People always say that the Generation 4 Evolutions are ugly and unnecessary but I'd like a more concrete polling of /vp/'s view on the matter.
Rate how much you like each individual evolution
make a survey monkey or google form it won't kill you

>>29560602
This but actually include all of them, you skipped the ones that aren't all lumped in the end of the dex, specifically Roserade, Ambipom, Honchkrow, Mismagius. That being said I'll rate them without using the pic because editing pics in paint like that is gay and only for faggots.
Roserade - 5/5
Ambipom - 3/5
Honchkrow - 4/5
Mismagius - 2/5
Weavile - 4/5
Magnezone - 4/5
Lickilicky - 2/5

>>29560585
Here, I rated them.
in my opinon
5 is a perfect progression from the previous, 4 is pretty good, anything below is unneccesary and/or shit
also roserade 5/5, honchkrow 2/5, mismagius 4/5
Pretty good overall.I really hope Electabuzz gets another evolution someday, but it'll never happen.;_;
>>29560585
>>29560585
>>29560585
Ambipom: 0 Second worst Pokemon ever. A true abomination.
Roserad: 3
Honchkrow: 2
Mismagius: 3
I like more than I dislike.
Plus it gave us Gliscor, Weavile and Electivire so it was all worth it.
They're better than Mega Evolutions, or nothing at all.
>>29560921
Oh shit yeah, you forgot heaps OP.
Roserade - 1/5
Honchkrow - 2/5
Ambipom - 1/5
Mismagius - 3/5
>All these people who dont like frosslass
Garbage taste guys
Not just gen-4, I have an image from a while back where we had a thread where we rated ALL cross-gen evos.
Porygon-Z is best from gen-4, by the way.

>>29561135
I didn't think Steelix, Gliscor, Yanmega, Electivire or Kingdra were all that much better than their previous forms, though. I kinda like regular Elctabuzz better than Electivire. Same for Seadra, Misdreavus and Yanma.

For the ones you missed:

Honchkrow: 4/5
Mismagius: 4/5
>people ranking electivire 1/5
oh come the fuck on. it's not a 1/5. stop pretending it's as bad as magmortar. the design and evolution makes sense.
>>29560585
>>29560585
These evolutions are only the ones after Lucario, there were a few before this group in the pokedex
They were mostly okay. Ambipom's the shittiest one out of all of them, though.
>>29561066
I'd move most of the ones in average to good or even great desu, except Rhyperior and Probopass.
I was a little conflicted over some of the ones I put in the average tier. Some are so boring or unnecessary that I was tempted to put them in the bad category. Was Slowking really needed? I fail to see what it really adds. Same goes for Roserade, Blissey and Dusknoir.
And then Leafeon and Glaceon are so boring it's not funny. Creative juices were running low when those two were designed.
>>29560585
>Ambipom-4/5
>Roserade-4/5

A lot of designs have grown on me over the years, but fuck Rhyperior
>>29561770
>Steelix in top tier
>Roserade and Tangrowth in bad tier
>FUCKING Sylveon in trash tier
nigga do you even play this game?
>>29560585
I understand that some of them are supposed to look like monsters, so I didn't score them based on the type of designs I like but rather on it's concept overall.
I like all of these Pokemon except Weavile, Magmortar and Ambipom (I'm meh to them) and I think they all are equal to, or improve their old forms' designs. (Except Weavile and Ambipom.) Even if Gen IV overdid it a bit with the cross-gen evolutions, I loved them.
Please Gen VIII, please give us cross-gen evolutions that aren't just for Eevee.
>>29560585
All great evolutions except Magmortar and Rhyperior. At least Magmortar has real-life influences that aren't insane.
Rhyperior looks dumpy and has those ugly orange plates. It wrecked the Rhydon line.
I guess I don't like most of them but Dusknoir alone makes them all more than worth it.
Even of the ones I don't really like, they are pretty much on par with the previous forms except Gallade. A lot of improvements all around.
I got out of Pokemon for a bit just before Gen IV and ended up disliking many of the designs at the time. Nowadays, I like some of them a bit more. None of them are evolutions of Pokemon I ever particularly cared about, though.
>>29562129
You'd think having Steelix in top tier would make it pretty clear that I'm only talking about aesthetics, here, but I guess I should cater to retards like yourself.
I'll use a Sylveon on competitive teams, but it still looks like trash.
Whether or not you think the gen 4 evolutions are good, they're at least better than the alolan forms, right?
>>29560585
Here's mine. Magmortar seems to get a lot of hate, but I personally think it's one of the best Gen IV evos. Dusknoir's also one that I've seen mixed opinions on, but I've always liked it.maybe it's because I'm an explorers fag, but who cares?
>>29562631
Oh, shit, I'm retarded. Forgot the image.
These Pokemon aren't bad for the most part! I wish I could rate Leafeon and Glaceon higher because I like their design for the most part, but in terms of stats and moves and such, I'm not a fan.
>>29560585
>>29561217
>Perfect taste
Are you me?
perfect taste incoming
>>29560585
Honestly, after MEGAS and ULTRA BEASTS, gen4 are a godsend in terms o design, since they aren't overdesigned on purpose like megas or just straight up don't fucking look like pokemon like UBs
Jesus Christ, how the fuck did Gen IV manage to fix so many shitty Pokemon and fix many of Pokemons most retarded mechanics but make Sinnoh boring as fuck?
>>29562924
How do you say that after the Godtier design that is M-Steelix and M-Abomasnow
>>29562850

Update because i can't read a thread and OP is stupid.
>>29562953
>since they aren't overdesigned on purpose like megas
There a good megas design, but 90% of them is overdesigned trash, 9% are good but not as good as the original and 1% are superior to the original.
None of them are that bad save for maybe lillicky. I don't get the hate for Electivire and magmortar at all though, I quite like them
I'm not a fan of cross-gen evolutions in general, but if they have to exist, at least take subpar designs and make them likable; e.g. surgery for Piloswine's mile-high forehead, and an alternative for Glalie's generic hockey mask head.
>>29560585
You better be compiling the results of this thread, OP. I'm interested in the outcome as well.
Mismagius - 4/5
Ambipom - 3/5

Probopass: 0/5
Dusknoir: 4/5
Froslass: 5/5
Gameplay.wise, I like them all, except Probopass.
To be honest, the only ones I wish didn't exist are Magmortar and Probopass.
Rhyperior is horrible, but not that horrible.
I split the ratings in two, one for how much I like them as Pokémon and another for how well they improved upon their pre-evolution. For example, Probopass looks really stupid to me, but I think it's a creative and inspired evolution.

But the greatest is Frosslass
yes
>>29560585
Probopass, Magnezone, Rhyperior and Tangrowth really are butt ugly. Magmortar gets a pass because it's only as ugly as Magmar. Lickilicky is the only truly unnecessary one.
Everyone else is justified
What sort of normie sites have been visiting? Everyone loves the Gen 4 evolutions.

>>29560585
you're kind of ignoring that it's also a relative issue. I don't like Lickilicky but I'd still call Lickilicky an improvement over Lickitung.
Weavile was a much needed upgrade to Sneasle but I think it looks dumb
Magnezone took some time to grow on me but I dig it
Rhyperior, Electivire and Magmortar are just a mess
I really like the simplicity of Tangrowth
Togekiss still looks dumb but not as dumb as Togetic and it makes that line actually useful
Yanmega looks cool just a shame it's still bug/flying
Leafeon is great looking, Glaceon no so much
Gliscor's good
Mamoswine's good
Porygon Z's good
Gallade's a nice idea but looks dumb
Probopass is good
Dusknoir fucks with the line's lantern motif but is otherwise good
Frosslass should've just been the sole original evolution to Snorunt
They were all "good" from a relative standpoint, but if I had to elect to drop some then Licki, Rhy, Elec, Mag, and Glac would all go.
>>29568534
i didn't even notice the missing ones until i scrolled down through the thread.
Roserade's a solid upgrade
Amibpom was dumb but so was Aipom
Mismagius and Honchcrow both solid updates
the above still stands
Though if we count babies then Happiny and Mantyke can gtfo no questions asked.
I'm not super attatched to Munchlax but I don't hate it.
Bonsly's okay.
Chingling and MimeJr are legit better than their evolutions

>>29560585
>>29560585
>>29560710
>STILL hating probopass
wow you're cool
I genuinely nearly all of them are a step down from their originals. What I hate about it is how an evolution renders the pre evolution useless.
For example I love Pilowsine but he is now useless because of Mamoswine, who I dislike.
Eeveelutions are fine in my opinion.
I genuinely for the most part like all of them. Even Rhyperior isn't terrible enough to a point where I wouldn't train one.
Also, Munchlax, Bonsly, Mime Jr and Happiny are all A+. Budew, Mantyke and Chingling are alright. Any other Sinnoh babies I'm possibly forgetting are obviously forgettable.
>>29560585
There you go
a lot of the Gen 4 evos felt unneeded

>>29560585
Gen 4 IS ugly and unnecessary. There is nothing to debate here.>inb4 ur dur mum is ugly and unussurary dur
>>29561058
Electivire the worst? While I respect your opinion, I cannot agree at all.
Electivire is my favorite out of all of them. Magnezone, Porygon-Z, Weavile, Gliscor are great too, though there are others that I'm leaving out.
The only ones that are complete trash are Lickilicky and Magmortar.
