I wasn't a fan of a lot of the Pokemon from the last few generations, but I liked some of the ones from Black and White. It just seemed like there were less weird looking designs.
Then you should like Cofagrigus and Chandelure. Seriously, the Chandelure line is one of the most fucked up ones in the entire series.
Yamask is the ancient ghost of a human who carries his death mask around, sometimes looking at it and weeping. If that's not fucked up then nothing is.
I don't care what the story of the Pokemon is. I care what it looks like.

Chandelure's pretty amazing looking, a demonized, floating chandelier with purple flames, and its pokedex straight up says it sucks out the living spirit of creatures and then burns said spirit for fuel.
However, he is a late game pokemon being the third evolution, so you'll have to stick around till you can get his first form, Litwick. You can find it at the Celestial Tower, around the mid game point.
I see someone else mentioned Nuzlocke'ing earlier in the thread, but I'm still curious since I have just been getting into it lately: what do people think of the Nuzlocke Challenge (or similar self-imposed rulesets for Pokemon)? Have you attempted one before? Are you doing one right now, perhaps with BW2?
How about the fanworks that get created around Nuzlockes? Anyone else read any of the fan comics that pop up on places like DeviantArt or the Nuzlocke forums? A lot of them kind of blur together after a while or suck hard, but I've definitely found a few that I like a lot, including but not limited to the original Pokemon: Hard Mode, A Petty Nuzlocke Challenge, and Robin's Cleverly Titled Nuzlocke (the last of which I really wish would update more often; I really dig the art style).
I'm looking to acquire between five and them copies of Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire. Aside from eBay any ideas where I might find them in quantity and on the cheap?
Just a heads-up, it might be harder/more expensive to find them with working internal clock batteries. That gen had an issue with them burning out a few years after launch. I know mine did.
Fire Red/Leaf Green is your best bet, really. If you need legit copies, see if you can find a non-Gamestop video game store in your area - the ones that aren't huge and corporate often have fairly big selections of used cartridge games.
All five copies are not legit. No Nintendo copyright notice on circuit board and weird loading message every time you load the save game.
I asked either for return and refund or I keep with refund of half the money I paid. I went with an American based seller thinking that if I bid on a Hong Kong auction they would be 100% fakes. This guy might just be buying from HK and reselling fakes in the US.

Cofagrigus is...a floating coffin. Since you like Spiritomb, the design may be more in line with your taste: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Cofagrigus
His first evolution is found pretty early on. You'll have to explore the Desert areas and enter some old ruins to find him.
These are acceptable Pokemons,
Spiritomb, Gengar, Dratini/Dragonari,Dragonite, Klink/Klang/Klinklang, Omanyte/Omastar, Butterfree, Combee, Rotom, Poliwag/Poliwhirl/Poliwrath, Corsola, Kabuto, Unown, Cryogonal, Mantyke, Magnemite.
I specifically didn't list evolutions that suck.

Goes to show, if PETA objects to it, it must be good!
Side note: Froakie looks cool as heck, and once again the water-starter is the obvious choice.
Amazon had some listed for HUNDREDS of DOLLARS!!!!
I may end up picking up a few copies of Platinum instead. Just do not want to spend a lot.
Funny, the news about Pokemon X/Y has brought new life to my Pokemon website...
