>>55923433I really hate that I'm turning into one of those "all the new Pokemon suck" types, but it really feels like the monster designs have fallen off hard in Gen 8 and 9.
>DudunsparceLazy
>Gouging Fire, Walking Wake, Raging Bolt"What if we turned the Legendary Beasts into dinosaurs XD!" Just Awful.
>Sandy Shocks/Iron Jugulis/Iron Moth/Slither Wing/Roaring MoonI really don't care for the most of the Paradox Pokemon, especially the robots. I get what Gamefreak was going for, but when there's almost a dozen robot designs, they stop feeling special and start feeling like dex filler. The Ancient Pokemon are somewhat better designed
except the legendary beasts but I'm still not sold on them.
>EiscueIt's just a penguin with a block of ice on its head.
>PawmoI don't "hate" Pawmo, but its design is too close to Pawmot and just screams "dex filler".
>Toedscool/ToedscruelHands down the laziest designs in the franchise. Nothing to set them apart from Tentacool/Tentacruel other than being a different color.
>CalryxIt looks like they ran out of time to draw the rest of its body, so they just gave it so noodle arms and legs and called it a day.
>CarkolThe whole Rolycoly line feels like a mess. Rolycoly is fine, but I still don't understand why they changed Carkol's eyes, it just makes it look goofy. Then, instead of going from wheel-to-cart-to-train like people expected, Coalossal just randomly turns into a kaiju.
>DecidueyeI know it's supposed to be Robin Hood, but I still feel betrayed about not getting my Big Gentlemanly Owl.
>DuraludonLooks like a fucking toilet.
>EnamorusShe ugly.
