No. 407: Roserade

Remember Roselia? roses for hands, like pom-poms?

Well now meet her sexy older sister, Roserade! Except take out that "sexy" bit, that shouldn't apply to Pokemon. I don't know what I was thinking there.

Roserade has an entire frigging bouquet for each hand, a word which is apparently much more French than I remembered. Seriously, there's like 2 or 3 pointless letters in there. Anyway, Roserade has a little mask thing around its eyes, and a classy white rose for hair. I like it a lot!

If Roselia was a cheerleader or something, then Roserade, with her cape, mask, tapered legs, and bouquets, is like some sort of magician's assistant or something. Also, that little gold color? Roselia actually had a gold streak down the front, so even that little splash of color is justified! This is just a really good example of a new evolution done right. Roselia really felt underdeveloped, and now here's an excellent final form for it. As they say in France, Bravo.


Overall: 10/10

  2. to me, Europe is just a big party where everyone hangs out and talks in funny languages that aren't English and so may as well be the same language.

    apologies to any European readers out there.
