Kaijumons look like fat babies. Stumpy limbs with claws for fingers. Round stomachs typically with beige stripes and beige jaws with sparse teeth and fangs.
Haxorus is a kaijumon that's more removed from this Gen 1-2 kaijumon philosophy. It's more like Garchomp in that is slimmer and more dinosaur-like than kaijumon-like.

He means that gen 5 designs broke the mold (pun intended) of old design philosophy, fitting for games set in a new region designed to have only new pokemon. They should have cut the dex in gen 5 and kept the japanese region pokemon as their own multi-regional dex

I think what he meant is that thing where they "make a cool Pokemon, and then change its design so it's a little bit uncool". That's what gives Pokemon their charm usually.

Charizard looks like a cool fire dragon? BAM! Pot belly.
Lucario looks like a martial arts Anubis? BAM! Beach shorts!

Haxorus doesn't have anything that makes it less cool, but that contributes to its place in the Pokedex. It works because it's defined by its exception, unlike gen 8 where fucking everything is a jigsaw puzzle monstrosity.

If I was in charge, I would only hire young cute girls, make them work normally and make them think I don't have any ulterior motives, but reject all of their proposes, just edit the ones I actually like slightly and use those for the games, once I see one of them frustrated at her lack of success, reject her next design telling her it still needs something, once I see her sad reaction tell her "well, I guess you could try to convince me [winks in Japanese]" and then put my Onix in her cloyster

GF sucks at making pseudos, but it doesn't bother me since I treat them as legendaries that are only in the game for children to have something OP for late and post-game content

The fact she managed to make so many distinct unique character designs despite over half of them wearing the exact same uniform shows shes a skilled character designer. And when shes putting 100% into her work she can make some impressive stuff. She's more skilled than 90% of other shonen mangaka.

Haxorus was one of the few good Gen 5 designs, because it wasn't trying too hard to be "quirky" or "unique", it's just a cool dinosaur monster.
Something that would kinda fit with the earlier gens, minus a few details.
