No. 253: Grovyle

Leaner, meaner, greener.

I feel like Grovyle is trying too hard to be cool. He's got razor sharp leaves all over the place, and is sneering like a jerk. Also why that green belt, that just looks stupid.

I've always admired Grass-types for growing not only their animal features, but their foliage as well. I mean, I was impressed with Hoppip's evolution of a dandelion, for crying out loud. But Grovyle? That forehead leaf comes out of nowhere, the ambiguous fat tails become leaves, and he sprouts wrist slashers. I'll admit I like the wrist-blades, but the rest feels a little sudden, for some reason.

Overall: 4/10
