    Palworld has done better than Nintendo has been with characters lately.

    Have you seen the latest gen? Flamenco Flamigo? … seriously?

      Seel was gen 1. Every gen since the beginning has had boring filler pokemon. I’ve been a singles competitive player since the end of gen 4 though so my opinion might not matter as much.

      “OBJECTMON ARE STUPID! GAMEFREAK WOULDN’T DO THIS IN THE GOLDEN ERA” - Voltorb says hi, and Sudowoodo is literally a bug being a tree

      “REAL WORLD ANIMALS ARE LAZY! GAMEFREAK WOULDn’T DO THIS IN A REAL POKEMON GAME!” - Seel says hi

      “Okay, that’s just food, but now it’s an animal.” - Diglett looks more like a hotdog than a mole, let’s be honest here… but if you want something more direct Eggsecute

        Sudowoodo always cracks me up.

        I imagine them in a meeting room

        “We need a unique twist in this 2nd gen. Something to catch the players off guard”

        “What if we made a grass pokemon rock type heheh”

        “What was that?!”

        “What if we made a grass pokemon rock type? … Y’know, most people pick fi…”

        “That might actually work!! Genius! Who hired them?”
