Cringe or based
>>59123434
>>59123434some of the few great gen 9 designs
>>59123434buckethead looks dumb but the other 3 are cool
>>59123434based on cringe
>>59123434Chi-Yu and Chien-Pao are great, don't really care for the other two but they aren't bad. Pretty good line all things considered.
I really dislike them. I think ting lu could have been alright if they dropped the "literally made of mud" aspect. I just don't think it looks good in the pokemon artstyle.
>>59123434Extremely based>cool concept>pretty mysterious, their lore in not explicit>unique powers>clever combination of items and animals>evil but not comically, and no misunderstood bullshit
>>59123434chien-pao is an ok design but the other three are trash
>>59123437>thenmajestic birds, located right in some dungeon, feel like both a boss and a reward, a huge powerspike compared to you're gen 1 shitmon>nowGlup Shitto
>>59123810>majestic birds Moltres is a rubber chicken lol
>>59123434Ting-Lu and Chi-Yu are top 10 designs in the franchise for me. I don't care about the snail and I don't like the weasel at all, it looks less like a cursed artifact and more a generic animal pokemon.
>>59123434Meh
>>59123533moose made of earth isn't a bad concept i think they just fumbled the execution. you're right that it might benefit from a different artstyle
>>59124196I heard that the weasel is actually the sword in its mouth. Haven't played the game its from so idk if it's true.
>>59123434Easily the best set of unrestricted/sub legendaries since Gen 3. One of Gen 9’s few bright spots.
Wo chien looks so cool
>>59123434horrible designs, abysmal catch conditions, disgusting theme, but le funny one-shot fish was entertaining and Chi-Yu's shiny makes it look like actual shit so they got two positives from me
>>59123437Old is better. Kanto got it right. Simple is better.
>>59123434Chien-Pao may be among my top 10 fav designs now. And the lore is funny.Not as big on the other three but they're all pretty cool legendaries for what they represent.
>>59124262Correct. All 4 are cursed items with their "bodies" made of their respective elementEven in-game you can see that when Chien Pao attacks some of the snow flies off its "tail"
>>59123810>>59125256Bad faith argument
>>59125358>>59124262This. The fish is actually the beads that make up its eyes and the rest of the body is fire they produce. The cat is actually the two halves of a broken sword that make up its teeth and the rest of it is just snow. The moose is actually the bowl on its head and the rest of it is soil. The snail is the tablets on its shell with the rest being leaves. They all are cursed objects that create a body out of material to carry them about.
>>59123434BBBBBBBB-BBBBBB-BBBBBBBASSSSSSED CHI YU
>>59123434I like the fish
>>59125250>Disliking the themeTunak Tunak Tun is great
>>59123434I like them, Chi-Yu's my favourite. They're probably my favourite legendaries or mythicals from Gen IX.
They're not even using "Glup Shitto" in this thread correctly. Whadda fuq man.I never got why Glup Shitto took off. Someone's happy to see some obscure characters show up, whoopie, that's totally a thing to mock.Anyways, I think gen 3 struck the right balance with simplicity and lore, at least when it comes to the non-box legendaries.Not answering all of the questions is kinda important to retain a sense of mystique.
>>59123434chien-pao and fish are cool
>>59123434ruin'd
>>59123434BasedIt's nice having OC legendaries. Not based on irl mythology shit. Just cool original lore legendaries We need more pokemon like that, just cool mons not based or inspired by some job/gimmick/mythology/object irl
>>59126624It’s no coincidence the best legendaries are original and not based on mythology shit
>>59126033 (Me)>>59126366>>59126477>>59126616Man, I don't even know WHY I like Chi-yu so much... But apparently everyone else agrees!
