>>43133198>But they ARE supposed to be mindless monsters.No they aren’t, many pieces of media show Pokemon being far smarter than “mindless monsters”. Just look at pic related for example, can’t imagine some “mindless monster” acting the way Feraligatr is, flicking this smaller mon, the way it’s acting is extremely humanized. Plus if I wanted “mindless monsters” I’d go play monster hunter.
>Before you could assume you had a shy Typhlosion, a bashful Blaziken, a hot headed TorterraYou can still do this with Greninja, Inteleon and Decidueye for example. The only thing about these Pokemon that’s set is their theme, their theme doesn’t dictate how they’re supposed to act as a whole but how they utilize their natural tools.
