I am having a same reaction lookin at the galar meowth evolve. He so cute and all, but at 30~ lvl he turnes into the absolutely diff creature - "The myth, the leyend, the Perserker"
I don't really get how it jumped from ballet dancer to Carnival dancer, and as much as I didn't mind the design, the constant dancing forced me to remove it from the team. Too much movement.
I mean if you don't like pokemon getting bigger in general you'll probably hate everything I'll be honest. I really liked most of the designs in this game
Gholdengo may look goofy as hell, but getting those 999 Gimmighoul Coins is well worth the effort. In the string cheese man made of coins, you get a Pokemon with: -An excellent type combo, with almost perfect neutral coverage and plenty of resistances and immunities thanks to its Ghost/Steel typing, including resistance to Stealth Rock, immunity to Sandstorm and Toxic Spikes; -The move Make It Rain, a 120 BP, 100% accurate spread move that's basically a Steel-type Overheat but better in that it only drops its user's Special Attack by one stage rather than two; -Access to a great boosting move in Nasty Plot and reliable recovery in Recover; -Excellent 133 base Special Attack and decent defenses of 95 base Defense and 91 base Special Defense; -One of the most insane Abilities in the series in "Good as Gold", which renders Gholdengo immune to all status moves. Gholdengo CAN still be affected by moves with statuses as _secondary_ effects, but have it hold a Covert Cloak to make it immune to status ailments and debuffs from any move. He can still be Intimidated, but since it's a Special Attacker (60 Attack vs 133 Special Attack), it doesn't care. In singles, Gholdengo is the perfect anti-hazard-removal Pokemon. The combination of its typing and its Ability make it immune to the three most common moves that remove entry hazards - its Ghost typing blocks Rapid Spin, its Steel typing blocks Mortal Spin, and Good as Gold blocks Defog, which lowers evasiveness. The only moves that can remove hazards while Gholdengo is present are Tidy Up and Court Change, which are limited to a paltry few Pokemon.
When I looked upon the Golden string cheese whos fashion sense was restricted to a tool belt i thought i could bear it stoically, then he pulled out a fucking skateboard
The thing I hate about Gholdengo is that the idea of a golem made of stacked coins is really cool, and then they just... didn't bother to make it look like it's made of coins. Like, why smooth it out so much?
For as much as Meowscarada was clearly designed by committee to one day end up on a numbered website, I actually like Floragato. I think its cute, and by that I mean "Oh man, I'ma bout to pay for this munchin's time in the Elite Four" and not once again referencing a numbered website. XD I'd compare it to like Monferno or Dewott to me. A cute little gremlin.
For me, I'm most upset that they went the direction of a masquerade ball for Sprigatito's final evolution instead of bullfighting. We could have gotten MEOWTADOR!
@@legoferrari14 A good pun but I think that'd be more in line with a fighting/grass type than a dark one. All the starters of this gen seem to be based on some form of showmanship. Skeledirge is a singer, Quaquaval is a dancer, so what if the grass starter that seems to be based on tricks in its first 2 forms was based on a stage magician instead?
I find it hard to dislike Arboliva since it is the logical progression of the line. It starts as an un-ripe olive and grows into a whole olive tree at the end.
it might be a string cheese, but its so overpowered. pokemon gave this man A HUNDRED AND THIRTY-THREE SPECIAL ATTACK BUT ONLY AROUND 80 ATTACK FOR TINKATON
Exactly my reaction to Spheal’s evolution. They decided to make PERFECTION as the first stage, and gave it, well, THAT evo. If they were gonna make him evolve at all then the only acceptable evolution is just to make him bigger. From a chonky boi to a chonkier boi.
In any case the gen still had W designs such as the Arma and Ceru duo, Skeledirge, Great Tusk, Roaring Moon, Kingambit, and what not. I do agree on it being polarizing at times though.
@@mathieul4303 Gen 5 had its own style, and most of them were because of the art direction. Creative, just not what Pokémon was seen for at the time. I at least felt like they were deliberate. This gen…I didn’t feel like any of them were really solid on the direction. Like most of these were scrapped ideas from other gens.
The primal and future pokemon variations are a fantastic concept, but the recent legendaries and starters got me incredibly disappointed. Sword dog/ shield dog were incredibly lame and the new legendaries being bikes running on sandwich power was a bit of a let down. As for the starters, the fans making art speculating what the final evolutions could be based on leaks were way better designed than the actual results (except fuecoco, the only cool looking final evolution but the fanarts still had cooler ideas.)
This has been an ongoing problem since Gen1. Dragonair: OMG you're so beautiful and majestic, I'm happy to have you on the team! Dragonite: My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.
Goldengo looks alot like the cactus stuff from the Final Fantasy series (those things also have a golden variant) so i think thata what it was going for since its pre evolved is already a DnD mimic reference
The Meowscarada line is good minus the middle, and Fuecoco's is generally considered good but not outstanding. Gen 8 had 3 terrible starters though. Gay furry bait, Gay Scalie bait, And feels weirdly racist and uncannily human
I completely understand this. Pokémon has started to go in a strange direction for a long time now. They are bizarre, unnatural. You have your Pokémon and you're afraid it's going to evolve into some twisted shit.
When they were making Gholdengo, they took all the quality points out of the design and put it into the type pairing and stats. That's why it's so stronk and has a design that looks utterly lazy and moronic.
Okay, I always liked the weirdo Pokemon. I think string-cheese man is cool, in a weird way. But as an evolution? It did seem kinda odd. Also, the reason Pokemon keep evolving into furries and bipedal versions? I have some... theories on that. Theories which may or may not have to do with the *ahem* tastes some people have for Pokemon.
Or because it's called evolution and evolution tells us that bipedalism is an advantageous trait to have. Humans evolved to be bipeds before we evolved to have large brains. Without bipedalism, our brains would be wasted since we wouldn't be able to create and use the tools and technology that put us above other species.
I honestly wouldn't be so bothered by the anthro evolutions if they didn't make 2/3 starters anthro humanoids. It's just unimaginative. Every furry artist does this stuff, the internet is so inundated with these types of designs that they are very boring now. The anthro designs aren't "animal standing on two legs" either, like Blastoise or Charizard. They're all basically copies of Blaziken's design. Very conventional humanoid proportions type stuff, perfect for... well, you know.
If you're talking about how Arboliva is, it's about feeling scammed. You get cute thing, cuter thing... And then a really weird piece of Avant-Garde niche art that only some will find elegant, and zero will find cute
Honestly I haven't liked a gen of Pokemon in a while like this generation did for me. I feel there's consistently more I liked from this generation compared to prior few generations.
As long as we're saying what gen we think pokemon died after... I would say gen 5. It basically did everything the previous generations did while applying the last bits of polish you could want. If you look at each generation since 1, you'll notice that there was a change to the core mechanics each time, and those changes were ones that stuck to the future games and improved them too. Some major examples: Gen 2 added steel and dark (as a balance to the previously OP psychic.) Gen 3 added abilities and held items. Gen 4 made move types independent of damage types, which made previously useless pokes suddenly viable. (Previously the situation was that, for example, a high attack water type would be pretty useless because you need sp. attack for its entire movelist. Gen 5 just had all the improvements that had built up over the years while doing more minor polish here and there. Gen 6 is when things went completely off the rails. Every game since then has had some flagship feature that gets ignored by the time the next game rolls around. Mega evolutions? That's a gen 6 gimmick. Z-moves? Gen 7. Gigantiwhatever? That's 8. And now with 9 we have these terracrystal whatevers (IDK the name, I haven't played a pokemon game since gen 7) and those are going to be abandoned by 10, I can assure you. Literally the only thing of value from gen 6 onward that has actually stuck around is fairy type, which was added to balance the previously OP dragon type. I don't even care about what the pokemon look like anymore. There's a lot of bad ones, sure, but that's the least of the series' problems nowadays.
