When we heard there would be regional forms for the new tropical region, I don't think anyone expected new Ice types.
But by God, am I glad we got them. Alolan Vulpix doesn't have a neat spin on it like Sandshrew, where becoming an igloo made perfect sense, but it still looks perfect anyway. I could totally believe this was the original concept, a little snowy fox. The 6 tails lose a little distinction, but they end up looking like a snow drift, so that even works out. If every Alolan form were reinventions of this quality, I'd be a very happy man.
I just feel sorry for poor little Alolan Vulpix, it is pure and adorable and needs to be protected from the internet deviantart creeps. I know it's happening, I can feel it in my bones. Knock it off, you guys. I said STOP.
Overall: 8/10 -> 10/10
I clicked the link to check the original review: that one is an 8/10. Faulty memory, typo, or revision?

ReplyDeleteDo you mean in the five seconds between Alolan Exeguttor and Alolan Vulpix? :P
Nice review, this thing is cute as hell.
Possibly my favourite Alolan form. I don't normally buy toys for myself, but I just had to get a figure of this little guy for my desk. So cute! 😊
