Kyurem is pretty cool. Why did they have to give it those shitty forms? I don't usually throw around the term overdesigned, but holy shit.

I was really disappointed that they didn't make the original dragon as a form or something. I really wanted to see what it looked like.

Gen V is my favourite gen and I feel the same way, I fucking hate those things. Why couldn't they just be a normal main legendary trio, why did they have to go into fusions. Its just so unnecessary.

The Kyurem forms are fusions of 2 pokes so they have a good reason to be overdesigned. Gen 4 was just pure shit, they overdesigned almost everything

White/Black Kyurem are well designed considering their origin

Those formes are abominations, it's Kyurem attempt to make himself whole again but ending up with half odf what he used to be strapped to his own rotting corpse.

That said if GF went out of their way to give Mewtwo a new form, I sure hope the Original Dragon happens

Infernape if based on the legend of Sun Wukong hence the golden swirls. He is also loosely based on a Mandril, thus the colorful face

About Garchomp the only thng I find overdesigned is the random yellow patch on it's stomach, but since I don't complain about Sceptile's random red stripe near his crotch I don't complain abotu Chomp either

A real life crocodile has scales and those plates are supposed to represent the scales. The stripe is to represent the fact that a croc's belly is lighter than the rest of its skin.

Ugh. I forgot to type in the rest. Glaciate is nothing more than a slightly stronger Icy Wind. What's more is that it is, to date, the weakest signature move of any Legendary.

Now people knock Ice Burn and Freeze Bolt because you have to charge them up first but, hey, their base power is still nothing to sneeze at.

It does not mean 'visually busy' or 'visually cluttered'

Something that is over-designed can be very visually simple, for instance, designers sometimes accuse the white version apple logo of being over-designed
