People are complaining about how the toucan is uninspired and how it's nothing but a toucan. But isn't that what gen 1 did? And why are we judging a Pokemon when we know nothing else about it besides how it looks?

Poll time: http://www.strawpoll.me/11367322/r

Also, woodpeckers and toucans are actually quite closely related (at least, more closely related to each other than any other unrelated Pokemon line, like remoras to octopuses, Japanese robins to peregrine falcons, seagulls to pelicans, etc.) They actually belong to the same order, which is more closely related than any other of the unrelated lines.

PLEASE REFER TO PICIFORMES:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piciformes

I will admit that I am a little disappointed that they missed out on having a great final evo woodpecker and replacing it with a toucan, though. That's something I can't argue against. But hey, for Gamefreak, it kills two birds with one stone.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

People dont like gen 1 for that exact reason anon

Isn't it pathetic that the series hasn't progressed in 20 years then

>>29260714
You'd think 20 years would be enough for them to understand that it's not a good idea.

Gen 1 gets love because nostalgia

The games are average and only a few good Pokémon in it
It arguably got the worst remake
I love gen 1 because it started the series but other then that its not that great
>>
I can't even think of anything in gen 1 as close to a real animal as this toucan, even Tauros looks more distinct with his lion-esque mane and multiple tails
>>
>>29261131
I don't think I give a fuck on what you think
>>
>>29260714
show me a gen 1 mon that looks exactly like its real world counterpart

not similar but with different eyes, but exactly the fucking same
>>
>>29261089
I am not hating on gen 1 at all. Why would you think that?

>>29260956
I know. As people say many, many times, /vp/ is not one person.

>>29261020
Eh, I think it's nice that they simplified a lot of the designs. It alludes to gen 1 a bit.
>>
>>29261176
>>29260714
>But isn't that what gen 1 did
>>
>>29260714
Ah, my disappointment comes from hoping for a sleek woodpecker design for the final evo.

I don't mind the toucan Pokemon, could have made a nice one stage desgin.

Yeah, I said that. But it wasn't in a negative way.
I can see why you would think that, though

Woodpeckers and toucans are more related than any other "very unrelated Pokemon family" line. PICIFORMES, YO:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piciformes


I would've liked it if the woodpecker and toucan were kept separate.

Some people (NOT ALL) are complaining about how it's noting but a toucan, but gen 1 did that and they had a lot of charm because of their simple designs, and this toucan has a lot of charm, too.

Obligatory Pokemon design opinion poll:http://www.strawpoll.me/11367322/r

There. That's a shortened version. Sorry for making the original kinda long.
>>
>>29260714
Don't know if that really applies.
I mean, does anyone genuinely love Seel and Dewgong?
>>
>>29261442
But that's a fact. He isn't implying there's anything wrong with that.
>>
>>29261236
That's a factual statement though. He wasn't attacking anything.
>>
>>29261471
I'm sure there are lots of people who do.
In any case, gen 1 Pokemon are likeable because their simplicity brings charm. At least, that's what I think.
>>
>>29260714
OP here. Thanks for being understanding, folks. Nice to see that /vp/ isn't always full of angry people.

But of course, as /vp/ always reminds everyone, /vp/ is not one person. I guess I should have seen that one coming.
>>
>>29261471
Not the biggest fan of Seel but I kinda like Dewgong.
>>
>>29261586
Seel is just straight-up doofy. Dewgong is cute, but without the silly tongue sticking out and the weird poofy cheeks.

I like Johto too but you're being retarded

> linking to the replies

I didn't answer your shitty poll.

The answer is that I like the ones that have both cartoony and realistic elements, rather than leaning too far to either side. Ones like Type: Null and Tangela.
>>
>>29261471
I kinda like them, but they're a little on the boring side when viewed in 3D. Could use some sort of visual noise along Dewgong's body.

They made the fake eyespots the real eyes, though, so I guess it still works for you.

Nah man, I just don't like the toucan. Pikipek is cool. Its evolved forms are atrocious though.
>>
>>29261866
I can agree with you on that.

But what's wrong with linking to replies or requiring a captcha?

Not him but honestly, Caterpie's back sprite really does make it no different than the real life counterpart. Especially when you consider the caterpillar's eye spots are exactly where Caterpie's unblinking eyes are

Saying the little point at the tail is unique is just as unique as Pikapek3's bill not looking like a specific toucan's
>>
>>29262161
That's a very good point, anon
