Can anyone explain to me why /vp/ considers Samurott as the worst designed pokemon in the franchise? Is it really that terrible compared to the rest of the 720?

You're right. More samurai's should have gone into war walking on all fours, then they might've still existed.

But that is thoroughly explained every time these stupid threads pop up, but you faggots never pay attention and the thread 404's shortly thereafter only for it to reappear a couple of days or weeks later. What is even the point? You're still gonna ignore everything because M-MUH BRO!
>>24711647
>>24711673Criminally underrated butt.
>>24711396
Because it goes from bipedal otter to quadruped sea lion in just one evolution.
Don't get me wrong - I love the entire line, but that's the most likely reason you'll get.

>>24711396
The hell are you talking about? Samurott is no prize, but the worst designed pokemon is Landorus by a fucking mile!
>>24711634
Yeah right, like Oshawott and Dewott are compatible with the concept as well. Why should I begin to give a shit that an aquatic samurai isn't practical just because Samurott is different from the rest of the family?
Oshawott and Dewott's heads are too big for them to be bipedal, and their limbs are way too small for support as swimmer or quadrupeds. But no, I'm suppose to begin to care when Samurott goes quadruped to better support its head and weapons.
Oshawott has no fingers, and Dewott hardly has anything that can be considered hands. Am I seriously going to sit here and pretend that Oshawott and Dewott can not only hold their weapons, but maintain their grasp as they swing it? According to /vp/, yes, I should while screaming how Samurott is the most impractical design in the series.
>>24711634

It even looks cute on her.
I still don't get how anyone would sexualized a female Emboar, however.

>>24715393
They don't even look like that and they have no neck/chin. You have to severely alter the base design to make it remotely sexy.

Some of it's body proportions are fucked up (the helmet is too big and the legs too small) but so are many other Pokemon's and nobody complains about them to the extent people do about Samurott.
>>24711461
It's baed on actual monsters of Japanese folklore though. Blame teh Japanese for being so weird.

I'm too lazy to get the full bullet point list but basically the gist is it abandons the themes of the previous starters for edgy escher swords, its body doesn't support its purported role, and it's a clusterfuck of clashing ideas that ultimately results in a very ugly Pokemon.

> This is a bad thing
>>24737528
>Oshawott and Dewott use shells, which fit because otters crack open shells for food and the shape of the shell naturally resembles war fans used in feudal Japan
>Samurott's swords neither resemble shells nor look much like swords either, just being big huge triangle slabs that look like pie servers
>>24737698
looks like a sword to me
>>24737698
>Samurott's swords neither resemble shells
>I have so little knowledge of seashells that I ignore the fact that Pen shells/Pinnidae exist.
>Oshawott and Dewott use shells, which fit because otters crack open shells for food and the shape of the shell naturally resembles war fans used in feudal Japan
And Samurott is based on a pinniped, which shares the same first 5 letters of the scientific name of the Pen shell. The closest seashell that can resemble a sword. Your move faggot.

>Either stabs itself every time it sheayjs or has dull blades

It would look fine if it wasn't fucking quadraped.
Who seriously thought a pokemon wielding a weapon in its forearms should be on all four limbs for walking?
>>24711396
In BW1 I thought the thing on its head was its sword and was completely fine with it. Of course back then there were still a few pieces of media indicating that it had swords in its legs but they were few and far between and you had to search for them. But when BW2 came out and the leg sword shilling really started Samurott completely went to shit. It ruins the design and is a complete betrayal to Samurott's original fans.
tl;dr it's the leg swords
>>24711751
>Pausado
muh glorioso mestizo inmigrante
>>24711461
Stop comparing Youkai to Pokemon. They aren't the same thing. I'm sick of people doing this.
On-topic, Samurott had a good concept going but a case of artist's block(Oomura confirmed it himself)caused it to become what it is today. The only way to salvage it would be to make it full on bipedal but then that would probably raise a lot more questions.
Either way, it was doomed from the start.
Chaoskamph is pure love.

This isn't about the swordsman part, this is about how reasonable the tail design is when complimented with hind legs on an aquatic pokemon.
You missed the point of the comparison completely.

This is just proof the overall Gen5 hate is an ironic meme. Even if one of out every 10 gen 5 hater isn't ironic, he doesn't make up for all the people such as the ones in this thread that actually do love it. It's literally the best gen and Samurott is a pretty cool mon.
I'm not big on Emboar but whenever I play BW/2 I always struggle between Serp and Samu.
