>>19603625>It's not just the stripes, it's the fact that they just seem slapped onto the design in lucarios case>Lucario's look like an egdy teen photoshopped them on it. Well, it sort of fits its general fanbase, taste-wise.
Plus, Lucario is already dripping with all sorts of excessive colour borders and shapes - thus it would be very hard to elaborate on its design without changing it significantly, especially when the only call for a design change regarded Lucario's 'shorts'.
Fuck, I admit that Mega Lucario makes me worried about how possible Mega Gallade might look like - both pokemon are billing for similar vibes and have similar proportions, while their fandoms for the most part have similar degree of easily impressionable kids among their ranks.
M-cario looks like ass, but I'll need to learn to like it to avoid future butthurt.
