What the FUCK did they do to Raikou? It’s like Alolan Exeggcutor, but instead of being a deliberate goofy joke, it’s completely unironic. And people are DEFENDING this shit?

I'm half convinced that people are only pretending to like some of the newer pokemon solely so they can argue about it on the internet

It's a Paradox Pokemon. It's supposed to look dumb.

We can argue about the execution, but much like Ultra Beasts, the paradox mon are meant to look wrong. The very idea of there being a genetic line of legendary beasts is absurd given the existing lore. The choice of a bronto was deliberate, as it fulfills the “weird” quota and plays on “thunder lizard”. It’s silly but effective.

Tropius was perfectly fine; But if this thing fails to be meta, it’s not meeting a quota anymore. So what’s it doing?

Ever since Alolan Exeggutor, Game Freak has been dedicated to making more funny LONG Pokemon. Probably for the social media reactions.

Sniper tower.
The only one that I really find inexcusable is Gigantamax Meowth. That literally is just a meme and nothing else.

They gave it a Paradox based off a brachiosaur. Just like how Suicune was given a Paradox based off a velociraptor.

I was thinking that if paradoxes are not imagination or time travel creatures, they are a "What if" of parallel universes, in this case what if a Ho-Oh in prehistory had revived some dinosaurs in circumstances similar to the 3 beasts, only change burning tower for a forest and instead of 3 mammals for dinosaurs.

Thus every life form that Ho-Oh brings back to life has these characteristics.

I don't believe anyone genuinely likes emboar or
samurott. Just contrarians looking to bait flamewars.

> let's slap a long neck on raikou and call it a new pokemon !
paradox mons were a mistake
okay in all seriousness, this is still slightly better than most of the other paradox mons. it's the only one that has a sauropod motif going on so it's unique in that regard. it could have had a better execution but it's not as lazy as the rest minus Walking Wake

I genuinely do like samurott. The hisuian form specifically. Top 5 in my favourite dark types, that's for sure. Base is.. fine? But the jagged edges are pretty dang neat.

..also, >>54818491, it's inspired by the myth of the serpopard, which is essentially a leopard with a long-ass snake neck.
