It's as if they completely forget what evolution means when they designed the gen 5 starters.
>>25850299
chespin is more bigger
fennekin is a renamon 2 electric boogaloo
froakie becomes a latios/toxicroak/lickitung fusion
>>25850299
Oshawott is one of my favorite starters(in terms of design), but I don't like its final evolution very much
>>25850299
But Tepig ends up becoming Luchador Ganon though, far superior than the worst grass starter and worst water starter. Yes you heard me, worst on both.
>>25850299
A pig growing up to become fat, then getting fried does make sense, especially since the game is set in America
>>25850299
You can shit all you want on the fire and water turds, but the Snivy line is pure perfection.
Not only does it have a regal theme going on, but it's also the way snakes originated as well.
>>25850299
>Snivy loses limbs
> forget what evolution means
Anon that's litteraly how snake evolved.
>Evolution is one-way
You what cunt
>>25850299
In Serperior's case it makes more sense than it appears. Snivy's legs already appear to be vestigial, so what does nature when you don't need something? Just remove it.
Plus in real life, snakes did lose their limbs the same way.

In Samurott case, 4 legs bring much more stability than 2, but giving it arsenal and no hands to use it was stupid.
In Tepig case it's simple, it's made more for strength than for agility.

Snivy is the worst grass starter in terns of design. Every other grass starter design incorporates a plant that evolves alongside the Pokemon. Snivy's line is just a fucking leaf.

Bellsprout loses the feet/roots
Meowth gets quadrupedal
Venusaur/Blastoise also gets fat/heavy compared to the first forms
Your point?
>>25850411
Snivy is good, the other two are absolute dogshit and a degrace to the grass starters along with Chespin's middle evolution.
They're worse than Chikorita, Bayleff, and Meganium combined. They're fucking dogshit and you should be ashamed of your tastes.

>Oshawott becomes quadrupedal
end this meme, it's capable of standing up, it's just not in the art.
>>25850510
A bear is also capable of standing up, that doesn't mean it's still not a quadruped.
>>25850447
Not a leaf, you dumb tit, it's a grass snake.
Even the color scheme fits perfectly.
>>25850491
No, you.

What did you just say to me you little bitch?

You can't be fucking serious. It's hands clearly has visible thumbs to hold it's weapons properly you braindead nitwit.

I feel that Samurott was a "fuck you" to otter lovers. But the animal change doesn't really bother me anyway(and seals used to look like river otters so it's less retarded than a fish into a cephalopod). What got me interested in picking Oshawott was the shell weapon motifs and Samurott retains and enhances that in a "armored warrior" fashion.
>>25850571
What's your point? Every grass starter is an animal that incorporates a plant in its design. This plant then grows as the Pokemon evolves. Bulbasaur's bulb eventually grows into a flower/tree. Chikorita has seeds on its neck that eventually turn into petals. Treecko's tail eventually turns into a bush/evergreen tree. Turtwig's seedling eventually grows into a tree. Chespin's chestnut armour slowly gets bigger and harder as it evolves. Snivy doesn't really have that. Serperior has a design that resembles ivy, but it doesn't really carry that over from its previous evolutions.
It's fine as a regular grass Pokemon, but it drops the ball when it comes to being a grass starters.
>Charizard gets wings
>Blastoise gets cannons
>Venusaur gets fat
It's as if they completely forget what evolution means when they designed the gen 1 starters.
>>25850808
softly b8ed
>>25850808
The only one that's a valid complaint by OP's logic would be Venusaur getting fat. Are you retarded?
>>25850859
softly b8ing
>>25850299
Serperior still has arms, it just lost its legs because it doesn't need them.
>>25850459
I think you mean
>Chikorita gets bigger
>Totodile gets bigger
>Cyndaquil gets bigger
It's as if they completely forget what evolution means when they designed the gen 2 starters.
>>25850527
>>25850510
fucking rekt
Pigs ARE fat, though.
>>25851008
Cyndaquil is a fire mouse that evolves into a yellow human
I feel like they were trying to pull a Marshtomp -> Swampert with Samurott, but the particular body type they went with didn't quite get the message across all too well.
>>25850299
Bulbasaur just gets bigger
Charmander grows wings
Blastoise gains weaponry
Chikorita just gets bigger
Cyndaquil just gets bigger
Totodile just gets bigger
Treecko just gets bigger
Torchic becomes a fighter
Mudkip just gets bigger
Turtwig grows a garden
Chimchar becomes a fighter
Piplup turns metallic
Snivy loses limbs

>blastoise gets cannons out of nowhere
>cyndaquil turns bipedal
>blaziken looses all facial features of a chicken
>greninja loses the cloud on its back
A lot of the starters get weird shit.
>>25851368
>Oshawott gains weaponry
It becomes an armored warrior. The shell on it's stomach was already a weapon to begin with.
>>25851409
>cyndaquil turns bipedal
Typlosion is a quadruped though. It stands up most of the time, but only runs on fours. The anime and pokedex confirms this.
>>25851409
Also, fennekin stands upright and starts wearing a skirt.
>>25850299
Oh sorry OP. I Guess GF wasn't aware that you set the standard for what evolutions should look like

Stop it, anon.
That was the first and only time I had a hard time picking one because they were all so freaking good.
