No problem, always nice to meet another Poke'mon fan, especially in this day and age.

I like Poke'mon no matter what people say about it, I like to focus on the things that have been improved. For example, the graphics, music, and overall feel of the battle scene is top-notch!
So they have a few odd looking Poke'mon, we've had some pretty messed up stuff since Gen 1, we're just USED to it's weirdness by now.

I mean, a walking palm tree, no arms, and three separate heads that are individually sentient, yet still considered normal fruits that fall off and become eggs? What the HECK?!?

I totally agree! I will always love Pokemon even if people think that the newer generation Pokemon looks weird and crappy. I know exactly how you feel about it.

Yeah, the weird stuff has always been around, it's just now they also LOOK odd, nobody THINKS about the Poke'mon and how they work. True I have a great imagination, but that's a good thing. (And I just chose Exeggutor at random, I'm actually a huge fan of Grass and Bug types)

I took a look at some of the happenings in my life, and my love shows.
According to a personality test, I'm a Bayleef. My first Poke'mon card was a Bellsprout and it's still in near-mint condition, I always have a Grass and/or Bug type in my party (usually Scyther, the badass).
Yeah, no matter what they do, they'll NEVER ruin or . Long live the dwellers of the deep forests of never-ending mysteries!
One of my favourite non-Grass or Bug types is Sneasel.

Definitely! But Scizor is pitiful! If you train Scyther in it's naturally best stats, if you evolve it, it's crap! For one it become DOUBLY weak to one of the few types it was ALREADY weak to, it's speed stat becomes a JOKE, and it doesn't learn any good moves. It's the one Bug type I have NO tolerance for. And I'm glad that it's the result of human testing, because nature would never do something so cruel to one of it's finest creations. I actually find it sick when people on Wi-Fi say they'll help me 'evolve' my Scyther. Evolving usually involves IMPROVEMENT.

That was the second evolution I found pointless and stupid. The first? Well... I'm not one much to slam too harshly on the cute ones, but... FUDGE TOGETIC! I mean WHY!? For one, it's stats don't get much better, andit doesn't learn any moves Togepi can't and it learns them at a LATER level! And on top of that, weakness. Let's list Togepi's weaknesses: Fighting. That's great, only one type! Then it grows wings... let's list Togetic's weaknesses: Rock, Electric, Ice. Although Fighting does normal damage now, it's number of weaknesses has tripled, TRIPLED!! The only thing that saves it is that it evolves into Togekiss which DOES get better stats, so don't evolve Togepi until you can immediately turn it into Togekiss, or you're just setting it up for pain. Lots of pain.

Dragonair has a similar issue! While it DOES get impressive stat boosts, the one type it's weak against (ice) now has a DOUBLE advantage and instead of less damage, Electricity does NORMAL damage. That's two advantages down the drain. And then we have Rock types again. And Dragonair can learn anything Dragonite can EARLIER.

And they say Gen V Poke'mon weren't planned well.
