@ psyburn: Yeah, I was incredibly tired last night, I'm not quite sure why I thought that was a viable argument. Regardless, its obvious that they aren't "trying to make us forget" about previous generations, they want to give us a fresh outlook and experience to the series. And just because they have a new version of the same thing doesn't mean we're all going to forget about the original-- I'll continue to use Stantler mainly because it's makes an excellent Thief poke with its Frisk ability.
Also, to the discussion about food pokes, Bidoof's nose and teeth sorta look like a cupcake, does that count?
