Why now the starters look very humanoid?

>>30396203
For fug.

>>30396203
So we can masturbate to them easier

I don't know, but I don't like it. They seem more like individuals rather than a species.
>>
>>30396203
The Gen 2 starters were the least memorable and least liked starters of all. Use Gen 1 for this.
>>
>>30396203
Because Blaziken and Sceptile came and ruined everything.

Anthropomorphic design choices

Gen V based them off of Western, Chinese and Japanese archetypes (Royalty, Journey to the West character and Samurai)
Gen VI based them on classical medieval archetypes (Fighter, Mage, Rogue)
Gen VII based them off of performers and entertainers (Archer, Heel and Singer)

Gen II just ripped off Gen I and switched some stats around

How is that related to design choice?

I'm just saying the thought put into them was different. Gen II basically remade the Gen I starters

While the design choices for Gen VI and VII were based on professions that humans do. It's easier to create an anthropomorphic design to get this idea across. That's why Primarina's the least anthropomorphic of the three because its job doesn't require physical movement like Decidueye and Incineroar's do

Sceptile isn't anthropmorphic, it's just a bipedal lizard.

Blaziken, yes.

>Bird person

The progression in the Torchic line feels more like a Digimon.

Why now all the broken English?

As opposed to back in gen 6?

>>30396392
Royalty is not a Western concept, what the fuck?

Did someone say bird person?

Western royalty. Serperior looks specifically like a nobleman of french royalty.

Yeah, I couldn't think of the right word for Serperior's design but the royalty is more like western medieval kings in aesthetic than anything Eastern or Mesoamerican for example

Serperior is specifically modeled after Western royalty. French to be precise.

The design on its chest is an upside-down fleur-de-lis, which is a symbol of French royalty.

>>30397765
flashy?

Except for Typhlosion, they just use charizard stats and gave it a worst type.
This starter was a mistake.

Also at least in Gen 1 the starters evolution gain some features like wings, canon or giant flower on the back when they evolve.

Meganium and Typhlosion are just bigger, Feraligatr is ok tho, it actually change aspect with its evolution and seems to gain some armor pieces wich looks kinda badass.
>>
>>30396266
So very true, I never thought to put it in those words though
>>
>>30399829
that's a pretty serious feraligatr boner you've got going there

Do you think of sucking Feraligatr dick for an hour before bed every night? I bet you do.I bet you just lay there wishing it'd pop out of your 3ds and slide it's slimey wriggly lizard cock down your throat and fill you tummy with cummies, right?
