Nearly said R/B/Y but it was too strong of a statement for me, I couldn't commit myself to it.

I got that out of the way. My favorite Pokemon designs are up to GSC. It seems that afterwards they were running out of species to design after.

It's not to say we have no good looking designs after the Golden and Silver age. I think Pokemon like Zangoose, Luxray and Skutank look very good. I always waited for a lion and skunk deigns. And those two D/P pokemon are on my team. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and though there are many stinkers but you gotta admit some look good. Especially the ones that are evolutions of old Pokemon like Sneasle. Weavile looks identicle to Sneasle but with some more features. And goofy looking ones like Gligar became badass when evolved to Gliscor. And Lucario is the only D/P pokemon worthy to be playable in Brawl.

I do think Bidoof is a waste of space.

I won't vote, yet.

Well, my ability to appreciate every last one of the 493 current species/forms comes mainly from looking at Pokebeach.com's incredibly complete galleries of high-quality card scans, which made all of the modern Pokemon look infinitely worthier as Pokemon designs than what the normal Sugimori images and game sprites would give the impression of for most people. =)

If I was really forced to choose, though, I would reverse the scale and say it's really the first generation that's the most "boring" to me personally, simply because those have been around for over a decade and are more "tired" in a sense than any of the newer ones. Species like Machop, Abra, and Drowzee aren't quite as interesting to me as Bronzor, Spiritomb, and Lumineon. (But that's also why I love all the evolved forms the 1st generation received in later gens.) And design-wise I definitely prefer Milotic over Gyarados, Walrein over Dewgong, the Starly line over the Pidgey line, etc. But those are just my opinions, obviously. :P

For the future: Over 1000 Pokemon species FTW!!! :D :D :D

BTW: What does D.N.E. stand for/mean?

Usually I respect other people's opinions, but not this time.

I wonder if the next gen will complete 600 species...

Lach said it herself (himself?) in the other topic: A Pokemon specie design cannot be objectively stated to be terrible because there'll be fans who like even the ones most of the fanbase hates. It's all subjective. :rolleyes:

(Let's see... Bidoof, and this is the truth now; I would not have thought people'd find ANYTHING objectionable about its design if I weren't part of ToK. I think it works as a common-type Poke because there aren't any other big-toothed beavers ANYWHERE in the franchise.)

Sound the horn and call the cry: "How many of them can we make die?"

I find the ones beyond G/S/C to be utterly lacking in creativity, with a few exceptions.

Adachi is not amused.

It seemed like they were running out of ideas come R/S/E and beyond, so I went G/S/C. There are exceptions to this rule - Lucario comes to mind, as well as some of the starters and things like Luxray. Hell, I like Bidoof, if only because he looks too stupid not to love.

But really, the earlier generations were where it's at.

^ My sentiments exactly. :D

And I adore Bidoof since it fits its niche perfectly. 8D

Anything after G/S/C for me. Like most people have said, there are some exceptions, but a lot of the newer Pokemon are kinda dumb.

I'd definitely like to see more talk on messages boards about the Pokemon nowadays that people agree are pretty cool. =D

Somebody once said she didn't like how some of the newer ones were replacing the older ones, mainly Milotic replacing Gyarados. That's the way it was gameplaywise in the 3rd gen, sure, but GameFAQs about the 4th gen metagame reveal that Gyarados has beaten Milotic back to be one of the most fearsome competitors. :o
