Sneaseler - I hated it when it was first revealed. Weavile is one of my all time favourite Pokemon, so I was *pissed* that the devs decided to replace it with a weird, lanky, gross-colored version of it. But... I still see some of the things I like about Weavile in this, so it's grown on me enough that I now think it's quite decent. It'll never be Weavile, but on its own, it's 'aight. Honestly might grow to like it more yet.

Dracozolt - Hate it just as much conceptually as the others, but this particular design masks the inhumanity of it waaay better than the other ones. If you don't look at it too closely, you can almost picture this as just an ordinary creature with a huge hind quarter. I think I overrated this a bit, but it's still by far the best of the 4 fossils imo. I like dinosaurs a lot, so this manages to be one of the better of the gen for me.

Poltegeist - Noticable improvement over its pre-evo for me. I like the little tea spirit hiding inside of a tea pot a lot more than the tea cup itself having a face stuck on it. It's kinda cute how it peeks out, and how it has little feet dangling down. Not too bad as far as objectmons go.

Hatterene - Slightly underrated this I think. It's quite a competent Gardevoir expy. Just pleasent to look at. Not something I really want on my team, but I don't mind it showing up. Did this really need to become an archetype, though? Especially when so far none of them have come close to being as good or popular as Gardevoir itself?

Coalossal - Finally. How did Carkoal do so much worse than this? To me, they're very similar in theme and appearance, and I dislike both for the same reasons, so I struggle to rationalize that there's such a big difference in placement.

There's 4 pokemon still in which I firmly dislike. My #94 (especially), #85, #76, #73. But the other 46 range from "ok" and up, so my comments should be mostly more positive from here.
