You're not the only one, John.  ???

I actually found a rather interesting comic that explores what general reactions would be if Gen 1 and Gen 5 were switched.

That is a very intruiging comic, altough i think the reason there is so much hate on gen 5 is due to the fact that it didnt seem as silly when we were kids, and now it just seems plain ridiculuos for some of them.

Here's the man who drew 1/5 of my thousand-large collection of Pokémon cards. Hats off to you sir. When I was a kid in elementary I knew your name and the names of all your fellow Pokémon artists.

Tristan:
That was a pretty funny comic, but I didn't really agree with the carbon copies bit. Cloyster does have Gastly's face, but that's it. It also has an entire shell built around it making it unique. Nidoqueen and Rhydon do look very very similar and I always thought that was sort of odd, but it was nice to have options and I'd rather have Rhyhorn evolve into that instead of a ... well a bigger rhino so-to-speak. But see the Genies aren't supposed to be compared to those Pokemon, because they're the "Legendary Trio" of Gen 5, right? Well Pokemon has been doing this trio carbon copy thing for a long time, ever since Gen 1 with the legendary birds. It just so happens that ever since about Gen 3, they've made the differences between them more and more subtle. Latios and Latias, anyone? How about the Legendary Golems? Each generation the differences become less obvious.
