Memes aside, you can believe what you want when it comes to aesthetic design. However, every single one of Smogon's fakemons feels less like a creature and more like a set of numbers designed to cater to a specific facet of their made-up meta. Because that's exactly what they are.

I mean, literally their only purpose is to fill-in unused (at the time) type combinations

I have, and literally all of them, barring 4, have types that were unique at their inception. And almost none of them have much else outside of that. Don't try to tell me they aren't just trying to fill out unique types because of autism.

They're more about filling unused or unviable niches.
Pajantom in the OP, for example, is a mon that was built around using trapping moves.

So you've never read the actual processes that go into designing them? Where typing isn't the first thing they go for?

Don't try to pretend typing has nothing to do with it
If typing has nothing to do with it then why the fuck do so many of them have unique typings

To be fair Pajantom is a really cool design, being a tiny baby dragon who project a fucking nightmare stand to fight for it. It even has a single massive horn that looks like a nightcap. It's one of their few designs that's absolutely blessed.
