>>33280738>>33280863I feel like that was a general trend with Gen 7 designs--"character-heavy" Pokemon that don't quite make sense as a whole species:
>Mimikyu>starters with highly specific personalities, especially Dartrix and Incineroar>Bewear's lore>all Dhelmise manage to find the exact same ship parts>UBs really feel like they were initially designed as singular legendaries>even the box legendaries are revealed to just be an interdimensional 3-stage split familyMaybe a response to YW? GF wouldn't have known that YW hype would die down by the time SM came out. Not even complaining, I honestly love all the ones I listed except Bewear, Cosmog, and Solgaleo. And like
>>33280894 said, that kind of Pokemon has been around from the beginning. Gen 3 is the only time we've really been devoid of it.
