PARADOX RAIKOU??? [Pokemon Presents]

In my opinion Pokemon present was a bit disappointing, the design of paradox Raikou is... well.
I'm still excited about the DLC for Scarlet and Violet tho.
Game: Pokemon Scarlet and Violet DLC: The Teal Mask / The Indigo Disk. The hidden treasures of Area Zero

Love how the fanmade design for a paradox raikou got it spot on, besides the fact the official paradox raikou looks like a giraffe

[@mbyildirim03]

Bro i swear get that designer out of the company man how u get a saber tooth tiger into a fckng giraffe?

[@Jinxiao_]

They going into Dino mod😊

[@marccark]

yeah, Pokemon Robots and Dinosaur Edition :D

I don't understand fans of past paradox
A lot of them mocked future paradox for "not being different enough" and how past paradox are "good because they're different"
but here we have a raikou that is for sure different from the original
so shouldn't it be good by that logic?
Even if I overall prefer the future paradox, I have to say I quite like this Raikou, especially the official art showing the purple fur wrapping around its neck like a storm cloud.
Paradox suicune wasn't doing it for me because it lost the main appeal of the design: grace and elegance, but I think this one does a decent job at keeping the powerful and regal look raikou has

It all started with palkia origin form…

[@marccark]

origin form looks like they forgot to add some arms

[@jeffyplushadventures9803]

Maybe it’s a stegosaurus

[@marccark]

at first I just thought it´s a giraffe lol

[@WoolyToonz]

It’s a Brontosaurus, known as the “Thunder Lizard”

[@marccark]

@@WoolyToonz oh, that's expertise. Thanks! :D

[@charwillusher2377]

I think it's neck is long to reference lightning rods

[@heitormedina7098]

As Dante say: what the hell is this?!

[@marccark]

i struggled between this meme format or Dante, but dante was a bit to short :´)

[@97Ahuatzi99]

Are they even trying at this point or are they just throwing darts on a board with ideas and just going with the flow? Even the new legendaries look silly, they used to stick out and look like the title legendary but now you mean to tell me a mud slug and a gold fish are supposed to be so strong that they’re broken in pvp

[@Manowar458]

Looks like it’s from horizon zero dawn

[@DefinitelyNotAFerret]

Even Aloy is confused

[@heitormedina7098]

That true
