Oddish
I like you Oddish. You always seem happily content even though you're a poor little Pokemon in a world where Grass/Poison has always meant bad news. It makes me sad so many things want to pick on you! Stat wise you're nothing noteworthy, but you're just too adorable without being useless (I'm looking at you Pikachu clones). You're based off a mandrake, which makes me wonder why so many things want to eat you if they could die from it. Still, you're probably too busy off in your own little world to worry about these things when they're not happening. All of your evolutions are pretty nice, though I wonder what inspires Belossom? I have no complaints, but I've always wondered where that came from. Also this.
Ariados
Oh.... well... I'm not too sure what to say about this Pokemon. It's a spider, which wasn't in the first game. It also has a somewhat creepy Pokedex entry for D/P/Pt. A pretty cool design, and a pretty cool cry as well. It seems awfully slow though with a base speed of only 40, yet the Pokealathon gives it a 4 in speed. This confuses me. Anyway, this thing has an interesting move pool, too bad it doesn't really have the stats to use them very well. That's all I can think of, sorry. Ariados is just one of those Pokemon. It isn't "bad", it isn't "good", it's just there. Choose it if you feel like it.
Tropius
Ok I know I give Hoenn a lot of flak, but you're pretty neat. You're a grassy Brontosaurus with giant leaf wings with fruit growing on your neck. Anyone calling you unoriginal are prime candidates to pleasure you in disturbing and illegal ways I won't go into. It's a shame you're mainly an HM slave, even if you can't do too much else, you're too unique to be reduced to such a role. You're also a kind Pokemon since you let hungry kids and Pokemon eat the fruit off your neck. Must be nice having an food supply so close to you, though I imagine the bug Pokemon won't leave you alone. Fun Fact: Venusaur is the exact same size as you. Somehow.
Mismagius
You evolve from one of my favorite Pokemon of all time, why did it take so long for me to warm up to you? Stubbornness perhaps. Anyway, you seem to behave mostly the same, minus the "absorbs fear" part. You're more "witchly" then "banshiee....ly?" that is to say you act a little bit less of a ghost now, not a bad thing by default. You still have trouble proving yourself when it comes to over ghosts though. At least you're better off than Banette, kind of. You have a bit of a goofy smile under that "hat" of yours, so at least you're approachable. As you look into the distance, pondering if you'll ever top that damn Gengar, fearing that you may never on occasion, remember to tell yourself "At least I invented Perish Trapping".
Well Misdreavus did ,but you evolved from it so same thing.
Galvantula
Another spider, and you evolved from that adorable Joltik. You look pretty cool, and you have an unique typing. It seems like electric types wanted to become more exciting in your generation. Besides the bug part though, is there anything that sets you apart from all the other electric types? You have some nice speed, nice attacking stats, and meh defense. Just like any other generic electri-wait, you get compoundeyes? You're telling me that your Thunder is 100% accurate? Unless Emolaga steps up its game, you've got a guaranteed spot on my team once I visit Unova. Seriously, your ability is awesome. Your only real rival is Butterfree, and when was the last time Butterfree was raining down the vengeance of the heavens?
I'm serious, electric spider is awesome.
