I'm reading through all of Bogleech's Pokemon reviews and it's remarkable how much we agree on things (including Lucario being the worst Pokemon)

Edit: When was the last time a 1st or 2nd gen Pokemon received a new, non-Mega evolution?

Sylveon in Gen 6, but that's a special case because Eevee's gimmick is that it evolves into different Pokémon with different types.

Otherwise, you'd have to go back to Gen 4.

gen 4's Pokédex bring 50% evos and babies for older Pokémon is a big reason why that gen sucks

The Klink line is the real worst offender of gen V in that regard.



It needs ten more evolutions that eventually turn it into Golurk

As much derision as the Klink family receives, I do like how its animated both as a sprite and as a 3D model.

Oh my god gently caress HGSS to death. I just spent so goddamn long first EV training this Rotom-H up, then playing the stupid loving Voltorb Flip over and over because some genius whom I hope is dead now decided to stick the TM for Thunderbolt behind that piece of poo poo game...

and I go into the Battle Tower and he reverts back to Rotom-original form. gently caress me, gently caress this game, and gently caress all y'all who say it's your favourite.

This exact problem is why the Klink line is my #1 laziest worst Pokemon champion. Lazy design of "just add more heads on!" is nothing new and has precedent from G1 (Dodrio, Dugtrio, Magneton, etc). Copy-pasting the front sprite to make the back sprite and not loving bothering to check it's moving the right way and leaving it like that in the sequel is a new and unforseen level of lazy.

That too. They clearly just copy pasted it without realising that would, like, do what it does re gear position and rotation. It's lazy in new and depressing ways.
