>>40295001>SinnohA mixed bag that clues me in to your taste, which seemes to be toward a certain refinement or elegance combined with a certain fondness for levity or unintentional dopiness.
Dusknoir being one of my absolute favorite Pokemon, and the Duskull line too, seeing it on your list charms me. Detractors regularly denounce the rotund body, yet I refute them by pointing out that each of its pre-evolutions were "fat" as well; and on top of that, Dusknoir is clearly based on genies / djinns, which in modern pop culture are typically depicted as large-torsoed. Dusknoir, very intimidating with its scowling single red eye, its maw stomach with its own sharp golden eyes, and its finger'd collar, quite the upgrade from its merely unsettling Duskull form; and perhaps the creators were so proud of its horrific appearance and nature that they slapped it with Pressure as its sole ability. Truly a patrician favorite.
Roserade is more popular yet still a good design as well. The rest of your picks range from average & dull to slightly unappealing.
2.5/6
>UnovaI have a bias against all Unova and post-Unova mons, feeling a radical departure from the apparent original design philosophies of Pokemon everything before then had mostly adhered to.
With that disclaimer, I again spy a mixture of undiscriminate taste crossed with a certain eye for quality. If judged according to their own region's standards, I'd say this list warrants another half rating.
3/6
>KalosI could almost copy-paste my Unova comment.
Again, you have roughly half I respect and half I look down upon.
Here, I think Hawlucha and Tyrantrum stand out as the better designs, all things considered.
3.5/6
>AlolaThis was probably the most difficult, in my opinion, to get right; and I don't think you managed it.
It not for its typing, Alolan Exeggutor would be a passable design. Salazzle, completely irregardless of whatever sex appeal it may have, is a sleek design that one shouldn't turn their nose up at.
2/6
