You only like it because it has a strong move. If it didn't, /vp/ would care about the gen 8 fossils no more than Tyrantrum or Bastiodon.

false. I only like it because of the top half, having a full mon of it would be cool and cute. the theme of all of those fossils are also imaginative and in-depth since literally no pokemon beforehand has done something similar to these designs before. that being said, it's a theme that shouldn't have existed because it looks weird and uncomfortable.
also, gen6 fossils are awesome because they're literally dinosaurs, and dinos are some of the first things people think of when they hear of "fossils"

Not true for me. I love all 4 of the fossils just cause of how stupid and hilarious they look

Didn't even know Fisheous Rend existed until people started to cry about it

I like it because it has a strong move AND because it has a unique funny design unlike the boring forgettable trash you listed.

Was leveling it up before I even found out about Bolt Beak. Didn't like Arctozolt because the bird part looked too sad and the other two fossils look like they wanted to stay extinct.

It's almost as if people like strong Pokemon. Look at all the mons with great designs that have been forgotten and dropped to irrelevance just because they were fucking dogshit. Power matters more than you think when it comes to popularity.

It's a fine theme that can work well, as seen with Silvally.

because it's the first time we have two species of Pokemon merge in an official game. this isn't some unofficial website that fuses them.
>in-depth
it was part of the region's history at how the people who discovered the fossil's put them together wrong, it's literally a reference and callback to that.

It's the same reason every single time: rock is a shitty defensive type and an excellent offensive type, yet they insist on making rock pokemon slow and bulky. They also tend to have ass movepools.
Notice how good Terrakion is despite all its extremely common weaknesses.
