>>47229202It's an extremely shitty point. Almost every one of gen 5's homages to similar lines just come off as better designs than the originals they're based on, and it's especially true compared to Kanto mons.
Like, every time a pic comparing Unova to Kanto is posted and someone goes "LOL COPIED HOMEWORK HUH, WHAT A RIPOFF LOL", I just see that most of them are way better than the originals. I don't think every line is an improvement, but if you tell me to pick among either the original or a literal improvement of the original, I'm gonna pick the latter.
