[@IgnitedQuils]

I get Bayleef’s final design was WAY different than the beta design (the beta design was a flower with a face and Chikorita + Meganium’s beta designs were nearly the same as their final versions) but it’s personally an upgrade over Meganium due to the long leaf collar. Calyrex is my least favorite due to its appearance and its stats and movepool are underwhelming unless you make it the Shadow/Ice rider. Goodra is my least favorite due to it not standing out much and performing the worst out of all the pseudo legendaries competitively; yet I have hopes for the Hisuian form. I like Salamence as it looks fierce to me, and it’s also a salamander dragon which completed its goal. Alolan Dugtrio is underwhelming, and sad how even when Unfezant got Brave Bird, it doesn’t stand out compared to the other regional birds. Even Pidgeot which could’ve been like it has a mega.
