He has the "ugly tiger" in his sig because it's an essentially confirmed gen 7 Pokémon...
But anyways, they could simply stop making the Fire-starter basis on bipedal things.
If you don't want the pokemon to be bland to bland I don't see the problem with basing them off as such. Seriously, being quadraped doesn't make a lick of difference in the long run "But hey at least we have one!" who cares really, and quite frankly that argument really ticks me off everytime I see it. IMHO.
Yes I know, I didnt mean fox, I meant a nice quad lion Pokemon like the Sun legendary is, Renaman evo and Ninetails design were first to come to mind is all
Yes I know I just think realism isnt bad for Pokemon either, they dont need to overinnovate all the time and make their creatures unnatural(opinion) from the real world.
But then people still think Litten is boring for being the third lion pokemon in a row. I'm telling you in this fandom, whether biped or quadraped, they'd never be happy with what they get, there'll always be something for them to complain about, whether is something that's for better or worse. That's why I say it doesn't make a difference and it's a pointless want.
If we wanted just natural animals to play with the games would've just been based off the real world with us using real animals to fight each other, and if you thought PETA hated pokemon before...
Anyway, the unaturalness of pokemon is the best thing about pokemon. They're supposed to be creature form other world with myths and lores behind them. They're supposed to be creatures of wonder. I remember back in the day we never cared about stuff like uniqueness or bipedal creatures. We just had fun with cool monsters.
