No. 863: Perrserker

MY LOVE FOR YOU IS LIKE A TRUCK
PERRSERKER

Fortunately, by not being Persian with a beard, Perrserker is free to actually be kinda sick. I don't feel tricked by the beard anymore, and the larger body balances it better. So I'm free to appreciate the sharp teeth, cool helmet & horns, and the fact that this is a fuzzy Steel-type. Which doesn't happen often, usual Steel is reserved for armored mofos and robots.

We also can't review this line without giving a shout-out to that time in Pokemon: The First Movie, when Team Rocket dressed up as vikings and the English dub made a joke about the Minnesota Vikings.

Does that help Perrserker's rating? Is is possible they were remembering that obscure gag when they designed him? Not really, but hey. More important is those neat Wolverine claws.


Overall: 7/10
