>>58443308Wooloo is fine, in fact it and Dubwool are pretty decent modern designs by all account. The fanbase jut latched onto it because it's genuinely cute, not because it's deliberately goofy or a reference to something.
Here's the actual timeline of the downfall:
>Gen 6 introduces Mega Slowbro, which starts the "old mon gets a deliberately dumb looking new form" trend >Gen 7 introduces Alolan forms which kickstart practically every specific cancerous goofy design trend going forward (blatant meme/pop culture references, silly hair/facial hair, thing but looooooong, etc) along with bunch of new Pokemon that prioritize flaunting their underlying concept over their visual design>Gen 8 has Galarian forms and Gigantamax forms that take that ball and run with it, and now actual original Pokemon start being designed as little more than vessels for jokes too like Eiscue and Calyrex>Gen 9 dex is filled with more abysmal dogshit designs that do all of the above things than ever before like Palafin, Garganacl, Gholdengo, Archaludon, Sandy Shocks, etc.
