This thing exemplifies why nugen designs are often shit compared to gen 1 designs.>cartoon animal instead of a unique ambiguous looking creature like sandshrew/sandslash so it’s completely forgettable>random markings stapled on because the designers couldn’t think of any way to make the pokemon look interesting>retarded looking humpback proportions and random spikesThe only reason anyone pretends this thing is a good design is because it’s decent competitively. That’s it.
>>57150851>animal plus funny color is good monster designokay boomer

>>57150851i'm a diehard genwunner but excadrill is one of my all-time favoritesi never used him competitively, i just liked having him in my squad in the pve storyline in BWi love the concept and i'm not a raging homosexual art school faggot like you so i dont obsess over nerd shit like proportions and versimilitude or whatever faggot shit you're trying to look smart about
>>57150851Based. Go find more redpilled posts to repost from the archive.
>cartoon animal that came out when I became a jaded retard vs cartoon animal that came out when I was a kid
>>57150851Prepare to receive maximum seething for daring ti identify one of le based DS generations as a "nugen"
>>57150863dugtrio isn’t a cartoon animal
>>57150868Fetch me another Castelia Cone
>>57150868nugen begins with v
>>57150851Your love for Excadrill will increase tenfold when you realize it's 2 feet tall
>>57150851>>random markings stapled on because the designers couldn’t think of any way to make the pokemon look interesting>>retarded looking humpback proportions and random spikesok but enough about magmar
>>57150851I love this little guy. Has helped me eliminate a lot of cancer with mold breaker or just the classic sand rush sweep. Always has a place on my team.
>>57150904I’m sorry you don’t know what “random” and “hunchback” mean
>>57150915Excadrill's markings and spikes are intentional.Give me a reason why they added Magmar's flame decal other than it would look even more ugly without it.
>>57150956>Excadrill's markings and spikes are intentionalBecause the designers ran out of ideas, yes.
>>57150851The head spike and shovel claws turn it into a drill when it folds itself up
>>57150851>>57150904
>>57150965So you have no argument then. Shocking.
>>57150991My argument is that they intentionally put shitty patterns on it because they ran out of ideas. You said that they did it intentionally. You're literally agreeing with me.
>>57150965>>57151001This nigga dresses in plain white shirts and khakis every day
>>57150851The whole gen 5 dex is hot garbage except galvantula, scolipede, reshiram and zekrom.
>>57150904>randomflame patterns on a fire type arent randomexcadrill is a mole with random red markings kek
Damn Unova is underrated
>>57151075Damn unova is gay*
>>57151115Damn reality is gay
>>57150851Excadrill is a bro, fuck you
>>57151115credit where credit is due, a lot of these ideas were done way better by gen 5 (musharna, zebstrika, gigalith, crustle, trubbish but not garbodor)

>>57151323pokemon aren’t animals
You guys really are a perfect example of why this site, but especially this board, are getting flushed down the toilet
>>57151278lol kill yourself
>>57151387The website started dying because the literal trannies that took over the mod team ban for the dumbest fucking reasons on the boards that actually get any traffic these days. This board is dead because pokemon is straight trash now and nobody cares anymore.
>>57151387I wonder if autismo shitposters ever genuinely think “man shit feels much slower than it used to be” or if it never crosses their mind cause they’re on retard dopamine mode 24/7
>>57151412Baby's upset
>>57151415Palworld was flavor of the month
>>57151428Palworld got a big new update and it currently has 200,000 daily players, that's more than most AAA games on steam these days.
>delcatty
>>57151433yes delkitty is quite a me me
>>57151387Slowboarding isn't the worst thing. Shitposting generates a lot of activity, so a slow board is usually a peaceful one. Unfortunately, about 80% of anything here that isn't contained to specific threads is shitposting.
>>57150851How can the spikes be random when they're perfectly symmetrical?
I like Excadrill, it's one of the good oldies
>>57150851Sandshrew is straight up just a cartoon pangolin.
>>57151387>>57151889Yeah, low thread/board speeds aren't innately a problem, hell they're often pretty nice, it's just that /vp/ suffers from a very unfortunate case where things get slower because the vast majority of the people who want a non-disingenuous conversation about [literally anything] just get frustrated and leave for good
>>57151889Gen 8 caused irreparable damage to this board. Nobody talks about the games anymore, and this is the first year in nearly a decade with no new game whatsoever.
>>57150851>ambiguous looking creature like sandshrew/sandslashThey're just cartoon pangolins.
>>57150851the red markings are to show the multiple injuries he got you stupid retard
>>57151115yawnfag, we know your stupid bait.the leaks disproves that theory

>>57150851>instead of a unique ambiguous looking creature like sandshrew/sandslashWhich are also just cartoon animals.
>>57150851OLD GOODNEW BAD
>>57151054You know, the fun part is that Ponyta is covered in fire. It shouldn't be shaded like that since it produces light.
>>57151431Not really debunking the allegations there.Also for a "big" update it added almost nothing of worth.
>>57156045Yes. Nu-mon is shit.
>>57150851>>57150904I love both these mons
>>57156085Bro loves Excadrill :skull:
