The Litwick line. When it first was brought in, like most others, I thought the idea of a haunted chandelier for a Pokemon was plain stupid. The only Pokemon that pissed me off more than that were Muk and Trubbish. However, I ended up using one after all, and not only did it turn out to be a beast, I just grew to accept and like the guy as I went along. Its typing is definitely wicked.

Basically, the entire TF2 themed team. Especially the Heavy as an Audino.

Goomy. It literally looks like colored snot and it sounds like it's drowning. However seeing it animated and how cute it was I started to and ended up, liking it.

I always thought Froakie was too stuffy to be any reliable. Thought he would evolve into the ultimate British stereotype, complete with foam monocle and top hat. Boy, was I ever wrong. Turns out, he actually evolves up to a ninja and gains the Dark type in the process! Thus, I abandoned my original plan to get Fennekin at the start of the game.
Another Pokemon who grew on me was Blaziken. Just what my imagination did to him, painting him as a dorky little shyster who's best friends with Fluttershy. Due to this, I quickly cancelled all plans to start with Mudkip in the Hoenn Remakes and replacing that with Torchic. I always thought Blaziken was eh in terms of stats and looks. I mean, self-cooking chicken teriyaki!? Ever since the incident with Tyra on Route u8, I always hated Ludicolos. Then, I found a Lotad in Route 102. She was so cute! I named her Mabel and painted her as an even dorkier love interest to George. Now, she's one of the guys who helped me defeat the Elite 4. -------------------- This is funny. (click to show ) |

I used to dislike Stunfisk, but Cilan's Stunfisk in the anime made me fall in love with Stunfisk. The anime did that to a lot of Pokemon I didn't originally like, like standard Oshawott. I loved his evolutions always, but Ash's won me over to loving Oshawott

For me its always a case of finally having to use the pokemon in a game that causes me to warm up to them, so long as they're actually good.
I have a list in fact of Pokemon that I started out being rather avoidant of, but now have great memories. Venusaur. I hated how in Pokemon stadium his eyes would turn bloodshot whenever he attacked, he just struck me as unbelievably ugly and useless, though in X and Y, I chose Bulbasaur, and its Mega Evolution and my ability to see that he was suited as a tank all along made me appreciate him more. Parasect. Useless Useless Ugly Useless. But Strangely in a Pokemon Yellow playthrough, My Parasect named "Moonside" was one of the strongest members of my party. I don't hate him anymore, but I probably wont choose him over my other favs. Omanyte. Praise Helix, adorable little god. Quagsire. Although I always loved Wooper I hated Quagsire until Pokemon Colosseum made me use one. Ludicolo. MIROR B. THE PAIN, THE RAIN, THE DANCE, THE AGONY. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. Exploud. I grew up and started to love big beasty monsters like Nidoking and Exploud, but Exploud I used to hate as a kid cuz he was just so ugly with that mouth. Ninjask, and Shedinja. I discovered Baton pass and Shadow Sneak and suddenly these Pokemon weren't useless garbage after all. False and Relay are the back bones of my team on AS. Also Shedinja's tendency to "tough out" a hit with the Amie System makes me "aww" every time. Nosepass and Probopass. Like Ninjask and Shedinja, Info the Probopass (Relay False Info) is the set up and tank of the team, I found Nosepass by chance while rock smashing in AS and thought I might as well keep this hard to find Pokemon. Despite being under leveled, it breezed through Flannery's gym on its own. Probopass still strikes me as an ugly pokemon, but I don't mind as much now. Also you can press down his hat in Pokemon Amie. Kyurem and Reshiram. I hate both of their designs, but White Kyurem makes up for BOTH of them by far.

I wouldn't say I ever hated this pokemon, but i honestly never even considered using this pokemon until I saw shadypenguinn using him in a battle once and I have fallen in love with it ever since. Weezing and it's will-o-wisp has saved me in countless battles and it has now become an integral part of my competitive team.
Now when it first came out I thought Slurpuff was the most ridiculous, freaky looking little thing in the pokemon world. Then I found out it had unburden + Belly Drum..... LOOOL I guess once you give a pokemon a chance in battle it can surprise you. -------------------- |

Dedenne! <3 When I first saw the design for it (in a leak? not sure anymore) all I could think was 'Oh no, not another Pikachu spin-off'. I never really did anything with it in Pokemon X & Y, until someone send me one on WT. At first I thought 'what is this?', followed shortly by the thought 'dang, this thing looks cute'. Next thing I knew I threw it in my party and put Pokémon Amie on. If anyone ever activated a Dedenne in Pokémon Amie, I don't need to tell you how absolutely ADORABLE the little fricking bugger is!!
.. and after that I completely fell in love with it, put it in my second team on my Y file and love it up to this day! <3 -------------------- |

It's not like I hated it before (I didn't. I loved it a lot, actually), but Moon has really increased my fondness for Zygarde. I have one on my team currently, and ol' Jormungandr's pretty beast. He saved my ass when I fought Hapu by taking out her annoying Flygon with Core Enforcer. Her Gastrodon took him down, though. I ended up having to finish off her team using my Incineroar, Ganondorf. A few Darkest Lariats nabbed me a win, thank God. And mine has a pretty good moveset, IMO. It's a tad heavy on Ground moves, but that serves me well enough, as he's my only relatively high-level Ground-type. And Land's Wrath Z-movified? 185 power Tectonic Rage, yo.

I'd have to say Butterfree. I used to raise my Caterpies, evolve and box them until I decided to finally try to Nuzlocke.
So one of the first Pokemon I got was Charlie the Caterpie and he really surprised me as he became my ATV and damn near single handedly took out the Elite 4! I was just like "You're a beast!! Why have I never really raised one of you before?" And so I've tried keeping more open mind to Butterfree and bugs in general since. XD -------------------- |

I used to dislike Drowzee and Hypno. But nowadays, I love them. especially Hypno. It's just...awesome. And I love the creepy factor.
