When sandygast and pallosand were revealed, everyone hatess them for "just being sandcastles", yet now we have this guy who is just an anchor, someone explain this
>>
>>29293581
Sandcastles are illegal and anchors are not\
what's there to understand?
>>
Because toucan and a few others overshadowed it
If toucan didn't exist this retarded anchor would've been the spotlight
>>
>>29293581
Pallosand looks silly while this one looks more serious. It's as simple as that.
Same reason people shit one Klefki but give Aegislash a pass.
>>
Different demographics, OP.

I love the anchor AND the sandcastles.
Another part of /vp/ hates both.

That's it.
>>
>>29293581
It's utter garbage and has no place in a quality pokemon game. There I explained it.
>>
>>29293581
Eh, it looks like an alolan aegislash so it doesn't come out as shocking.
>>
>>29293581
Anchors are MANLY.
Sandcastles are babby shit.

/vp/ has some serious security issues.
>>
>>29293581
If this thing is human-sized or larger it would actually be pretty terrifying.
>>
>>29293581
It's good to have another ghost/steel type pokemon. Anchorbro is cool too, got a slot on my team the second I saw it.
>>
>>29293581
>just an anchor
No, it's an anchor, a wheel, and a compass. It's a triple threat and cool as fuck.
>>
>>29293581
This is a brilliant design. Using the negative space of the seaweed to make teeth is inspired. And it's not just an anchor to begin with, it's seaweed that's binding an anchor and ship's wheel together.

If it was really just a plane jane anchor with a face drawn on it you'd have a point, but it doesn't, and you don't.
>>
>>29293581
Anchormon is awesome, definitely going on my team. I just hope it's water/ghost.
>>
>>29293694
>anon has never seen a ship before.
>>
>>29293581
It is literally because they look silly and /vp/ has a hardon for serious looking Pokemon. It's the same reason that people hate Dragonite, fat barney dinosaur instead of what should have been a badass dragon.
>>
>>29293668
kill yourself, dude.
>>
>>29293581
>its an anchor, a propeller hub, a compass, and a steering wheel all at once.

As a naval architect, I feel like it's my spiritmon.
>>
>>29293709
Or maybe... Ghost/Water. Since it's an anchor

Here I have a pokemon that you're gonna love
>>
>>29293581

What's their to be upset about?

Imagine going diving in a dark old ship and this nigga is watching you. It's awesome and literally how object mons should be made.
>>
>>29293615
Fpbp
>>
>>29293826
I'd catch it

How about there isnt anything wrong with most of the object pokemon. i cant believe im sayin this.

I'd love a chairmon if it were a comfy couch

then we'd be one step closer to having a mansion team
>>
>>29293806
It has to be steel/ghost, its a fucking metal anchor.
>>
>>29293581
>anchor pokemon with elements of seaweed, a ship's wheel, a compass, and a propeller
>sandygast and pallosand are sandcastles with shells and a spade
Because anchormon actually looks like some thought has been put into its design
>>
>>29293826
Pretty good start, now you just gotta modify a real organism to be chair-like so it looks natural. I'd suggest a fungus. Every single species of those things is hella weird.
>>
>>29293806
imo it'll be Ghost/Steel and the evolved sea urchin will be Poison/Steel because they can't actually swim properly.
>>
Helmanchor is intriguing, Palossand is not
>>
>>29293581
>People don't like Palossand
Who knew /vp/ had such shit taste
I bet you don't even understand why its shiny variant is so awesome
>>
I like both, though my favorite Pokemon from gen 1 was Voltorb so I can be a little biased.
>>
>literally my mom's anchor

it doesn't even have a real face. Like, this is reaching a new low in lazy design. It's like if Voltorb was just a pokeball.
>>
It hasn't disappointed anyone so the mass haven't noticed it yet.

I want to know more about it.

People who hate Objectmons should really just get over themselves. It's a Japanese franchise, there are going to be monsters that are just animated objects. It's just a cultural thing, there's no need to get so bent out of shape over it.
>>
>>29293622
I generally like "it's just an object" mons, but Pallosand is too stupid even for me. Keyring, chandelier, anchor, whatever. Those are all fine. But a sand castle is where the line is crossed. Any time it moves it should fall apart on itself. Which now that I think about it, would actually be pretty cool if after any attack it turned into a pile of sand and then reformed.

>>29294662
>not sure if baiting or legitimately too retarded to notice that the compass and the other side make the eyes, and the seaweed makes a smile
>>
Pallosand and sandy are based on something associated with kids and are seen as immature and goofy.

Anchorbro looks more serious/intimidating and is reminiscent of haunted ships/flying dutchmen, so it is seen as more mature and easier to associate with being 'cool'.

>Chair steel/ghost that poses as a chair and then saps the life force of people who sit in it
>Or a grass/dark monster plant that poses as a bean bag chair in order to catch prey

Could be cool

First thing I thought of was this.

>>29294930
It's a ghost whose spirit is capable of keeping the sand together. I don't see how this is hard to really understand. The body and sand basically flows to its will or whatever.

Meh, Sandygast's shiny more than makes it up for me. It looks good and references Hawaii having a few black sand beaches. 10/10.

Anchors aren't well known for their graceful swimming skills. They just sink.
>>
>>29295286

And?
>>
>>29295359
We've had fish that aren't Water-type. Why does an anchor have to be Water-type?
>>
>>29293581
i like it, better than my moms toucan

you think I do not hate it?

SM has yet to show me a legitimate ghost.
a sand castle, anchor and a dancing bird
those are the shittiest excuse for ghost I can think of.

the cloth ghost disguised as Pikachu is cute and creepy enough to get a pass but it is still far from original.

Ghost types got screwed on this new Gen
a fucking dancing bird fuck you GF !!
>>
>>29295918
Literally all gen 7 ghost types other then the bird are awesome, just accept you have shitty taste.

Ehh it works as a standard rpg monster. Pirates, sailors, sunk ghost ships and all that. Same with cursed swords, possessed lamps/candles, robots and saucers made of magnets and toxic slimes.

A sand castle, an ice-cream, a trash bag and baby's boo boo keys are playground tier.
>>
>>29293826
Needs a toilet evolution.
>>
>>29293581
that design is better. it's simple as that you retard

The normies haven't seen it yet.
>>
>>29295245
look at mr. ghost expert over here

ghosts can't even move through sand you stupid idiot
>>
>>29296570
And you've studied spoops extensively I assume?
>>
>>29296630
I post on >>>/x/, so yes
>>
>>29293581
it just genuinely looks cooler and better. id argue that the people who shat on sandyghast and palossand are shitting on this, too, though, and they're not the same demographic as people who like either of them. people who shit on things just love to shit on things for the sake of it, everyone else is okay with the designs. it's either you're an edgelord or you're just calmly enjoying yourself. there is no inbetween. you either irrationally hate it or you move on with your life. it's not bad just because it doesn't meet your arbitrary standards.
>>
>>29295269
What the fuck bro? We were having a dumb thread until you posted a fantastic evolutionary line.

I work for GF. You're hired!
>>
>>29293581
Hate the colours

Too bright to be debris from a sunken ship and too varied to be a consistent creature

Also the seaweed is modelled terribly and obscures a lot of the "face"

Could be saved by animation but one of the shittest for me, coming from someone who loves aegislash
>>
>>29293581
I like it, reminds me of Bronzong.

>>29297548
Holy fuck you guys made it awesome

This shows that no Pokemon is a bad concept, its just the execution
>>
>>29293826
Is that a "chair"izard?
>>
>>29293581
It's this game version of Claydol / Sigilyph / Cofagrigus etc. More interesting than an actual cartoon sand castle.

Only design flaw is the anchor being glued on the wrong side but I guss this Pokemon has an opened eye on each side so...
>>
>>29294873
Third yokai is part of the bamboo UB concept which is probably the one I like the most as Pokemon design, origami thing is okay too like UB Beauty, rest are utter garbage.
