Vanillish, Swirlix and Slurpuff are unquestionably disgusting, but they are as nothing when compared with Alcremie.

All Pokémon made of food are wrong. (OK, technically, all animals are made of food if you’re persuaded to put the effort in, but I mean the ones that are literally constructed out of foodstuffs.) Alcremie doesn’t just appear to look like a pile of whipped cream with two strawberries stuck in, but seems to actually be that.
Evolving from the also gag-inducing Milcery (literally a splash of milk with empty eyes), it can take on all manner of forms (or, let’s face it, flavors) depending upon how the trainer is moving at the time of the evolution. This can lead to Vanilla Cream, Lemon Cream, and Caramel Swirl, along with six others. So…is it for eating? But it’s alive! But it’s made of food! In fact, the answer is, if it likes a trainer, it will produce parts of its body for that person to eat. This is all so wrong.
And as Sword and Shield informs us, “When Alcremie is content, the cream it secretes from its hands becomes sweeter and richer.”
I’m off to be sick now.
