>>43986491God shut the fuck up, you're the one lying here. Solid anatomy? Its body is literally two fucking ovals a la Oshawott/Chespin. "Three spikes" isn't fucking decent detailing, it's "minimum effort". Literally no other earlygame bird got a design as simple as Noctowl. This isn't even going into Hoothoot territory, with his bodyhead and nipple wings.
>Furret is literally a fucking ferret, have you ever seen one in real life? Have you? Furret is 10 times more cartoony than Yungoos, which isn't even a fucking ferret but resembles one and is less cartoony than furret. Being its iconic trait doesn't mean that it's a good design trait.
>Why the fuck are you comparing a fuzzy Pokemon to a Pokemon of chitin? Legitimate retard.If you weren't legitimately retarded you'd have noticed that it was more about representing the look on the animal on the Pokemon rather than directly comparing the two. Ledian has nothing that makes it resemble a "realistic" bug type as much as Venomoth does to its original creature.
To finish, Aipom is one of the MOST cartoony and simple Pokemon of all time, and certainly the most in gen 2.
