>>35281263Your example is comparing the characteristics of adult and child characters in /animation/.
And while it is important for distinct traits to be recognized between older and younger characters (large forehead, big eyes= young; wrinkles, smaller eyes= old) in cartoons, it's kind of different for a creature design in a video game.
Try and compare the snout of every fox pokemon with eevee. Vulpix line, Zorua line, Fennekin line, and to an extent, the Abra line all share the same long pointy snout that Eevee does not have.
>>35281229The website is only doing it's job to promote pokemon-related things, no matter what the subject is. Some third-party can just create a "poke-whale day" event and include Luvdisk, and the website won't do anything about it other than "Yeah!! Celebrate poke-whale day!!"
It's just a fun little event for players to participate in. It's not that deep.
>Is this the hill you wish to die on?If you're going to be using Niantic as your holy source of 'word-of-god' information, I ask you the same question.
Also this is the same company that left out fucking Smeargle, who is literally a beagle, so Niantic is just flat out retarded.
