ITT: Pokemon designs that aren't great, but aren't absolute shit like some may say
Pic related, I think Chesnaught would be one of the favored Gen 6 Pokemon if it just had a decent color scheme
>>26664332
I want to hug Chesnaught.
Chesnaught is cool. the Hunch over looks is the problem.
I could really give chesnaught a shot if it didnt have a beard and his back wasnt so big.
Or let the back be big, but still resemble its prevos a little bit.
>>26664375
>didn't have a beard
But anon, that's the best part
Yah he's pretty cool. I like to imagine that a small trainer could hide in his armor.
>>26664332
It needs better arms and needs to actually look like a knight.
>there are people who honestly think that if Venusaur and Chestnaught replaced eachother in when they appeared, Venusaur wouldn't be the absolute most disliked Pokémon of all time and Chestnaught wouldn't constantly be refered to every time somebody wants to bring up how badass grass type is
>>26664332
>if it just had a decent color scheme
Like its shiny?
>>26664596
Seriously, what the fuck GF?
>>26664596
What the fuck, that's the shiny? That's practically Quilladin's color scheme.
>>26664678
>>26664665
Makes me think there where some wires crossed in the finalization stages.

The only problem is the stance for me. The splayed out arms just doesn't look like a battle ready pose
Whenever they do the eventual mega GF should go full paladin and giveherand bigass log warclub and an also bigass oak shield
>>26664720
You may not care for it, but it certainly fits better with the previous stages.
>>26664332
What the fuck is that supposed to be?
>>26664332
The only things that bug me are the white arms and random red trim. Should have kept the red on the quills or tail.
>>26664692
All this time and people still don't know how chestnuts work?
>>26664332
Chesnaught is afucking bro
>>26664356
I like the hunch. I really don't want to see him look more elegant or 'noble'.
>>26664433
His arms are pretty awkward looking. I wish he was holding part of his Quilladin shell as a shield tho.
Spiky shield really helps his design, I have no idea why they didn't incorporate parts of that visually.
>>26664596
Pretty good apart from the orange.
>>26664332
oh shit he's chesnaught like chesnut and juggernaught
>:0
>>26664332
I don't understand his name. How did they come up with that name?
>>26665458
Juggernaut is not spelled that way.
>>26664332
>hunchback
>terrible colour scheme
>no joints
>banana arms
>chest hair & beard
>bald
>tendrils for claws
Yeah no, you could've given it Serperior's colour scheme and it still would've been disliked
The only cool design elements it has imo are the spiked carapace and segmented tail. Not to mention it was released in the same generation as the most popular starter pokemon ever, it was never really going to stand out.
>>26665444
It's basically Dreadnought/Juggernaut + Chestnut.
>>26665474
it is in Japanese though. Jeez, read a book once in a while.
>>26664375
wait that a beard? always though it was chest hair
>tfw desperately want to like chesnaught
>constantly go from thinking it can't be that bad to despising it
>can't pinpoint exactly what makes me wanna throw it in the trash even after 3 years
>>26665511
No, neither "Chesnaught" nor the word juggernaut translate to "naught" in English. Get your shit straight. I'm confused because they came up with "naught" purely because it sounds cool and not because it has any basis in any English root word. Also, both "juggernaut" and "dreadnought" are French.
>>26665544
I think he's referring to the spikes literally on the face, an not on the chest
>>26664596
I for one like the shiny coloration, probably due to bias but whatever, they could have made it that putrid green.

It saddens me that people hate Chesnaught's design, when something as disgustingly ugly as Greninja became the most overrated Pokémon in the last 5 years
>>26667318
Shit taste detected.
Chesnaught is objectively a terrible pokemon in every aspect, and you should feel bad for preferring something so disgusting over based Greninja.
>>26664720
I agree. The burgundy and that shade of green do not match with the rest of line.
it's almost as ugly as greninja. how could GF fail 2/3 starter evolution lines?
>>26665477
>bald
Never see it as it. Fuck.
>>26664332
At least it's not Lucario.
>>26667355
>based Greninja
Please stop shitting up every thread, or put on a trip so I can filter you.
>>26667730
Can I join the evading Greninja bandwagon?
