The starters and Mewthree are adequate. The rest? Not so much.

The upcoming gen will probably be 50/50 when it comes to passable designs, IMO.

Also, Mewthree being a female version of Mewtwo seems obvious at this point.

Legendary Pokemon have no gender.
 
Muk is a pile of sludge (where sludge-like creatures do in fact exist in real life). Garbador is a giant pile of garbage.

At least Muk has the decency to be simple. Garbador is overdesigned (and a little bit too much like actual man-made waste/trash) in comparison.

I would venture to say that Muk is a better design, but not so much better that it should be able to escape criticism the way it does. Hell, it should get more criticism for being one of too-many Poison types in gen 1.

Gen 6 looks stunning so far, lol at the haters :D
Well, it wouldn't be any fun if people kept masturbating over every new gen. You need some dissenting opinions.

You're overly positive if you feel like everything Game Freak does is perfect and only gets better every time.

Every gen has issues. I recently beat Pokemon White, and enjoyed it. But it had issues, just like all the previous versions.

Oh and even Japan's site is keen on saying that it's a new Pokemon with "similarities from Mewtwo".

It's saying about how on the 18th, the new trailer for the movie will be posted featuring Mewtwo and Newtwo, and that a secret will be unlocked

How does a creature like this live? It's got such a scrawny frame, but huge antlers.

Seriously?

You're questioning how a POKEMON... lives?

PS: I didn't like what was pictured in the scans, but the actual artwork and the animations are so good!
 
Ah but how would it be overdesigned? It's a living pile of garbage and unlike Muk is actually helpful. One of the rare instances where a poison type is being useful to society for a change. Besides, it's an actual Totoro.

He was referring to the pokemons art design. Muk is a simple concept which is why i have no problem with it. Garbodor just doesn't have that same simplicity.

Poison type deserves a buff imo. Is a there a poison legendary? Drawing a blank.

Ahh cool!

With that said they really seem keen on saying it is not Mewtwo at all.

And I honestly don't see that as a case for Garbodor - I mean, what would you expect to a garbage bag that has ripped open to reveal its contents? Like I said, people just see "overdesigned" without thinking much of the design itself, something which early gen mons suffer from.
 
Probably because of how mass works. There are probably more extreme examples in nature.

I have no idea why anyone would question a damn pokemon of all things anyway. It's a made up creature with magical powers, it's obviously not working on the same terms as a normal animal. Which sometimes are ridiculous in their own right, and they're actually real.
 
So a week and a half at the longest until we know more.

Alright, I can live with that. Coro Coro may well spill the beans first next week anyway.

Well I don't think that the types are supposed to be inherently equal. They're sort of become that way though.

I think the poison type was supposed to be one of the weaker common types. They sort of changed their mind on that after Gen 1 though.

I guess they'll just call it perfect forme or something. Would be nice if it was just Mew's evolution though, showing how Mewtwo has genetic defects.

Yeah I can understand if that was what Game Freak intended, it just sucks that poison type is just straight up inferior. Ice is pretty bad too but at least it's decent offensively, poison is straight awful.

Well, if the legendaries of this game are based on the creatures that live in Yggdrasil, the most likely third counterpart for Xerneas and Yveltal would be a poison/dragon type pokemon.

Due to the movie title, I think this may be a Mewtwo forme, but it's possible that it's actually a different Mewtwo than the original one. I don't know how that's even possible, but let's take into consideration that the movie Mewtwo will have the Hidden Ability of Unnerve.

That would give sense in calling it "newly discovered" too.
 
Ahh cool!

No, it says a new trailer with Mewtwo and (any number of) new pokemon.

This is a Mewtwo forme, especially since they're teasing that it's similar to Mewtwo. They're just going to reveal "oh actually it's a new forme, NO ONE EXPECTED THIS!"
