Love it. This gen is really an 8 or 80 sort of deal.

 

[Volotaire]

Hey at least you put a pic in the op though.

Yep.

This pokemon looks pretty fun! A crab with boxing gloves. Good kind of dumb.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Yessssss I'm so into him.

Pallossand looks so much better in-game too.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Yes
Stufful is a plush toy and Bewear is a mascot bear.

I am hyper aware of their motifs, as they are two of my favorite Pokemon ever

I was just really pleased that it actually has a tag and I cannot wait to hear the butt tag lore

 

[Dark Cloud]

Gen 7 designs are sooooo good

Yep. I love this crab and the messed up eye lol

 

[shiftplusone]

Gutter Trash.

Fair enough

 

[JordanKZ]

Okay, that's kind of awesome.

 

[Charlie0108]

Gen VII's designs are so much fun

 

[Tizoc]

I like the cut of this crustacean's jib.

 

[j.rob]

Yo I like it.

 

[Kid Ska]

"Well these claws ain't just fer attracting mates."

Oh I guess now I need one of my team to name Mr. Krabs.

 

[specdot]

Yo spoilers fam. I'm outraged. These threads need to stop.

Spoiler

why isn't it a water type as well?

 

[Diprosalic]

Better than that bear. And a crab not being water type is interesting.

I love how it's boxer inspired. A little surprised it's not Fighting/Water.

you know there are crabs that barely go into water.

Water X fighting is a good combo

it's just fighting.

Palossand controls human adults, making them build a sand castle that provides camouflage and also raises its defensive abilities.

Palossand loves the vitality of Pokémon and drags small Pokémon into its body so it can steal their life force. Its sandy vortex swallows them up in a heartbeat! Pokémon dragged into Palossand leave traces of their ill will behind. It’s thought that this negative energy may be the starting point of new Sandygast...

This is such a fucking dark description....

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Names really suck this gen. Like this one tho.

 

[Falchion]

Eh, probably won't be letting this one join my team.

 

[Aerocia]

I like the bruise on the eye

Looks like a lazy eye.

 

[diaspora]

I'm naming mine Danny Rand.

 

[Griss]

Not a huge fan of the colours, but I love the idea and I love the fact that it's not a water type.

 

[Juanfp]

Only fighting? No water?

 

[Omega Kirby]

its got donald trump hair

 

[Whompa02]

The name is pretty uninspired but the design is at least not horrible.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Looks cray

 

[Neoxon]

Not a bad design, actually.

 

[FTF]

Yep.

This pokemon looks pretty fun! A crab with boxing gloves. Good kind of dumb.

Yeah a decent design.

Though now my post looks like I'm just being an ass when it was actually a response in the other thread lol

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Surprised Crabrawler isn't water/fighting. It looks like it's supposed make fun of cartoony boxers.

 

[Tusk]

I love that the bear has a little tag on its butt. Little plush Pokemon

 

[Crocodile]

Why is it not Water/Fighting? No Water type on this feels so off-putting :/

 

[Illucio]

Oh look it's the hair style every millennium has ever.

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

The fact that it's just Fighting type makes me like it more, though I'm guessing it's a Pokemon without any evolutions.

 

[kuroneko0509]

This is such a fucking dark description....

poor Pikachu

 

[Fou-Lu]

This is such a fucking dark description....

Jesus.

 

[Fulminator]

gen 7 still going strong

great pokemon lol, just wish it was water/fighting

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Stuffel arm flail too cute.

 

[shiftplusone]

This is such a fucking dark description....

Comic Mischief!

 

[Sesha]

Looks like it's based on a mantis shrimp, unless there's some badass crab species I'm not aware of.

 

[Coffee Dog]

crab is hilarious with his messed up eye.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Why isn't this thing Fighting/Dragon?

 

[Kyrios]

I really like it!

 

[PSqueak]

I love that the bear has a little tag on its butt. Little plush Pokemon

Same!

Crabrawler is hilarious, his expression rules.

 

[Peléo]

Sand Castle Pokemon got even cooler by the animation, one of my favourite designs so far. Crabrawler is also pretty cool, surprised it isn't fighting/water though. Hate stufful.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Fair enough

Oh no not at all trying to come off like a jerk, sorry there

But yeah I'm actually utterly in love with both of them :V

Why isn't Crabrawler Water? I don't think another Water/Fighting would have been unwelcome.

Also I do have to say I'm not the biggest fan of the name Crabrawler. Not because it's too obvious, but because it doesn't roll off the tongue too well imo. Something about how the sounds "crabraw" come out of my mouth.

I think maybe Craboxer would have been better :B

 

[SliceSabre]

poor Pikachu

Its amusing then you realize you are actually watching a Pikachu die.

 

[Dark_3nergy]

Feels inspired by Lil Mac with how he puts up his claws to duke it out in a battle.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Looks like it's based on a mantis shrimp, unless there's some badass crab species I'm not aware of.

More like a coconut crab.

 

[SlaughterX]

That shit Cra....brawler

 

[Charlie0108]

I love the sandcastle Pokemon. Great lore and great in game models.

 

[Aesnath]

"Well these claws ain't just fer attracting mates."

HA! Be my friend!

He's got..."big, meaty claws"

I'm honestly not sure I like the design though. Interesting that it isn't water type, not that the world needs more water/fighting or anything.

 

[Manu]

You know, I was trying to put my finger on why so many of these new pokemon designs feel off to me. I'm not a genwunner or anything, I'm talking this latest gen specifically. I think it's the fact that they look like they were designed in a way that allows to make low poly 3D models of them. Whenever I see a new pokemon I feel like the design philosophy behind it was "will it look good enough on the 3Ds screen?".

EDIT: Fuck me, post 100.
