>>26643134
>baby vulture using a human skull for a diaper
>like how Cubone wear's its mom's skull except its more creative and thematically appropiate
>you will never be as based as James Turner at design
Genwunners eat your heart out.
Suddenly the diaper looks less retarded than before
>literally my mom's skull
>>26643134
fuck
>>26643134
I remember when I noticed this.
Wait until OP also sees that Mandibuzz has the jaw
Which is why those genwun comparisons with Cubone's skull are fucking stupid
>>26643134
Surprised I never saw any diaper fetish shit with Vullaby.
>>26643134
So this thread is about stating the obvious? Ekans is snake backwards.
>>26643134what pokemon is it wearing?
>>26643156 go away james turner
>>26643156
James Turner is great, but you're a complete faggot.
Well I'll be fucking damned. I must be retarded for not noticing this before. I wish Mandibuzz had human skulls too.
>>26643270
Humanmon
>>26643811
Sorry that your shitmon is less creative and teeming with creepypasta theories :-)
>>26643156
But Trevenant is absolute garbage and ruins the potential Phantump's design had
>>26643932
Trevenant is cool as fuck and was my bro during X stfu
>>26643156
Oh shit he did Golurk? He's amazing!
>>26643932
This.
>>26643932
I admit that Phantump looks like something straight out of the Legend of Zelda which is cool, but what else, exactly, would you have expected it to evolve into?
>>26643156
Golurk is eternal 10/10 just because it learns Fly.
I never realised ralts had eyes under those green thing
I didn't realize Jolteon evolved from Eevee until just after X was released. I thought it was a standalone like Hawlucha/Heracross/Hitmontop.
>>26643244
You aren't looking hard enough
>>26644847
nice b8
I never realized the white dots on the orange patch were supposed to be its eyes until XY. I thought it was blind.
>>26644899
Its eyes are right there on the wings.
>>26644847
>>26644899
Pls be real
>>26644911
On the body, not the wings.
>>26643932
Trevenant leaked way before Phantump you massive cunt.
>It's an upside down rocket ship
>>26644925
They're not any dumber than OP.
>>26644911
Those are antennas, not wings. The wings are the the blue diamonds.
>>26644944
Not everyone pays attention to leaks. Some stay away on purpose as to not "ruin all the fun". Whatever that means.
>>26644958
HOLY SHIT
>>26643156
He should stick to designing Ghost types. He shat out gold twice in a row with Golurk and Trevenant. You cant not take advantage of that.
>>26643156I always loved the first 2 lines of ice cream, growing from a cupcake cone, to a sugar cone is really creative
>>26644814
>looks like something straight out of the Legend of Zelda
its literally a Lost Kid so
>>26645076
Judging by the spikes on mandibuzz, its extremely likely he also designed M-Houndoom
>>26643932
>bashing Trevenant
Kill yourself anytime, faggotron
>>26644944
Trevenant wasn't a leak, he was in a commercial or something. That's the exact opposite of a leak.
>>26643134
I never realized Barboach had eyes, I thought its mouth was its entire face.
>>26643134
>>26645190
Much better
>>26645190
Do some adjustments and that would easily pass as a yokai
>>26645190

All phenomenal except for that fucking horrible ice cream cone line
>>26645305
Chang Chang changity chang shoo bop
>>26645355
Why is it horrible?
>>26645279
That skull's dome shape looks like it'd fit a Darmanitan. The jaw area is unfortunately too crooked however.
>>26645305
It looks way cooler this way
>>26645300
Because it's a stupid design
I think I can accept Vanilite and Vanilish but Vanilluxe is really dumb looking
>>26645083
I'm glad someone else shares my opinion. Vanillite and Vanilish are both my favorite ice types.Vanilluxe is okay, but he ruined the line by taking away the natural ice monster feel
>>26645425
What makes it a stupid design?
>>26645425
And Inkay is cuter this way.

>>26645490
>>26645434
>>26645531
It looks dumb and uncreative
Vanilite is cute so it pass
Vanilish is limit but it pass because it's more monster than ice-cream
Vanilluxe is way more ice-cream than monster
>>26645562
Don't you know you're not allowed to criticize ice cream, garbage or gen 5 on this board?

It's probably meant to invoke that but the dex entry says:

I don't see the appeal. Phantump isn't too bad though.
>>26645305
Holy shit, this nigga is based
With Cinccino's min-maxed state spread geared for offense, it being a neat freak, and having it's signature involve it repeatedly slapping you with its tail, you could say it was designed for...sweeping.
Is mega Lopunny influenced by Ariana Grande?
>>26648794
Reminds me of the squirrels from Snow White a bit with the tail sweeping thing.

I never realized MEW is the same when rotated 180 degrees.
I always tought that cradily's eyes where the big yellow circles in the top of its head. And the yellow dots in the black area where fangs (it had a big mouth)
>>26649432

>>26649422
That's to make it look like a Sharpedo while it's swimming. Note how the star on its head also resembles the mark on Sharpedo's head. It helps keep Pokemon that might otherwise prey on it away by tricking them into thinking it's something much more dangerous.

>>26649432
That's really something butare Dittos just failed Mewtwos?
>>26643134
Oh fuck, I thought it was standing in the remains of it's eggshell, like togepi. I never noticed that.
I never realized Zygarde was based on the Earth badge.
That realization that Remoraid is based on a pistol, and evolves into a cannon. Taught me to give the designers more credit.
>>26648971
Newmew a bottle opener
>>26654510
But also an earring
>>26654410
I'm still pretty sure they weren't supposed to be related, but the designers decided they had too many single stage fish.
>>26654519
But also a ring
>>26654526
But also a bag
>>26654534
But also a door sign
>>26654541
But also a bicycle
>>26654544
So many convenient uses.
>>26654544
But also, its head tube is what Mewtwo's neck tube originally was. It's just replaced.
And on both cases, it's an extension to their central nervous systems and likely contains spinal cord, basically increasing Mewtwo's psychic abilities and one major reason for it to be able to use such strong psychic abilities.
>>26654561
But also a nice decoration for your wall. Over.
>>26654572
P.S.: Also, Mewtwo being able to Mega Evolve in the anime basically confirms manga canon(for movie 16, at least), in which Mewtwo was made adding human DNA to a cloned Mew - cells from Blaine's arm, to be precise.
The reason it can Mega Evolve without a human trainer and stones is because it has come to peace with its own being & identity, meaning it has a strong bond with itself - the part of it that is human already.
I wouldn't say that game canon "confirms" manga canon, too, but here's an interesting easter egg to say the very least: If you catch Mewtwo in HGSS and have it follow you, it's hard to get it used to you. But even with a freshly caught Mewtwo, if you enter Blaine's gym and talk to it there, it will always be super happy and smile brightly.
And that's not even a stretch: other following Pokémon have unique reactions depending on your location, too. Look it up.
>>26649090
this one is actually interesting
>>26645452
What The Fuck!!?
>>26646293
>all these people just now realizing the entire point of Porygon Z
>>26653909
Animals are dumb. Like really dumb.
>>26653909
Butterflies scare away birds by having scary eyes on their wings.
People in inda draw eyes on the back of their head when traversing the jungle so tigers do not attack them, because tigers always attack from the back, and will shy away from you if they think you can see them.
Stuff like this works.

>>26646009
What the fuck it looks the same upside down too
>>26659504
Because it's grasping at straws that don't even fit.
They don't look the same, they don't have the same effect, they're just both bitter and kinda good for you.
>>26659499
Maybe if they were both Bug/Fighting or something and the butterfly one had Levitate and the bee one had Poison Point (or some other stinging ability). As they stand, they no more represent Ali than Beautifly and Dustox.
>>26659499
Fly like a Butterfree, Poison Sting like a Beedrill?
>>26659626
Dustox isn't a bee, you retard.
>>26659715
No he meant Beautifly > Beedrill
Dustox > Entei
Skarmory is a swiss army knife

>care to explain?
Supposedly it's a reference to 'float like a butterfly, sting like a bee'
>>26659715
Ha, I don't know why I said that. The rest of the point still stands, though. Just because Butterfree is a butterfly and Beedrill is a bee doesn't mean they're a reference to Ali.

Why did they remove Zangoose's purple claws in later games? When I look at it compared to the new black clawed sprites it's as if it has fresh blood on it's paws. Kinda killed the duality now that they changed it.
>>26664727
Forgot pic. Best pic I could find. The purple on Seviper's body is more reddish in official sprites when I took a look. Pretty cool design choice.
>>26646293

Idiots. It's just a porygon 2 corrupted by a virus. As a matter of facts it should have a final Silph Co. evolution so it's a split evolutionary line. The virus version and and the genuine version.
>>26649111

>>26643134
I think you'd have to be pretty fucking slow in the head to not immediately realize thats a skull. Unless you're one of those people that says yes when asked "look at this picture, you see it, right?" when you really dont, or cant see whats going on in comic panels that have multiple things going on at once.

He's got a point, though. OP's gotta be really dense if he can't recognize an upside-down skull.

The main thing that I hate, is that it loses an eye when it evolves. WHY? The single eye is Dusclops thing. It's a shame, because I fucking love Phantump it's a 10/10 qt.
