    As the title suggests name 3 pokémon that you think have the worst designs out there.

    #1-Missingno. I think we can all agree here that this pokémon is just awful in design

    #2-Mega Gyarados Ugh they made him look like a giant shrimp -_- Looks tasty but I hate looking at it's mega form.

    #3-Jellicent Male Oh this is just the Monopoly guy transformed into a pokémon. Seriously look at them together.

    1. Missingno. is not a conventional pokemon, rather a glitch pokemon that wasn't supposed to exist at all, so...

    2. Jellicent is clearly resemblant of Mr. Pringles above everything else.

    Anyway:

    #1-Probopass. What the fuck is this supposed to represent? For a Rock/Steel pokemon with a magnetic symbolism, it makes no sense why they would give it a top hat, a big nose and a mustache composed by what i assume are iron filings or something similar. Its nose, like Nosepass', is supposed to represent a compass that always points North, but why a nose? Why not something else? And it even has more, smaller noses, to represent the other cardinal points, its just ridiculous.

    #2-Electrode. THEY JUST INVERTED THE COLOUR PATTERNS FROM VOLTORB AND GAVE IT A CHEEKY NEWCASTLE BLOKE SMILE.

    #3-Three headed pokemon. Simply because it shows laziness in design and doesn't make much sense apart from Hydreigon, who is based on Hydra, and maybe Magneton, although electromagnetism isn't the perfect justification, given that it has positive and negative magnetic poles.

    Only reason I put Missingno. was to mess with SkyPhoenix cause of what he said in Tohjo Falls earlier. As far as who Jellicent resembles more you're right it does look more like Mr.Pringles Haven't eaten Pringles in quite a long time.

    My personal choices:

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    It's my personal philosophy that all Pokemon are good Pokemon and have something worthwhile and interesting about them, because hating a Pokemon would be like hating a dog because it's not beautiful and what kind of scumbag hates a dog.

    These 3 are the pokemon that have most tested my philosophy, especially Vanilluxe. Vanilluxe and Exeggcute are 2 pokemon that seem to have very minimal thought or design put into them, and even doing things like looking up their roots just brings up "It's based on an Ice Cream" and "It is some eggs". Neither of them have had any significant role in anything I've seen nor do they see enough competitive use for me to see something interesting in how they play. Gurdurr is picked mainly because it's so insanely butt ugly and the protruding veins all over it make me feel unwell - its design is also just "weird construction worker / muscleman thing". Gurdurr I became more fond of because of its role in the PMD 3DS game, the other 2 I still have a hard time finding reasons to like them. Vanilluxe's prevo Vanillish is definitely close behind, but not Vanillite because Vanillite is extremely cute.

    Even talking about this makes me feel bad tho. Look at Vanillite's smiling face. Imagine telling it it sucks. That would be so pointlessly mean, like kicking a puppy.

    Only naming 2 because these are the only ones that annoy me
    [​IMG] First of all this thing isn't cool, it's yuck.Magmortar is a big, fat ugly mass of lava with genade launcher (noob weapon) arms and a big stupid face. Why is it part pink also? The colour scheme alone rustles my jimmies.

    [​IMG] Not alot to say here, it's a key chain. Watch out it's gonna jingle it's keys at you. Ok I get the keys aren't part of the pokemon but it's still ridiculously stupid. Hopefully its get a non-stupid looking evo to redeem its sorry ass.

    Look at this fucker, it's just a fucking seal. Its name is literally dugong spelled differently. I don't mind the ugly ones, at least they tried. But this is just lazy as fuck.

    [​IMG]
    Oh look, a ladybug. And its name is Ledyba. Where DO they come up with these wild ideas?

    [​IMG]
    And here we have a dog. Just a dog. At least Lillipup is super cute and Stoutland has that boss stache, Herdier is a terrible balance between the two that ends up being just a dog. Don't get me wrong, I love the rest of the line, but it's just a fucking dog.

    I could go on for a while, there's 2-3 in each gen that are just unoriginal fucks but these were the first I thought of.

    Eggs are not plants. Fuck off. Nor do palnts produce animal eggs but I feel like picking 2 of the same evo line would be dumb.

    [​IMG]
    Literally a pulsating pile of living shit. I am convinced this is what Greenpeace thinks will happen if GM crops take off.


    [​IMG]
    I hate this and Cascoon. Literally just a fucking oval with eyes.
    To be fair I didn't mind it until XY when they removed the threads it was suspended from which made it look like something more than a fucking oval with eyes on it. It gets this spot over Voltorb because Voltorb at least has a somewhat interesting origin story in that it may or may not be a bi-product of the industrial process of Pokéball manufacture.

    Honorary mention in Heatran, I like its front sprite and the design idea a lot. But why did they give it an anus????

    I like monkeys, but I hate the designs of these Pokémon. There are conveniently three of them. There's something sickly manufactured about them. If there was just one, I probably wouldn't have noticed much. The eyes on the Pansage are particularly irritating, so that's the one I'm listing.
    2. [​IMG]
    And then they evolve, and Simisear becomes the most horrendous of these. It is true the thing on its head does not look like...what Pansear's does, but it is still
    3. [​IMG]
    These are just gears...there is no personality to it. Less than anything like Magneton or Starmie, which might theoretically have a similar problem. I'm generally not a fan of the designs of Unova Pokémon, and this is part of it.

    Mega Glalie: Game Freak! What the hell were you THINKING?!?!?! At least Mega Steelix had cool stuff added to it but seriously. A moustache. It seems to be a Probopass put in a freezer.
    Probopass: Speaking of which...
    Jynx: I hate Nikki Minaj enough already!
    Wow, people really can complain. -_-

    This piece of shit is its evos in spheroid form, which is especially terrible considering the jigglypuff came first and was already rounded enough.

    [​IMG]
    Sunflower with a face, called Sunflora. Sun flora. The word Flora comes from the latin for Flower.

    [​IMG]/[​IMG]
    Don't get me wrong, they have cool evos. But come on man, an acorn and a lily pad?

    There are others I would have said but these are just lazy, and others I would have said are already mentioned above.


    I laughed very loudly, omg have my children.

    [​IMG] - I don't really mind the Unowns, but lbr. This thing looks closer to a G than a B.
    [​IMG] - There's ways to comment on people that dress their dogs up without making the dressed up dog look disgusting.
    [​IMG] - I'm still trying to figure out what the hell this thing represents, and the Mega doesn't help matters.

    Something tells me that wasn't the intent, and either way still inaccurate.

    wow wow wow wow wow wow hold up

    be warned bitching ahead
    >ugly palette
    Green/Purple isn't an ugly palette, the added Yellow compliments the purple as well. He's a genie, not like you'd get him all bright and shit :v

    Graveler is a based earth golem why would it have 5 extremities like a human?

    I'm sorry but there can be fat versions of animal. Fat stored as energy deposits is possible, even for reptiles. There could have been fat dome-headed dinosaurs. What exactly is wrong with the palette? Grey + Blue is cool imo, most if not all colours work with white-grey-black.


    Yes I know opinion exists but i am very fond of these pikmin

    http://pokemondb.net/pokedex/glalie scroll down to the part with name origin. But yeah, I agree that the Mega is just...um...uh...you get what I mean. :P
    And BTW what does LBR stand for?
