Pokemon you HATE.
Raikt:
Raaaaaagggggeeeeeeee.
Really, I don't hate any Pokemon. But, if I had to pick one to be the most annoying, that title would fall unto Salamence. From start to finish, it is a horrendously ugly Pokemon. I haven't seen sin that hideous since I first saw the previews to Magmortar. (More like Fagmortar. [He's actually a pretty chill dude. We hang.])
Chad29:
What part of Salamence is ugly? At all? I can kind of understand Magmortar, though I don't think he's that bad, but Salamence? In what way?
Though personally I do like the D/P version better than the R/S version. Still, I don't see anything wrong with him.
LeoReborn:
Its just another Dragon Shaped Pokemon, We have tons of em already.
Cant we have Something like Seadra, Dragon-type, but not shaped like a Dragon?

I can give you numerous reasons from an artistic standpoint, spriting standpoint, or just design standpoint.
1. It is horribly blocky compared to most other sprites. Its shape is very reminiscent of the old RBY and GSC sprites (RE: Tyranitar) even though they tried to streamline it.
2. Keeping a Pokemon that was meant to be agile that big and bulky leads to awkward shapes.
3. Its colors are a bad clash by design alone. (Even though they aren't as bad as some others.)
4. Its wings look like they were cut from a plastic sheet and then glued onto its back.
5. Its body is far too disproportionate for its size, stats, and relative bulk.
The only dragons I'm truly fond of are Dragonite and Flygon.
LeoReborn:
Charizard is Awesome, and hes not a Dragon type.
If you Sub Flying > Dragon, He loses his Ground-type No-hits, Meaning Earthquake OHKOs him.
Just because dragons arent plentiful, Doesnt mean we put out a sad excuse for one..=P
