>>31519481Here's the thing though: Fakemon designers aren't GameFreak. The official mons can have any excuse for how they look, be it unoriginal or boring or just plain weird, but since they're born from the source, they will be accepted. Fakemons does not have this luxury. You can make as many as you want (much like
>>31522737 ), but if the design seem uninspired, weird, or doesn't seem to fit in with other popular Pokemon, then the design will be pushed aside and forgotten, or used as a bad example by shitposters.
If you're not GameFreak, then put effort into the fakemon designs so that those who see it can go "yeah I'd use this". Otherwise you're just wasting your efforts.
