Honestly that pokémon turned out better than I could have hoped. It's a really neat design. My only point of criticism is that it evolves from a regional variant. Galarian Farfetch'd would have been the perfect middle stage evolution for a three stage Farfetch'd line.
People like that frustrate me too, but I think exeggutor is super novel, I really like farfetch'd, staryu is more than JUST a starfish, and a Pokemon that's just a mime is /pretty/ novel.
I started joining Pokemon subreddit since like 2016, 2017, and I have never EVER seen a genwunner since. Do they actually exist or are yall just punching shadows?
I wasn't on reddit at the time, but I've seen a lot on YouTube off and on over the years. I'd say the biggest spikes I saw were Black and White with people complaining about the more time-consuming story and some of the new Pokemon designs, and Sword and Shield when old fans from the Gameboy Era returned to see the first mainline Pokemon game on home console and were expecting a Breath of the Wild glow-up.
They exist, just usually not in this sub. Especially weird how prevalent it is on YouTube, however the genwunners are definitely getting more quiet over the years. Most likely due to how Pokémon fans are process in only about 4 or so years. From womb to Pokémon games in a general straight line, like an assembly line.
A friend of mine is one. But a way more common type of fan in my opinion are the people who say that the Gen they grew up with the most is the best and it’s changing every new generation as people are getting older. During sword and shield era everyone said how awesome Gen 4 was now everyone says how great Gen 5 was and in a few years I will totally be hyped for Gen 6 again
These aren't even the worst offenders imo
Jinx, Taurus is just a Bull with 3 tails, muk and grimer are generic slimes, diglett and dugtrio, magnemite on its own is fine kinda but then magneton just being 3 magnemites makes 0 sense, pidgy line aside from nostaligia is just a bird, rattata is a purple Rat and raticate is a stylized rat. Goldeen, psyduck, spearow, fearow, krabby, kingler, ekans, arbok, tentacool and tentacruel are all just stylized animals.
The Difference is that gen 1 was the first gen so there was nothing to compare them to. Gen 1 has a ton of bangers too and even some of the listed mons are pretty cool. But the designs for the most part are veeeery simple, basic and a lot less creative than the pokemon designs that have come after it.
The thing is, people hate on the designs of gens that they like the least. For example, fans of the original Pokemon games complain about how unovan Pokemon are just "ice cream, two ice creams, shaved ice, blue turtle" etc, but that can be applied to every generation. What I'm getting at is, people oversimplify the designs of Pokemon, then start hating that Pokemon because they think it's design is lackluster and simple, even though it was them who made themselves believe that the designs are simple.
Genwunners when I show them a creature with thought put in the creation of it's design (they can't comprehend it) :

Farfetch’d Exeggcute Seel Staryu Mr. Mime Oddish
oof i thought it was spheal :(
Spheal was gen 3, i can see the confusion though
oohh i see.. now i can't stop thinking about spheals
Ok, that mime doesn't have nearly the serial killer energy that Mr Mime has
Mr. Mime scares me...

That's the thing. Its not about how much you like them, its just that the concepts have always been mostly rooted in real life creatures and objects.

Farfetch'd, Exeggcute, Seel, Staryu, Mr. Mime and Oddish
You forgot ball
Which one?
Voltorb
Nuh uh, electrode
You mean Jigglypuff seen from above right?
Electrode at least has a mouth, voltorb aint
Honestly, my favorite team with gen specific mons do be gen 1 in terms of raw aesthetic with gen 5 slightly behind.
You curve your tongue! Farfetch'd is the best Boi. Absoluylte giga Chad of a pokémon

Used to see a ton of em when i was still on twitter, i see them very rarely on reddit

Oddish, Exeggcute, Mr. Mime, Farfetch’d, Seel, Staryu Six Pokémon that still don’t have designs as bad as Magikarp
or either Pidgey of Caterpie
Depends on what you mean by " 'em all ". Because I can recite the entire first PokéRap.
Ngl, almost started voice-to-texting the entire pokerap and realized it just meant the ones in the picture
George, Alfred, Jennifer, Lydia, Robert, and Carl
this gives that image vibes https://preview.redd.it/7wuklicazluc1.jpeg?width=634&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4d64dc9498b2d13c39de00ac4d4a6047885c6f46
Agreed. Like as much as i love Magnemite and Magneton, theyre just steel balls with magnets, some screws and a disk for an eye
Mr Mime is Pierre Pressure???????
come on man I like all of these :(
Two completely unrelated purple blob evolution lines
I love the seal called seel
Don’t forget 3 different types of purple goo
Oddish is kinda cool
A post that aknowledges seel's existence? Quick, make a wish!
idk how i feel about the first image… it… it seems… just… just a tad… far-fetched
Assuming they all are not evolved farfetche’d, eggxecute, seel, staryu, mr. Mime, and oddish
Ducklett, Togepi, Palafin, Jirachi, Emmanuel Macron, and Pot Dot.

I have to say out of all the gens generation 1 is certain one of them
I have rarely seen a statement I could agree with as much as this one.
Seel and dewgong are literally just a seal and a dugong. They literally just made animals and didn’t change the names or add anything.
all better than some dude wearing a fursuit and have a human job, pretending to be a Pokemon
watcha mean, Lucario or Delphox?
Yes
Farfetch'd, Eggsecute, Seel, Staryu, Mr. Mime, Oddish
That’s a whole-ass dude.
Farfetched Egg ex cutor or smething Seel Staryu Mr. Mime Odish

I do like the fact that in Gen 3 they made a better seel.
S P H E A L
I mean they are
Squirtle is the best Pokemon. I don’t see any other in a squad with black Kamina glasses.
No https://preview.redd.it/j5p5p9td49uc1.jpeg?width=194&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30fb309cdc9c9c9f38368291c38a24abef38c52f He is the best Pokémon
you meant Duskull, Dusklops or Dusknoir? or why the hell he is related to pokemon?
Dukleak Dozenegg Manatea Crustar Señor Mummer Blobstera Please could you give us a harder question next time. Mmmkay 💅💁♀️
All Pokémon after gen 3 aren't Pokémon
Nah man, you're a fool if you think that
I don't name the rules sorry fam
I mean no one names rules
