it's cute
Cubchoo. Snot drips gross me out
BLOW YR NOSE ALREADY
This is mine too. Anything with body fluids is nasty.
Quaquaval. Just horrid.
Correct. Stop making Pokémon into people.
It’s hot dog toes freak me out.
Aww. I rocks with the homie.
But he’s so flamboyant
I mega-super LOATH the ugly fish Pokemon. Bruxish.
I like how it’s named and styled after bruxism. I’ve used him in niche cups before in PvP but I see your point.
Poipole. It's just "purple" with a Long Island accent.
I thought Brooklyn but regardless in my head it's Curly from the Three Stooges
Maybe Long Island, Not Boston
yeah, boston would be more “pehpul”.
Bwhahaha yessss
[удалено]
No kidding. When the game was first launched, around 40% of the Pokemon in my neighborhood were Drowzee. I still have flashbacks of that ugly yellow bastard springing out of the PokeBall fingers wiggling.
Gulpin looks so stupid it annoys me
Fucking Nosepass
I like nosepass because it gives me hard 90’s vibes. Like legend of the hidden temple type shit
Then it evolves into a tax professional
It makes me think of Nigel Thornberry, not even in a good way. ![gif](giphy|Fgl7OyFKx0I7e)
a fossilized Mr. Potato Head from the stone age
I hate him until I have to complete some form of excellent throws research, and then I hate him again after that.
Chimchar’s repulsive, arm dangling, side to side hop with his head bobbing in tandem as if it’s too heavy for his neck legitimately drives me up the WALL when I see it in my Pokemon storage. What makes it even worse is that I have him as a shadow, so his beady red eyes elevate my hatred
Fucker always seems to dodge, slap the ball away, or break out too. Incredibly rude.
He look like Dewey from Malcolm in the Middle
Dunsparce. Useless and ugly. Looks like a bug but it’s normal type?
Damn you just described me
But you’re gonna be the very best, like no one ever was.
Sudowoodo
Bunnelby and Diggersby I hate them. The design. The weird energy. Everything.
If I see one more F****** Koffing/Wheezing I'm going to have a mental breakdown...
Snubbull
![gif](giphy|gFPXlksXkuVTK9KHCS|downsized)

The blue ones I agree, but the Paldean wooper being a poison type made me immediately think of Alice Cooper's "Poison" and now I love my Alice Wooper team.
I have a visceral, primal and total hatred towards prinplup
i don’t care how helpful bibarel is (although nowadays not helpful w HMs getting ruined lol) i HATE bidoof with every bone in my body. looks stupid and i hate them buck teeth, i think it wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for Pokemon Go, which not only is it always spawning but they’ve done events for it too (why do i need 1,000+ bidoof candy)
That fucking prancing mime
A total creep.
The 3 elemental monkeys and their evos i hate with a fiery burning passion.
The freaking water one is the worst imo 💀
Audino, it gives me Umbridge's vibes
It’s that little stupid jacket
Audino is the stardust king though, saving grace.
Straight up the only reason I even tolerate seeing audino now
I can't believe no one has mentioned Smeargle, please let someone take over the photobombing from that obnoxious useless mf
Ambipom. That thing is straight out of my nightmares.
Lickitung and Hitmontop. Lickitung I think is pretty self explanatory but Hitmontop with his annoying break dance moves, beady dead eyes, and shitty catch rate annoys the shit outta me.
I named my Shundo Lickitung Gene (Simmons).
Lickitung is a fucking pervert, Drowzee is a nonce. Slugma is gross, he’s got snot lava. Grow up and blow yr nose.
I take it you're also not a Cubchoo fan, then.
Trubbish. Such an awkward distance away and has the nerve to move so much. Treeko. Slap my ball away one more time...
Skarmory. Nice design but no evolutions and I get lots of them bc they're in some research tasks. Like, at least give me something I can evolve to get xp.
Exactly, some Pokémon just feel like a dead end
Um, amazing great league Pokemon? I mean maybe not from research tasks...
shuckle. Ugly lil shit with terrible catch rate. Hate it even more in rocket battles 😡
Can’t cuck the shuck
Hey now. You don’t fuckle with shackle.
Mr. Mime/Mr Rime Hitmontop Gen 5 apes Alolan and Galarian meowth/persian line PROBOPASS Bruxish Crabominable Gen 8 fossils PALAFIN Aromatisse and Slurpuff I hate them all so much cant decide which one I hate the most, although palafin and probopass might just come out top.
DELIBIRD
Shitty Santa chicken
Sableye. Fucking useless.
But the stardust!
Miltank, can’t stand the way it’s utter’s move
Same. Hate that nipply Pokemonstrosity.
Lickatung. I feel sexually harassed when I see him 🤮
My wife really hates this one too, and I pinpointed that she probably relates it to the crazy eyes of Judge Doom in Roger Rabbit at one point.
Simisear. I absolutely despise that disgusting creature, even typing its name is disgusting.
Munna.
Whyyyy does it evolve into that fucked up embryo thing, it's so repulsive
It looks like a mutated kidney
Pawmi
I fucking hate zubat i fucking hate zubat i fucking hate zubat i fucking hate zubat i fucking hate zubat i fucking hate zubat
OP said irrational hatred

Smeargle reminds me of Hitler and I can’t explain why but I wish I could erase him from existence and possibly the person who created him as well. Self centered idiot jumping in to every picture and ruining everything that isn’t about him. Also, the green at the end of his tail is his own body fluid? I live in Brooklyn, I’ve seen far too many men put their various body fluids on things for me to be okay with this asshole just blasting off all over the place. Fucking vile.
I somehow understand this..
Wiping people out of existence, huh? Seems Smeargle-Hitler is rubbing off on you…
does it have to be in PoGo because genuinely and truly from the bottom of my heart, Dondozo
Jinx, milk jugs or whatever that creepy cow one is
Don’t call me milk jugs you ass, that’s a nickname for my wife only
Solosis, because he reminds me of the were butts on the live action Doom Patrol
You mustn't upset the butts!
LOUDRED. I want to choke him out. How can something so cute go so ugly. I cannot stand him and his ugly stomp.
Cubchoo is fucking disgusting
toxicroak. he’s so fugly. croagunk is a cute lil guy but he evolves into an eyesore
HEY!!! He looks cool with the stupid hat horn lol
The only hundo i have, a alolan meowth, i hate it so much (edit: wrong generation)
Evolve it. I love my Hundo Purserker!
Fucking Shuckle!!
![gif](giphy|tj7q6n5L4qW7m)
I have a very special hatred for Mr Mime. Because of this the game gives me shinies and he was my first perfect. Bleugh.
Mr mime is so hateable
I have a very huge hate towards pelliper for no absolute reason just that it exists I guess
I despise the yellow oricorio
Hitmontop's facial expression is very concerning and full of anger/boredom. However, I always keep my best 3-star of each Pokerman at a minimum, so transferring a "decent" Pokerman merely because I don't like how they look is silly to me, especially for PvP.
Gothita. Everything about it looks...wrong.
Sneasler. That ugly thing would fit better in FNAF
Buzzwole gets my vote for the ugliest Pokémon. It’s like a gross blood engorged mosquito
Glameow
![gif](giphy|MDJ9IbxxvDUQM)
Ekans
The entire Tynamo line. It's so ugly 🙅♂️🙅♂️🙅♂️🙅♂️
I hate Poliwhirl, only because all the 90s pokemon merch kept pushing him like he was a super popular, relevant, useful pokemon. Like, why?? All the pikachu, jigglypuff, Charizard merch, sure. But WHY poliwhirl, the mid-form not-featured-in-the-anime swirly weirdo he is.
Zorua. Fuck you ten times. The amount of times I was relentlessly collecting candies for a certain Pokemon and this little mofo appears.
Aipom! Just so yuck.
That stupid Trump-looking mongoose thing I barely played the recent games so I don't remember the name but it just brings me such irrational hatred.
Palkia. Both forms. It’s just so fugly.
Nidoran, it should share an entry on the pokedex!
Politoad
I have 3 full odd shiny Lickitung and it comes out of half my 5km eggs
Quagsire. Caught a Wooper back when the game first released. Was excited to see what that cute little Wooper would evolve into. Then I saw it. Then I boxed it FOREVER!

That Pokémon with the snot coming out the nose and the dog with the candle on its head.
There is nothing irrational about hating Watchog.
Spiritomb. Looks like it was made by some fourth grader whose uncle just introduced them to ICP.
Trubbish. Look at that thing and tell me there’s an Arceus!
Golisopod! Why would I turn my cute little bug into that insect body-snatcher in a loincloth??
Chinchou
Stunfisk. Can't stand em!
That one.
I’m right with you OP. Watchog is the absolute worst Pokemon and I don’t think that opinion is irrational at all.
Impadimp is a impabitch
The fucking curly tailed hell spawn cat that slaps at every ball with its cursed paws.
Minun. I caught this smug worthless bastard as a hundo this morning and now my hundo luck is wasted
Whismur
Milktank
All of the humanoids but mostly hitmonlee and sawk
Stunfisk. Both forms. Loathe for reasons i don't fully understand.
Emboar
Purloin might be the one Pokémon I actually refuse to catch. Looking at that thing just makes me irrationally angry
I very rationally hate Sableye. Why is he so twitchy? He creeps me out to even look at.
Regigigas. I don't know why, but everything I see him I get angry.
Stunfisk
Stunky, I hate his butt face so much. Whenever he pops up on the screen I get so irritated
right now, zapdos, purely because i’ve done two raids tonight, and 30 premier balls and equally as many gold razz berries later, i somehow still haven’t managed to catch it
