Feels like James Turner was at it again. Start out with a cool concept and fucking give up on the evolution(s) and the stats. Just why, who the fuck greenlighted this?

honestly would have been a great pair as counterparts
but as the same line if its just stupid
>>30191154
Some Pokemon have to be bad, for other Pokemon to be good.
>>30191154
I really wish Crabominable didn't exist.
I wish Crabrawler could have just been Hawklucha/Heracross2.
This design just fucking ruins everything about Crabrawler
>>30191154
just remove the buck teeth and it's fixed
?????
>>30191224
The buck teeth and the shit on its head.
I was so fucking hyped for a coconut crab or yeti crab, but they had to make it THIS? I let my Crabrawler evolve just to try it out but I ended up boxing it just before the Elite 4, it's so fucking hideous
>>30191224
i mean its still a shitty ice type even after dental surgery
>>30191271
exactly my thoughts. without the teeth and the weird fucking hair it'd be a great design
>>30191224
>>30191154
>Talking shit about based Brit
>had to use salandit AND crabrawler unevolved the entire game because gamefreak literally cannot stop themselves from ruining good designs
Crabominable is fucking hilarious if only because of much of a swerve it is. It would have been better as a split evo. If Crabrawler gets lost on the mountains, it becomes Ice/Fighting, it it gets lost in the desert, it becomes a different Ground/Fighting Pokemon.
I can't believe this is the only new ice Pokemon though.
>>30191271
>boxing it
>>30191342
I see where this going....
>>30191192
A regular Crabrawler with stats similar to Heracross or Hawlucha
Then an icy Crabrawler caught on Mount Lanakila that learns Ice type moves, has a different appearance and typing, maybe a different ability.
Kinda like... hmm.... the fucking regional variants that they also introduced in these games?
>>30191224
>just remove it and it's fixed
ftfy
there's no need to thank me
>>30191520
it looks cute ovo
>>30191520
Now it needs some actual pincers.
James Turner didn't create any Pokemon this gen.

>THAT STUPID FUCKING HAIR WHY
I think Crabominable is okay. You guys are whiny little babies.
I like it as a derpmon, but not as a Crabrawler evo. I'd rather have a bulkier Crabrawler that didn't evolve.
>>30191643
Do we know which mons were designed by who? I feel like vikavolt, wishiwashi school, golisopod and mimikyu were all Ariga but I can't say for sure
I thought there was supposed to be a clear, logical development for evolutions?

>le james turner is a bad designer meme xddd

>wanted to really use Salandit
>only female ones evolve and males just stay weak as fuck
>females encounter rates are low as fuck
I spent about 30 minutes trying to find that shit until I gave up and just picked up a Cubone instead for Alolan Marowak, first try it was Adamant nature holding a Thick Club
