GEN IV was the last good gen.It already had a few questionable pokemon designs, but most of them were alright.Then GEN V had a few alright designs but most of them were questionable.Then it went downhill...
>ZOMG WHAT IF WE TURNED THESE BADASS TRANSCENDENTAL PHYSICAL EMBODIMENTS OF REALITY INTO LE QUIRKY ANIME GIRLS XD
>>58819304yeah
>>58819315>>58819295cute
>>58819295>gets shitted on with bdspiss and plassi dont think so xister
>>58819323We've moved on from plassposting now that Game Freak released an objectively worse game and called that Legends
>>58819304How new are you?
>>58819315I can hear it
>>58819295>GEN IV was the last good gen.thats correctgen 5 was only average
>>58819304Hell yeah.
gen IV gave us literal gods, realistically where do you go from there?it was the closing act
>>58819304> TRANSCENDENTAL PHYSICAL EMBODIMENTS OF REALITYMasuda already confirmed they aren’t actually this, and the myths are exaggerated. If you’re a Mythfag, though, Arceus already turned into a cute girl. No reason to doubt the others doing the same.
>>58819304The artist’s Palkia is a guy btw>>58819477See >>58819534Gen 4’s legends are about humans’ connection with the primal fear of the unknown. UMA (spirit) defines how we perceive DP (matter, or timespace). In Gen 5 they moved on to Man’s struggle with ideology, followed by the Gen 6 with Man’s imperative toward beauty and the distribution of resources. Masuda being axed was the death knell of the Pokemon franchise. We could have gotten more philosophy and anthropology kino instead Ohmori reusing his family drama plot.
>>58819552>The artist’s Palkia is a guy btwI know
>>58819426Would
>Creation quartet as femoids
>>58819534>Masuda already confirmed they aren’t actually this, and the myths are exaggeratedToo bad PLAss made it literal anyway
>>58819581Arceus is female as per teraleak
>>58819304Why would they not?Hell we could even reverse engineer this idea to ascribe that humans tried to humanize forces of nature since our inception of the divine.And that in this case these forces aquire a human form so that us fleshy apes can even perceive them.
>>58819747It's both
>>58819477Antigods and outer gods I suppose.
>>58819304i say this and do this
I hate the creation quartet. Pokémon is better if we don't move into the "literal gods" territory and stay in the "mythical / legendary creatures" territory.Super ancients are cool.Literally the avatar of god is going too far
>>58819295So true
>>58819747No, he doesn't. He transformed into a woman, which isn't the same thing.This earlier version of the lore was not retained and is not compatible with the official canon
>>58819747ngl the better version is the one where palkia and diagla fuck each other so much they end up creating Pokemon and Humans
>>58821339cope>>58821355hot
>>58821075This.This is why Gen 3 is the last true gen even though it was a semi-reboot.
