>>42938179>see pic related with its short stubby proportions.Even while actively perusing for a specific subset of frogs with shorter legs, if you straighten out those legs they're still remarkably longer than Politoed's. The reason why i shied away from including attributes from specific frogs is because you can bullshit your way out of a lot of arguments with sheer straw grasping, which is why i only enumerated the core frog attributes. Otherwise i could've even justified Greninja's head ornaments by saying that "certain species" of horned frogs also have head ornaments
>still don’t look like an actual frogs eyesI'm tired of this useless non-argument, so i'll retort with a counterpoint you that's more up your alley: Yes they do. Not only do they protrude just like actual frogs, the Froakie family is the only frog line that does the Slanted Iris.
>The limbs look nothing like a canine on Politoed. I can’t even see where that comparison is coming from.Come on, anon. Pic related look almost exactly like Meowth's hands.
>Greninja’s limbs don’t even look frog like nor is it’s body shapeI'm gonna do it again: Yes they do. If you've dissected frogs, you'd know this
>mannerisms frog friendly compared to its first form Froakie. You can even see this in how each stage animatesBecause it's a Frog Ninja. Froakie moves like a standard frog because it's an amateur thief. As it evolves, it's movement becomes more akin to ninjas. And even then, it's shown curling up like a frog at times both in the official ref sheets, manga and anime. But regardless, we're discussing his appearance here
>The core is very unfroglike considering it’s not roundedMost frog cores are not completely round, but rather trapezoidal and tapering towards the conjoining of the thighs. Greninja's frame is extremely similar, and though frogs DO have a pectoral region, i will concede that it's a bit too accented in him. I did mention he was *NEARLY" 1:1, not completely
