I dont remember bug pokemon sucking that much though, yeah Caterpie and Weedle and their second forum, sure, but they also evolved quickly and Butterfree and Beedrill had pretty good movesets at the time I think.

[@Chimera-man-man]

@@olliolivine9770 Butterfree and Beedrill have always been pretty bad on their own but bug types overall had a lot of issues. Biggest issue that plagued Bug Types was actually a lack of decent STAB moves, cause all of the bug type moves were pretty bad (except for Megahorn, which is why Heracross was so good). In Gen 4 they released a lot of powerful bug moves but it took them until Gen 5 to really capitalise on that with a bunch of powerful bug Pokemon to use them.

[@DemBigOlEyes]

@@Chimera-man-man Personally I hated bug types because most of their designs aren't particularly creative. I don't blame them of course, since having to create a pokemon while bound to a design by form and nature is difficult, it still makes all Bud pokemon look similar due to having to follow this structure. Galisopod and Genesect are probably the only bug types I can think of that actually look tough and unique. And Vespequeen is the only one that utilizes gender effectively in its evolutionary line (by that I meant its overall design and lore relevance to its own species, rather than creating a different appearance simply because of its gender).

[@blueheaven1048]

The bug Pokémon in gen 5 were killer, all cool and different designs, pretty good in battle and made me come to love Bug types. So much so that the Bug type is my favourite and I adore using gen 5 Bugs on my team.

It’s fun to hear different takes on the designs, and your gen 4 takes are valid and I had fun thinking about them since my takes on gen 4 are very positive, you helped me analyze them a bit more and help me find either that I over-rated them or that I under-loved them!

I'm sure everyone has heard it a thousand times, but Cobalion, Virizion, Terrakion, and Keldeo are based on the main characters of The Three Musketeers. Cobalion is Athos, the cool, calm, and collected leader of the group. Virizion is Aramis, the romantic, poetic, and somewhat feminine one. Terrakion is Porthos, the large, brawny, and bombastic one. And Keldeo is d'Artagnan, the young newcomer who isn't ever actually a musketeer at all. Knowing that, their designs click a lot more, and after you read the book you really start to see the characters in the Pokémon. I personally think they nailed it with those designs.

[@edwardnygma8533]

? We read the wrong books or you didn't take into account The Man in the Iron mask whereby then, D'Artagnan was already captain of the musketeers. Even if we discount that book and just go back to the three musketeers, I'm pretty sure he was made a musketeer by the end. I think the design of Keldeo is just meant to express his inexperience compared to the main trio.

I honestly have no idea why people hated on gen 5 so much back in the day. A lot of these are incredibly solid.
