Sitting here watching while making that gardevoir fellate a dildo I made on the fly. Having ripped the models from pokemon before; There was work done on that model because they came out like this. Sup indeed has 5 bones after the root, the neck bone is just long for some weird fucking reason.
That being said I'm not going to trust a modern animation because they're knuckle draggers playing with action figures.
Going off my own experience when this garbage first lit up, a group of us decided to make wolves and we all ended up with similar topology but there were differences. Ultimately, we all surmised they were trying to emulate the style and they ended up with something that emulates the style like this guy came to
