I like how your description of overdesigned is literally how I'd detail Mega Garchomp to someone who's never played pokemon.

Mega Garchomp is cool as gently caress, and best described as "it's an EVA. There, done."

But that keyring creature is a sign that someone lost his job as character designer, I hope.

Klefki is a beast. :colbert: That discussion probably isn't for this thread, though.

Also, is it basically confirmed that the next game is G/S/C?

How can people complain about Garbardor when Muk exists. Now if people want to talk about terrible lazy design from gen 5 there always the monkeys. Yes those are 3 separate evolutionary families not a branching one like eevee.


edit: Also Mega Absol totally looks like they hired someone from deviant art to design it.

Also those goddamn elemental monkey were everywhere, every single trainer and their grandmother had one early game. They were basically giving those things away, "oh hey your taking on the first gym, here have a complementary monkey". It didn't help that there were like 12 different wild Pokemon total before the second gym in B/W, 3 of which were the goddamn monkeys. They don't even have the dignity to evolve on there own you have to waist a stone the the stupid things.


edit: I need to post a non terrible pokemon to get the taste of those stupid monkeys out of my mouth. So have a Magnezone, now that's how you make a good magnemite evolution, non of this 3 stuck together crap gen 1 pulled.

They used it in the first gym where the trainer and monkey you would face would be the one strong against your starter. Cool idea, keep you on your toes.

Except they give you the monkey that's strong against that right before.

YAAAAAAAY!
My avatar was supposed to be a Meowth, but another goon had Meowth reserved and then never went through with it so I don't have a Meowth avatar and this is a gross injustice.

Edit: Oh my god I've had this avatar for probably 6 years now and only just now realized he's supposed to be sitting in a tree, and not sitting on a dirt crossroad in a wheat field or something. I am sorry Chorocojo. I am an idiot.


vvvvvv But if it evolved into "Ducktrio" and was just three ducks that would be awesome as hell. vvvvvvv

A generic fish with forgettable stats and, despite being a butterfly fish, isn't Water/Bug.

You messed up with Surskit once, Gamefreak. Then you messed up with Lumineon. Please, just this once give us a quality Bug/Water.

Magnezone loving rules. I like how they sorta made sense out of the "3 Magnemites Stuck Together" thing and had them fuse into one ultra Magnemite.

You know who I like? Ambipom. They took the most forgettable Pokemon and made him into this two-tailed doofus.

Magcargo was at least original. There were no snails and gen 3 was hurting pretty badly for fire-types.

The worst crime committed by Game Freak is that Farfetch'd doesn't have an evolution.
