I actually don't mind reasonable legendary Pokemon like the legendary birds, beasts, regis and (to a lesser extent) the psychic trio.
So, why the distaste for legendary Pokemon as a whole?

Ah yes, i dont mind like the birds and dogs (the lesser legends) But i mind when people use "The Gods" types. like Arceus, but i havent ever fought a celibi before or a mew at 100.

Celebi is easily a lesser legendary with it having weaknesses to seven different types, and it's really not as godly as one might think. Especially since how common the move Pursuit is nowadays. It's just rare to see a legit one in the US as there hasn't been an event for it since Pokemon's 10th Anniversary Across America thing that Nintendo did way back in days of Emerald.
So your hate is going to be against Uber-tier Pokemon then, I presume?

I just hate fighting Ubers when I don't have my own Ubers fighting too. Ho-Oh should be UU because of SR though.

Kunx the Mighty I just hate fighting Ubers when I don't have my own Ubers fighting too. Ho-Oh should be UU because of SR though. Most people who try and sneak Uber Pokemon into standard online battles usually lack the ability to EV train. I know I personally have crushed my share of Rayquazas and Groudons with my Weavile.

Kyrenx Kunx the Mighty I just hate fighting Ubers when I don't have my own Ubers fighting too. Ho-Oh should be UU because of SR though. Most people who try and sneak Uber Pokemon into standard online battles usually lack the ability to EV train. I know I personally have crushed my share of Rayquazas and Groudons with my Weavile. I soft reseted for my Lugia, Mewtwo and Suicune, I'm happy that my Luiga came out with a decent nature. I just need to figure out how to ev train in HG/SS, because in D/P/Pt I knew where everything was and how to fight Golbats perfectly.

I like to collect the legends but only for that purpose. And to respond to Kyrenx on the Ubers, when they are EV trained they really are too powerful. My Garchomp took a Ice beam form a Swampert (had quick claw) and lived with 32 hp. Took out the Swampert in one hit...i haven't used that one since.

I love it when people use Ubers against my standard team in moderation. If it's 1 or 2 Ubers I usually destroy them especially the dragons. The only times I lost to Garchomp are during the Wifi battles in the Battle Frontier. If it's 3-4 that's when things get a bit messy.

I can't seem to connect to wi-fi, which we have because my wii is connected.
So other than playing my younger brother in the same house, i've never had a battle with a human opponent.
But I myself hate messing with legends. After I beat the Elite Four for the first time, I start to only use my favorites, which are mostly fire poke'mon like Arcanine.

My Garchomp took a Ice beam form a Swampert (had quick claw) and lived with 32 hp. Took out the Swampert in one hit...i haven't used that one since. Are you seriously comparing a Swampert with max 295 Special Attack to a Weavile with max 372 Attack? Even with Yache Berries, Garchomps fall to my Weavile's feet, especially after I setup up Swords Dance (making it 744 attack) with Focus Sash to buffer against any possible counter attacks Gar-chump may or may not have, which will no doubtably will be Stone Edge or Fire Fang, both of which are highly inaccurate.
I agree Ubers are powerful and I agree Garchomp deserves to be in the Uber tier (due to Sand Veil + YacheChomp set), I just don't shy away from people who break the rules. It's even more gratifying to crush someone who clearly had the advantage.

Only reason I don't like them is when people say "But ____ Isn't an Uber, so I'm using it in OU" Even though it's a clear Uber like Dialga etc

A Simple Suicide Only reason I don't like them is when people say "But ____ Isn't an Uber, so I'm using it in OU" Even though it's a clear Uber like Dialga etc Haha, yeah... there is no arguing such popular Pokemon as Mewtwo, Rayquaza, Darkrai or Dialga out of the Uber tier. xd
