Wish we knew every designer's creation in the PokeDex. It seems like we have a definitive name to put next to a mere handful of Pokemon.

Also, I understand how he is feeling when your creation makes live. It's awesome. It's a shame that I will never can design a Pokémon.

Fun fact: Poipole's design came from one of Turner's many famous "porn workshops". He just huffs paint, gets drunk, and draws pornography of whatever comes to mind. Poipole was one of the most concise designs to come from these workshops.

>Golett

Shit designs, but since they had a unique type combination at the time and Golurk can fly like a rocket, I'll give it a C.

>Vullaby

Pretty generic designs but we got a defensive Honchkrow out of it. It evolves at a very late level and Mandibuzz are common as hell in the BW postgame. B-

These are the worst fucking Pokemon ever made. F

>Phantump

Good design. Had a unique type combination shared with the Pumpkaboo family at the time. A-

>Buzzwole

Ugly ass design but actually a Heracross done right. B

>Guzzlord

Shitmon with a shit design. F

>Poipole
>Naganadel

Should have been Poison/Psychic to be honest. You don't create purple Mew and not make it Psychic-type.

What a waste of fucking space. F

Badass design. A+

He started out in Genius Sorority, the company that was in charge of the Gamecube games. At some point along the line GameFreak absorbed part of GS' staff. It's probably just coincidence that he did Shadow Lugia and went on to create more but you'd have to ask him to know.

Frillish and Jellicent were originally designed to be pure Water types based on royalty, but they had the Ghost type tacked for type diversity in Unova. The designer didn't like the spooky elements added to them since they had intended for them to be regal Pokemon.

Yes. A giant mecha made of clay based on ancienancients that is also a ghost was never done before in the franchise.

The original designer was going for a more regal, soft design which is why the line resembles princes/sses and kings/queens as a mono-Water type. They were upset by the Ghost type being added and the designs being changed into more spooky 'n scary types.

I say they made the right decision on that one. Pure water is so fucking boring. We never had a Water/Ghost before.

I hope we have other cases of pure-typed Pokemon being made dual-typed in the final release.

I believe Stunfisk was changed from Water/Electric to Ground/Electric, but that doesn't count.

>Iris and Drayden were designed as opposites. Drayden is the oldest gym leader, while Iris is the youngest with a lot of potential. She came from the forest and seems to be raised by dragons, while he studied abroad to better understand his favorite type. Drayden is also meant to be a gentleman who is both smart and strong.

So in the games, the Village of Dragons is a literal village of dragons. Iris is actually a wild child in the game; it's not an expression.

Drayden explored a forest one day, found this feral girl, and raised her to be his successor. Then she became the Champion.

Think about this: A female Tarzan is the Champion of the Unova region! Cheren must be pissed!

Poipole was initially the only UB I didn't like (felt like a Mew knockoff like the Lake Guardians), but after using it late-game (and not evolving until Hau) I grew attached and now I miss the lil fella. Sucks you can't get another without injecting/trading/a second save file. Naganadel is cool, though.

In terms of just BW? Sure, but the mons in that gen range from subpar to complete shit. Prioritizing good design rather than kanto pandering should've been what they did for gen 5.

Does Gen 5 have the most notable design comparisons with older Pokemon? Yes.
Do they make up the majority of the dex? Fuck no. Some of them aren't even 1:1 ripoffs by putting their own unique spin on the concept(Jellicent=/=Tentacruel) and some are honestly better than their older counterparts(Excadrill>Dugtrio).
>but the mons in that gen range from subpar to complete shit.
Objectively false, the majority were decent to good. Am I also disagreeing that it had a lot of stinkers too? No, but looking at it realistically the number of inoffensive designs have a higher ratio than the offensive ones

female is horrendous and not i a good way male is somewhat spooky with those red eyes but with a concept like a ghost jellyfish it could have been a lot better

>Axew line
"uuhhh hmmm dragon... hmm it needs something to really sell people, Iunno put some axes for teeth" thats it just dragonish thing with axes for teeth mediocre at best

>Stunfisk
honestly a land flatfish that hunts by buring itself and then zapping anyone who walks over it is a pretty neat concept plus it fits with gen 4 and 5's thing it "land water creatures" like land shark Garchomp sand hippo Hippowdon and sand croc Krookidile. Also the exclamation mark on its back is kinda funny
