try garbodor. apparently a giant trash monster looking ugly is a surprise for people. maybe they were expecting a neopet trash monster or something.

I like some ugly Pokémon and dislike others. Pokémon like Heatran and Bruxfish are ugly in a cool way, but Garbodor has shit leaking out of its bag, that crosses the threshold.

It's an EFFECTIVE design if that was the point, but not a GOOD design. I find nothing to appreciate regarding Garbodor.

I don't think it's horrible, but it's not well made. It isn't ugly because it's based off of garbage, it's just not particularly aesthetic. Simple enough?

This isn't ugly because it's based on garbage, it's ugly because it's poorly drawn. It looks like a potato with skittles in it. Its face is just pasted on rather than having three-dimensional depth. Its shading is super simplistic.

An "ugly" Pokemon is fine when it's drawn well.

If the devs gave a Pokémon a realistic, gaping asshole and had it face backward in all of its artwork and battle stances, and when people got disgusted they said "it's deliberate!" would that suddenly make it a good design?

Is the toenail scene from Spongebob a good, enjoyable scene because the devs intended for it to be disgusting?

And it's a bad point to aim for. Would you argue Earthbound had a good western marketing campaign because it was trying to get people at the time to not purchase the game? It succeeded, Earthbound did not sell well, but was it a good campaign? Was it a good point to broadcast?

No one else us saying you have to like every design, but there's a difference between "bad design" and "design of don't like". If a pokémon is meant to be ugly because it's based on ugly things, then you can't call it a bad design for being ugly, because that's exactly what it's supposed to be.

The gross our humor isn't what pushed people away from EB, telling people "This game stinks" is another way of saying "This game is bad"

There is a BIG difference between "we tried to make this Pokemon look cool and appealing and failed miserably at it" (like Heatran imo) and "we designed this Pokemon to be ugly and/or repulsive because it's based on a repulsive thing (like a bag of trash)." Bruxish is a good example of the latter, though its colors are on a whole other level of awful.

Yes, if it's doing what it's supposed to do - which is to gross you out - then it's a good design.

If it's clearly a design NOT meant to gross you out, but does that is a poor design.

Likewise, if a design meant to gross you out doesn't it isn't a good design.
