So I just bought pokemon black and I gotta tell you I am starting to get tired of all these cutesy humanoid anthromorphic pokemon. Im only 3 hours into the game so I have a question for those who have played through. Are there any like...Badass pokemon I can get or all they all cutesy anthromorphs? I got the game used so if I dont like it I can return it for store credit but I only have 2 more days. So plese tell me do the pokemon get better?

Examples of badass pokemon to me.
Charizard, Gyarados, Houndoom, Rapidash, Arcanine

Examples of the pokemon from Black I dislike
All the elemental monkeys and their evolved forms
Timburr and its evolution
Tympole and its evolved forms
Sawk

DRUDDIGON.

Way cooler than Haxorus. >>;

I dislike humanoid Pokemon as well.

Here are the B/W ones:

There are a lot of great Pokemon in those games, but yeah, the humanoid ones are a little too cute. There are things like Archeops, Samurott, Scolipede, Sigilyph, Eelektross, Braviary and Hydregion to make up for it, though. Overall a lot of my very favorites are in gen. 5.

Personally the most well made are the first 150. I don't think alot of the B/W have had that much tought put into them atleast from a design standpoint.

Um, I'm sorry? How are things like Diglett and Charmander better designed than some of the newer ones? Honestly, I'd say ALL of the generations are the same when it comes to creativity. Some have their not-so-good designs, but they always have some great designs otherwise. There's been some AMAZING Pokemon in Black and White. (I mean, I don't think you can deny the badassery of a quartet of Legendaries based on a classic story (AKA The Three Musketeers~), or three Legendaries based on Yin and Yang. Or.. A martial arts weasel that uses its fur as WHIPS.)

To be honest, I suppose I do understand the "Gen 1 was the best", if only from a bit of nostalgia. I LOVE the 3rd gen since, well, other than Mystery Dungeon, Emerald was the very first Pokemon game I ever played (Yeah yeah, laugh at me for not playing the amazingness that were the original games..), so a LOT of those Pokemon I hold very close to my heart, but the thing is.. I don't let nostalgia blind me like some others do (Not pointing any fingers here. Just a general comment.) and I still love all the other generations' Pokemon, even some of the odder ones. *Hugs a Vanilluxe*

Black/White had designers from across the globe working on their monsters.
((Tepig was designed by a Korean, Vanillish was designed by an american...))

The first 150 are some of my least favorite designs because of how bland they are.

Anyways:
Hydreigon, Serperior, Zekrom, Cobalion, Gigalith, Krookodile, Scrafty, Swasbuck, Haxorus, Druddigon...

Most of the first forms are "cute". It's always been that way from Generation 1. The same layout for how creatures "work" is no different than how it was 10 years ago.

I think the first lot are the best and that's not nostalgia talking. Allso just becouse they had designers from around the globe does not mean they are better or better designed. I find the newer ones blander and that's my opinion.

Ok so after looking through I decided I will keep the game. There are a few awesome pokemon in the game. Aside from the legendaries I found a few pokemon I plan on having
Samurott
Liepard
Zebstrika
Krookodile
Zoroark
Sawsbuck
Haxorus
Druddigon
Braviary
Hydreigon--cool, but OMG lv 63??? dang

Nuff said.
He's so badass, you don't get him till level 63.

MY BABY.

The cutest most fluffy vicious man eating dragon. Ever.

Kozri the Druddigon is insistent that he is way better.

Then again, when it comes to this gens dragon types, everyone is always, "OMFG HYDREGION" or "DROOOL HAXORUS <3".

*hugs Druddigon.* It's okay, I love you. x3

I freakin' love Druddigon. He reminds me of dragons from children's books and he's just so cute because of it~

Also,
Baton Passing him speed = OH GOD TIME FOR THE OTHER GUY TO KEEL OVER

Hahah I cant wait til I can get my Druddigon. Thats one of the big guys i cant wait for.

Senna I don't understand why you have to jump down someone's throat when they say they dislike BW's pokemon compared to the other gens. They are entitled to have their opinion just as much as you are entitled to have yours, and I think your reaction was a little too hostile for the situation.

That being said.. I HATED the BW pokemon when I first looked through them. My original thought was 'how the hell are these pokemon?'. Then I bought the games, and I've been slowly playing through them now and again, and some pokemon that I couldn't stand became my favourites. When I started playing the games, a lot of the pokemon fit in better than I expected them to, and they started feeling more like pokemon to me. My current team is Burp (Darmanitan), Herp (Scrafty), Da Fuck?! (Swoobat), Maelstrom (Carracosta), SandyPants (Krookodile) and Zipper (Galvantula). Half of those I didn't even like when the game came out.

The game still has a lot of misses for me, like the Vanilish line and the legendaries (aside from the djinn based ones), but many of grown on me. Give it time, I'm sure many will grow on you too.
