Damn I did not expect my boi Feraligatr to be so tall

That's not a ten year old trainer either, that's Red as an adult (Him and Blue turn up in the Sun and Moon post game) so that's how tall they are compared to an adult dude.

I also just realised that Feraligatr is just the words feral and alligator smooshed together. Lol. Based.

I expected Blastoise to be bigger. He's Gamera coded after all, he should be taller!

A lot of numbers in Pokemon are super made up and weird. i.e. half the pokedex entries for fire pokemon talking about how they somehow contain the heat level of the fucking sun.

Not only is Feraligatr a mashup, they didn’t have enough characters to use for names and had to drop the ‘o’ from the name. IIIRC early concept art called it Feraligator

I really though Feraligator and Typhlosion were closer in size, Feraligator’s fucking huge!

Empoleon, Infernape, Emboar, Chestnaught, and Delphox are way smaller than I thought

If Delphox is this small Braixen is toddler size

[-] ClimateChangeAnxiety@hexbear.net 5 points 2 hours ago

Yeah I’m pretty shocked by that one I figured Delphox was way taller than that

I love my Torterra.

My headcanon disregards this. My Swampert gives me big hugs.

Also lmao Mega Blastoise is also 5'3 so he gains no height either they don't calculate the cannon or he shrinks to accommodate the cannon

Did not imagine them being so smol

[-] Moss@hexbear.net 12 points 6 hours ago

These hurt me. Venusaur is the tallest Kanto starter? Infernape is so short? Serperior is huge and Samurott is the size of a big dog? Delphox is a little guy? This is terrible news

As a Venusaur enjoyer I am thriving gigachad-hd

[-] Moss@hexbear.net 4 points 3 hours ago

As an Infernape fan I am kinda confused

I knew Infernape wasn't that tall, but I expected it to be more than waist level

Empoleon is too short i swear a real emperor penguin would probably be taller

[-] PointAndClique@hexbear.net 6 points 5 hours ago

Deci is the perfect size. Delphox is a bit teeny from what i imagined. Gren is about ok. Samurott i never really thought about (sorry). I like typhlosion being a bit smaller than I thought it's cute
