    What are some Pokémon that are so commonly praised and loved, but you just don't get the hype behind it. Perhaps you've never used one, or you've had a bad experience with one, but either way, you just don't share that excitement most people have.

    PIKACHU.

    lmao I swear this is my least favorite Pokémon by far along with Ash Greninja.
    It's not even for the design, it's just it being heccing EVERYWHERE. Other mons should get love too :c
    Tbh the design is okay, if another mon had been the mascot instead I would've probably felt the same way about it instead.

    Umbreon and Dragonite.

    Umbreon is just... blegh. I never got the appeal of its design (like what the hell is even going on with those ears and tail???). Not into edgy things either, and Umbreon definitely gives of an edgy emo vibe.

    As for Dragonite, well, it's a grotesque Charizard/Barney/noodle headed-lookin' monstrosity. Simple as that.
    I'll never understand why Game Freak decided it would be a good idea to make it the evolution to Dragonair, which on the other hand is an amazing Pokémon with a very simple but elegant design.

    I've noticed that a lot of people seem to hate Dragonite because they find it inferior to Dragonair. I feel the opposite. Dragonair's just kind of bland to me and I don't really see much appeal in it. I also feel like Eevee and it's evolutions tend to be over-hyped. I mean, I like them just fine, but I don't think that they deserve as much attention as they get.

    I honestly don't care much for the Ultra Beasts. A lot of people like them, but I think they're way overdesigned, are generally very ugly, and are just... bad.

    Riolu and Lucario. I just feel that they're too over hyped and their design does not appeal to me at all.

    Charizard.

    I don’t hate it, but I don’t like it either. It’s not particularly strong, nor does the design appeal to me at all.

    Lucario. I was never a super stoked about it. It just wasn't my type of Pokémon.

    Feraligatr is just the worst. I've just never seen his appeal, even when I used him he always felt subpar.

    Agreed 110%. Can we please chill with having Pikachu get so much special treatment? The series deserves a mascot, but let's chill a bit and spread the love. When I arrived at the Pikachu Paradise in Alola, I shivered with pain. I'm sure other people really found it to be a paradise, but I got my stickers, left, and never went back. I can't even bring myself to use Raichu because you need to train Pikachu so long to get all its moves before Thunder Stone.

    What's the the hate on Charizard? So much hate I feel like I'm suddenly the only person who likes it. Wondering if it qualifies to be in an "everyone loves it except you" thread.

    As for me... I don't like any of the Alola or Sinnoh starters, which seem to have large followings. Apart from those, I'm probably mostly in the consensus with most.
