Pokemon evolution is different from real world evolution. You should have realized this on the playgroud in the 90's, not now.
>This totally excuses it being extremely dumb
Gamefreak bootlicker typed this
It doesn't excuse anything. It shoes how you never showed that it's dumb from the beginning.
Non sequitur, all previous starter lines even oshawotts' peers have evolution lines that stay in the easthetic of the base form.
>thinks bipedalism is intrinsically 'better' than being quadrupedal.
That's not how evolution works either.
> bipedalism is intrinsically 'better' than being quadrupedal.
It is when the pokemon uses tools, moron.
Its built to use tools in its ideal setting: the WATER. Where standing wouldn't be necessary. If it was a terrestrial creature that doesn't swim I would see your point.
> Its built to use tools in its ideal setting: the WATER
Why is its ideal setting water when it still lives on land? Are you moronic?
Why would a land creature be built for non-land activities? Are you moronic?
> Why would a land creature be built for non-land activities?
Because it’s a bad design.
Then its not a land creature, cope.
Meanwhile
>Biped with a body leaning forward like a baby T-rex
>Biped that can go fully quadrupedal while running because of the longer body
>Becomes fully quadruped and it's a perfectly natural transition
it's impressive how badly they fricked up the unova starters lmao
>lizard suddenly gains two extra limbs
It's been silly from the start
>it's okay when Kanto does it
it's not good either meowth looks like a weird cat-like critter with a coin in the head and then when it evolves it's just a lame recolored cat peak lazy
Persian really benefited from this art style change. I wish it looked like this in game with a more angular face.
Nevermind, they fixed it
This is a bad example, Meowth used to be on all fours, but the TrAshnime made them change to le funny Team Rocket Meowth later on
>being quadruped allows samurott to put more weight and force behind itself when ramming with its horn
sounds like evolution to me brah
I like it from the neck up because it really leans into the daimyo aesthetic, but everything from the neck down just looks like a shitty walmart inflatable pool toy. The detail, anatomy, and posing are fricking garbage.
>goes from terrestrial to aquatic
thats not how evolution is supposed to work...
>went from quadrupedal to nullipedal
Bipedbros, I thought we were the goal of evolution?
>Evolves to breath air
>"nah i'm not feeling it"
>Goes back in the water but now has to still breath air
Whales are so fricking dumb
Literally every aquatic mammal followed that path
Says fricking who? It's happened multiple times in Pokemon and in real life.
samurott haters once again outing themselves as morons
The common ancestor of all dinosaurs was bipedal. so Sauropods, Thyreophorans, Ceratopsians, etc. all evolved to be quadrupedal from bipedal ancestors. These groups also didnt become quadrupedal at the same time and all independently evolved the posture.
People only complain about Samurott being a quadruped even though they want more starters that don't look like biped fursuits is because a quadruped trying to fumble around holding swords looks dumb as frick.
Just remove the swords and suddenly its an ok design. It still has a spear/horn and armor anyway, so it didn't even need swords to show off its samurai visual theme.
They honestly salvaged it's concept with the regional variant now using it's blades to set up shell debris/hazards after attacking.
