Stare into Watchog's eyes and tell me there are good things about it.
It's a neat concept to have a pokemon based on a road worker, and I can't help but think about Pokemon that act as living streetlights. I can imagine them letting a flock of tiny Ducklett safely cross the streets of Castelia City.
Turtonator and Aromatisse.
Turtonator? But it's perfect! It's literally a Mine Turtle from asdfmovie! Its jagged shell resembles a cartoon explosion and the spikes as debris, as well as its award-winning smile to boot! It's why I chose Ultra Sun and not Ultra Moon with that FRAUD Drampa.
Aromatisse has its quirks as well. Meshing plague doctors and can-can dancers may seem unwise, but the culmination makes it such that it really brings out the "monster" part of Pocket Monsters. It's so strange, and that's wonderful about it. It's unique, just like all of the Kalos dex.
Banette, huh? I find its appearance delightful. Possessed dolls are a tried-and-true trope of horror media and this Pokemon definetly fits the bill. . The whole story about Banette being driven by spite from being abandoned is so intriguing, and I find its Mega form of equal interest, given its gangly appearance and how its spiteful powers are seeping from zippers. That's another thing, by the way. The inclusion of ZIPPERS is such a wonderful design component. I mean, LOOK HOW IT MOVES. How the base moves its arms as if they were limp. So Cool.
So, is it like the "extreme advertising" meme, but with sarcasm?
Anyway, I challenge you to hype the fuck out of
Silcoon and
Cascoon. Bonne chance!
AWWW YEAH BABY, SILCOON AND CASCOON! PRETTY MUCH THE CEOS OF ANY HOENN TEAM. I remember when I switched my Bug/Poison destroying machine against that wimp Steven Stone's totally weaksauce Metagross on a crit Psychic! Didn't even take a lick of damage, right before I CRUSHED IT to little metal scraps with a decimatory Poison Sting attack! THESE THINGS ARE THE GREATEST!
(more coming soon.)
