>>44619482Gigalith looks cooler. Golem has always looked weird to me. And geodude has always looked dumb, especially in the early sprites. Roggenrola on the other hand is super cute.
Point for Roggenrola line
>>44619639I like Frillish, but Jellicent is bleh. Tentacool and Tentacruel are ok.
Point for Tentacool line.
>>44619707Machop and machoke are cool, though machamp puts me off. I know the inspiration, but those pink veins on Timburr seriously gross me out.
Point for Machop line.
>>44619783Even without crobat, I still think zubat is cute. Golbat is goofy in a charming way. Woobat is cute but swoobat is bland.
Point for Zubat line.
>>44619855Hitmonlee is cool but Hitmonchan is stupid. Sawk and Throh would look better if they lost the uniforms.
Point for Hitmons.
>>44619955Chansey. I dislike Audino's skin tone color scheme.
Point for Chansey line.
>>44620001Palpitoad is cool and Poliwrath is kind of boring as an evolution. That said I love Poliwhirl.
Point for Poliwag line.
>>44620056Hypno is a psychic goblin with a fluffy collar. Musharna is a pink blob that got worse with 3d.
Point for Drowzee line.
>>44620113Grimer and Muk are a neat, though not unique, spin on rpg slime monsters. Trubbish is cute, but I dislike Garbador. Though they are both literally trash.
Point for Grimer line.
>>44620185Venonat is cool, but Volcorona trumps Venomoth easily.
Point for Larvesta line.
>>44620257Both are not great. Golduck is letdown. Ducklet and Swanna being a literal ugly duckling into swan is too on the nose (feebas into milotic did it better). I do like Swanna's flying model way better than its static pose.
Point for Psyduck line.
>>44620314I think a better comparison would be the Paras line? That said both lines are good. I like Kingler's goofy face maybe a little more.
Point for Krabby line.
>>44620360Abra line, no contest. Only Gothorita is cute.
Reuniclas is better than both lines though.>>44620402Magnemite line, no contest.
