>>48124200i think all the real early bugs have some trait that makes them not perfect, i remember some one mentioning that masuda or somebody said that all pokemon purposely have some sort of flaw in an interview to give it that SOVL and charm.
>buterfree has normal arms and legs, looks more like some fantasy fairy animal than an actual butterfly>beedrill dyel skinny legs>ledyba: the most derived bugmon (maybe second only to the burmy line) looking nothing like a ladybug> ariados: only has 3 pairs of legs, one of which are on its back. The lack of legs makes it feel different to a normal spider in picrel>beautifly: stub arms, huge pingpong ball head that with the antennae look like an onion. The main "flaw" is the antennae>dustox: the compound eyes and mouth make a freaky face, still charming that you wouldn't notice as a kid in the anime but enough to make you go "huh neat" once you get a good look at it>burmy(the one prevo): the swirly thing on its head is actually a stretchy spring thing and looks really silly, and the mouth is derpy lol>mothim: wierd ass wing shape, freaky mandible mouth thats actually burmy's mouth sideways>wormadam: this design just reaks of sovl its unreal how based it is>leavanny: the mouth and head dress collar thing>scolipede: this is really nit picky but the antennae horns bending like that is a really interesting design choice>vivilon: tinyhands lol, also pixelated dustox eyes and expression give off the same feel as the fairy gym leader where the vibe is kind of wierd>vikavolt: the elytras are attached to the body by a thread>orbeetle: clearly works out at the library, its head is so fucking huge its body is just a tiny humanoid figure attached to a giant domenone of these things are necessarily bad, in terms of flaws they're more like freckles really in that they're not really flaws but just quirks. Alot of fakemon give off shillmon vibes where they're trying to hard to make it cool you know?
