>>33230062Hoppip is a cute and interesting design.
Skiploom trashes it and decides "member genwun?". Turns into a green Gloom with a :3 face. It's still different enough, at least
Then Jumpluff doesn't even try and is literally flying Oddish. Like literally. What the actual fuck.
Fuck this line. And fuck gen 2 designs in general. Many of the evos barely feel connected. Completely forgettable designs like Girafarig, Stantler, Killfish, etc. The cross-gen evos completely miss the mark of their prevos. Crobat shares nothing in common with Golbat beyond being a bat. Hitmontop drops the entire motif of Chan and Lee. Slowking I can't properly judge because I always think of the movie where it could talk and was some island god and made no fucking sense. Politoed is so far removed from the rest of the line it's baffling how anyone approved it. Only Steelix and Kingra are okay. Scizor I can at least appreciate the concept of Scyther + Metal Coat = Metal Scyther. But then they fucked the design by making it pink because gen 2 had a retarded obsession with changing an evo's color to something random for no reason. Probably because they wanted to show off the GBC.
