"what happened to pokemon designs" is you're 40 years old now, you are no longer the target audience

Honestly the Pokedex does need a thorough purge. Get rid of all of the fap bait, the "humans in a costume", and the gimmickmon (that includes all mega evolutions).

I don't think the humanoids are so bad, just overrepresented and maybe a little too human (contrast Mewtwo)

And the gimmicks are fun angery

Sprigatito becoming a humanoid cat is top 10 worst gamefreak decision

I honestly like the final stage's design (mostly the mask), but I do definitely agree that there's a massive over-representation of humanoids in starter lines generally
