>>44225844Not one for Gen 5=Gen 1 parallels especially since most are used in a negative light, but I like this one. Rhydon was the first Gen 1 Pokemon ever designed, and it's an ambiguous reptilian monster with a unique protrusion on its face, which is a literal drill.
Haxorus was confirmed to be the first Gen 5 Pokemon designed, and it's an ambiguous reptilian monster with a unique protrusion on its face, that being axe blades.
