>>45132783Thematically Samurott being a strong, powerful, armored samurai does work thematically, no one is arguing that the theme of Samurott is bad. The problem is the execution of said theme visually. Samurott is a bit weird looking, strong and powerful yes, on all fours, but not when standing or using its sword. Golisopod and Bisharp visually fit better as intimidating strong samurai pokemon, not so much for Samurott. It could have worked if they stuck to making them bipedal like its prior evolution.
