why do capmons always have big beefy hp stats

Easier to minmax the base stats. You only have to increase HP instead of both defenses.

They're designed to fulfill metagame niches and nothing more, having large HP more often than not helps whatever the CAPmon is trying to do. The design is just putting a face or mascot on everything else. That's part of the reason why, as pokemon, they seem really wonky and MarySue-ish.

Why would you decide a Pokémon's stats BEFORE designing the Pokémon? Isn't that the complete wrong order?

It's really irrelevant which order you do it in so long as one reflects the other.

This one's really good, I think. The others are more shit than usual, for the most part. Yilx's mega is too overdesigned but I like the base form this time. Else, the decision should be pretty easy.

As long as the sprite ends up looking good, I'm fine with the waifu one.

None can top Necturna though. I wish shewas a real Pokemon.

Not at all, she's just cool as hell and well-designed for once.

Definitely a waifumon but there's nothing to fuck anyway. And by "real", I just mean having her in the game.

Not necessarily at all. I'm 90% sure that's how Gamefreak designs things like Mega Beedrill and Ferrothorn.

Hell, Mega Flygon probably already has stats if they said they basically would've had it in the game, but you know what part they're stuck on.

A lot of the designers seem to have trouble making megas.

This one and its mega are the most interesting to me even though the art isn't great.

If they'd stop using such obscure typings we'd at least get some propositions that are things. A poisonous rock based creature isn't much to go by.
