I don’t dislike this one, and I can’t speak for Odyssey herself, but I can see a few reasons why while looking from the outside.

1. Pinkie’s treatment in this episode, especially in the last act, can be very hard to watch.
2. Some of the jokes didn’t land for everyone, such as Mr. Cake changing diapers with his mouth.
3. The final act itself. The twins’ abilities to fly and use magic at such a young age when neither Scoot nor Sweetie could at the time opened questions with its continuity. Secondly, after the twins’ antics got Pinkie crying, they looked at each other and dumped flour over their heads to cheer her up. For some, this implies that they knew that what they were doing could make her so upset. I don’t quite agree with that interpretation completely; you can argue that they saw Pinkie was hurt and came up with the flour by instinct of what she did before.

DQ has echoed my thoughts here. I just am not a big fan of babysitting episodes either, the jokes are predictably repetitive and I personally just can't relate to these sort of situations

Why is everyone hating on Baby Cakes?!

You made a post about least favourite episodes, you should expect that not everyone's going to like the things you do. Me hating it =/= everyone hates it

You get upset and react by quoting to others saying "why does so and so hate this episode I like?"

Season 2: ''Secret of my Excess'

Season 3: 'Spike at your Service'

Season 4: 'Somepony to Watch Over Me'

Season 5: 'Princess Spike'

Season 6: 'P.P.O.V' I found the most boring to be honest, but in 'The Cart Before the Ponies' the cheated hard in the writing of the plot. So hard to decide here. .. I think boring is worse than cheating so I go with 'P.P.O.V' here.

Season 7: 'Not Asking for Trouble'

Season 1: Boast Busters 

Season 2: Dragon Quest 

Season 3: One Bad Apple 

Season 4: Rainbow Falls 

Season 5: Princess Spike 

Season 6: Applejack's Day Off (There is like 5 minutes of actual plot here, no humor to speak of (outside of Rainbow Dash at the spa which was the only good thing here), and Applejack is an idiot. This feels like an episode of a generic toddlers show, not MLP. This is one of the most boring episodes of any show I have seen and it is my least favorite episode of the entire show for this reason.)

Season 7: Fame and Misfortune 

Season 8: Yakity-Sax

Season 9: Growing Up Is Hard To Do

[Malarkey 45]

S1: A Bird in the Hoof because it kind of grossed me out sometimes.
S2: Putting Your Hoof Down because it was painful seeing Fluttershy act so unlike herself.
S3: Apple Family Reunion, there's nothing really wrong with it but it's a bit awkward somehow, like Applejack thinking the fillies would enjoy an extremely difficult race.
S4: Twilight Time, the school foals act weird and I just enjoy the other episodes of this season more.
S5: Made in Manehatten because it's kind of slow and boring, there's nothing offending about it though.
S6: Applejack's "Day" Off because it is rather uninteresting and it's not nice to think that Applejack wasted her time doing things in a silly way for so long.
S7: Forever Filly, it's hard for me to watch that one because I actually like the same things I did when I was a little kid and it makes me feel self-conscious and dumb.
S8: Non-Complete Clause because it is boring and doesn't go anywhere.
 

I haven't rewatched S9 in while, so I can't accurately pick a least favorite, but I'll decide when I get to it.
