It's undeniable that Gen 7 has the best Pokémon designs in the series.

Prove me wrong. Pro tip: You can't.

I'll admit that gen 7 designs are definitely up there, but I believe that gen 5 and 4 designs were among the best in the series as well. Gen 6 was the worst, no doubt.
>>
What are you talking about? Gen 7 designs are trash. Disgusting fursona starters, way too much waifushit which is especially aggravating when it ruins an otherwise cool Pokémon like Salandit, uncategorized trash like Bewear, Palossand, Crabominable, Turtonator, Bruxish and more, and the single worst idea to ever disgrace the franchise in the form of Ultra Beasts.

And the Tapu are shit too, with their shoehorned-in features (Like Koko's weird shield arms that are just there because it has to be a rooster because lol idk haha), and otherwise featureless, plastic-like, smooth and thin limbs. They're as bad as the genies and they have absolutely NOTHING on the genius of design that is the beast trio.

The only good Pokémon to come out of this mess are Oranguru and Wishiwashi.
>>
>>33203873
All gens have equally good Pokémon designs, they all contribute something good to the series, variety is great. This X generation has the best Pokémon crap should be stopped.
>>
>>33203873
>It's undeniable that Gen 7 has the best Pokémon designs

That's Gen 1. So no.
>>
Gen 3 is the pinnacle of designs and you know it
>>
>>33203937
Wow and I thought it was impossible to find taste worse than the OP.
>>
>>33203873
>>Top-Tier starters with humanoid features that still remain animalistic
I strongly disagree
>>
>>33203937
>criticizes Tapus for having shoehorned-in features but praises the Johto Beast trio
Why does Suicune have ribbons? What do ribbons have to do with water? Why does Raikou have a blue star on its face? Why does Entei have random collars on its legs?
>>
>>33203950
No, gen 3 designs are mediocre. It doesn't have many bad designs, but they are all bland. I can't even choose 6 favorites out of 135.
>>
>>33203873
Toucanon, Vikavolt, Crabrawler, Salazzle line, Golisopod, Palossand line, Minior, Mimikyu, Bruxish, and the Komo'o line are pretty good.

The Ultra Beasts are good for what they are, but they're not Pokemon.

the starters are lame and their final forms are all terrible, Crabrawler is furstratingly imperfect, Tsareena is insultingly waifubait, Drampa looks like the dragon from Wind Waker but made out of clay and I hate it, the Legendaries all suck as is usual.

The rest are decent enough.

It's a fine gen.

It has some really good ones and Turtonator is my new favorite in the franchise. But no. Gen 5 will likely never be topped as long as they keep doing < 100 new Pokemon per generation.

How do you reconcile taste like this? Maybe you like Gen 5 for an entirely different set of reasons than I do, what are your favorites from it?
>>
>>33203873
I don't give a fuck if you're baiting OP, because i actually agree, even if the Rockruff line was quite a big disappointment.
>>
>>33203977
Suicune's "ribbons" are tails that also double as a resemblance of blowing wind due to Suicune's connection with the north wind.

While I can't justify the other two, the thing is that they're small features of the designs, unlike Tapo Koko for example, who is almost entirely defined by its giant, inorganic and nonsensical shield arms.

Meanwhile the beast trio's manes - Raikou's thundercloud cape, Entei's mane that resembles volcanic smoke as it flows in the wind and Suicune's aurora borealis mane - are some of the coolest, most creative and best executed design elements in the entire series, and they look organic.
>>
>>33203937
the Tapus look like shitty transformers, the ones where the "transformation" is just opening up a shell or folding backwards or something.

Having less doesn't guarantee quality either. Gen 6 had the lowest and also the shittiest. Gen 5 has its share of shit mons as well (monkeys, Keldeo, etc.), but having more also means there's more chances for good ones to be mixed in.
>>33204093
Cryogonal, Volcarona, Druddigon, Krookodile, Heatmor, Leavanny, Klinklang.
>>
>>33203950
This
Gen 7 has fucking horrific "designs". The moment realised the starter leaks were real I gave up hope in solid design.
>>
>>33203873
I agree OP, actually.

Gen VII got me hype off of the designs alone; almost all of them are top tier. I couldn't care less about the story... which was a shame, given that it was front and center.
>>
>>33204102
>best executed design elements in the entire series, and they look organic.
Not him, but I gotta disagree with you on "best executed" and "organic"

They really do look tacked on, and they could have been implemented better. Raikou's cape and its shitty metal zigzag tail come to mind.

At least the Tapu were consistent in the fact they looked like wooden dolls/avatars, which fit with being nature spirits. Looks a hell of a lot more natural than Suicune's weird plastic helmet or the toilet paper coming from its ass.
>>
>>33204119
So Ribbons = Whiskers?

Makes no sense.

ouch, yeah. Besides Krookodile and maybe Leavanny, you seem to like ugly piles of junk.

Pretty shitty taste OP.
>Top-Tier starters with humanoid features that still remain animalistic
A grass owl that barely looks like a grass type with tacked on leaves because otherwise it's just an owl. Also, it's first stage is a literal circle.
An edgelord black cat that looks like a generic animu cat and gets more edgelord every time it evolves, ending up as a badly proportioned edgy dark type.
A clown seal which evolves into waifubait trap seal.
Nope, they are the worst. First time I ever had time picking a starter since I hated them all so much.
>all of the Bug types
Except for Grubbin, Charjabug, Crabrawler, Crabominable and Ribombee. This is pretty much all the evidence you need about how shitty gen 7 is design wise since pretty hard to fuck up bug types.
>Bounsweet line and Lurantis, a Grass type disguised as a Bug type
Both are shitty concepts. They only exist because Gamefreak now has a quota of waifubait to fill so they use generic shit like that.
>the best main legendary trio
Would be true if it weren't for Lunala.
>mythicals
Lots of shitty ones.
>Alolan forms have unique and creative designs for old Pokémon
All Alola forms are crap and were a mistake. Period. There's no debating that, every true fan of the saga knows and agrees with this and only underaged Alolafags defend them.
