Consider this;
Complain that pidove is another fucking pidgey.
Now we get pallet swapped pidgeys.
Instead of a different bird such as a toucan or kiwi or stork or heron etc.
Why couldn't they design an ice pokemon that WASN'T a furbait-for-vulpix-clone?
Why not design a land narwhal, an ice lizard, a salmon, or an ice frog? Or something completely unrelated to anything IRL?
