>>59065469which pokemon is this???
>>59065453Do you believe the pokemon world has gooners
>>59065473It's his OC, Gyaoon.
>>59065473Gyaaon? You know, early prototype kaijumon that got cut, apparently twice because it seemingly was the second creature designed for Capsule Monsters, didn't have a space that early in the index when it became Pokemon, was apparently up for an internal design poll with a new index position slightly later in development (but before Atsuko Nishida came in to make more cutemons), and didn't make it to the final game.
>>59065453What a cute gal.
>>59065504True
>>59065473rhydon that got covered in paint and was misidentified as a mysterious pokemon which later became a popular cryptid that now fuels tourism in the area.
>>59065473Kinda like those fursonas based on nondescript nonexistent dogs. This is what the platonic ideal form of a pokemon is in-universe, something ambiguously pokemon shaped. Same for those symbols that represent a general shape of pokemon in gen 1.At least that's what I always felt
God westerners should never be allowed to design pokemon
>>59065469Always felt pokemaniacs were more about making fun of kaiju autists
