Why are some of Gen 8's designs decent and then the rest are just retarded looking?

The only bad ones are Duraludon and Stonjourner.
The others just look weird to you because you haven't gotten used to them yet.

I'm pretty used to Gen 5 by now and I can say that those designs are objectively the worst of the whole series.

Meowth and Perrserker are nice designs, as are the regional Yamask and it's evolution because of the Anglo-Saxon themes which make Galar seem more like it's IRL counterpart.

Copperjah was the let down of the generation. It’s been six generations since we’ve gotten an elephant, which are fascinating and intelligent creatures that have so much potential for monster designs. Then we get an interesting concept translated into ugly, blocky, and disjointed design. As a Phanpy and Donphan bro, I’ve gone past mad to just… disappointed.

Ice cream pokemon is dumb. Golurk is fine. Vullaby is dumb but Madibuzz is okay. Phantump is a great pokemon but Trevenant doesn't look like a pokemon, something is weird about the art style.

I don’t understand the Copperajah hate. Initially, I found its the colors and proportions very jarring until I learned its based off Indian art, which depicted elephants in bronze and copper statues.

I also fucking love elephants, so the Cufant line is one of my favorite additions this gen. Donaphan never felt like a proper elephant Pokemon.
