>>27314742Where do you get that? Gen 1 is my favorite and he's one of my favorite pokemon. Also of all the pokemon to say has no concept behind it, magneton does. He's three of his previous evolutions emitting such a strong magnetism that they are permanently stuck together.
>>27314775See what I said above. It's evolution to magneton makes SO much more sense than most pokemon evolutions in that it's actually explained why it evolves, what causes it, etc. That's why I always liked it, because if these pokemon were magnetic they would stick together. Also I always thought the idea was cool of an electric type that was essentially a best becuase of electrical interference. They are sunspots the pokemon, their dex entries even reference this.
I never said I don't understand Mimikyu's popularity, I just disagreed with your example. I honestly think the Grimer and Muk evolutions are a much better example of bad object designed pokemon and a bad evolution from gen 1. He just gets bigger and loses a hand and the extent of it's design and origin is "It's pollution".
