Why do Grass types never get unique designs?

I wass excited for .2 seconds when this one got revealed because I thought they were finally doing the Grass/Fire chili pepper. Not the case.

Fire gets Pokemon inspired by darumaka dolls, bloodhounds and pheromone emitting salamanders.

I don't even get the design shift from this stage to the next. Dandelion motif aside, the style completely changes.

This is going to be one of the most forgotten designs a few years from now, it is so generic it hurts. Eldegoss isn't even that bad, it might be known solely as "Eldegoss' pre-evolution"

>Dandelion motif aside
But that's the entire point. It probably could use a midstage but even then it's going from one stage of a dandelion's life to another. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQ_QqtXoyQw

Yeah, you have a point. Not like we have jurassic fern dinosaurs, world turtle ankylosaurs, princess lillies, thorny chesnut armor, queen fruit, japanese mythology trees, scarecrow cacti, yeti snow owl radishes, durian bombs, hallucinogenic shrooms, origami monsters, or haunted ship wreckage or anything

>>40493792
It's actually cotton. From the young colorful flower to when it ages into the browned petal cotton we know to use in pillows and such.

Dislike this thing, but its evolution looks pretty good. Really reminds me of some of the older gen designs.

They're not less creative than a chili pepper just because that's the one you want.

It's not what I want, just that if they had to use this design it would've been something more memorable.

Fire also has 3 Fire/Fighting starters in a row and a load of "animals but with fire on them". If anything Grass has more creative designs on the whole since there is less you can do with Fire.

What was the point?

No it isn't because it is not even based on a Dandelion, you idiot.

Hoppip line are Dandelions, not cotton
Cottonee line are cotton mixed with sheep. Whimiscott might also be based on the Saci(a brown prankster that can create winds)

Gossifleur line brings nothing new to the table though
