Anyone else feel like the legendary from pokemon sun is too similar to Pyroar. Not saying they "reskinned" on purpose but it looks like one to me. Similar porportions just different color schemes
Not really. Its a lion.
It's a lion
>>26253465
I've never really had it click before, but I think I really do love when normal Pokemon look more like animals while legendary Pokemon look like more fantastical beasts.
>>26253465
They're both lions of course, but I would chalk it up to a funny coincidence that the box legends for SuMo are both similar to Pokemon introduced just last gen.
>>26253465
Sun = Pyroar
Moon = Noivern
>>26253465
The legendary is Mega Pyroar obviously.
>>26253605
It shows that they're running out of ideas. The whole Sun/Moon duality was already done with Cresselia and Giratina (and arguably Ho-oh/Lugia).
>>26253741
>he whole Sun/Moon duality was already done with Cresselia and Giratina
Uh... no. I think at best there was a duality between Cresselia and Darkrai where Cresselia was a crescent/full moon in general and Darkrai was a new moon but who even knows if that's what they were going for and they are otherwise totally unrelated in every respect. Pokemon has never done sun/moon except with Solrock and Lunatone
>>26253741
>Giratina
>having anything to do with the sun
Are you some kind of retard?
>>26253648
this, i thought they were just showcasing the megas of pyroar and noivern in the video, could be true and we havent even seen the proper legendaries yet
>>26253465
Solgaleo is more like white lion but yeah the fact that they decided to go for the fire lion again was kinda lame
Guys what if, what if, Solgaleo and Lunaala are a Pyroar and a Noivern that were made super cool by Arceus to protect Alola
we megaman now
>>26253793
>Pokemon has never done sun/moon except with Solrock and Lunatone
Umbreon/Espeon?
>>26253793
>Cresselia and darkrai unrelated
Darkrai was the new moon and nightmares while cresselia is full moon and pleasant dreams
>>26253741
Hwhat?
>>26253822
>being this retarded
>>26253817
This might be shocking to you, butthe moon reflects the sun
There's only so many ways you can do a lion. Sun legendary looks fantastic regardless.
>>26253879
Espeon doesn't really have a connection to sunlight besides its evolution method
>>26253911
Giratina's whole thing is nightmare realms and alternate dimensions
it doesn't have anything to do with the moon
>>26253911
What are you even talking about?
>>26253847
do we actually know that it's a fire type? we only assume it is because the sun is fire
>Pyroar being a regular lion
>Solgaleo being a chimera
>>26253859
>mm
Voltron, GaoGaiGar and pretty sure there were other anime'ls with giant mecha lions. Mega man didn't invent them.
When I was a wee lad, I thought that Ho-Oh was an evolution of Fearow.
>What is digimon dawn
>>26253741
Actually Cresselia and Giratina are based on the red oni and blue oni from Japanese folklore.
>>26253963
well what do you think... it's oblviously going to be Light type!
>>26254119
Apollomon was pretty bro in Digimon Xros Wars.
Sun legendary is a reincarnated Pyroar
Moon legendary is a reincarnated Noivern
>>26254119
Lions have been associated with the sun for a long ass time dude.
>>26253465
Well it wouldn't be the first lion.
>also
the legendary dogs are jolteon, flareon and vaporeon revived
>>26253925
It is the Sun Pokemon too.
>>26253741
>The whole Sun/Moon duality was already done with Cresselia and Giratina
New meme ladies and gentlemen.
>>26255859
>there will never be equivalents for the other eons
>>26253741
>The whole Sun/Moon duality was already done with Cresselia and Giratina (and arguably Ho-oh/Lugia)
kek
Both are lions, no wonder they're a little similar, but they have distinctly different themeings.
>>26255877
Nothing in it's design screams "sun". It's literally just a purple cat.
>>26256660
psychic powers are inherited from the sun
>>26253465
It's the king of the lions for sure.
>>26253465
No, maybe they did it on purpose. Maybe they've planned something very interesting for us to find out.
The mouth reminds me of an earlier legendary
