Oh, what a clever pun for a name! It's like they just took an adjective and spelled it wrong!
Lame name aside, Koffing is actually pretty good. He just kinda works.
Koffing is basically a tiny, sentient planet, whose craters produce gas, has a fairly cool skull-and-crossbones tatoo, and, judging by facial expression, is high 100% of the time.
Also, he's purple. (remember this! purple = poison type!)
A good example of a completely original idea, with no real base in reality, that actually comes out okay.
Overall: 7/10
To me? It always looked like a cloud.
ReplyDeleteSmogon is a much better name
ReplyDeleteI think it's the german one, and even then, it would still work as a english name? Smog-on, not really good, but sure beats coffing
