No. 666: Charizard

Man, Pokemon sure are horrible these days.

I mean, look at this shit. Why does he have random gold patches on him all over the place? Why not keep the belly the same color? In fact, the belly is THREE FRIGGING DIFFERENT COLORS. WHY WHY WHY.

I'm actually surprised by their restraint, not including any full bands, just little connector bars. Which are still obnoxious, but oh well. The while belly really sticks out, though. Either drop the gold, or drop the white. There's no reason to run 4 main colors in a design that is essentially "this is a dragon with fire on his tail". Why did that need to be made more complex than it ought to be.

As for the spikes on the thighs... eh, I like spikes, but they feel random and out of place. They feel like they're trying too hard to be badass, just kinda sticking more things on there until the damn thing either collapses of over-design, or suddenly becomes badass.

Guess which one this fell into.


Overall: 2/10

  1. although not all the recent pokemon are badly designed, charizard would suck if it was like the one in the picture. maybe he would look like that if he had been made in 4th gen
