>>33109637>but that's a really stupid and superficial reason to change your mind on a designI don't exactly think Emboar is a bad design. I thought it was just okay, but if they were referencing Zhu Bajie, that makes me give it some extra brownie points.
And it just seems logical. The Fire/Fighting starter in Gen 4 was based on Sun Wukong, Emboar came right after and according to Sugimori, the Emboar line was designed "in a Chinese style".
