>>53902746My only gripe is how regional variants aren't really 'variants' just excuses to redesign mons to either be more appealing looking or buff them via a rework.
A-ninetales sticks out, redesigned to not just look like a fox but some majestic creature with a typing thats better in general (fairy) and be buffed overall while OG ninetales is dead.
Samurott is literally just taking og samurott, making it look a little better, then slapping a new type and move on it so it doesn't suck and be as forgotten as OG.
Zoroark failing as lucario 2 makes sense why they'd redesign it to try and make zorua 'cuter' just like they did with vulpix to be remembered.
