Most unique
I love all these pokémon because they are so inspired. I love when the pokémon designs borrow from mythology, legends, folklore. I didn't think much of Goodra but reading about its origins made me respect it. Xerneas is, amongst many things, inspired in Norse mythology, which I love. Aegislash is based on King Arthur's sword and haunted weapons and many other things and I really like it. Volcanion is a cool design, for the longest time I wondered how would a Fire/Water type turn out. Too bad they used the typing on a mythical. Hawlucha is rather creative I might say, since they didn't make it humanoid like other fighting types. Plus it speaks to me personally due to my Mexican heritage.
Most forgettable
These aren't even bad. They're just... there. Furfrou has a fun gimmick but that's all it has going for it. Gogoat is alright, I just seem to forget about it all the time. Carbink is... ok? I mean Diancie exists so Carbink becomes uninteresing as a result. The ice types are plain-looking and they are alright but IDK. There are much better designs in Gen 6.
