The only good thing about barbaracle is the kaiju theme is a cool design. But it's ruined because Game Freak will never do it again, because they wasted it on this ugly shitmon.

There's certain Pokemon that just require no brains whatsoever to use.

I'm guilty of using this because it's the best Lele counter, which should be added to your list.
Landrous,speed boost blaziken, and toxic orb gliscor are cancer
>>31189577
>>31189596
Don't forget Heatran.
>>31189524
carry a Magnet-Pull Magnezone @ Leftovers with:
- Substitute
- Charge Beam
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Flash Cannon
Common Utility Ferrothorn can do nothing to you:
>0 Atk Ferrothorn Gyro Ball (97 BP) vs. 248 HP / 0 Def Magnezone: 22-26 (6.4 - 7.5%) -- possibly the worst move ever
You can OHKO after a few boosts, and if you're feeling particularly nasty, you can boost to +6 and sweep afterwards.
>+2 252+ SpA Magnezone Hidden Power Fire vs. 252 HP / 168 SpD Ferrothorn: 440-520 (125 - 147.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO
>>31189596
Autism speaks:
It's technically not a counter just the best check out there due to Shadowball
Odds are they'll switch out when you come in due to Leles typically being choice item users
Mega-Gross is fun though
I play Monotype almost exclusively(I'm retarded I know). Right now Steel types are just tearing everyone's asshole because they have Celesteela now and M-Gross was unbanned. Absolutely disgusting.
>>31189577
Mega-Metagross has poor STAB though, Pre-Bank it is mostly garbage due to not carrying Ice-Punch or any other good coverage moves.I say this as Mega-Metagross is my favorite pokemon.
[x] all of the above

>>31189562
>But it's ruined because Game Freak will never do it again, because they wasted it on this ugly shitmon.
Holy fuck are you retarded, Game Freak has been making Kaiju pokemon since the first fucking generation. Why the fuck do you think Nidoking learns Surf?
had a (free) battle on battle spot tonight where the dude just stalled with galalie until he had max evasion and hit rate (due to his ability). he ran:
@leftovers
protect
substitute
sheer cold
another damaging move
pretty sure accuracy bonuses don't affect it, but the max evasion is so obnoxious. i got so close to knocking off his lefties/ even doing damage past the sub threshold, but once the evasion started climbing, it was all over
>>31189987
I will always hate this thing for effectively ending my Black Nuzlocke on route 10 by taking down the core of my team leading to the loss of several other mons due to not having the coverageI LOST MY FIRE/FIGHTING STARTER TO THIS SNOWFLAKE THROUGH CRIT HYPER BEAM
I fucking hate Mega Sableye. It's mainly because I play my bro 6v6 once a week and it's always fucking there.
>>31190789
Truly the worst pokemon to ever exist.
>>31189577
Add Mimikyu to this list. I love Mimkyu (managed to get lucky and breed a 6IV Jolly Shiny on cart) but it has to be one of the most brainless Pokemon to use ever.
>Switch in late game to sweep
>Click Swords Dance
>Tank hit because Disguise is a retarded ability
>Proceed to slap shit with Sneak, Claw and Play Rough
Optional: Attach Lum Berry in case a nigga tries to get sneaky and status you
>>31190883
Who the fuck thought this looked good?
>>31191058
My Mimikyu sucks dick
Sneak = Shadow Sneak?
>>31191058
yeah basically. but that is why it is so fun. I also like choice scarf volt switch xurkitree, it makes for a good volt turn core with lando t
>>31191213
Yes
>>31191226
Is his speed to low to sweep with?
>>31191240
It only has a base speed of 96, and at max speed (+ nature and all, I ran Jolly on my set) still only reaches 320. That's why really, Disguise is such an important ability since there are situations where you NEED to tank a hit and run priority to maximize damage since Mimkyu would get facefucked by Garchomp dick otherwise
>>31191058
Whenever people switch it in on my Hydreigon expecting a switch, I just taunt it. It becomes maimed.
>>31189577
>>31189612
add gliscor as well
>>31190002
if i could upvote you i would bro
In competitive: genies, ferrothorn, celesteela
Design wise: goodra, brionne, any "smug" waifumon (tsareena, salazzle)
>>31191058
I would agree but the way different items are used make it more interesting honestly. While everyone runs the same set the items changes it up pretty heavily.
NOBODY POSTED IT YET
SHAME ON YOU ALL
>>31191428
>>31189524
Every Tapu and UB (except for Xurkitree)
Fuck you gamefreak for adding even more Tyranitar checks and counters, especially the roach

>Can learn Attract
>Is genderless so it does fuckall.
What did GF mean by this?
>Post Pokemon you hate battling against
- Clefable: It's Magic Guard version is the easiest wincon in the game to set up.
- Mega-Metagross: Second easiest currently.
- Garchomp: He needs to get sent to the fucking abyss that is Anything Goes tier. FUCK that thing especially the scarfed version. You ALWAYS need a hard counter or at least 2 checks for it. It's like stealth rock: the pokemon.
- Magnezone: Depending on your team it's either the least threatening opposing 'mon OR it can 1v1 at least half your team.
Usually tends to be the exception to the "neutral" coverage in most pokemon movesets..
>Post Pokemon you hate because of its design
The genie trio, The musketeers, Salamence and it's mega, Infernape, and every "pixie" pokemon after Jirachi.
>Post Pokemon you hate because its garbage
I lothe GF when it's garbage not the pokemon itself.
>>31191198
It's design is bad enough, but it's really the palette that pisses me off.
So uninspired.
I fucking hate the Wingull line.

Deserved all the nerf it got. Good fucking riddance
>>31189564
you're missing out and i almost hate you
It went from one of my favourite designs of gen 7 to one of the few pokemon I absolutely despise.
It's also completely unusable.

>>31189524
Are you kidding? I love fighting Ferrothorns. They're just setup enablers and then later you come in and rapid spin their 8 turns laying down hazards. It's great.
Every single Pokemon that auto-sets weather or terrain.
Do I really have to explain? Xurkitree is the worst, these things are so shit, I completely didnt get it people started loving it because of meta
>>31189649
Oh fuck, I've been out of monos for a long type. I always played mono steel. I guess I'll have to check it out
I'll start
>>31194468
But Nihilego is so cute.
I don't care for these two chucklefucks. They made my run in Y very tedious, plus I think they look dumb as hell. Like Pokemon wiggers.
>>31189524
>Gengar
Stupid round shadow that is praised as th best ghost type despite just being a purple blob with limbs and a shit eating grin. Can't stand the edginess that surrounds it such as the dead clefable theory.
>lucario
Hated it ever since I saw it, have refused to use one or capture oneuntil XY where I immediately boxed it for the dex pls no bannerino modslooks stupid and is pretty much a human with shorts and a dog head.
>hawlucha
Same as above regarding the human with animal head. Looks so stupid.
>>31194611
I feel you with Hawlucha. I don't know why all of /vp/ creams their pants over that thing.
>>31191198
Me. I love chesnaught. Get some taste and stop sucking frog dick.
>>31194611
Absolutely agree with Gengar. Even after the nerfs it's still a fucking pain to fight.
>>31191428
>That gen 5 meta
Fucking hated it
>>31189524
If I could remove one pokemon entirely from the game it'd be Ferrothorn. Absolutely hate fighting one even if Im carrying the correct Hidden Power.
>Pokemon I hate
Charizard both plain and X along with Blaziken. What ugly starters that nostalgia fags love to splooge over. The favoritism they get from GF doesnt help either.
Multiscale Dragonite.
Everyone hates Barney for like a decade and then it gets Multiscale and every shitter does DDance x1 into spamming Extremespeed.

Wtf i hate dylan now
THIS. I will destroy any & all who enjoy this filthy monster, IT is nothing, but pure sin.
>>31194399
eh i don't mind derp crab. i more hate how his claws open in close. it looks weird.
>>31191198
I liked it the most visually out of all Gen VI starters. The others were far from bad, though.
>>31190883
This
Horrible pokemon.
>>31194656
>Implying Greninjafags care about your shitmon
They mess with Zardbros and Lucariofags. Your shitmon is too irrelevant and ugly.
>Gliscor
>Salazzle
>Trubbish
>>31196442
>irrelevant
Sure
>Ugly
Yeah because Greninja is a good design amirite?
>>31196015
Why do you think it's so bad?
>>31194552
To be fair, Bug/Grass is one of the worst type combos to have. It stats and movepool on the other hand are actually decent.
>>31196510
I don't know, i'm indifferent towards Greninja
That doesn't stop Chesnaught from being an abomination.
>>31190883

Chesnaught is a total bro.

>Pyukumuku was my favorite Pokémon before the release.
>God Tier Cry.
>I really liked the concept of his internal organs acting as a hand.
>Heard people talking shit about his competitive use.
>Still wanted to train one.
>Learn that he can't learn any attack moves.
>Learn that only viable use for him is making him a toxic tank.
I really love Pyukumuku, but I hate what Gamefreak did to him, I was at least hoping for the pickle to have at least more supportive moves like Heal Pusle to make him a healer in doubles, but everything supportive he has is an Aromatherapy that heals him 25%.
Worse thing is that he won't ever get an evolution because eviolite.
I wish GF could give this little shit some Alternative forms with additional moves.
probably the worst design in pokemon.
Also I am mad because it takes up a steel/fighting typing when there could be something infinitely cooler.
>>31194611
I agree with gengar. It's not even that special looking, there are way better Ghost designs
>>31198592
Good side is he's the second best toxic tank in the game
Second only to toxapex
This is gen 7. They often go through a lot of research and effort to make some pokemon. How is this excusable?

Tell that to the genies

>b-b-but it's beak changes color
ooo wow and seal has a fucking horn on it's head, still awful real life animalmon
>>31200960
That's why I said often. And at least the genies are just copy pasted of each other instead of something out of an encyclopedia.

I have my reasons.

>>31201133
It's a Normal type, and it's shit.
>>31201166
I was alluding to the pokemon anime having an episode where they unironically called it a bug type the entire episode.

I don't remember that happening, my bad.

It's so fetishy that it hurts. I love dairy but this thing is too much.

this is one of my favorites but I get why people hate it
>Literal wigger pokemon
>team skull DOESN'T have this as part of their team
what the fuck?
>>31191347
Play rough says hello
>>31201198
desu I like him because he's so bad on almost all levels. That episode is part of why I like it. That the anime writers didn't even know what the fuck it was. The design is even pretty inconsistent, which is weird because they usually do a good job with weird stuff like him.
My favorite playthrough is using him to rollout throughout the entire game. Pretty fun.
The genies (all reasons)
Mega Charizard Y (cancer)
The Tapus in general (cancer)
I love the ultra beast designs but goddamn are they just fucking annoying
Smeargle
>>31194399
>It's also completely unusable.
I know "it's good in trick room" is a meme but it is actually good in trick room, it just annihilates teams unless they just Tapu Fini or something.
>>31201209
Yeah, and what does that imply else than a 2 sec cameo in a short?
Mr. Mime.
Not going to post a picture because I don't respect it enough to save a picture long enough to post it.
Who designed that stupid thing? It's ugly, it's anything but cute (despite trying desperately to be such), the proportions are freaky. I don't like it, I don't understand people who do.
Ash's mom is crazy for keeping one of those little psychopaths around, it needs to be burned alive. Sure, it's good for helping around the house, but you know what else is good for that? Machoke. Machamp. A Gardevoir or Gallade would probably be willing to help out. Heck, most humanoid pokemon would, and some would even be aesthetically pleasing.
But no. It just HAS to be one of those hideous little things.
You want to know a freaky thought?
Wild Mr. Mimes. They're out there, little pedophile beasts that are perfectly willing to rape your children, then entrap them in invisible boxes that it made. At least Hypno probably like eats it or something instead.
Bastards probably have a good idea on how to use human tools, too. You could be lost in a forest, and in the distance, see a camp fire. Are you saved? No. They're Mr. Mimes, and they're eating and raping children while keeping the spares in an invisible box, letting them watch and cry. They see you. You're surrounded. You're in a box. You're next.
Fucking Mr. Mimes.
>gets rid of rolling rock motif for the railgun instead of trying to incorporate both

It's crudely drawn and even cruder in its color palette.
You can't be serious.
I'm sorry that my Garchomp and Metagross are making people mad. I legitimately like them and use them on free singles. If it makes you feel any better the rest of my team is shit by smog's standards.
Meanwhile pic related should be banished to the 8th layer of hell for all eternity. Yes, I imply that Satan should put in the time and effort to make another layer of hell just for this thing. And the tapus. Let's throw in the 6th gen legendaries (except X y z mons) and the genie-dus mons for shits and giggles too.
