We've seen many incarnations of classic summons like Ramuh, Shiva, Odin and Ifrit over the years. We've even had several threads discussing our favorite versions of them, but which ones were you're least favorite?

I never liked X's Bahamut. Half the time I didn't know what I was looking at.
Ifrit is consistently awesome, though
We talking just a particular summon or an incarnation of one?
Overall recurring, Siren. There's not a single game where I found myself using her, at least Carbuncle is useful in two instances. I think the ones in XII appear in Tactics? If so then almost all of those too because they couldn't take a hit from a small bird.
Incarnation of one. Mostly design-wise but gameplay specs count too if you want to.Quote:

Not a fan of FFVII Shiva as she reminds me of Madonna with that hair.
I'm not big on Shiva's IV or V designs.
Actually, a lot of the summons in those early ones aren't that great. IV-VI had a lot of hit & miss.
I don't mind her VII design. X was her best. I think that's her defining design.
I absolutely hated FFX's Bahamut. Its got rainbow wings and is real bright. I mean come on, every other design he was this sky "King of GF's" who was 2nd best at worst. They really messed him up and not only are many other Aeons in that game better then he is... he exhales rainbow bursts as a megaflare. WTF
EDIT: Although the worst is those summons who attack the party members too. Cyclops {cough,cough}
Historically Bahamut is my favourite summon, but I also didn't particularly like the FF10 interpretation. I like a sleeker dragon look rather than the random parts jutting out all over look.
Also on a side note I think that Bahamut from FF12 could stand to be a bit more dragoney.
I'm probably the only one that likes FFX Bahamut then xD I liked how bulky he looked and how he crosses his arms like a boss xD I hated AC Bahamut Sin though, he didn't even look like a dragon but a big ugly bird with gross people teeth.
I never liked the non fluffy incarnations of Ifrit either, VIII and X had the best ones to me. I didn't like VII's Ifrit who looked like an ugly goblin.
VIII and XIV have the best Carbuncles too, XIII's carbuncle was too fabulous for me :/
Agreed. Though I never made the goblin connection I don't think green is his color.Quote:

FF VIII Shiva- she looks like a horrid alien.
