Why are Johtomons so weird and lacking in identity?

The fuck is this?

I don't understand what that picture is trying to convey

>Igglybuff
Should be Kanto
>Wobbuffet
Should be Sinnoh
>Forretress
Should be Unova
>Xatu
Should be Hoenn
>>
>>26466797
I only recently found out Wobuffet wasn't a gen 3 mon
>>
I THOUGHT PHANPHY WAS A HOENNMON FOR SO MANY YEARS
>>
>>26466797
I completely disagree with this.

Every single gen has it's own style, which helps you remember which Pokemon are in which Gen.

Gen 2 happens to be my favorite style.

Amazing.

>>26466797
This is what I like about Johto though. It feels like a big melting pot of Pokemon
>>
>>26466865
I'd train these.
Did they make one for 5 and 6?
>>
>>26466847
so crobat is more similar to cyndaquil than it is to gliscor?
>>
I feel like Johto does have a unique and identifiable style. They have a certain simple "softness" even the rugged-looking ones, like Donphan and Skarmory are kind of quaint.
>>
>>26466886
It's certainly a very...round generation.
>>
>>26466797
All the quirky mons are what make me love Johto though.
>>
>>26466797
What the actual fuck are you talking about?

This is retarded.

Also, most Johto Pokémon were actually designed for Gen 1, but cut due to size restraints.

But I don't feel like making excuses for OP's retardation.

I feel Johto has the most distinct style for reasons like >>26466886 says, there's this softness behind pretty much all of them.

It is the cutest region.
>>
>>26466825
>>26466826

Looks like it's trying to sort Johto Pokemon into other regions by their designs, implying that Johto as a whole has little tangible identity to its designs.
>>
>>26466865

>Gen 4

Sinnoh isn't fat or spherical!

It's just

>Magmortar
>Electivire
>Rhyperior
>Lickilicky
>Tangrowth
>Purugly
>Hippowdon
>Togekiss
>Abomasnow
>Honchkrow
>Torterra
>Bronzong

I think now I understand why Gen 4 evos get so much hate.
>>
>>26466797
Jesus OP you could have at least added the Johto mon who were supposed to actually be in Kanto to the Kanto section. Lazy
>>
Corsola should be from kalos with binacle
>>
>>26466797
>miltank is in it twice
>>
>>26466886
It's supposed to be a comfy rural region instead of a heavily developed region like Kanto.
>>
>>26466865

I recognize most of the parts on the gen 1 and 2 mons. What are 3 and 4 though?
>>
>>26466797
lolwut
>>
>>26466954
If I'm being honest, I love the Cross Evos, but aside from them, Sinnoh has such a trash dex. If you look at DP's dex you can't get 17 of the cross evos in game before going into late Postgame, and like nobody shows them off so how are you supposed to know that they can evolve while also being the most obscure ways. Out of the 11 you can get in the dex, 7 of them are baby evolutions
>>
>>26466797
The Pokemon that you've sorted into Sinnoh look absolutely nothing like Sinnoh Pokemon.

In fact, the only dex designs that I'd say have any distinct identity at all are Kanto, Hoenn and Unova but even those can largely fit into other regions.
>>
>>26466865
>>26466916
Wasn't there a version that had a proper gen V (and maybe VI?) design? If there was pls gib I wanna make a dumb joke but I don't wanna leave the gen V slot blank to do it
>>
>>26466797
They were extensions of the first Dex. I like to view Johto and Kanto as one whole big thing. New evos and pre evos and the regions are right next to each other. Plus wasn't Johto basically witheld content to the original game, as awesome as it was by itself?
>>
Gen II Pokemon are the worst. Mostly round blobs, lots of abstract designs and few realistic ones comapred to Gen I, lots of useless single stage mon and starters are definition of boring "it just got bigger" evolutions.
>>
>>26466833
There are so many Gen 2 mons I thought were gen 3. I never got to play GS as a kid so I thought they were introduced in 3. My living dex has been a learning experience.
