I absolutely LOVE the 6th generation and Klefki is probably the closest thing to a bad design, and even that one's questionable (because really, who hasn't considered the possibility of something like Klefki existing that always steals your keys when you're not watching?). Whats bad about Klefki though? Everyone says that, and they say its just based on a keyring. Why is that bad? Voltorb is just a Pokeball with angry eyes. Then for its evolution, they flipped it upside down and gave it a mouth. Voltorb is dope though. I always imagined it was a Pokéball factory malfunction that caused it to come into existence. But yeah, Klefki is cool. Its type combination is pretty watertight as well. My wife and I are watching the XY show while playing Pokémon and Klefki handing the keys and the Pokédex entry made me realise it IS really supposed to be the reason why people always lose their keys. I think it's a fun and clever design. I know my brothers (nostalgia-driven cynics) always complain they should've just stuck to the animal style designs but they have yet to rebuttal Grimer, Voltorb, Magnemite or even Geodude (I know some poeple had a pet rock when they were little but they really aren't animals...). The demo is out though, I have seen my wife play it (it doesn't fit on my 2GB memory card even if I threw everything off... Getting a new sd card tomorrow) and it's so cool! Biggest shock so far is that Nurse really has a different design...

I just think people are too blinded by nostalgia, 'cause Voltorb really is no better than stuff like Chandelure or Klefki.

No for certain, it's the same as people complaining the games are too easy. Someone even complained you got a Pokémon for FREE in the new games, which is so much worse cause you wouldn't have that in the first game, even though I'm pretty darned sure you are gifted a Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan... but then again, I think most of the nostalgia-complainers haven't played the game since they were young, and remember it as being tough as balls... It was for me, as I was like 6 or 7 and I can't say my English was quite good yet. Also why I never made it to Zelda on the NES I'm thinking... The demo is so cool though. It looks like they're trying again to make competitive play more accessible, and hide less and less statistics. I think it's a nice way to give younger newcomers a hand, without actually taking anything away from the veterans. I mean, we don't lose anything in fun by it being mentioned what is and what isn't super effective; we already know. Nor do we lose anything by stat changes being visible. Before you'd do your best to remember, now the game keeps visual track of it. No big difference.

I blame on how the Pokemon fandom is nowadays. If you even give a new pokemon's design any slight of criticism. Pokemon fanatics will jump you for it.

I would like to assume its due to already having its model for the support role, and maybe due to Brock's Croagunk in the anime giving it a popularity boost. LT I told you to be skeptical lol. Croagunk confirmed. Damn they had an extra to throw others off. lol May not have Empoleon at all. As Croagunk just taught you: be skeptical.

Ugh... Yeah, you're probably right. I don't mind Croagunk, but out of 721 Pokémon out now, why do they have 2 Pikachus, two Mewtwos and now two Croagunks in this game?
He looks fun in the trailer at least

Well I've heard cosplay Pikachu was reallly well received. Plus at least its an entirely different moveset. Two Mewtwos was probably just more fanservice.
