    What are your least favorite Neopet species and why?

    Kiko Day inspired me to create a thread for species bashing rather than continue to unload all my Kiko hate in their birthday thread.
    Tell me which pets don't sit right with you and why. Feel free to even narrow it down to a specific color on a pet.

    For me waaaay up at the top of my list are obviously, Kiko. They are horrible little orbs and their anatomy is a nightmare and an abomination.

    Pre conversion they were at least tolerable but this current version is hell. If you zoom in on their transparent art they are literally a skull with a rib cage just haphazardly stuck to the back of it and arms that attach to that same skull. They are near impossible to customize and are just orb-with-limbs but not even the only or best orb-with-limbs Neopet. Jubjub beat them at their own game every single time. Their only redeeming color is Maraquan and that's because they're not the focus of it, the shell is.
    Also there was an Advent Calender video at some point that explained why Kiko have a bandaid and it is cannon that it's because they popped a big nasty zit under it. 🤮

    Baby Ogrin are kinda cute but the rest... no thank. Though I believe they were specifically created to be ugly so honestly genuinely well done in that case.

    I hate chias. Little eggplant looking fucks. Some of the fruit ones are alright but to me all the basic body type ones are like the visual equivalent of listening to someone chew on their fingernails. I hate that JN uses Thyassa the chia as the default pet when you go to the Petpetpet matching tool. UGH CHIAS I HATE EM

    Omg yes! They're horrible! They're just phalic enough to be uncomfy and they're another one that customization and god forgot. If they were deleted I would not care.

    Honestly, any pet where the fist is even more unnatural looking than 'animal having a hand somehow' is on my nono list.

    But also quiggles. We could have had a cute frog and instead we're stuck with an absolute monstrosity whose only purpose is being overused meme fodder.

    (No hate if you love 'em I promise, they're just not for me <3)

    I actually like them BUT totally understand not liking them I think I'm just desperate for a cute frog and Nimmo is so much worse in my books.

    I honestly like them but they are part of a long list of pets who's anatomy upsets me. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THEIR MOUTH??? WHY ARE THEIR TEETH LIKE THAT????? Also the ear spine????

    Blumaroos are my most hated. Which is a shame because before customization became a thing they were actually somewhat cute. Their unique posing by standing on their tails, and the little heart-shaped pads on their feet were visible which upped their appeal a lot. They had a lot of cute colors then too.

    Nowadays though they just feel... boring. All personality has been sucked out of them in their current pose, no heart feet, no tail stand, fist of doom, it's just all too much at once. Way to kill probably one of the more iconic Neopet species' designs.
