>>45163111>Looks like a bugOnly at a glance of the initially leaked image, and even then that misconception was quickly erased once people understood its namesake, pointing it to being a bunch of individual soldiers in a marching line.
>Learns First Impression, which is bug type, another thing to trick you into thinking that its a bugWhen has that ever meant anything? Ever? Falinks isn't trying to trick other Pokemon into thinking it's a bug; there's no thematic purpose for that in its concept or design. First Impression doesn't inherently have anything to do with bugs anyway, like U-Turn.
I have no idea why people still cling to their "Falinks is supposed to resemble a bug" misconception/headcanon.
