What's with Game Freak's obsession with apes and monkeys recently?

Are you baiting to have a discussion about ape/monkey pokemon, anon?

I'd say they just make for interesting designs.
They are mammals, have humanish features and expressions and they are pretty much spread around the world so they kinda fit in most regions.

Also isn't monkey/ape imagery important in Asian traditions?

agree with most of these points, and yes, they are a lot more prominent in eastern traditions/stories than the west

there are also a ton of different species so its not that hard to make them unique, just like all of the bird mons. lots of different body types/aesthetics to pull from

there were 3 pokemon inspired by primates in gen 3
4 in gen 4
fucking 8 in gen 5
2 in gen 7
6 in gen 8 with 2 being regional variants

it's not recent if they did nearly 10 of them in a single gen more than a decade ago

By that logic they're really obsessed with birds and fish.
