If this is the best of what Legends Arceus has to offer, then I'm going to skip it entirely and brace myself for the worst in generation 9. Out of all these leaks, the only Pokémon who doesn't invoke feelings of disgust is Hisuian Samurott.

At least this taking place in the past implies that all of these things are extinct.
 
I definitely feel like the Pokemon designers are either running out of ideas or don't care anymore. That's not to say I think all of these new guys are ugly, though. I just think they could so easily have been made better or cooler looking. I'm pretty happy with the 3 starters, Arcanine, Sneasel (not the evo though), Ursaring, and the Basculin line.

The only ones I outright hate from the leaks upon sight are the new creepy genie, sneasel's new evo, and the fucked up Dialga and Palkia. Palkia especially would look so much less retarded if it had arms so it could be a centaur thing.

I can sort of see what they were trying to do, making it longer and well more "weasel" like, but it just looks like an ugly ape. Should have looked more like Mienshao (add more of a snout, thicken the neck, shorten the limbs).

Also that Typhlosion looks like some emo furry's fursona. Fire/dark maybe? Would have preferred a fire/rock type, trying to keep with the volcano theme a bit.
 
>Double amputee centaur Palkia
Okay, this is something I wasn't wanting to find out is real today. Christ dude.
 
The Sneasel evo deadass looks like a Sonic character, or even worse, a Sonichu character. It is too goddamn lanky, and humanoid looking.

Fire/Ghost actually.
That's actually pretty cool, ngl. Wish it didn't look permanently self-conscious, but okay then.

Edit: Hisuian Samurott is Water/Dark and Hisuian Decidueye is Grass/Fighting. Not bad, but part of me feels like they should've been switched. According to this, the rest of the typings are as follows:

H-Growlithe (Fire/Rock)
H-Arcanine (Fire/Rock)
H-Voltorb (Electric/Grass)
H-Electrode (Electric/Grass)
H-QuiIfish (Dark/Poison)
H-Quilfish Evo (Dark/Poison)
H-Sneasel (Poison/Fighting)
H-Sneasel Evo (Poison/Fighting)
H-Lilligant (Grass/Fighting)
H-Zorua (Normal/Ghost)
H-Zoroark (Normal/Ghost)
H-Braviary (Psychic/Flying)
H-Sliggoo (Dragon/Steel)
H-Goodra (Dragon/Steel)
H-Avalugg (lce/Rock)
H-Ursaring Evo (Normal/Ground)
Wyrdeer (Normal/Psychic)
Basculegion (Water/Ghost)
Kleavor (Bug/Rock)

My only take away is that there seems to be no new Fairy-type Pokémon, which seems very strange to me. Unless that currently unknown Genie Pokémon, or the Palkia and Dialga variants are supposed to have it, of course.

Lilligant, Electrode, Ursaring, Samurott and Decidueye look ok but Arcanine, Sliggoo and Goodra are definitely my favorites.
 
You know, on closer inspection, I think Hisuian Tylphlosion looks okay. I wish they had gone for a darker color palette, and changed up the design more, but its sort of awkward, tired, sleepy, stoner face is growing on me.

I think it looks kinda cute. I like it.
No. First, they took away the perpetual flames. Then, they took the absolute anger this thing had on its face.

This limp stoner is a disgrace. Give me my mad badger back!

Of course it does. It's Typhlosion.

t: someone who has never used Typhlosion, aside from a PMD run.

Edit: According to the leaker, it looks way better when it has its flames out in battle, and that render doesn't do it justice.
Same. Memes aside, Hisuian Typhlosion is starting to grow on me. I just hope H-Typhlosion has a large mane of ghostly flames.
 
I haven't played a pokemon game since XY, but I always kept in the loop because at least a lot of the designs were neat. This is just fucking painful, these are some of the laziest and unappealing creature designs not just for pokemon but I've ever seen in any media. The palkia and dialga are obviously atrocious, but the ones that get me are Electrode, Samurott, and Arcanine, and Goodra. They're just a half step above recoloring them. There is no actual redesign, they are not functionally different than their originals. And there are so many infinitely better fan designs, this is just fucking pathetic. Idk how many of you are familiar with Pokemon Insurgence, but it's got a ton of great examples of how to do retyped pokemon

I think GF has genuinely stopped putting any effort in and just OK whatever shit gets made. It's going to sell 20million copies so who fucking cares amirite?

You will never be a real genie. You have no gorilla arms, you have no moustache, you have no ring. You are an eight generation mon twisted by Turner and Masuda into a crude mockery of pokemania’s perfection.
All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back people mock you. Anons are disgusted and ashamed of you, your Showdown “friends” laugh at your ghoulish appearance behind closed doors.
Japanese players are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of evolution have allowed them to sniff out burikko with incredible efficiency. Even nugen species who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to a Jap. Your color palette is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a drunk guy home with you and a Legend Arceus copy, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your diseased, infected movepool.
You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the stats spreads creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.
Eventually it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll buy a rope, tie a noose, put it around your neck, and float into the cold abyss. Your trainer will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment. They’ll release you from a pokeball marked with your dex number, and every PKHex user for the rest of eternity will know a mon is meant to be injected there. Your body will decay and go back to Home, and all that will remain of your legacy is a Smogon entry that is unmistakably PU.
This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.
At least the snake scarf is cool. Although, it does begs the question: if she (assuming it's female) is one of the genies, where the hell is she in modern times?
I like it I just found the copy pasta funny, though it being so different from the 3 other genies is weird compared to something like regigigas compared to the regitrio
probably still chilling in sinnoh while her bros moved to Unova
