>And a lot of people wish for Ballio & co. to be realNnnot really. While the designs certainly have gotten a bit of attention, most people are actually hesitant about these, going as far as calling them edgy, calling the panther "literally my mother's puma" and Ballio in particular, either unsettling or too creepy and that's where the It/Pennywise remarks started to appear. People are really quick to assume Ballio would stand at all time, when we're really not sure if he'd rather end up being more like Popplio, but occasionally standing either for punches or whatever the fuck. People also tend to nitpick regarding his expression too.
