>>42723880>>42723907when the first anons criticism was pokemon with built in personalities and jobs, i don't think gen 3 really starts that. Blaziken is a martial artist because its a fighting type, not the other way around. Empoleon is an emperor penguin and has that represented by its crown and that's about it. Maybe if it came with a cape and a royal cane or some shit i'd agree with you.
If all he said was weirdly human-shaped, yeah, blaziken would be the start, and the only example until gen 6.
I don't even agree with that anon about gen 5, i just think the art direction of gen 5's dex as a whole was pretty shit. The pokemon are still animal shaped, but have human qualities applied. I'll make some concessions. Snivy line is smug and samurott has the dumb crown and the sword thing going on (though its major problems are with it being topheavy).
