Game Freak is so out of ideas.

Game Freak never "ran out" of ideas. There have always been shitty Pokemon and interesting ones. You are letting nostalgia blind you to this.

Spoilered for lots of images.

there are the same rehashes

Oh, what, TWO wormy bugs? And they both cocoon, even though bees don't do that? Try harder, Game Freak.


Oh, it's the same thing twice, but colored different. Thanks so much, you guys.


Wow, so glad they added these when we already had Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee. They contribute so much!


Hooray, two Pikachus that are shittier and exist solely to show off the Double Battle gimmick! Badly!

unapologetically terrible filler

What the fuck is this shit? An oblong semicircle with a face, great. Oh, my mistake, the evolution is THREE semicircles.


Whoa, I guess between that and Magneton we ran low on glue budget! Sorry, guys, we can only attach TWO into one "evolution" now!


Oh, good! 26 letters and two punctuation marks, all of them fucking useless! THANKS GAME FREAK.

Bonus Lack Of Ideas Grab Bag!

Wow so creative!


NO SEE IT'S A THING THAT LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER THING DUDE


That eye doesn't match the art style at all! What is this, Yu-Gi-Oh?


Have you ever fucking seen a sheep in your life?

Truly amazing.


What the fuck is this shit? Why does it have a feather?


Overdesigned much???

and even plagiarism of other series.

Good old, super-original Metroid Prime! They'd never reuse a concept from another Nintendo game.

I will go enjoy my keyring and hedgehog knight but you're free to keep wallowing in nostalgia I guess.
