How mad would you be?
I won't because he's actuallyimpliedgoing to be fighting

I... I liked samurott's design
>Seashell pauldron Oshawott evo
Why didn't this happen??
Pretty peeved because Samurott is perfectly in line with Oshawott's theming while that happening to Popplio would not be
>>26332636
See there's nothing wrong with samurott's design by itself. It simply make no damn sense for oshawott/dewott to evolve into it.
>>26332658
>Samurott is perfectly in line with Oshawott's theming
No it's not. I won't deny the hints are there but they're sure as heck not perfect.
not as mad because the problem with Samurott is that its body is incredibly counter productive to swordsmanship
a bidpedal otter can at least still act like a clown douchebag
It should have gone
>first stage: Dewott colouration, whiskers and whole war fans stowed at this side thing but slightly more diminutive body overall, lose those black hand markings for one thing
>second stage: startings of a snout, startings of that headgear, perhaps a jaunty conch perhaps covering its ear. Then something else overall to add to samurai aesthetic, perhaps its belly looks like a cuirass
>third stage: Samurott
The canon is the exact opposite of "it just gets bigger", it's got borderline Octillery disease i.e too much progression between forms
>>26332727
The only thing out of line is jumping from an otter to a giant otter which are not the same species, with elements of a sea lion, but even then it is clearly not actually a sea lion
The real problem with Samurott is not making no sense, but being anesthetically unappealing
>>26332673
So? Dragonite looks nothing like it's pre-evo yet nobody complains.
On a lesser case, the humanoid Blaziken looks nothing like Torchic and Combusiken neither, yet he's one of the most popular starters.
>>26332591
i will never understand you faggots
you are all mad at Oshawott evolving into Samurott but you are ok with a Bug turning into a fucking Crab
>>26332797
>So? Dragonite looks nothing like it's pre-evo yet nobody complains.
Oh, you have no fucking idea
He is going to evolve into a Giant Spider, you guys.
Bug counters the grass weakness.
>>26332821
The problem is that Oshawott and Samurott both look like shit, and some people wanted Oshawott to go through some ugly duckling transformation
>>26332591
I would be happy actually.
I hate that 4 legged mustache fuck so much. I actually got a female Oshawott and went into the game blind not knowing it's final form.
to see my female starter grow a fucking mustache and beard piss me off so much. I have never started a game blind since then.
I will not choose a starter until I see the final forms of all three.
>>26332897
> mustache and beard
> not whiskers
>>26332928
it looks like a mustache and beard and it looks stupid. more so if your starter has the symbol next to its name.
>>26332993
the female gender symbol
>>26332993
I'm going to assume you believe Fennekin should be of the feminine gender and not masculine?
>>26333033
actually I would rather they have 2 appearances that match the gender -or- a neutral appearance that would go with both genders.
Not a fucking fat blue female thing with a white mustache and beard.

Lurk more.
Reminder that Masuda & Co had hit an artblock for Samurott's design, but then got inspiration upon seeing sea lions.
