RE: Rumors, Speculation and Potential Spoilers
Where did the leaf on Meganium's head go? I was their prominent feature that made it not only stand out, but also look like a Grass-type. Where did Wartortle's tail go? What about Servine's legs?
Chikorita goes from lime green, to yellow, to green. Orange, Red, Orange for Charmander, Marshtomp is more of a cyan-blue colour than both its evolutions. There isn't a pattern, Just because Oshawott turned darker, doesn't mean all Pokémon do this by default.
It's not as if GameFreak hasn't used concepts before. The tongue in this Pokémon is functionally and aesthetically different from Lickytung's tongue.
Tatertot said:Greninja's design makes no sense. First of all, where did the bubbles go? Second, why add darker colors to Frogadier's color scheme only to revert back to the light blue and white from Froakie? Also, that tongue...it seems like an obvious rip off Lickitung, and GF generally doesn't copy prominent features like that. I really do hope it's fake, it looks like an abomination.
