Completely and utterly misses the point of Tangela by making it so the dark part is how its body actually looks like when it was supposed to be simply shrowded in darkness(pure darkness has no shadow) so you never actually knew what exactly was underneath the vines
Thank god I only consider the original 151 to be canon because this is disgusting.
The vines are no longer vines too. Yep, total downgrade
nope its an upgrade
your points are convincing

All of the gen 4 cross evos are mistake. Most of them are
>just gets fatter
and ruins the charm the previous forms had.
>and ruins the charm the previous forms had.
*ahem*
he said gen 4
he implied it wasn't just gen 4 doing it wrong
only politoed is bad
I agree crossgens are typically bad.
nah most of the time they are away better homosexual
They were supposed to be strong stand alone Pokémon but Game Freak haphazardly latched them onto KANTOOOOOOOOOOOO families so that people would have to use KANTOOOOOOOOO Pokémon to get them
those are all improvements homosexual
nah your birth was
Notice how the original depictions of Tangela are all just (shadowless) pitch black. Now they are implying it's just a featureless boring grey skinned blob.

#151only
Is this the 151 only thread?
Frick you, Rhyperishit was the worst gen 4 fatso.
Rhydon will forever be more beloved and iconic.
What's a Rhydon?
The first Pokémon. THE Pokémon.
>The first Pokémon.
That's Bulbasaur
>THE Pokémon.
That's Pikachu
Again, what's a Rhydon?
>That's Bulbasaur
That's #001 on the natdex. Rhydon was the first designed pokémon lil bro.
>That's pikachu
That's the mascot. Rhydon is THE pokémon.
>First designed Pokémon
That's Rhyhorn dude.
Are you telling me Rhyhorn has an evolution now? Why? It's already strong on it's own. Why ruining it with a ugly Cross-Gen Evolution?
>THE Pokémon
Again, only the Mascot (AKA Pikachu) can be THE Pokémon, the one everybody sees and say " Yup, that's a Pokémon"
Your Nu-gen Cross-Gen Evo for a perfect Pokémon like Rhyhorn will never be THE Pokémon.
>That's Rhyhorn dude.
Rhydon was designed first lil bro.
why are you bothering to argue with a forced meme. it's just some guy who erases rhydon from pics and pretends it doesnt exist
how many schizos are on this board? There's one dude who goes completely mental whenever someone mention solarbeam, ivyschizo, braixengay, goodragay, reshiramtard, delcatroony.

That's the sevipertard right? why does he use a team plasma grunt when he hates cynthia? Shouldn't he use a team galaxy grunt?
Yes. As for why the Plasma Geunt, i think it's because of that one Black 2/White 2 animation where a female grunt is shown with Seviper.
the guy who has been derailing every thread to say gen 5 is bad for over half a decade
LOL
How can a Nu-gen mon be designed before the 151?
I think you're just gaslighting yourself into thinking Rhydon is from Gen 1, when it's clearly not.
Rhydon was designed first, before the concept of evolutions was a thing. It may or may not have been a redesign of an earlier Capsulmon, Gyaoon - the same thing those 'Rhydon' statues you see all over the place in Gen 1 and 2 are actually depicting. Rhyhorn came later, after the rehaul from Capsulmon into Pokemon and after both the idea of evolutions and the reordering of the Pokedex happened.
dont fall for the bait you moron
Gyaoon can't be Rhydon because it's not Nu-Gen shit.
Face it, Rhydon is not from Gen 1.
take your meds
nope its very cannon your homosexual seething doesn't change the fact there are now over 1000 pokemon
there are 151 Pokémon, the rest are """"Pokémon"""""
>there are 151 Pokémon, the rest are """"Pokémon"""""
based charizard putting nugen morons and their Turnermade shitmons in their place
nah they are all pokemon you seething homosexual your homosexual seething does not change facts you gay c**t!

I like to think that Tangela pretends to be a house plant to receive nutrients (compost, fertilizers) and free water, positioning its red feet like a flower pot and imitating the leaf pattern of other plants with its vines, if it is discovered it runs away there.
are you on the spectrum by any chance?
No, in fact I'm a medic, it's just a silly headcanon that I had as a kid and I saw the chia pets in our garden.
this is the first time I've read the flowerpot theory and it's mostly convincing excepting that I don't recall them being any color other than rust and black.
>we want the Mimikyu audience
Sorry chud, Tangela got retconed too.
>Completely and utterly misses the point of Shellder
No, that's what was inside Shellder all along. It's stronger and meaner when it evolves and willing to expose itself.
no, clearly round outline and a literal forehead light reflection. a dark veil would not reflect anything
ayo this looks like the external human female reproductive anatomy
It look like vagoo!?
i think so!
tangela if she real
Tangela should be grass/water
dex often talks about how it's like seaweed
blue color
resembles an anemone
original location was a single grass patch right next to the ocean (on the "pallet town beach")
>original location was a single grass patch right next to the ocean (on the "pallet town beach")
you can also get it via trading at the cinnabar island (another "beach town")
I've never played a nu-pokemon game because the 3ds and switch games were bad but they do have occasionally good designs. I like gen 8's cross gen evolutions. Ursaluna is nice and Obstagoon is really nice.
>Obstagoon is really nice.
consider drinking bleach
I like Hoenn and its bad 2 stage lines deserve a chance.
>Evolves via learning rollout
>Beta design is shaped like a wheel to match
>Design is overhauled to be generic
>Keeps the same evolution condition
Frick this thing
Beta Garchomp was so much better looking too.
this is the highest example of the betatard
you are obsessed with the novelty of what could have been. there's no way you honestly think that fricked up thing is better than the garchomp we got.
It is LITERALLY better than the garchomp we got.
>The middle
>Beta Floatzel
these are two of my favorite pokemon
how much do you weigh?
150lbs why?
the amount of weight someone weighs sounds quite irrelevant for this topic
that sounds like something a fat person would say
nah its what you would say because you're fat
Literally picrel. Also, better than Lickilicky.
WE WERE ROBBED!
>Good mix cute and cool. Back spines complement the Rollout gimmick while also enhancing Lickitung’s resemblance to various lizards. Bubble tape is a fun but logical twist instead of a forced gourmand motif that ends up as a goofy abortion as result
Gen 4 was the beginning of the decline of mon design and no one can convince me otherwise
I have always been convinced the final Lickilicky design we got started out as a pre-evo for Lickitung along with the other gen IV babies like Munchlax and Happiny, but was turned into an evolution instead for some reason. Design-wise it looks much more like a baby of Lickitung.
>Gen 2 was the beginning of the decline of mon design and no one can convince me otherwise
Fixed
rhyturd will NEVER be oldgen. cope rhydoncels

Why there's one seething moron replying to every single post in the thread?
really makes you think
autism
>autism
no, just business
>"I see. Most Pokemon in Gold & Silver were of the cute variety, but this time…”
>Sugimori: “Indeed, there were a lot of kiddy designs, and some fans were starting to say Pokemon had become too babyish, so one theme for Ruby & Sapphire was returning to the coolness of monsters.
>“In your previous interview at the time of Gold & Silver (February 2000 issue), you said when you were designing Pokemon, you had to consider merchandising, and that created some constraints.”
>Sugimori: “Rather than constraints, I’d say we were careful about a lot of things. Like we’d say ‘if we don’t make a Pokemon this way, they’ll be difficult to animate in the TV show.’ We didn’t really think about those kinds of things this time, which might be bad for the anime staff and independent artists.”
Who hurt you?
>saying "Who hurt you?" on Ganker unironically
lmao
I hate this thing. It's an insult to my beloved Pokemon
homosexual
Tangela? More like Tangayla
My favorite pokemon
shhhh he’s sleeping
*she
Nah it's dead. Its hand is over the bullet hole.
The most heinous crime is getting rid of Tangela's little red shoes.
I like Tangrowth, but I also agree that it should've kept being pitch black under the vines.
she should be exclusively female

>japanese name also ends with an A
