Gen VIII - Sobble is great but I don't like Inteleon. Cramorant is funny but the fossils really drag it down and I don't really like any of the other Pokemon.

Gen VII - Awful starter and a bunch of blah. Golisopod is the only Pokemon here I like at all.

Gen IV - Piplup is great but Empoleon is kinda disappointing. Floatzel and Gastrodon lines are solid enough to put it above the bottom two.

Gen VI - I'm a big fan of Froakie and all its evolutions, but I don't care for the megas, Clawitzer is only okay, and everything else is no good.

Gen V - Samurott line, Jellicent, and Swanna are great, the fossil turtles are good, and everything else ranges from bad (monkeys) to neutral (toads).

Gen II - Very strong lineup with Totodile (my favorite first form starter), Lanturn, Politoed, and Slowking. I wouldn't call any of these bad, either.

Gen IX - Could be higher with a better starter; actually, I like Quaxly a lot but Quaquaval is terrible. Palafin, Veluza, Dondozo, Wiglett line, and Iron Bundle are all fantastic.

Gen I - There's a lot of good here: Squirtle, Poliwhirl, Slowbro, Seadra, Starmie, Cloyster, Lapras, Vaporeon, Gyarados, and Kabutops are all good to great. There's also a lot of bloat, though. Dewgong, Seaking, Kingler, and Tentacruel I could live without. Still, the sheer volume of good Pokemon make it hard to leave Gen 1 out of the top two

Gen III - Spheal and Sharpedo are my top two water types, so I was always leaning Gen III, but Ludicolo, Corphish, Wailmer, and Whiscash are all amazing as well. I wouldn't be surprised if over half of my top 10 Water types came from this generation. I also like Pelipper a lot, even if it can be really annoying to fight, and Kyogre is one of the better legendaries. The starter isn't great (Mudkip is good though) and the Clamperl evolutions suck but not enough to drop this from the top spot imo
