77. Meloetta

Originally Nominated by: SuperWhiscash
First Appeared in: Pokemon Black/White
Gen 5 Ranking: 16/20
Fun Fact: This thing is bound to piss me off because it's going to come out before Genosect

I honestly just now realized how much I dislike Meloetta. I really don't understand why I put it so high. There are a few things I hate about the newer gens... Here, I'll list them
1)The Legendary Explosion (seriously, 7% of all pokemon are "legendary" isn't that a bit much).
2)More Event Legendaries (When there was 1 in a generation that was bad enough, now we need 4?)
3)Forme Changes (The only ones I like are Rotom, if you're going to make new Formes, just make a new pokemon, especially when you have crap like Silcoon and Cascoon as separate pokemon)
4) Musicals/Contests/etc
5)Battle Subway/Whatever Hax

This pokemon alone falls under 3 of the things I hate and really doesn't have any redeeming qualities. Hell I could even give it that it has unique typing, but Girafarig already covers it's primary typing. It's forme change is also pretty stupid. I mean, I can't imagine it being easy to use considering you have to waste a move slot and an action to do it, and it'll probably land in Ubers or OU tier where both of these things are pretty crippling. At least Relic Song puts the opponent to sleep 20% of the time when she uses it, but I doubt that justifies it. I don't know why they didn't just make her like Deoxys and make the formes permanent. Maybe it is useable, but it seems like it would require more of a pain in the ass than most strategies and it would be easily anticipated. And why do we all of a sudden need another song pokemon? Was Jigglypuff all of a sudden not cutting it? And why is it not female? It's clearly a female but they made it genderless despite already giving several legendaries genders. Like I said, I don't know what possessed me to put this thing so high. If I'm looking at the list, it probably should have been somewhere in the 85-90 range.
