If you accept a henagon as a polygon, then obviously that is the exception, since they are all regular by definition.Comment

And from (for example) a topology point of view, all pentagons that do not intersect themselves are one and the same.
(Pentagons where each side intersects 2 other sides are different from that, but the same as each other. Do you know any other kinds of pentagon apart from those two?)
