Why is he considered controversial? I was surprised to find out so many people dislike him.

awkward, stiff proportions, too fat, and heavyhanded jobmon. I actually don't think he's THAT bad in a vacuum, but as an evolution to Rhydon, who is such a cool kaiju mon, he's a big disappointment.

I remember someone that hated this design until they stumbled upon art of a female Rhyperior using it's hand holes to pleasure it's trainer.

I think most people just wanted it to be A rhydon without it's water and grass weakness, they saw solid rock and we're disappointed it didn't stop it from being ohko by its 2 4x weaknesses.

Personally I like it for what it is, just more Rhydon

Simply because it's ugly and unnecessary.
It would've made far more sense to give Rhyhorn a pre-evo so that way Rhyhorn doesn't stick out so much next to literally every other base form of 3 stage evolution lines. Rhydon was already perfectly strong and complete looking.

Rhyperior fans pretending to like Rhyhorn will never not be funny, look at all 3 and tell me who sticks out the most (especially color wise)

Rhydon was a near-perfect kaijumon design, and then Rhyperior comes along and overcomplicates it while looking more like a bootleg of Rhydon.
The only saving grace was giving Rhydon access to Eviolite.

I think overall it's not really an issue of being overdesigned, but rather of having too many attributes that don't really compliment each other. It's a hodgepodge of design ideas that really don't work.

I'm more surprised that people care enough about Rhydon to even be outraged by it's evo in the first place. Always felt like a fodder pokemon, especially when pokemon like Nidoking exist that are basically the same kind of idea just cooler looking and more interesting.

Rhyhorn and Rhydon were considered badass designs.

Rhyperior's has grown on me over time, but I still don't think it looks as cool. Also it's gone from Rock dinosaur to monster rock, which is essentially Golem's shtick.

It's probably one of the few 3 stage lines where I can honestly say it looks less cool with each evolution.

I mean Rhydon essentially was just the original Pokemon kaiju design in index 1 with a drill stuck on his face after 1-2 revisions.

He still looks cool though, despite being simplistic.

No, they did that because they were personally most sentimentally attached to it because it was the first design.
Since when are first drafts the best drafts?
