Nah, that evo is awesome.

>has a stupid look on its face from getting punched so much

If you think it looks silly then that's fine but the design itself is great.

All NFEfags should be gassed. There is NO good reason to deliberately use a Pokémon that's weaker than its fully-evolved form. You should want your Pokémon to be a strong as possible so it fend off dangerous foes who threaten to kill it. You're actively putting your Pokémon in harm by preventing them from evolving. How does that make you feel, NFEfags? Because of your autism, you are only a bit higher of a level than Team fucking Rocket. For shame!

Togekiss was, design wise, such a disappointment, and it's the only thing I don't like about it. With its prevos we have an egg into a small angelic creature that was the poster child for happiness pokemon; something sacred and pure. It being used as the final shadow pokemon in Colleseum drove in this symbolism.
Then it just becomes a fat bird plane thing.
I guess I just wanted something more.... divine looking.

Both genders of Frillish look so cute with their delicate figures and royal theme.
Then they evolve and their heads become bloated making their proportions ridiculous.
I know people like Jellicent for the contrast between their goofiness and the ominous lore. But they just lose all of the elegance their prevos had, a grace that I expected a "royal" design to keep.

Also these.

Except its more a facultative biped if anything. Why would a quadruped carry and use swords(TWO swords) in the first place? Because its isn't a full-fledged quadruped. Otters irl are primarily quadrupeds that are attempt at using their hands too. Are Dewottfags really this mentally dense?
>use them properly
The swords are massive shells. Pretty sure it doesn't need to attack with them all the time to "use them properly"

If anything, an animal becoming humanoid would signify enhanced intelligence which is why it isn't as frowned upon. People who like designs such as Insineroar and Night Lycanroc are happy that they're once animalistic pre evos would become animals that are capable of doing human activities.

Personally, I love Pignite... When I was doing a playthrough of Black and White I never fully evolved my Oshawott or Tepig because I thought the final evolutions were ugly/disappointing.
Pignite is actually one of my favorite Fighting pokemon, cute chubby pig!

being an shogun is the focus of the Pokemon
in every reference it says he is based on an armored samurai
it's English name is a combination of samurai and otter
and its Japanese name is Daikenki (big sword-wielding demon)
its bw sprite he doesn't wield his sword he never does they have to be constantly sheath
it's swords are an obstacle it's better of without them
it can't use it swords each time he uses one he still in the ground and when using two at once are rare and both are briefly
how is that a defense for it's an awkward anatomy
how many quadruped based pokemon are biped
why dose it have to be quadruped it's pre-evos were biped and there's to many biped pokemon that don't need to be but are
even if he is facultative biped why is he on all 4 on it's sprites typhlosion is facultative biped and has a biped sprite, why is there no depiction of him using one sword bipedally
it can't in game especially in bw

why are you defending it
why are you mad of someone pointing mayor design flaws

Lizards having big ass tails like Sceptile's isn't uncommon. Proportionally speaking it's relatively realistic.

But lizards standing upright while also holding their tails in the air as opposed to on the ground is uncommon.

I don't see having a single leaf ponytail is more cluttered than the yellow balls on Sceptile.

>I don't see having a single leaf ponytail is more cluttered than the yellow balls on Sceptile.
Grovyle has leaves all over the place. There's no reason for it to have two tails or to have one ponytail leaf that goes from its head to its tails when the animal it's based off of uses one tail for camouflage rather than its whole body being hidden by some leaf-like appendages
