Gotta be Avalugg, it's a living room table made of Ice. Doesn't help that's it's supposed to be a defensive pokemon and it's pure ice type with bad special defense.

On paper Avalugg sounds like a menacing mon. The reality was... disappointing. 🤣
Lickitung, I doubt I have to explain why
Oh gods, no. That thing is...
Evolving it doesn't make it any better, either.
There are several starter designs past Gen III that I never really cared for. In Gen 4 I tend to just dump my starter.
I've started to dislike Zacian. It basically ruined the Pokemon Unite moba game, which was for a brief period actually sorta balanced and not-pay-to-win (except occasionally an overpowered mon for like, two days before it got patched). Zacian ruined all of that. Even after it became available to freebie players, it stayed horribly broken. Admittedly it can be very satisfying to gang up and murder Zacian, but if it gets any kind of lead it will just absolutely delete your team. Likewise I don't like the eevee-evolutions as much as I used to as the developers over-favor them and kinda spammed them. My understanding is that she (Zacian) is broken in whatever meta she enters, so this isn't unique to Pokemon Unite which is tbh a shit game that could be fun if the devs weren't jerks.
On the plus side, the game did make me like Greedent, Zeroara, Eldegloss, Cramorant, and appreciate Mr. Mime who has a really interesting play-style and has saved my ass a few times. Thank you Mr. Mike.
I don't really like most megas. I will ditto hating rotom.
I don't like Dunsparce; not because its design is inherently bad or anything
I just hate its design in a completely arbitrary way; so many interesting colors and the actual mon is just a Normal type tsuchinoko...
you know what, maybe I don't like Dunsparce because I've never used it before
Rotom. Ultra Moon made me hate that guy like no other Pokémon. Seriously, how did GF manage to make the Pokédex so annoying?
Oh god I couldn't even get through Ultra Sun because of rotom staring at me and being so annoying. Completely turned me off the game.
Garganacl. Its design is mid imo and salt cure + purifying salt is a bane upon humanity. When i see it on the opposing team on showdown i know im about to have a great game...
Toxapex has been haunting me ever since gen 7 with scald regenerator toxic recover etc.. and its design is disgusting, at least garganacl is fun to play.
M-Scizor gets a honorable mention for being the only mega i dislike, it brings nothing to the mon, same typing, ability, its just stat boosts and its boring as hell
