So your saying Blaziken is a larger version of Torchic? Honestly there's no resemblance there so why does there have to be here. Plus this generation has been shown to have more major changes than previous generations so why not? Also losing appendages doesn't really say much about them being real or fake, just saying

The anime artwork was incredibly blurry so I can't argue the mouth, but as for the line there is a color change there in the artwork.
