I'd like Cinderace a lot if it weren't blatantly wearing clothes, or if the clothes looked more natural. Serperior has some fancy collar thing going on but at the very least it looks natural. I straight up cannot imagine Cinderace functioning in the wild or in a world where soccer did not already exist. It's the same issue with Incineroar and I hate it, I really want to like Cinderace but this is too big an issue.
When people say "oh the new Pokemon look like Digimon!" I write them off as an idiot, but since I've recently been playing Digimon, I can honestly day Cinderace would pass as a Digimon since Digimon aren't bound by the notion of being animals in the wild since they're man made programs (depending on the canon), so it makes sense for a Digimon to be wearing jeans and have guns for hands. It doesn't make sense for what we're told is a wild animal to be wearing soccer shorts and fake cleats.
