... Poliwag's Pink nose is it's mouth?
Yep, and it disappears when it evolves making me wondering where the water comes from when poliwhirl/poliwrath uses water gun or hydro pump.

If i remember correctly water just comes from the swirlything.

I used to think those red spots were tentacruel's eyes lol

Haha, yeah, I did too. I, as mentioned by others, was fooled by Cradily and Sharpedo.http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/f/f6/073Tentacruel.png

While not really a design misconception, when I first played the games, I thought Gyarados was Dragon-type...I'm sure you see why. Later on, I thought Octillery and Torkoal were part Rock, and only learned Torkoal wasn't a few weeks ago.
Honestly, I'm not sure how Zapdos' wings work. Half the time the black looks like someone added a second pair of wings on top of the first pair. I've got an old (RBY-era) model kit of it that literally gives it two pairs of wings in exactly that fashion, so I don't even know.
Also, I didn't realize Crobat had real feet for the longest time. I thought the smaller pair of wings were its feet.
according to tyhe manga, water comes from the hands. also poliwhirl/wrath do have mouths, butthe mouth's are see-through (in reference to frogs who do have see-through organs)
Satoshi Tajiri said that the swirly things were the intestines in an interview...
so if those were where the water comes from *eeeek* o___0||||
For some reason, until just recently I had never seen Dunsparce's mouth. I thought those little prong thingies on its chin were mandibles or something lol. I feel really stupid now,
not really, it would just be coming through the see-through mouth
I didn't know machop had a tail until a few days ago and now I just keep thinking where does the tail go when he evolves?
ever wonder why machoke wears underpants?
For some odd reason i thought that sawk and throh were Fighting/Water and Fighting/Fire, respectively. The colors made me think that way for some odd reason lol.
ever wonder why some... other... Gen 1 Pokemon wears..... *censored* ?
Here's a really recent one: Honedge only has one eye.
The holes in the sheathe make it look like it has 3 eyes and a mouth, but that's actually just the lines on the sword. I don't know how common of a misconception is, but I seen a lot of fan art show it as 3 eyes and 1 mouth, so I felt that it was enough of a misconception to post about.
BTW, is there a spoiler code for the new format? I can't seem to find one, and it's really bugging me.

doesn't seem to be. keep in mind, however, that this is the bare minimum for the site to be running - chaos and the others will definitely add more later.

Lol the sheath always looked a little racist to me.
I can't say I've had many memorable misconceptions...... Maybe if I dig a little deeper....
ra...racist? how so?
Because it looks like a caricature of a Chinese person the way they used to draw them in old comic books.
.... I never knew that ....
Also laughing at the Chinese sword and makuhita's derpy cheek eyes haha
Not offended at all. (didn't see connection)
Japanese animators rarely draw Chinese this way anyway.
<-- part Chinese.
