No. 955: Flittle

 I deserve a flittle bit more

When I caught Flittle, I had no idea it would evolve into an ostrich. I thought it was some sort of Dumbo Octopus, or a weirdo Fairy thing. Maybe it's supposed to be an egg? With frills? 

I don't dislike the design, mind you, I'm just confused on how we go from here to Espathra. Flittle is cute, and in general I support making Pokemon that are just kinda Monsters without necessarily being based on a specific real-life animal.


Overall: 6/10

  1. *I* had no Idea It'd evolve Into an ostrich. I too understand the philosophy behind ambiguous monster designs, just never would have thought the two were related If not for the colors. and even with the colors, I never looked It up, so whenever I'd see Flittle I'd just wonder If It evolved or what

    design Is ok, I think the colors are fun but I don't like the mouth ( looks aquatic for what Is bird-adjacent ) and the triangle's kinda randem
