>>39086825>Also I would argue that the ice cream is complete. Base is an ice cream cup, evo is an ice cream cone (more people prefer a coned ice to a cupped ice) and the second evo are 2 scoops. Also Vanilluxe has the Straw used for Milkshakes, just because it makes sense from a thematic point of view.two scoop sundaes thematically are milkshakes? Two scoops on a cone are traditionally horizontal?
and yeah the concept, as evidenced by the fact the white fluff on top isn't actually a part of the creature, is that it's an ice sprite (think jack frost) with icecream-like "hair" and its body has diamond pattern that evokes both dixiecones and a certain kind of medieval garb commonly seen on depictions of elves like Puck. Strengthen the elf connection more, maybe some legs and pointed ears or a collar, and you've got some great stuff. Even as is it's not an affront.
It's evo doubles down on the ice part of icecream by swapping the dixie cone for an ice stalagtite, but unfortunately does not go waffle cone to retain the courtly diamonds. Similarly, the head is now a soggy amorphous blob that no longer fully evokes scoops of icecream or the head of any humanoid much less an elf. It's a melty lump on an icicle. Period. Very lazy, LOLWENEEDEDMOREICETYPES/5, needs more polish/10.
Then by third evo, it has every mediocrity of the second, but has a siamese twin and a bendy straw in its prefrontal cortex. The only other pokemon with a head growing out of its head is weezing, which is supposed to be mutated by toxic waste, and looks and sounds unwell and in pain, as is befitting.
However Vanilluxe is not only just as facially tumored, but exhibits a drooling blank grin having been lobotimized by its leaking brain implant, in the shape of a straw doubling down on the idea that this pokemon is indeed food and meant to be eaten, and that especially you should start slurping out its brains.
No. No no no. All of this could have been prevented, demerits all around.
