Pigs are based and I hope all of them are in SV but they won't be.

I don't understand why they named it Lechonk, which is about as reference-y as it can get, but it looks neat I guess.

Garbage. It's literally just a cartoon pig.
Give it wings or a segmented tail or something. Fuck.

Lechon means piglet. The word is derived from Leche (milk).

It's just boring, like Wooloo and Yamper before it. Do people even still talk about it? It doesn't even really feel like anyone cares what it'll evolve into.

Its French name, Gourmelet (gourmet + porcelet, ie. piglet), is pretty good.
I'm neutral to the design and expect nothing for the evo.

Not anyone else's fault that you're a retard who thinks lechon and the noise a pig makes is some reddit reference instead.
Maybe get a fucking education you dumb bitch, fucking retards on this board.

Yeah, okay. They also could've used literally anything to tack on to the end. Lechonnel, for all I care.
Why the fuck did they pick the K!? I think it's because the translation team got lazy. The English translation team isn't exactly known for being the most creative out there(Grumpig, Tepig, Emboar...)

I wasn't giving credit to the Japanese by saying what I said, y'know. I said that because they're basically given free reign to do as they pleased with the names so long as it fit, and they just... don't.

The name is absolutely referencing "chonk" (yes OBVIOUSLY it is also lechon, 2 things can be true at once) but honestly we've had goofy shit like Geodude and Farfetch'd from the beginning. Design is pretty good, feels like a proper Pokemon that could exist in any gen.

While his work was decent, there were quite a few misses here and there.
LA and NY, for example.

Yea, and I can't say I'm a fan of "Seel" and "Dewgong". Still, I think he did give it a certain charm, for the most part anyway.

Oh yeah those ones... Dear lord have mercy with those really early ones.
But yeah, at least they all had a certain vibe to them, which I don't get when I hear "Lechonk". Those names sound timeless, Lechonk is going to be outdated when the internet eventually moves on.

Indifferent to the pokemon itself. Vaguely annoyed it's name is a reference to social media culture. But then again, your trainer doesn't even have a gender any more so maybe social media culture references are the best we can get now.

No? It's Lechon, a Spanish dish that's basically a roasted baby pig, and oink, the sound pigs make.

you're acting like this is new. Ruby/Sapphine/Emerald were the first games to reference internet culture (they had emoticons and acronyms like "LOL" you could select when writing letters) because a GF employee was a regular on SomethingAwful. Same cringey shit just from a different generation.

No, it's chonker. It's a fat animal and it's a chonker, that's what it is.

>>51779351
No, I didn't say internet culture, I said social media culture. There's a vast difference between the internet and spastics on twitter. It's not the same shit.
