>>26712304>>26712114I know it's way later and I'm not involved with this argument at all, but you're a fucking retard if you think "Two tapir-like pokemon who are both based on putting people to sleep and eating their dreams" is exactly the same as "Five pokemon based on the same general species", you're a fucking retard. Maybe if Munna and Drowzee were both vermin, and they both just happened to be psychic types, it could be comparable, but they have the exact same concept. Sure, their designs are pretty different, and the frogs all have some design similarities (IE they're all blue, for some reason, and they're all bipedal), but that's not what we're talking about.
>>26711846Gen 5 contained many pokemon that were intentionally based on Gen 1 pokemon, because they did that whole thing where you can only find gen 5 pokemon in B/W until the endgame. Granted, it was a stupid idea, but some "redesigns" of gen 5 pokemon ended up looking a lot better than the pokemon they were based on. Munna, however, is not one of those pokemon.
