>>58021347 (OP) I fully believe they designed Tinkaton as a single stage evolution, but wanted to shill it, and remembered most people don't care about single stages. So they retroactively added two "baby" forms that look half-baked just to call Tinkaton a 3-stage pokemon.
>>58021347 (OP) most of the gimmick pokemon, I love Garbodor, but most of them are just "this is an ice cream cone, this is a set of keys, this is a dog, this is a cat", at least Rotom still looks like Rotom as a lawnmower or whatever

>>58022097 I'm surprised they haven't created Megas for unevolved Pokรฉmon, like Pikachu.
>>58022341 Because lore-wise, Megas are for Pokemon who've already reached their maximum evolutionary power. That's why people seethe about them nowadays, because mons that could get evolutions that redeem the line in this day and age of powercreep will never get them without a regional replacement.
>>58022073 >dunsparce finally gets an evolution in the gen filled with game-breaking powercreep bullshit >it still sucks >and it looks like fucking this >and it's called DUDunsparce could they have been any less subtle
>>58022425 At least it has two good cards in the TCG

>>58022425 GameFreak was glad everyone completely missed the point of Dunsparce because it allowed them to utterly clown on idiots who thought they'd turn it into a Magikarp Clone where it suddenly becomes a badass dragon, if people were actually savvy to the internal workings of the concept then we'd never get a Dunsparce evolution, like how we were cucked out of new Eeveelutions because every idea GameFreak came up with was too similar to a pre-existing Japanese fan design.
>>58022497 Literally, yes. The Tsuchinoko is a creature of myth that's valuable because of the bounties put on it, but not for any real reason beyond its rarity and to prove its existence.

>>58022527 >Literally, yes something that's shit on purpose is still shit, and something that's shit is never superior to something that isn't shit by the very definition of the world "shit". My point being, you're a slopsucking retard if you defend dudunsparce, especially so if you use the "muh youkai" argument when we already have cool pokemon based on silly youkai so it's more than possible

Galarian Mime, I hope they fired whoever designed and approved that thing.
