the H bothers me so fuck you I'll take that seriously instead of in a joking context
Also Buzzwole and Guzzlord are great, just like the rest of the UBs. Good on this guy for making those 2.

How did he become a designer for Pokemon? Did he do tcg art at some point first? I know sun and moon had quite a few npcs designed by people that have done a lot of tcg art. I wish game freak were more open about who designs what. Seeing more from the concept stages would be cool too

>all of his designs are shit in battle
What did they mean by this?
>>32085809
he has only illustrated one tcg card, and it was after he began working at gamefreak.

Buzzwole is on the edge of dropping though. It's Speed and low SpD don't work well together. One of the weaker UBs sadly. Mandibuzz is pretty good yeah but most of his other mons really got the short end of the stick.

I think he's a good artist, but not a good Pokemon designer. I'd say his work in Generation VI is his best. Mandibuzz line, Vanilluxe line, and as cool as it may be, even Golurk line lack the "Pokemon-ness" you get from others. They are all very different. They stand out. This part of his style worked in his favor in Generation VII, because UBs are SUPPOSED to be different and stand out. Phantump line is his most Pokemon-like line, in my opinion.
