No. 051: Dugtrio

BOING! BOING! BOING! WHACK! WHACK! WHACK!

I guess their thinking was, "If you liked Diglett, you'll love three of them!"

Except that I don't. Dugtrio is lazy. Lazy lazy lazy. It doesn't even make any sense. Why can one Diglett turn into 3 Digletts close together? Why can't I just catch three Digletts and put them all in one pokeball, turning them into a Dugtrio? Why can't I add more and more Digletts, ad infinitum, until I end up with a super-mass of Digletts, Dugtropolis?

Also, Dugtrio raises even more unnerving questions about what it looks like under the surface. Interwtined snakes? One body? Three muscular men holding eachother close?

Dugtrio isn't horrible, just an example of lazy Japanese game designers.

Overall: 3/10
