Again, weird dex numbers. I have no explanation. They were probably drunk.
Clearly, this would become Aipom. In the process, it would stop looking so lemurian, and become more simian. Aipom is a freaky freak, but Tael looks like a friend. Actually, I'd quibble with that art - maybe Tael was always meant to be a cat? a cat with thumbs??? I rather like the fact that his tail-hand is an honest-to-goodness cartoon glove, instead of Aipom's strange little fingies.
Overall: 8/10
This I can sorta get behind.
ReplyDeleteAipom used to freak me out as a kid, but it has pretty much become my favorite Pokémon today. It's weird in such a way where it just works for me and there's just nothing else like it.
So this is just a case of tastes being different
"Aipom is a freaky freak" and "little fingies" makes me chuckle
ReplyDeleteAipom always reminded me of that glove world spongebob episode lol
nothing objectively wrong with the work of the artist, but I feel It's off from the sprite. which Is not their fault of course. It's like what, 20 pixels? this Is to just say I prefer the design of the sprite
