Gorebyss is a pipe fish. It doesn't even remotely resemble a dolphin. Lanturn is a deep sea angler but you knew that and you're just trying to get a rise out of people.
There are some people on this planet who may actually be stupid enough to fall for the idea of gorebyss being a dolphin. Someone has to set the record straight or the trolls win.

Its gimmick is shit >Shut up, its based on the superman trope and totally isnt a moronic ability unlike battle bond
Its evo method is moronic >Shut up, you gotta play with strangers! I mean I never go outside but that's what you gotta do!
Even the official artwork is lazy as frick with it having the exact same fricking pose >Shut up, it changes form and is hiding so its supposed to look stupid on purpose!
my biggest issue with Palafin is its "hero mode" looks very little like Finizen >completely different color >tail is a totally different shape >loses Finizen's wavy side design >just generally a very different shape
it ends up making them feel very disconnected
Literally one of the longest running jokes in fiction is that Clark Kent and Superman look exactly alike and people around him are idiots because all he does is take off his glasses >well akshually in this one superman comic I read it says tha-

>I bet you think he changes his costume in a phone booth.
What are you going on about? He literally has, in the comics and the cartoons and the movies.
They found an excuse not to give it a different art piece showing it in a different pose. Bootlickers will defend this and say it's perfectly acceptable for the trillion dollar company to blatantly and shamelessly cut corners even in the art pieces, which as we all know are 80% traced over 3D models. Frick you GF
It's not an excuse, it's deliberately drawing attention to the fact that they're the same with 1 difference. If it were in a different pose people would be complaining they're trying to sweep it under the rug that they're the same.
>this entire thread >people really don't understand finizen and palafin
these must be the same players they dumb the games difficulty down to baby levels for
It is exactly what it looks like. He copy pasted palafin because superman is just copy pasted Clark kent, but with glasses

If they were gonna do something like this, they should have just made Palafin a single stage. It looks like my mom's dolphin normally, and then changes form under a specific circumstance. That way, you have to "undercover superhero" theme, but you don't pad the dex with the same Pokémon twice.
if every finizen was super than none of them would be
Well, I mean, every Finizen can evolve, so it doesn't really matter. If it's a big deal to have only a few "heroes" amongst the "citizens", then just make it a hidden ability like
[...]
Unless they made the super hero form its HA
said. The theme is executed the same way except even better because now there's no heart showing who is and who is not a hero. Furthermore, now some can never become a hero; it is something rare and unique, unlike just evolving the dude.
Normally I would agree with you, but there are so many samey Pokemon in the dex that already pad it out that I don't see it as mattering at this point. I'm personally not a fan of Volcarona and Donphan each padding the dex out TWICE EACH. Dope designs, but it's basically the same mon 3 times, twice. Meanwhile something like Alolan Sandslash or Alolan Persian don't pad the dex despite being departures from their original versions.
So, you agree with me, but because you agree with me so much, you don't agree with me? There's too much padding. Just because other padding Pokémon exist doesn't mean we should just keep padding, or cannot criticize particular instances of padding on a thread dedicated to it.
>you don't agree with me?
I'm saying it's not as severe a situation as other cases. In an ideal world there would be a lot of dex trimming including Palafin, but with the hand dealt, Palafin is tame compared to the Nidos and the Paradoxes that take far more than 1 slot so I don't consider it something really worth doting over. They already put out the 1000+ video and all that, so maybe they intentionally aimed to pass the 1000 threshold for Gen 9.
Fair enough, but I still consider it a pretty egregious example of padding as it looks identical, bar one single mark. The Paradoxes are, like you said, worse though; I agree. There's just so much of this lazy design and lack of creativity across the whole region. I can't stand the Pawmi and company, Dudunsparce, Paradoxes, and so many other lazy-ass designs.

That's not true at all. Complaining you got shot and are dying isn't just a complaint for the sake of complaining. It's a complaint to express that you need medical attention and want justice against the person you shot you. On the contrary, you're not going to get anything here.
>This whole fricking thread
I’m actually confused, someone do me a favour, cut the bullshit and tell me straight: is this like the Kukui/masked royal meme or have most of the anons on here actually missed the point? I genuinely can’t tell, if it is a meme then I guess I missed the memo, I DID end up avoiding the leak threads after all
No one is confused
If you think the joke is just absolutely hilarious it is because you are so dim that it's clever to you, and the reason other people don't isn't because they don't understand it, it's because they understand it so easily it's not funny at all.
Literal moron. It's a 2 stage mon with 2 seperate designs, that's reasonable. They just made it so that it looks like it's regular dude stage until you switch out and return as the proper superhero form. If you don't find it "funny" that's fine, I don't see how it's funny either, it's not a joke it's a concept for a pokemon.
wow dude thanks for explaining the thing I already understood and so does everyone else
it doesn't make it not a cop out to avoid making another design

Those two are different Pokémon. Palafin has a heart on its chest and evolves from Finizen.
The main difference though is that if you send Palafin into a battle, make it retreat, and send it again, it'll change into its hero form which is the muscular dolphin you can see around.
You can't find Palafin on the wild. It's either by evolving Finizen or catching it from a 5 star raid (beware because 3 star dolphins are always Finizen).
>You can't find Palafin on the wild
Are you absolutely certain? Have you battled every Finizen you saw to check? The pokedex says the same thing about Dragonite, but there's a plateau full of them.
This thread is why GF will never cater to the schizo part of the fanbase. They will throw you the biggest nod to Westen superhero and you won't get it. You're upset about the premise instead of the execution like a normal human being.
Calling it now, the SV anime will have a recurring character that uses a Palafin in its base form. Then, when some conflict arises, he disappears and comes back in costume with his Palafin in hero mode.
this entire thread is a trainwreck
ignoring it, it seriously sucks that there’s nothing to differentiate Palafin and Finizen normally. Even if that’s “””the point”””, it would’ve been nice to have something like a slightly longer tail or different eyes- some sort of noticeable but minor physical difference that’s less lazy than just slapping a stamp on the chest (Clark Kent has glasses and is a ripped office worker, he still stands out even in his disguise). At the very very very minimum they could’ve redrawn Palafin’s base form into a more dynamic pose, like maybe it’s doing doe eyes or otherwise going overboard on the “innocent regular Finizen” angle. Instead they just drew a fricking stamp on Finizen’s artwork and called it a day. Incredible.
While I am a little sour that Finizen and Palafin are damn near identical for being part of an evolution tree like Pawmi's whole mess, I can let go of it when I realize that despite their appearance they have very different stats and movepools. You can't do that with making a single stage mon with Zero to Hero as a HA. Dolphin has an excuse.
I feel like they only did that so that the kiddies (Read: braindead consoomers) wouldn't have a mental breakdown seeing 2 identical pokemon being so different. Wish Finizen wasn't such a shitmon though with an awful evo method

Even the official artwork is lazy as frick with it having the exact same fricking pose
>Shut up, it changes form and is hiding so its supposed to look stupid on purpose!
And on and on and on
what the hell is this fakemon
do you want me to tell you? it might ruin some of the magic for you
my biggest issue with Palafin is its "hero mode" looks very little like Finizen
>completely different color
>tail is a totally different shape
>loses Finizen's wavy side design
>just generally a very different shape
it ends up making them feel very disconnected
I mean. Superman looks very little like Clark Kent. That's kinda the point.
Literally one of the longest running jokes in fiction is that Clark Kent and Superman look exactly alike and people around him are idiots because all he does is take off his glasses
>well akshually in this one superman comic I read it says tha-
Shut up
>jokes in fiction
those "jokes" were people who didn't read comics that osmose into some common knowledge. I bet you think he changes his costume in a phone booth.
>I bet you think he changes his costume in a phone booth.
What are you going on about? He literally has, in the comics and the cartoons and the movies.
no he didn't, in fact it only happened once
Palafin master!
Who is that though and why does it always appear next to Finizens and Palafins?
All that light blue stuff is dolphin muccus btw
Did you hear this on Fox News moron? You probably think Batman is Bruce Wayne too. Dumb chud.
Do you think he rapes Finizen just like real dolphins?
They found an excuse not to give it a different art piece showing it in a different pose. Bootlickers will defend this and say it's perfectly acceptable for the trillion dollar company to blatantly and shamelessly cut corners even in the art pieces, which as we all know are 80% traced over 3D models. Frick you GF
It's not an excuse, it's deliberately drawing attention to the fact that they're the same with 1 difference. If it were in a different pose people would be complaining they're trying to sweep it under the rug that they're the same.
lmao autists who tie their self esteem to pokemon are really defending this ITT incels are so sad
>this entire thread
>people really don't understand finizen and palafin
these must be the same players they dumb the games difficulty down to baby levels for
I wonder if they'd be shocked to learn of Clark Kent's secret identity.
Supermans base design looks exactly like a citizen... they're so fricking lazy bros I can't do it anymore
Nice fricking character design, DC.
This is so fricking lazy. God I hate American comics and their sameface.
>hurr it was a le joke bro, hahaha we are le joking, you are a dumb ESL to understand our super advanced, charming and based EFL humor!
not what that means at all, you moron
It is exactly what it looks like. He copy pasted palafin because superman is just copy pasted Clark kent, but with glasses
There, I explained your dumb joke, frick you.
Yeah I wish Hero Form was just the default look but I appreciate the gimmick.
this level of laziness is actually disgusting to me
I don't see the problem
Imagine how much of a basedboy buckbroken cuck you'd have to be to defend something like this. I would hate to see the disgusting bodies of the samegayging moron seething about people daring to call this out ITT
>not a new IP
you're embarrassing yourself
I love refreshing this thread and seeing the OP get new replies basically saying the same thing as the IP count stays the same.
how does one man have so much seethe over a cartoon dolphin
I was talking to you, moron.
Yeah it's pretty hilarious.
If they were gonna do something like this, they should have just made Palafin a single stage. It looks like my mom's dolphin normally, and then changes form under a specific circumstance. That way, you have to "undercover superhero" theme, but you don't pad the dex with the same Pokémon twice.
but then every citizen would be a superhero
i wouldn't mind it that way but it does make more sense the way it is
Unless they made the super hero form its HA
that would actually be cool.
and finizen could have justified or some other hidden ability that subtly implies it has the heart of a HERO
Well, I mean, every Finizen can evolve, so it doesn't really matter. If it's a big deal to have only a few "heroes" amongst the "citizens", then just make it a hidden ability like
said. The theme is executed the same way except even better because now there's no heart showing who is and who is not a hero. Furthermore, now some can never become a hero; it is something rare and unique, unlike just evolving the dude.
So, you agree with me, but because you agree with me so much, you don't agree with me? There's too much padding. Just because other padding Pokémon exist doesn't mean we should just keep padding, or cannot criticize particular instances of padding on a thread dedicated to it.
>you don't agree with me?
I'm saying it's not as severe a situation as other cases. In an ideal world there would be a lot of dex trimming including Palafin, but with the hand dealt, Palafin is tame compared to the Nidos and the Paradoxes that take far more than 1 slot so I don't consider it something really worth doting over. They already put out the 1000+ video and all that, so maybe they intentionally aimed to pass the 1000 threshold for Gen 9.
Fair enough, but I still consider it a pretty egregious example of padding as it looks identical, bar one single mark. The Paradoxes are, like you said, worse though; I agree. There's just so much of this lazy design and lack of creativity across the whole region. I can't stand the Pawmi and company, Dudunsparce, Paradoxes, and so many other lazy-ass designs.
You morons realize they could've just made Zero to Hero a rare ability, right?
if every finizen was super than none of them would be
This, the evolution distinction was good. Otherwise, they'd probably have it be another Dudunsparce/Maushold situation if it were a single mon.
Normally I would agree with you, but there are so many samey Pokemon in the dex that already pad it out that I don't see it as mattering at this point. I'm personally not a fan of Volcarona and Donphan each padding the dex out TWICE EACH. Dope designs, but it's basically the same mon 3 times, twice. Meanwhile something like Alolan Sandslash or Alolan Persian don't pad the dex despite being departures from their original versions.
I get the concept but the art does feel lazy, just adding the heart. Would’ve been better if they at least flipped it
SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP GAMEFREAK DOES EVERYTHING PERFECTLY YOU ARE UNDERAGED YOU ARE LITTLE KID I AM BIG BOY ADULT I UNDERSTAND IT I UNDERSTAND SO IT'S GOOD!!!!!
yeah bro keep it up you might eventually get a reply that's not from yourself
Palafin could have been a single-evo.
>rightfully
NTA but there's nothing rightful about it. It's complaining just to complain at that point.
>NTA
yes, you are
Reply to both my and his post at the same time and I'll show you.
We all know how to inspect element
We all know about incognito mode
We all have cell phones
You aren't slick
>hurr look at me I'm a different guy now because I took the (You) out
>We all
You mean just schizos who want to disguise their schizoing. Way to out yourself as one.
>no u
k
...You literally said "We all".
Yes. Every single person ITT has a cell phone.
Every single person who's not moronic knows the other things too.
What's your point?
For a different guy you keep obsessing over nothing and trying to make a point out of it that means nothing to anyone but you just like the other one, really makes me think.
>Every single person who's not moronic knows the other things too.
>What's your point?
That you're trying to either accuse me of being the same person or being a moron, just because you're a schizo who insists everyone is as schizo as you.
and you're a psycho, that's it.
>knowing basic computer shit and even just owning a cell phone makes someone a schizo
Bro you're just seething because you couldn't trick anyone lol
you're not gonna shame anyone into falling for it, especially when multiple people are calling you out on trying to bullshit
Owning a cell phone doesn't make someone a schizo, you're just being disingenuous. Knowing how to disguise your posts to do shit like what you're doing now makes you one.
Even if you weren't a dishonest c**t pushing self serving bullshit to try to shame people into falling for your samegayging, you'd now know about this too because of me explaining it, so I guess you're a schizo now.
Or are you still going to just believe everyone who samegays when they say they're not in the future so that you don't look like le schizo
>you'd now know about this too because of me explaining it
...Dude, you didn't explain anything though. It's like shouting "Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus" at someone and saying I'd now know how to solve this complex problem because of you explaining it.
So fricking what? Doesn't matter how it's done, the fact of the matter is that it can be done easily so the (You)s mean nothing.
What a moronic completely irrelevant post. Go ahead and have the last word, you're obviously desperate as frick for it if this is what you have to say. You've convinced no one of anything while I've let everyone know that you're samegayging and no one disagrees. I've already won here.
>so what
Are you dense? So your entire post made no sense. It's like acting like you gave me a knife and that made me a threatening knife-wielder, when all you really did was stand there mentioning cutlery can be harmful.
jesus and they said avery is not sword exclusive.
Schizo babble.
Psycho pedors.
I played pokemon sword and the dlc for isle of armor and crown tundra. I'm glad I didn't see that piece of shit Avery anywhere on my game.
>Owning a cell phone doesn't make someone a schizo
..................that was his point.
Read the next sentence.
So what exactly is your point? That we should trust that having the (You)s means it's not samegayging? Clearly someone who would resort to samegayging in the first place ((You)) wouldn't be unwilling to hide his samegayging, so why would anyone trust you?
More like psychos (including you) raiding themselves.
NTA but
>if you weren't tricked by my deception you're the deceptive one
lol who do you think is reading this post and agreeing with you right now
Since when did it become against rules for pokemon to reuse species.
>autist is too scared to reply properly
Autism moment
>Every complaint is a complaint just for the sake of it.
That's not true at all. Complaining you got shot and are dying isn't just a complaint for the sake of complaining. It's a complaint to express that you need medical attention and want justice against the person you shot you. On the contrary, you're not going to get anything here.
*who shot you
a big one
>This whole fricking thread
I’m actually confused, someone do me a favour, cut the bullshit and tell me straight: is this like the Kukui/masked royal meme or have most of the anons on here actually missed the point? I genuinely can’t tell, if it is a meme then I guess I missed the memo, I DID end up avoiding the leak threads after all
no people are truly so outragepilled that they actually think like OP
I don’t get it either anon
No one is confused
If you think the joke is just absolutely hilarious it is because you are so dim that it's clever to you, and the reason other people don't isn't because they don't understand it, it's because they understand it so easily it's not funny at all.
Literal moron. It's a 2 stage mon with 2 seperate designs, that's reasonable. They just made it so that it looks like it's regular dude stage until you switch out and return as the proper superhero form. If you don't find it "funny" that's fine, I don't see how it's funny either, it's not a joke it's a concept for a pokemon.
wow dude thanks for explaining the thing I already understood and so does everyone else
it doesn't make it not a cop out to avoid making another design
I want to frick it
shoulda just been a stage one
Why can't game freak let me use hero form for raids
A true hero never raids.
Quick, someone who is not moronic, explain this. I don't play new shit.
>
Those two are different Pokémon. Palafin has a heart on its chest and evolves from Finizen.
The main difference though is that if you send Palafin into a battle, make it retreat, and send it again, it'll change into its hero form which is the muscular dolphin you can see around.
I wonder if you can encounter Palafin in the wild. And if it was possible, how would you tell it apart from Finizen?
It would say "palafin" in the name when you're battling it
You can't find Palafin on the wild. It's either by evolving Finizen or catching it from a 5 star raid (beware because 3 star dolphins are always Finizen).
>You can't find Palafin on the wild
Are you absolutely certain? Have you battled every Finizen you saw to check? The pokedex says the same thing about Dragonite, but there's a plateau full of them.
This thread is why GF will never cater to the schizo part of the fanbase. They will throw you the biggest nod to Westen superhero and you won't get it. You're upset about the premise instead of the execution like a normal human being.
The dex doesn't show fixed encounters.
>you won't get it
you're so stupid you don't even know that you're stupid and that is sad
Yeah, so you don't know. There might be fixed encounter Palafins out there.
Idiots
Calling it now, the SV anime will have a recurring character that uses a Palafin in its base form. Then, when some conflict arises, he disappears and comes back in costume with his Palafin in hero mode.
its kawaii
I don't mind the design being the same, but the official art being a copy/paste job is just pure laziness
Palafin was clearly designed around the hero form. That's why it learns moves that only make sense for that form like Close Combat and Jet Punch.
this entire thread is a trainwreck
ignoring it, it seriously sucks that there’s nothing to differentiate Palafin and Finizen normally. Even if that’s “””the point”””, it would’ve been nice to have something like a slightly longer tail or different eyes- some sort of noticeable but minor physical difference that’s less lazy than just slapping a stamp on the chest (Clark Kent has glasses and is a ripped office worker, he still stands out even in his disguise). At the very very very minimum they could’ve redrawn Palafin’s base form into a more dynamic pose, like maybe it’s doing doe eyes or otherwise going overboard on the “innocent regular Finizen” angle. Instead they just drew a fricking stamp on Finizen’s artwork and called it a day. Incredible.
While I am a little sour that Finizen and Palafin are damn near identical for being part of an evolution tree like Pawmi's whole mess, I can let go of it when I realize that despite their appearance they have very different stats and movepools. You can't do that with making a single stage mon with Zero to Hero as a HA. Dolphin has an excuse.
I feel like they only did that so that the kiddies (Read: braindead consoomers) wouldn't have a mental breakdown seeing 2 identical pokemon being so different. Wish Finizen wasn't such a shitmon though with an awful evo method
