Not "Which one is the most disliked?" but "Which has the smallest fanbase?"

I'd have to say it's Kris in my opinion. I make AMVs, so I look up fanart often. Kris is almost never present anymore. Her new design Lyra has replaced her in the fandom. People uproared over her "replacement" but other then that..

Even Leaf is more well loved then her, by a long shot.

Leaf used to thought of as Blue by most of the fanbase, Japanese or western, until a few months ago. She is becoming more well known in the fandom and people are starting to refer to her by her name.

Kris is usually just seen through her Pokespe counterpart though, or Marina.

Definitely Lucas. I've seen Kris stuff more than his. I guess I might be a little biased since I love her and hate him though.
 
Brendan doesn't seem to get very much love at all :p the anime just plain forgot him and gen. 3 is one of the most hated generations
 
Main Series only? In not, Lucy from Link (or Trozei, outside of Europe).

Main Series? I'd have to say Brendan. I see Leaf get attention because she's considered attractive.
 
Lucas or Kris. You just don't see too many people talking about them.

Huh?

Since when. I've seen tons of Lucas fanart, fanfiction, etc.

He's apart of the Sinnoh trio. He gets lots of love.

Brendan too.
 
I'd say Brendan and Kris (which is pretty disappointing, Kris is my favourite girl but there's not much love for her).
 
Brendan and Leaf. Honestly...Leaf has nothing. And there's almost no clubs for her. Everyone appears to forget the Kris ppl who didn't like Lyra..

(I LOVE PAIRING THEM TOGETHER TOO)
 
I dunno... I've not been long enough in the fandom, but probably Lucas?
 
Brendan followed by Lucas. Lucas is my favorite protagonist though.
 
Lyra/Kris, because the fanbase doesn't see her as just one character, has split her fans in half and each half has a smaller fan following than all the other protagonists (to this day though, I still believe they're the same character)
 
Leaf. Honestly...Leaf has nothing. And there's almost no clubs for her.

I've seen a few dozen AMVs for her, she has a few fanfiction, and I have..Sheesh..I've seen a few hundred fanart with her in it, I kid you not. It's easy to find stuff on her, especially on Pixiv. She has a club on Deviantart too, but it's new.

and Dawn.

..What?

I don't get people who say Brendan and Lucas are unloved. I see a lot on them.
