Pokemon you dislike for dumb reasons
/vp/ do you have any pokemon you dislike for petty reasons?
I fucking hate this monkey so fucking much I have a living dex nearly fucking done but this fucker barely has any fucking events and I missed every one of them, why the fuck did game freak make this asshole so fucking rare, at any rate I'll be at 1024/1025 because they won't do more events for this dickhole monkey and to make it worse they gave him another form for no fucking reason. If not for this issue I'd like this guy because he looks cool and has fun moves.

I fucking despise this thing because not only is its English name a mouthful, it's also uncreative as fuck.
They should've just kept the Japanese name. "Strinder" sounds cool, makes sense in English, it's simple, and it's more interesting etymology-wise than "hurr durr it's toxic and electric"
I also read it as Toxitricity (with an extra "i") for the longest time, which is still terrible but flows at least a tiny bit better. The fact that the extra "i" was never there makes it even worse
It's a shame too because it's one of the only cool gen 8 Pokémon designs, I just hate every single thing about its name. "Toxtricity" sounds like something I would come up with while making shitty fakemon in MS Paint as a child
Actually the worst English Pokémon name in the franchise, which says a lot when shit like Lechonk, Gurrdurr and Seel exist

It annoys me how borts treat Chandelure like it's the greatest thing ever despite it being a lazy objectmon with a broken stat and would-be broken ability making it an obvious shillmon they fell for.

Not a shillmon but I don't really understand why it's as popular as it is

At the time maybe, but now it's the new fire/fighting. They've overused the hell out of it and now we've got ugly shit like Skeledirge and Hisuian Typhlosion

Sure but just like fire/fighting it being overused doesn't make Blaziken bad same to Chandelure
