oh yeah we were doing these too
#15: Dragon
Not a lot of Dragon types out there and while there’s obviously some Dragons I love, I do get tired of a bunch of them being so strong/liked by other people. It’s hard to get excited when nearly every fully evolved of this type is overall base 600 and I have to see its face everywhere. I get that they’re supposed to be strong and hard to raise. But not a lot of them really strike me as “epic/majestic” like you would think dragons would. Also I think a lot of dragons are kind of…ugly. And there’s not a lot of them in the first place! A lot of them are legendaries also which I’m not terribly fond of either. Call it elitism/hipsterism/whatever you want but as a type, dragon falls behind a lot of the others for me.
#14: Bug
I don’t like bugs in real life and I’m not sure a lot of people do. But it’s funny how Poke-fied versions of some bugs are really cool. Preferred type of the deadliest kind of trainer, the Bug Catcher, the type was famous for being the only typing Super Effective against the almighty Psychic types in Gen I. The problem was that the strongest Bug move was Twineedle. And carrying a lineup of three Caterpies, a Metapod and two Weedles didn’t help either. Thankfully later gens fixed this with Megahorn and Bug Buzz/X-Scissor further on. There’s really only a handful of Bug types I like enough to include in my overall top Pokemon lists though but it’s not because they’re bugs or anything.
