>>32085689I'm sorry a fantasy creature doesn't exactly match up with its real world counterpart. Is this your first pokemon game? They usually aren't a 1:1 with their inspirations. I like salazzle because she's a cool monitor lizard. I get the hate because people hate waifus. Usually I'm in the same boat, but I adore salandit and salazzle is a fine successor. If you wouldn't sperg out over a lizard tripoding and shut down a design without really understanding it, you might enjoy this franchise more.
