>ScytherIt's a raptor-mantis with sword arms, what more do I have to say? Also ties into what I said about liking fast, multiple hit stuff, and liking blade/claw themed monsters
>Nidoking/DrapionSo I said that while ice isn't my favorite generic element in fiction, it's up there; but poison is my ACTUAL favorite element (not counting portal bullshit, which isn't really an "element") Nidoking was probably my favorite pokemon design as a kid alongside haunter, especially wiith it's ealy sugi artwork having it be super spiny and prickly. Just a big, generic spiny, horned, poisonous monster was and is cool to me, especiially as a kid super into dinosaurs and godzilla, he's basically just a fucking kaiju. Also, while he doesn't havee big claws, he does have rather large arms, and the mental image of him just swinging his arms around to hit shit or grappling with them or tail swiping is pretty cool.
Most of the above also applies to drapion: Scorpions are some of my favorite animals, and the mental image of him just using his longass arms and tail to grapple shit is so cool.
>SkarmoryIf you can't tell by now my tastes are pretty suited to "generically badass", and Skarmory just looks like a fucking mean, dangerous animal, which is great. Steel/metal as a type/element is something i'm intto just tas much as ice, and the idea that it can just run around like a prehistoric terror bird murdering shit or shooting it's feathers like throwing knives is great
>DragalgeBeyond being poison type, which is an added bonus, his design is just "alright". However, it's shiny, with it's bright lime green, blueish purple, and cyan is pretty much my favorite combination of colors, and as such the shiny form easily makes my top 10. Skrelp is also a fantastic design.
