>>52534030For me it's roaring moon. Salamence is already a pretty whatever design I've never cared about (that a lot of people also adore, but I get it, it's a dragon-looking dragon with a cool color scheme, it'd bound to be loved by the lowest common denominator), and seeing how people reacted to mega-salamence's shitty design back in ORAS comparing it to a croissant and whatnot, I assumed it was only a matter of time until people recognised how shitty roaring moon was as well. But from the very first moment the blurry pic leaked everybody loved it, and everybody keeps loving it still. I thought to myself that maybe my opinion would change seeing it in-game, in higher detail, up close and animated, but the thing is still hideous. Just put lots of frills on wings and scale patched on legs and a dumb helmet and boom 10/10 paradox form everybody loves it and it makes the top spots in every paradox tier list.
