RE: Pokemon that look better than thier evolved forms
I have always preferred Porygon2 to Porygon and Porygon-Z. I think it's because:
1. Porygon2 is from the Johto Region
2. Porygon2 has a sleeker design that Porygon, and Porygon-Z is overrated
3. Porygon2 is the beastiest beast that ever beasted when used properly

RE: Pokemon that look better than thier evolved forms
I like Rhydon a lot more than Rhyperior. Electabuzz over Electivire, Magmar over Magmortar (It looks like a robot kind of), Charmeleon over Charizard, Dragonair over Dragonite (To be a final dragon, it's face looks a bit... innocent).
Wartortle over Blastoise, but i love Blas, too. Magikarp over Gyarados (ok, joking), Polowhirl over Politoed. Vigoroth over Slaking, Piloswine over mamoswine (It looks childish), Slowpoke over Slowking.
Those are all i can think of, right now.

Duskull, Ivysaur, Tepig, Magmar, and Vigoroth all have disappointing evos. Magmortar's face and weird swirly fire designs on its torso ruin the cannon arms for me. Also Poliwrath's a joke. Good job GF, you made it a bigger Poliwhirl with angry eyes.

I hope the FIRE/Fighting part was an accident.Delta Nite said:
I don't see anything sumo-like on Croconaw. If anything, its patterns looked more like Flinstone-esque cartoony caveman fur attire.GoobieDoob said:

I think we can all agree on Duskull. The heck is a Dusclops? Thing is hideous, I remember thinking Duskull looked cool as a kid, now, seeing Dusclops and Dusknoir, I can't help but think they dropped the ball there.

Magby's Japanese name is Buby, so it's based on a Booby... somehow.
over
I prefer Kadabra over Alakazam, because it has a huge puffy tail, then it just disappears when it evolves. (Anyone notice how Kadabra looks like it's trying to wash a window with its spoon hand?)
over
It's been said before that GF ran out of ideas for a samurai seal line, but here is how they could of improved Samurott (It's big!):
over
I like Nidorino more than Nidoking because to me Nidorino looks a bit tougher and he was one of the few Pokémon (if not the only) that had all of his Gen 1 sprites look good.
over
I like Pidgeotto more than Pidgeot because Pidgeot's head feathers are too ridiculously long and IMO, they tried too hard to make him look elegant, but instead made him look like an uncooler version of Pidgeotto.
over
I've always liked Haunter than Gengar, because to me is the perfect Ghost type, as he's just a head and neck with dislocated hands, which i way creepier than than Gengar, because he looks like a circle with short arm, legs and long ears and past gen 2, I don't find him ghost-like enough.
over
I really don't like Leavanny, as it's too happy and girly looking and it's weird seeing Ash's male Swadloon evolve into the walking sewing-kit, Leavanny.
BTW, am I the only one who likes Grotle more than Turtwig, Simisage more than Pansage, Monferno more than Chimchar and Fraxure more than Axew?

RE: Pokemon that look better than thier evolved forms
Nope. I like Grotle more than Turtwig and Torterra, Simisage is cooler/more biker looking than Pansage, dur, and Monferno just looks overall cooler than its other evolutions. Who doesn't like Fraxure more than Axew? Besides, Haxorus would've looked just as cool as Fraxure if they would've made is shorter and fatter. A little chubby ax slaying fully evolved dragon. That's what I wanted. Not... that skinny dragon thing.

Arm cannons can't save a bland design.
And actually, now that you mention it, I don't like the arm cannons either. It's like they said, "hey, this guy's design is pretty lackluster...how can we make it cool to appeal to the masses? ARM CANNONS!"

RE: Pokemon that look better than thier evolved forms
Agree on Grotle>Turtwig, Simisage>Pansage, and Fraxure>Axew. I would agree on Monferno, too, but I remember not knowing that Monferno's head was facing down in its DP sprite. I thought it was pretty ugly and the red part was some sort of pig nose, not to mention the missing mouth until I saw the Sugi art. I still can't unsee thatBlob55 said:

I happen to like all 3 of them, Magneton was a beast back in Gen I (and was my favorite evolution in the game up till Gen IV came around), and Magnezone altho a lil weird with that magnet tail is by far my favorite evolution in Gen IV (next to Gallade.)
Speaking of Gallade: Kirlia is way better looking than both of it's (his/her) evolutions (altho I find Gardevoir beautiful), but Ralts blows it's evolutions out of the water with it's cute innocent look.

RE: Pokemon that look better than thier evolved forms
The reason why Kirlia looks better than Gardevoir and Gallade, is because Gallade has silly long elbows that get in the way and Gardevoir looks like it doesn't have any legs in official artwork or main series games.

Slaking will forever disappoint me, Vigoroth will always be my preferred sloth monkey thing. Not to mention the majesticness that is Dragonair.
