END THIS FUCKING MEME!!!

They belong to the same fucking order or sub-order if you want to be generous. Thats about as closely related as a hyena, a lion and a meerkat. Would you defend that as an evolution line?

The second stage and third stage look barely related. The second stage has a slim beak and a larger crest than pikipek, then when it evolves it loses this crest and takes on a huuuuge bill. Fucking incongruous. Fucking gamefreak cunts.

We have mice that become rabbits and fish that become octopuses on the shittiest excuses ever and you decide to come at two birds known world wide for how they use their sharp beaks?

Forgot the fucking biology, from a design perspective the third stage just seems to ditch what the second stage builds upon the first.

>sharp beaks

Have you been bitten by a Toucan? Compared to a parrot that shit tickles. Toucans also don't drill holes into trees, they use their bills for reaching for food.

The game gave archeopteryx the ability to fly.
While that's only twice as bad as making velociraptor fly that's still incredibly bad.
But who gives a fuck, why do you give a fuck.

I don't rally care how effective the beak is and I didn't really say anything about that in the first place.
I said sharp, and its sharp.
A lot of sharp things don't cut things
I hate how pedantic this place is

I like the toucan design, but I really dislike it being the final-evo of a woodpecker. oh well

pokémon is full of things like that, we have a piranha evolving into a (half) shark, a line which is essentially a mix of dogs/wolves and hyenas and eevee's family, a mix of many types of mammalians, plus one of its evolutions looks part-fish

There's a lot of evolution lines that cross real life species.
>>29251123
No, but you'd be an idiot to expect that they're unhallowed or shouldn't do it.

So they're not the same. So what?

That really depends on taste. I love them but you already said you hated them so, you're really just throwing a fit because gamefreak didn't appeal to your personal expectations.

The difference is this is a three stage line where the first two stages look very similar and the second stage still has a slim beak and crest. Then when it evolves again, welp. Drop all that shit its a TOUCAN.

Sure, if they otherwise are designed to be related. You autists need to understand that these aren't 1:1 animal representations and there have been so many instances of a Pokemon mostly based on one animal evolving into a Pokemon mostly based on a different animal since literally gen 1 that I have no idea how this sort of thing can bother you on principle.

This. If Toucanvstill evoked pikipek in any way i wouldnt mind so much.

Btw im not saying that they cant evolve into each othet because not closely related enough, it wasvmore how people are throwing this up as a defense of the toucan when it still has such a DULL design. Remains to be seen what kt is like in motion but i cant see this thing still having skill link either.
