>>52094391I don't care if a Pokémon is literally my mom's pet hamster, an ambiguous kaiju, a lizard that's simultaneously frozen and on fire, a pair of sneakers, or a bipedal jungle creature that works a 9 to 5 at the nearby donut factory. All I care about is that the designs of those things look good and synthesise whatever disparate concepts that make them up in an aesthetically pleasing manner, which is something that Game Freak largely seems to have forgotten how to do in recent years.
