Snorlax with Immunity - I know Snorlax can eat moudly food without getting sick and has incredibly strong stomach acids, but it's not exactly going to eat a Poison Fang or Sludge Bomb.

Hitmontop and Intimidate - Ooh! Cower in fear as I show you my 3rd Leg! :O

Delibird and Vital Spirit - Wha? Since when has it ever been said that Delibird doesn't go to sleep or is nocturnal? I can understand Mankey because of it's drive to win no matter if it's beaten or not, but Delibird?

Well, doesn't it have drive in the wild to save people?

Yeah...but not intense enough to give it Vital Spirit, is it?

As I said, Mankey will not give up until it has beaten it's opponent, now THAT'S Vital Spirit.

Ratticate with Run Away- I could understand Ratatta but Ratticate is just a fat mouse....dosen't look like it would be lightning fast.

Snubbull with Intimidate- AHHHH it's a 2 foot dog!!!!

Smeargle with Own Tempo- Smeargle always looks confused.....

Wobbuffet with Shadow Tag- Simply dosen't make sense.....

Metapod, Kakuna, Pupitar, Silcoon and Cascoon with shed skin. Cocons don't shed their skin, it just doesn't make sense. I know they probably put it in becuase it "sheds it's skin" when it evolves, but then as soon as the ability came into play it would evolve.

Actually, cocoon Pokemon aren't exactly like their real life counterparts, in which the innards contain a caterpillar slowly turning into a butterfly/moth, and the fact that they have a set of eyes is good indication that they're a different body on their own (on that note, aren't bee pupa kinda like that in real life?). According to one Pokedex entry, I think it states that Trancel's body is actually soft, but it hardens its skin over time. With a layer of shell around it, Shed Skin actually makes sense.

Amen to that. I remember shouting at my TV while playing Colosseum. How can the Legendary dogs be intimidated by a tiny little pink pooch.... wearing a frilly dress!?! o_O

Seadra w/ poison point: Seadra's not even a poison type Pokemon.

Whismur w/ soundproof: If Whismur has that ability then why doesn't it like loud sounds?

Regirock, Registeel, Beldum, Metang, & Metagross w/ clear body: Can you see through any of them?!

Yeah.....
 

Puffs

...NINE-THOUSAND!!!!
Is there any logical reason why Zangoose has Immunity...?

Mongooses and Cobras are natural enemies. Because of this, the mongoose has evolved a good immunity to cobra venom.

Seadra w/ poison point: Seadra's not even a poison type Pokemon.

Ever since the old Indigo days, the pokedex has stated that Seadra's spikes are venomous.
