This is inspired by Severus' odd experiences thread, and a helpful link he provided to some of the most disturbing pokemon. I aim to make a complete list of all the especially creepy and disturbing pokemon. Feel free to help out by giving your opinions on the most creepy or scary pokemon.

~Showcased Pokemon~ Current Showcase: Paras and Parasect During a little wandering on Bulbapedia, I stumbled on the Origin of Species articles that gives insight into inspiration for certain pokemon. The article on Paras and its evolution was more than a little disturbing, and definitely earning Paras and Parasect a spot on my creepy and eerie list. "Many Pokémon will take a real species' characteristics and exaggerate them in some way, but the Paras family seems to have taken the Cordyceps-insect relationship and made it even more sinister. Rather than simply killing its host, the fungus infecting the creature essentially becomes its host. I always feel a little odd when allowing a Paras to evolve into Parasect, since I'm basically allowing its brain to be hijacked by another organism, turning it into a blank-eyed zombie Pokémon. I don't think there's a single more disturbing Pokémon family than this one, and unless Generation V surprises us with a parasitoid wasp Pokémon, I don't think there ever will be." The full article on the origin of Paras and Parasect can be found here: Origin of Species

*She
But I read a similar story on those two a couple of days ago, and it's sort of really odd. I never noticed how void Parasect looked in his eyes before then, and I feel bad that he's pretty much being controlled and used up by a mushroom.
[Hey, I'm going to put this thread in mine along with Kyuala's, is that alright?]

go ahead, it's alright with me. And yeah, Parasect does look pretty zombie-like, when you think about it. I'm gonna do another showcase soon if I can find something good.

A cubone could be a baby kangaskhan o.o thats kinda odd lol but here is link http://www.infendo.com/pokemon-ramblings-could-cubone-really-be-a-baby-kangaskhan/
its not "creepy" just a tad bit odd
---
Banette is creepy. look at its pokedex entries "This Pokémon developed from an abandoned doll that amassed a grudge. It is seen in dark alleys. " -HearGold/SoulSolver
---
Drifloon's Pearl and HeartGold/SoulSilver pokedex entries are a little weird.. "It tugs on the hands of children to steal them away. However, it gets pulled around instead. " -Pearl
"It is whispered that any child who mistakes Drifloon for a balloon and holds on to it could wind up missing. " -HG/SS

Severus x James lord bartimus male lopunny, enough said It's..just a regular Lopunny, no? Lopunny has a feminine figure, and there are no physical differences between males and females. Basically, the male lopunny looks like a girl. literally.
