ITT: Weird/surprising Pokemon sizes (based on their Pokedex entry, which can be taken as the average size).
>>59033731all Pokemon are of weird size and weight. Knowing most are manlets breaks the illusion.
>>59033731>Weird/surprising Pokemon sizes A rabbit pokemon being short is a suprise or the ladybug pokemon being as big as a rabbit is weird?
>>59033737If the anime had done the sizes better this wouldn't be a meme
>>59033748if the ching chongs at gamefreak had any sense of scale this wouldn't be a meme
>>59033737>A [FANFIC]meds
>>59033736According to how the dex been programmed in the early games, they can't be smaller than .1 m and heavier than 999 kg. Sure there are those that exceed the limit like with Pokémon Go, but the mainline games imply that the scales have their limit (otherwise, Cosmoem could've be as small as a bacteria while be as heavy as a neutron star).
>>59033778A-a-at least you can still ride it
>>59033805yeah and yet all are like 5'6 and 100 lbs
>>59033731they can all dynamax so who cares
>>59033784You lost btw
>>59033736my favorite thing is that mudsdale and glastrier have realistic draft horse mass which makes them some of the fattest fucks in the game
I know Haunter was always like 5' tall in the games, but it looks weird when put next to a human. I think it's because the anime shrunk him down a lot. I prefer the smaller size personally.
>>59034079The anime for comparison.
When I played BW I thought Excadrill was around 5 feet tall. Then I played XY and saw it was tiny.
>>59034079>>59034088https://daviddot.com/size
>>59034088>>59034079He's a gas anyway. His size and volume are unfixed.
>>59033778He's still one of the bigger starters, but you'd think he'd have more room for you to ride on him.
>>59034518Starters have gotten way too small
>>59034546Chikorita is way bigger than I imagined. It's the same size as Flareon.
>>59034546>the paldean starters are monletsOH NO NO NO
>>59034481It’s a fucking mole, what were you expecting?
>>59034561Scolipede is a bug and it's 8 feet tall.
>>59033731Is Golduck's listed size of 5'7" measured from head to tail or is it the actual height when measured from foot to head? If it's the latter, Golduck is a behemoth who's taller than I imagined.
It's weird to me that Noctowl and Decidueye are the same height, as the latter have a much more anthropomorphic owl design.
>>59034557Bulbasaur, Charmander, Chikorita, and Totodile are the only starters that aren't monlets
>>59034552it is a fucking sauropod
>>59034606Meganium is too, and it's microscopic compared to actual fully-grown sauropods.
>>59034586>You now realize Charizard and Golduck are the same height
>>59034557Tbf compared to a freak like Chikorita all starters look smallthe hoenn trio are as small as the paldean trio, for example
>>59034610bad genetics
>>59033778Alolan Exeggutor is fucking massive. The top of it with the heads and leaves alone are about the size of Torterra's entire body.
>>59034500>Haunter is BIGGER than gengarTradefags eternally BTFO
>>59034599bro where the FUCK is Squirtle?
Tyranitar being 6'7'' is such a travestysix seveeeeeeeen
>>59034621He got redeemed with his Mega's height.
>>59034631Squirtle is 1'8". It's a monlet, even if it's one of my favs
what in the world
Wonder why they chose to make Blaziken so big
>>59034654>>59034667>Mewtwo and Blaziken are Lebron James sized>Blastoise is Danny Devito sizedit feels weird
>>59034667Excluding Megas, Blaziken is the only fire starter over 6 feet tall. The new one is based on a Pomeranian, but I dunno if it will turn into an Arcanine-like big dog when it evolves.
>>59034687>Fire Goku is the same hight as a fucking crocodile
>>59033731
>>59034687shouldn't skeledirge be measured head to tail?
>>59034798It is. That's why it's only about 3 feet tall.
Charizard is a mexican
>>59034599Even Totodile looks like a midget next to Chikorita, didn't know that.
>>59034942truly the vegeta of pokemon o algo
>>59034546>>59034599Why did they make Chikorita and Bulbasaur so big?
>>59035028something about the -saur part should tip you off
This thing is almost 4 feet tall…
>>59033731I could pick up Nidoking and cuddle him
>>59034667Probably to emphasize the kicking aspect of the design.
>>59034654I forgot how stupid hoopa looked.
>>59034599the galar starters are TINY.

I’m surprised Zangoose is only 89 pounds considering how girthy his gut is.
>>59035272And round like this.>>59035659Thanks.
>>59035272>>59035721ii dont like that
Worst offenders: Primarina, Yanmega, Durant.
>>59035725Fans wanted beeg Pokemon, they get beeg ball.>>59035727Genesect, Jirachi, Crobat.
>>59035702You’re right, he needs to be fattened up
>>59035734Clamperl a midget.
>>59035734Red is pretty tall for a Japanese 11 year old boy.
>>59035734The legendary bird trio being that small instead of the size they were in the movie is particularly egregious.
Does anyone have that Sugimori quote/interview where he says the official pokemon sizes(in gen 1) were not decided by the pokemon designer artists(cant remember if he blames tajiri directly as the writer of the pokedex) and he says at times they were surprised how the scale doesn't match at all how they actually envisioned them originally
>>59035748You can change the model and their height.>>59035753I know! Forever seething.>>59035756Like the pink Kirby revelation.
>>59035753they were intentionally made bigger for that movie
>>59035788>>59035753Another reason why this is the best Pokemon movie.
>>59035788the art of the birds they made for that movie are a million times better than the 3D models ever -will- be.
>>59035798Mudsdale is like the only time they decided to make a Pokemon the actual size and weight of the creature it's based on.
>>59035756oh, so the sizes aren't made by the people who make the fucking monsters.that's something I've been assuming was true (and been saying on here) for awhile but yeah here it is from the horse's mouth.
>>59035798Steelix is probably hollow while mudsdale is dense.
>>59035808Mind you I'm pretty sure he was referring specifically to gen 1 so it wouldn't surprise me by now there's likely more communication and back and forth between artists and writers(?) to make sure everyone is on the same pageagain, if somebody knows where to find the actual interview a link would be nice
>>59035798Despite being almost twelve feet tall, Groudon is only 2094.4 lbs. Even the smallest elephants weigh twice that much. Always pissed me off they didn't put the effort in to get these right.
>>59035808Are they really too lazy to just note how big the Pokemon are when they create them?
>>59035844i've lost count of the amount of fakemon i've seen that don't list any sizes at all, it's something you need to keep in mind with laser focus.
>>59035788soul.
I was surprised to see Entei’s listed height as 6’11”. Does that seem like a fitting height for it?
>>59036302He’s pretty big in the movie.
