Every gen of Pokemon had it's examples of "stupid looking" Pokemon. RBY had a seal called Seel.

Yeah but recently they've been getting so much worse. It's like the "calarts" design but for monsters. The original pokemon you could imagine were real creatures, albeit fantastical, the new ones are just lanky mono-colored blobs. The NPC trainer and gym leader designs are even worse.

If you know anything about GameFreak, you'll know that their use of resources sucks colossal ass. Hell, Gen 2 almost never happened because they ran out of cart space when the game was only half finished and it took the efforts of Iwata to compress it down to the point that Kanto went from a single town to the entire region. They did shit like have multiple copies of the same trainer sprite for each instance of said trainer instead of just having a single instance of the trainer sprite and using that for each instance.

Likewise, the 3D models are the same ones they've been using since the games first went past sprite art which would be fine if they actually put effort into attack animations. But, as stated with their use of trainer sprites, I wouldn't be shocked if GameFreak were so fucking stupid that they couldn't just do something like scale the rigs for snake-type Pokemon for animations. You know, the reason they supposed removed a shit ton of Pokemon and moves. Oh, wait, it was for balance. Balance. From the company that made fucking Calyrex-Shadow. And Zacian-Crowned.

The fact that the modders who make Pokemon Luminescent (the Renegade Platinum mod for the Gen 4 remakes) do a better job than the actual developers is both impressive and sad.

Yes. Like a pile of sludge, a firebreathing dragon, and the several Pokemon that "evolve" into "3 of them grouped together".

the new ones are just lanky mono-colored blobs.

Yeah, it's not like Gen 1 didn't have a Pokemon that was nothing but a mono-colored blob.

God, Genwunner are so fucking retarded.

"Futacumdiet"

I think all your cocksucking faggotry is getting to your brain.

Imagine being such a soyfag you think literal pieces of trash and balloons kids let go of are good Pokemon

What did Gen 4 and 5 do to get roped into this? I like Drifloon and Trubbish. There's room for blob monsters like Muk and Garbodor to coexist together. At least none of their designs have resorted to having a face straight out of Adventure Time.

Sit the fuck down, fag. You're in my fucking dojo. Lemme know when your ass gets a "vacation" for being 16'd and then you can shoot your mouth off.

Second off:

Imagine being such a soyfag you think literal pieces of trash and balloons kids let go of are good Pokemon

As opposed to literal fucking sludge (that evolves into a bigger pile of sludge), a literal fucking boxer, and the countless amount of 'mons that are just "we added a horn to an animal and called it a day". Seriously, the only people who complain about Pokemon designs are man-children who want to masturbate to them.

If anyone is retarded, it's probably the person getting butthurt about differing pokemon opinions.

Advanced forms of retardation are the best kind.

Who could forget such unforgettable designs as "a bird", "a snake", "a caterpillar", and of course, "a bat"?

I see a Pidgey I recognize it as a Pidgey. I'm not going to mistake it for some other real or fantasy bird. There really is something timeless and iconic about the old school pokemon designs, even if they're simple in execution.

Also, I'm not sure what you think a bat looks like, but they tend to not be teal and have no eyes and long tendrils for legs.
