Making funny looking Pokemon, something they've always done, means they're destroying their legacy? That doesn't make sense to me, but what I want to know is if this means you're not buying the game. If you're going as far as saying they should get fucked then jeez you must be really ticked, it'll be interesting to see if you stand by your decision unlike me with Fire Emblem Fates.

They've never done this. Maybe there were a few weird and maybe slightly funny Pokémon in the past, but they were always interesting or creative in some way. Putting blonde hair on a Dugtrio just doesn't cut it. It's stupid and that's all it is.
I'm unsure whether I'll buy the game or not. I'd first need the money to get it, and if I do manage that, I think I will buy it, yes - because I still need to play it to confirm whether it really is as horrible as it looks. If it is indeed, then I'll stop buying Pokémon games after that.
That said, I don't really mean it when I say the game looks horrible. I think it actually looks like a decent game with an interesting story and different ideas. As a standalone game, it actually looks good - the real problem is all the bullshit it's adding to the Pokémon franchise.

Alolan forms specifically are new, but stupid/weird/funny Pokemon? Well I guess that's a matter of preference. To me Dugtrio was always stupid, but atleast now it's Alolan form is stupid funny. I'll definitely say it's a lazy change though, and I doubt Dugtrio fans are gonna be happy about it unless it's typing/stats are amaze.
I wouldn't recommend buying a game until you're sure you'll like it, since if you end up not liking it you just lost money that coulda gone towards an enjoyable game. Surely watching gameplay and getting impressions once the full game is out will give a good idea of the game and confirm/deconfirm any fears n doubts.
I think you should still be able to enjoy this game though, you admit you like some of the new stuff afterall. Atleast for singleplayer and with friends, you can simply not use any of the new features or Pokemon you don't like, no Alolan Dugtrio, no Z-Moves, etc.
