Reversal! You may have seen the other topic which asks a similar question, but now we're turning it on its head.
My favourite type is Ground. Drab, dowdy, naturalistic colour palettes, lots of animalistic designs, rugged, bulky, hulking aesthetics - yeah, gimme some of that. They tend to be in-game troopers, with powerful STAB moves, access to Rock-type coverage and chunky defenses, with little of this fast-and-fragile nonsense. Ground-type trainers also tend to be some of the most level-headed in the series, and it's a trait I value highly.
My least favourite Ground-type Pokémon is Diggersby. I can't stand his clown feet that make him look as though he's about to topple over at any time, and I also dislike the JCB shtick. I have a lot of time for species inspired by relatively simple technology - Magnemite, Klink, even the Rolycoly line is just on the right side of low-tech for me, but a digger is a specific piece of advanced modern technology and Diggersby's design tries to replicate it overtly, rather than nodding to a broader technological concept.
