What's up with his lip?

Seriously? This is a very deliberate and consistent design choice across different media that I've never seen others bring up before. Why's his lip like that?

He also doesn't have an arm and eye.
Probably been almost killed by a Pokemon and therefore he wants them seperate from the people or contol them like tools. He hates N because he can't be classified neither as a human nor Pokemon, it's not... black and white.

If I recall right, the reason for him losing an eye was that his Zweillous/Hydreigon attacked him after being mistreated and undergoing very intensive training to make it evolve earlier.

He does have an arm, but it may be seriously damaged and unusable. In his BW2 artwork you can clearly see it bulging through the coat. His Masters model also has both hands but there's no visible skin, and according to bulbapedia he holds his right arm behind his back.

In BW intro you can see him using both hands, but the right is dark. No idea if that's a glove or some burn/scar; either way I assume N's coronation happened some time before the start of the storyline and Ghetsis' hand became useless after that, either by some accident/attack or progressive damage.

This hasn't been stated anywhere, but it's pretty reasonable given how vicious Hydreigon is.

I love this shit though. Just these weird little details that don't necessarily have a clear answer that make you think. He's CLEARLY got some sort of deformity or injury, but the cause is unclear. And like, whats up with this fuckin coat from B2W2? >>54973713 Looks cool as fuck but whats with all the horizontal eyes and shit? Does it have any meaning? There's an odd focus on eyes with him in general, so it doesn't seem like its meaningless. But who knows? I love that kinda stuff.

It’s not confirmed, but it is my headcanon. His Hydreigon knows Frustration and actually has minimum friendship (which is something no other NPC’s Pokemon has), which proves that it does hate Ghetsis. It’s reasonable to assume it hates him enough to maul him and cause his damaged eye, arm, and lip.

There's also the fact he has an underleveled Hydreigon meaning he likely forced it to evolve early somehow. There is also the fact that Hydreigon is known for being incredibly violent and attacking anything that moves. It's probably the most widely agreed upon theory that his injuries are a result of his Hydreigon.

No, the metric was the Pokemon transitioning to 3D, and this was always seen as a new era. You're the one trying to revise shit.
>Kanto Pokemon
When Johto released, 100% of references to previous games would have been to Kanto. With HGSS, they expanded the scope of these references to Hoenn and Sinnoh as well.
With Kalos, Kanto was only about a quarter of all past mons, but were overwhelmingly and unnaturally shilled in XY.

Ah, so you think only Gen 1-3 is old Pokemon? Fair enough.

That’s weird, I don’t remember Lucario being from Kanto. I don’t remember Reshiram, Zekrom, Chandelure, Palpitoad, and Golurk being from Kanto either. Could it be that you’re seething out of jealousy for Kanto just like you seethe about Gen 2?

A functional eye and a missing one. A disabled half and normal half of his body. His BW1 robe has different colors on each side. In the screenshot with the crown he literally has A WHITE HAND AND A BLACK HAND. Also, his two-faced nature. Ghetsis was literally designed to be a walking yin/yang symbolism.

Johtofags are hated for inserting themselves into any discussion where people are speaking positively about gen 3 and absolutely firebombing it with “IT KILLED POKEMANIA”

Gen 6 has the same dynamic with gen 5, trying to shift the blame for who “ruined everything forever”

It’s clearly not overwhelmingly and unnaturally though. Sounds like you’re just jealous of Kanto.

Saw this in some YouTube comment so take this with a grain of salt.

Most agree Ghetsis lost his eye due to some kind of "training accident" with his Hydreigon (which explains why it knows Frustration, a move for Pokemon who REALLY fucking hate their trainers)
His lip and right arm are probably from the same incident, but I also read that it came from him getting too close to Kyurem and that fucked up half his body.

Also anyone think it's really cool that his "solid eye" is white in BW1 because he claimes to hold absolute truth but then it's black in BW2 because it's clear he's fighting for his own ideals? B&W has such amazing lore desu
