While I have refrained from obscene language on this page, I still may have posted a Pokémon or two that you like. Needless to say, I don't care if I hurt your feelings, but I do respect your opinions anyway. So, NO. I will not remove <insert Pokémon> because it's your favorite, but I welcome you to yell at me all you want on the [[User talk:MAGNEDETH/hate|talk page]]. | While I have refrained from obscene language on this page, I still may have posted a Pokémon or two that you like.

Generation I, the Gen that started it all. Despite listing Pokemon here, I can't hate most of these guys too much. I grew up with them! But even from the start, for one reason or another, sometimes a Pokemon just rubs me the wrong way, and I don't like it. | Generation I, the Gen that started it all.

| class="l" | You're a beginning trainer learning the ropes. Rattata is everywhere and these things learned {{m|Quick Attack}} early. The opposing trainers loved to use it on the weak new trainer. Even as the game goes on, these things never go away. They're fast, and they have {{m|Super Fang}} (and in Generation IV, {{m|Sucker Punch}}). Now, Raticate can do some nifty things, and getting beaten by a Raticate has to hurt, but when you're playing single player, there's far better Pokemon to use, and they're pretty annoying to get used against you. | |||

I will say, it is fast, hits decently hard (with [[Light Ball]] that is), and {{p|Raichu}} isn't the worst thing in the game but, there's {{p|Magnezone|better}} {{p|Jolteon|choices}}. If Pikachu wasn't the mascot, it would just be a generic middle evolution, but no, it IS the mascot, so this otherwise mundane electric rodent is everywhere. | ||

| class="l" | | | class="l" | What we have here is a failure to design a Pokemon. They just took {{p|Clefairy}} and stretched it out, making istreally bland, awkward Pokemon. I really don't have much to say about Clefable because I find it so bland. Bland design, bland appearance, stats, cry, evolution relatives! It's movepool isn't bland, and it has {{a|Magic Guard}} (one of my favorite abilities), but why bother? It's stats are too mundane to do anything significant. Though, you might be able to put your opponent to sleep. No, not from {{m|Sing}}, but from how boring it looks. | ||

| class="l" | | | class="l" | I just don't like Hypno. It's goofy looking, its cry is too long, its stats are terrible. Shamefully, I don't have much to say on this one. I guess I could say that Gen I gave us a ton of Psychic-types, and Hypno sits at the bottom of the stack, especially after the Special split of Gen I. Besides, how can anyone like [[EP027|a kidnapper]]? | ||

| class="l" | High {{ | | class="l" | High speed means it will either {{m|Thunder Wave|paralyze}} you or {{m|Explosion|blow up}} in your face before you get to attack. Low attack means that it will do hardly any damage. Add to that they're inability to learn {{type|Electric}} attacks by level-up (until [[Gen III]] and nothing terribly good as of now), and you've got one useless Pokémon. {{p|Voltorb}} and Electrode are the same thing, fast and pointless. Possibly my most hated of Generation I. | ||

Moreover, you'd think that because they were so hard to find, they would be super useful, and to people who don't like playing the game, they are! I hate walls...a wall to me is someone who refuses to play. Stalling your opponent into submission is just a waste of time. We play the games to have fun. Sitting there, wasting time as you damage it, and it heals it off is not fun, its boring. | ||

| class="l" | | | class="l" | Let me be clear. This has nothing to do with [[Pokémon controversy|race]], the {{wp|Nordic race|Nordic people}}, {{wp|Viking}}s, {{wp|Ganguro}}, {{wp|Yamanba}}, {{wp|Zwarte Piet}}, {{wp|It ain't over till the fat lady sings|opera singers}}, {{wp|Yuki-onna}}, or [[Jynx_(Pokémon)#Origin|frostibe]]. It has nothing to do with any of them because we still don't know what Jynx is based off of, and even so, it would be ridiculous for me to hate it for what it's based on (specifically anyway). No, regardless what it's based on, it's hideous, it has a stupidly long cry, and it's overall just a creepy Pokemon. Especially in it's 3D appearances. I think Jynx was just a bad idea from the start and it's certainly proven unnecessarily troublesome for Nintendo as well. | ||
