Pokémon Review: Geodude, Graveler, and Golem
I’m going to be completely honest, due to Geodude’s family being the only three stage evolution line with a full set of regional forms, there’s a whopping six designs to cover and they’re all pretty similar in tone, so some of these are going to be a bit shorter because there isn’t as much to…

Pokémon Review: Meowth, Persian, and Perrserker
Meowth holds the distinction of being the only Pokemon to have received regional forms in two separate generations, so as such there’s quite a lot of ground to cover here for something so plain. Meowth is kind of hard to talk about as a Pokemon, in my view. This is largely because its presence in…

Pokémon Review: Diglett and Dugtrio
Welp, time to figure out how to say different things about each of these four incredibly repetitive and bland designs that have done the same concept to death. Yaaaaaaay.

Sandshrew is a simply delightful little guy with a nice brick laid pattern for its back armour that effectively communicates its Ground typing and looks good when it rolls around in a ball. I love its sandy colour scheme, beady black…

Pokémon Review: Pichu, Pikachu, and Raichu
Welp, it’s time for the big cheese. The mascot of all Pokémon and most likely one of the most recognisable fictional characters on the entire planet. However, before that we’ve got to make a little stop at the Day Care to pick up Pikachu’s child: Pichu. The first of a small handful of Baby Pokemon…

Pokémon Review: Rattata and Raticate
Rattata is another of those regular Route 1 Pokemon that’s been iterated on countless times in the generations since, and at the very least this time there’s a distinct purple colour scheme to it to make it stand out more. Honestly Rattata does a pretty good job of giving a subtle hint at being more…
