>>58852007I like how M-Starmie actually subverts the expectation about Megaevolution design by focusing pretty much exclusively on behavior of Pokemon and not it's look. Also I like how it plays with already established Starmie lore - plenty of Starmie's dex entries connect it to space and speculate about it's alien nature and here we have the alleged aylmao frantically attempting to act like a human, kinda skinwalker-style.
It's bizarre, baffling and kind of stupid but in an interesting way.
Could it be done better? Maybe, but I feel like presentation of Pokemon games is way too limited to sell the "it tries to act like human" idea even more. In manga, anime and other media there's more space for that, tho.
