>>58597590>But there are plenty of beloved and good "cartoon animal" Pokémon designs that typically have higher widespread popularity than the "high brow you just don't get it" or jobmon concepts we are getting drowned in latelynta but not really honestly. I'm not trying to be facetious but the Pokemon that fall into this camp tend to be middling in popularity at absolute best and more often than not just don't blip on people's radars at all. For the most popular you got, well, Typhlosion, Feraligatr kinda, Arcanine if that counts...and anything pat that is kind of a stretch. Gogoat, Stoutland, Mightyena, Zebstrika, Squawkabilly, Komala, etc. etc.
There's a never ending conga line of Pokemon that don't go much farther than animal+element and got forgotten because of it.
