So what do you think the order of this totem pole is, /vp/?

>>29482901
Tapu fini should probably be facing forward for symmetry's sake, but nice nonetheless

>>29482901

There is no totem pole. The Tapus are Tikis, not totems. Totems are Native American, not Hawaiian.

>>29483123
Huh. Didn't know that. Noted

>>29483123
Gonna have to agree with this.
Especially how their Z-move justifies how they're all head (except for the swordfish)

Also, apparently Tapu Lele is a butterfly instead of a cephalopod. That really surprised me.

Butterfly.

The Japanese trailer shows how its 2 biggest curly hair bits stick up, resembling antennae, and as it goes in its shell, its tail pops out at the bottom, which is curled and very much resembles a lepidopteran proboscis. And those things on its back resemble small butterfly wings.

Also, the official website description say that it distributes scales, and all butterflies have scales on their wings.

Still, everyone thought they where gonna have a totem thing going for them, since you know, totem Pokemon and all that. I thought myself it was weird when in the thread OPs pic was made it was strange

Butterfly, anon. The Japanese trailer shows them all "closed".

It looks like a butterfly's face.

>psychic dresses up as a bug
some kind of symbolism here

>>29484322

Tapu Koko is Electric and dresses up as a bird

>>29484350
So Bug, Flying, Normal, and ... they mimic while true inside self is different type.

>>29484430
The Water type tapu is still an aquatic creature

your pattern is dumb

>>29484456
It also doesn't have an ability that is auto-water in favor of auto-fairy. Still doesn't really suggest anything important though.

>>29483189
Sauce on Fini not being a head

>>29484897
What source is there?

I'm not referring to an in-game thing or whatever; It's the entire swordfish (except the tail), not just the head

omg lol you're right why did i never think of that im so fuckin dumb omg

>>29483189
How it it a butterfly?

>>29483123
Jesus Christ, I'm retarded. Since Tapu Koko was revealed I've been thinking about this all wrong, and it's sad that it's true of most of the internet, as well.

>>29485227
Wait, do they all get into a different place on the energy monster?

>>29488455
It has the antenna, tiny wings, and proboscis. Its name lele translates to fly and by extension butterfly. The description also mentions scales like other moth/ butterfly mons.
On a meme level, it's probably the cruelest tapu and Hawaiian caterpillars are all little demon lords.

Just read the thread. We were mistaken saying it's a cephalopod but instead it's a butterfly. With the scales and what not plus the enclosed look.
