Wait are saying some pokemon are based on real world animals!?!?!
And some were once people…
Yeah what the fuck mr mime?
Although if you had to pick a person to kidnap and enslave to fight your battles, I’d pick a mime too. Who are they gunna tell?
I’m backing out of this conversation…
Alternative answer: Yeah, so?
All media is informed by other media. All media copies parts of other media, often en masse. There’s nothing wrong with incremental improvements.
Well, some media is more blatantly a copy than others are. The character designs in palworld are pretty obviously a blatant copy, even though the gameplay is more on the original side
Why is that a problem?
I never said it was? It’s a problem if we pretend it’s not true that the character designs are a ripoff, but it’s clear that people are enjoying the game and I don’t see an issue with that in the slightest
of what pokemon is Lovander a clone?
Salazzle? Idk only female salandit can evolve into one and they’re known for having reverse harems, but that’s a bit of a stretch of an association given how, uh, overt Lovander behavior seems to be, assuming that’s the one that literally wants to fuck humans to crossbreed with them lol
Asking for a friend
What about Dinossom? Can’t say that isn’t a Bayleef/Meganium clone.
I mean, Meganium is closer to a Brachiosaurus, while Dinossom would be closer to a Corythosaurus… otherwise, yeah, they’re both plant/flower dinosaurs.
Broncherry isn’t supposed to be some sauropod too? The name makes me think of “brachiosaur” for some reason. Also the long neck.
