Looks like they're to the point where they take a generic animal and throw colored shapes on them. Like a toddler drawing on the wall.

looks like you get attacked by some spearow in the beginning and tapu koko saves you



Evolution is now a ball of energy that descends from the sky

HE'S PERF

YES!
I will catch one and name him Sonic. I do hope he gets an evolution. It sucks how Pikachu is the only electric rodent that evolves. Like, I love me my Pika and Rai but I'd like a chnage, I'd like at least one gens Pikachu rip-off to evolve. I mean, yeah, Marril kinda counts, but I mean electric type clearly meant to evoke "it's Pikachu!".
 
I like them, dunno about that fish though.

I am fully behind our new Pika clone.

Man I don't know. Emolga has been the peak for me.

He is cute though but, I don't know.

Doubt he will have an evolution, since he is the same slot, Minun/Pusle, Pachiritsu, Emolga and Dedenne are in as the "New electric mouse."

yeah like that's gonna happen, one of GF biggest regret is Raichu and they don't want that to ever happen again

WOW those look horrible, it is a unwritten rule that the newest gen has to be the ugliest it seems.

Diamond and Pearl gen looking like masterpieces compared to this shit

But why not? These Pikachu rip-offs aren't anywhere near as popular as Pikachu and are forgettable and dime a dozen (anyone remember or care about the squirrel?). They aren't going to make Pikachu 2.0 and launch another multimillion dollar marketting success off of Sonichu here, so why not let him evolve so he becomes a Pokémon people will get attached to and grow with like the starters?

Tapu Koko looks fucking awesome, and the rest are mostly just okay. Bruxish has got to be one of the ugliest pokemon ever tho.. gross

Dragon, final electric bug evo, Pikaclone and Cutiefly are cool.

Tapu Koko is kinda meh. The fish and Charjabug are terrible.

I think they already know it won't. I mean a lot of Not-Xs tend to not be as popular as the original. So I really don't think they care.

I'm wondering the logic behind normal / dragon or normal / whatever, frankly. Like Diggersby and Pryroar last gen. I dont get it.

Really digging all of these except the one patterned after the Hawaiian state fish which I'm still a little on the fence about. I like the tie in and I like the fish irl, so the design will probably grow on me.

What the hell? This gen has the best designs in several generations. I never thought I would think a mosquito is cute.

That's not a mosquito, it's a bee fly. They are super cute in real life too.

you clearly dont know how much they use each pikachu clone each gen right? like they get a bunch of marketing and it not evolving means they don't have to risk on which form will get more popular and ends out to be easier in the long run also

(anyone remember or care about the squirrel?)

clearly you don't cause every one went nuts when it turned out to be the surprise sleeper of pokemon worlds 2014 where it was part of the winning team

Raichu is baller af, dunno why GameFreak regrets him.

because pikachu not being the final evo limits what they can do with it

I'm wondering the logic behind normal / dragon or normal / whatever, frankly. Like Diggersby and Pryroar last gen. I dont get it.

Pryroar is because it has alot of sound themed attacks (including it's signature move noble roar) and they are all usually normal type, so it's to give him some stabs as for Diggersby? i don't know probably same reason as Bibarel, usually early game mons have normal type

I honestly really like all of these designs. I will say Tapu Koko or w/e screams X/Y generation design to me. The rest are a lot of fun.
