>>39015476>based on simple designs and actual animalsMan I love Rhydon, Venusaur, Mewtwo, Magmar, Electabuzz, Sandslash, Jynx, Gyrados, Nidoking, Marowak, Gengar, Porygon, Kabutops, and Omastar so much.
Face it, the majority of gen 1 mons were based on conglomerates of many real life animals, objects and concepts. Very few were hardly "literally just", and we should from those that are rather than repeat that shitty design direction
these are "MONSTERS", yes they can be similar to real life animals but they should bring their own flavor, like Luxray or Murkrow. They are very similar to Lions and Crows respectively but they are very clearly not just that.
