Jynx and Exeggcute are shit, and Voltorb is the laziest design they could have done for a mimic-based mon. Literally a Pokeball with eyes.

Not really. They could have made it an angry shadowy blob hiding inside of a Pokeball, or they could have done what Gen V did and made it a mushroom that looks like a ball from above. Or a crab. Or a tortoise.

Making it a Pokeball with eyes is boring and lazy.

thats great and all that real hedgehogs have that, but the thing has 4 colors it has to juggle without looking stupid. pikachu isn't a good design either for the same reason, yellow, red, black, and brown is to much for a small creature like pikachu. hell even bigger pokemon like garchomp look retarded because they said "fuck it, lets just add ALL the colors"

Outside Earthquake weakness and Pikaclone shit stats, Electric/Steel is awesome. Consider that it's fat it will probably be the slower Pikaclone, and Pachirisu already had -decent- defenses. Since it doesn't need speed it can focus on defenses and HP.

Animal Crossing handled it with cards. I could see that working for a full Pokémon line. Complement it with figures for the marquee new Pokémon - starters, box cover legendaries, standout fan favorites later on - and it'd sell ridiculously well.

literally the same fucking shit, different designs. they are all pokemon created by the pokemon company and there is ever only one reason people bitch about them on 4chan, nostalgia. it has always been and will always be, nostalgia. you were never a fan if you stopped playing the games, because pokemon will always be consistent with the way it works, it will never change. so people will continue to bitch about a fish with lips, and then completely disregard that wobuffet has lips.

i love pokemon. i will always appreciate the new designs and i can't wait to catch them and train the ones i want. its something new and fun every 3 years or so? or whenever they make the new games.
