Yeah, there's a few. I like the entire Froakie evolution line, Sawk, and a few others. I just feel the designs are getting ceaper by the generation.

That's just your nostalgia. I know it sounds stupid, but it really is. Bad designs have been around since the very beginning of Pokémon, and usually the bigger a generation is, the more stupid designs it has (I guess gen 4 being the only exception to this).
A lot of people complain gen 6 was too small, but I actually love it, because you can tell almost every single one of the new 72 Pokémon were very unique and had a creative idea behind them - it's no longer like in some previous gens where they made some Pokémon just for filler.
I'm going to go all out on this one, through the whole roster of Kalos.
The starters - A knight, a rogue and a mage. Grass/Fighting, Fire/Psychic and Water/Dark. Awesome designs. GG, Game Freak.
Bunnelby line - ok, this one sucks.
Fletchling line - generic bird becomes a badass Fire type that's useful for a crapload of things and also viable competitively.
Scatterbug line - one might say it's the generic bug, but honestly I think Vivillon is pretty cool and the different patterns too.
Litleo line - it's a lion.
Flabébé line - the generic fairy type - it's only really new because fairy type wasn't a thing before. So yeah, meh.
Skiddo line - I might be alone on this, but I think Gogoat is super awesome and it's my favorite grass type ever.
Pancham line - A child panda that evolves when near dark types becomes a full grown, evil panda. Damn.
Furfrou - meh.
Espurr line - some pretty cool and somewhat creepy psychic cats.
Honedge line - stance change has to be one of the most awesome and unique things implemented in the game.
Spritzee line and Swirlix line - mehhhhhhhh.
Inkay line - IT EVOLVES BY HOLDING THE 3DS UPSIDE DOWN. And then the design is flipped and it gets contrary. Come on.
Binacle line - some ugly shit. Water/Rock. Kinda reminds me of Kabutops, but yeah, way worse. It's a bad design.
Skrelp line and Clauncher line - two awesome water types, really.
Helioptile line - just listen to this cry and tell me it's not memorable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXI3n0X78Ag
Tyrunt and Amaura line - two really awesome dinosaur Pokémon. Best fossils since gen 1.
Sylveon - one of my favorite eeveelutions.
Hawlucha - it's Hawlucha.
Dedenne and Carbink - meh.
Goomy line - our lord and savior Goomy.
Klefki - the mandatory blooper of the generation.
Phantump line and Pumpkaboo line - some great forest ghosts. The inspiration for these is actually pretty damn creepy.
Bergmite line - it's an ICEBERG pokémon. Do I need to say anything else?
Noibat line - pure awesome. It's a cave bat that also happens to be a dragon.
Xerneas, Yveltal and Zygarde - easily the best legendary trio in a very long time (since gen 3 I guess). They're all really awesome.
Diancie, Hoopa and Volcanion - three event pokémon, because we couldn't have a perfect generation.
So basically, what's there to dislike is Bunnelby, Diggersby, Binacle, Barbaracle, Klefki, Diancie, Hoopa and Volcanion.
Then there's like, 10 generic, forgettable Pokémon and EVERYTHING ELSE is pure gold. Yes, I love gen 6.
Also, Sawk is gen 5.
