No. 124: Jynx

yeah this is a weird one

Jynx creeps me out. The boobs, the lips, the bleached hair, everything.

Originally, Jynx had a completely black face, but people got upset, so they changed it to dark purple, which makes it less racist, but just as mind-searingly terrifying.

Also, ice/phsychic what the hell? That's such a random type. The Psychic is kind of the go-to type for when they make something really strange and have no idea what to do with it, but why Ice type? There's nothing about Jynx that suggests Ice. Nothing. And why does Sweet Kiss put people to sleep? That's just messed up.

Jynx makes no sense, and is probably going to scare some children.


Overall: 1/10

  3. You know what they should have done? They should have made her a Viking princess, complete with a cool helmet or something. That would have been cool, and it would have justified the Ice-type. But as it is, it's just a creepy lady in a dress pretending to be a Pokémon.

  4. Jynx is actually based on the Yama-Uba, a Japanese mythological mountain witch. Since it's a witch, it's Psychic, and mountains get cold and snowy near the top, right. Despite that, Jynx is still awful.
