This thing is so overrated on /vp/ I don't even know where to begin. First off, it's just a tortoise, and Blastoise and Torkoal already pulled that off first and far better. Not only that, but the fucker so slow it dies to a cool breeze before it can do anything. What a shitty and pathetic Pokémon. Anyone with half a brain knows Sceptile is the best Grass starter anyways.

While I find the intentions behind this post fishy, I fully agree.

World tortoises have been done many times before in other franchises as seen from East Asian folklore, and while I was glad one came to Pokemon, I find the execution to be really mediocre. The black beak looks bad, the asymmetric back is offputting, the parts of the body under the green parts look lazy (look at the top of each leg), and they missed the opportunity to make the tree(s) into a snakelike form.

Sceptile could've done with a different set of seeds than the unflattering yellow seed-like features lining its back, but everything else about it is terrific and it outshines the other Grass starters by a long shot.

its tail is way to thick for a bipedal creature as agile as it is, and it consistently has its arms in a retarded position

it's a massive downgrade from Grovyle and the worst Grass starter design wise because of that

I feel bad for not liking Torterra.

I love Sinnoh, Infernape and Empoleon, but Torterra is just ugly to me.

Why are you forcing this meme?
You aren't going to get nearly as many replies as when you spam threads about "Unovabortions".

Well, he's not wrong, Sceptile is the best. Torterra's good too, though, and I say that as someone who acknowledges that gen 4 was the worst by far.

Nah, the tail is a great touch because it adds momentum to its speed so it can hit hard, plus it highlights how strong its legs must be.

The arms in a retarded position bit I don't understand. They seem fine to me. Maybe you're offended by how skinny they are? In the official art (as opposed to the sprites), I don't see anything wrong.

Grovyle is nice and all but I don't like it more than Sceptile. The long head leaf looks silly and the lack of that kind of size in its tail section makes it look off-balance, especially if it needs to run.

As someone who started with Sinnoh, and considers it one of their favorite generations, I really don't like Lucario much. Honestly its whole shtick is auras but they just slap some spikes on it and call it a steel type instead of psychic. There was a lot of Kanto pandering in Kalos but I don't think people point out the Lucario pandering there was as well because they literally hand you a Lucario just like they hand you the Kanto Starters and Lapras.

Aura is just the Pokemon equivalent of ki, Lucario's powers are basically the same as the powers DBZ and Street Fighter characters have

Remove head spikes and make the back spikes more of a natural mountain formation looking thing then I'd like it better.

Though maybe it's supposed to look designed. Like some variation of a karesansui or something like that.

Are you implying these pokemon are good? They look pretty shit. Maybe Braixen is ok but it's far from top tier.
