My point is that there are plenty of animals, reptiles, insects, ect in the real world that are similar to each other and to bash Pokémon for having similar monsters is stupid.

It's more realistic than lazy.

I know and I agree. I was just making a joke.

I just find it odd how people call this design lazy when there are so many more obvious examples that people seem to give a pass because they came out earlier when they grew up with/first experienced Pokemon. I don't even find any Pokemon design particularly lazy tbh, but I find it odd when some people seem to critique new Pokemon for something that applies to past Pokemon as well.

I've been around since Red/Blue and each gen is the same. The new players all think the new pokemon are awesome. The older players all think the new pokemon are 'lazy, stupid or copies'

Then the same as any Zelda game, as soon as the next generation comes out, the previous generation pokemon are now cool and it's the new gen that are lazy, stupid or copies.
