So, they've pretty much exhausted their own gods/mythical beasts (who am I kidding, they'll never run out).
They should move onto the mythical creatures of other cultures. Norse, particularly. Trolls, Jotunn, and maybe a 3rd evolution of Ponyta in the form of Sleipnir? If not, a FLAMING FUCKING PEGASUS would be cool, too.
But really, I would like to see some Norse beasts in Gen VI.

>>20176
Alternatively, they could do a Lovecraftian-themed gen. Giant squid legendaries and a cultist Team _____. Maybe they want to summon an Elder God or something. I don't know, it could work.
>> No. 20305

It was the golems AND the ice cream pokemon line. I liked both lines, so I wouldn't mind Americans being allowed to make more.

>> No. 20315
>>20305
>>20306
Oh, well then. In that case, that's pretty interesting as those designs were all very original as compared to the ones made by the usual guys. Some of those seem to be taking older ones and remodeling them almost.

I want to see a multinational team design some pokemon, that way we are guaranteed something different from the usual.
>> No. 20318
Am I the only one who didn't like Vanillite then? Golurk was a GREAT addition and Garbodor is very cool but Vanilluxe seemed sort of... boring. Just having it straight up be an ice cream cone made it look a little uncreative to me, which is weird since I'm okay with that for most other Pokemon.

>> No. 20324

No, I know what you mean. The golems are probably my favorite evolution line of gen 5, and while I'm not a fan of Garbodor, I admit he's at least a cool concept, but I'm just not a fan of the ice cream line past Vanillite. Typically, I like simple Pokemon, but having simple Pokemon based off of non-living things just seems...kind of lazy, somehow, while simple designs based on plants/animals doesn't.

I've been asking /vp/ forever about this but....

Is there any way to know who designed a specific pokemon? Or is there a list that groups pokemon by their designer?

I wanted to see who designed my favorite pokemon and see if maybe I could sort out the best and worst designers.

For the American designers, I like ice cream-mon the best and vulture the least.

No offense to Mandibuzz fans, but Wargle is just hard to compete with in terms of coolness.

Pawniard has a large head and a thin neck that slowly gets wider as it nears his base.
Bisharp has a large, notched head, an even wider point immediately beneath that, and then a thin body that, like Pawniard, gets wider as it goes down.

You mean a quadrupedal shark or a one that uses its fins as feet as pictured?

A deep sea snail covered in scales made from actual iron (well, iron sulfite), whose armor is so though its being studied for potential use in body armor and armored vehicles? I think we have a water/steel on our hands.
