Say that to Lysandre and him clearly being the villain in XY the mere second you see him. And Chairman Rose in Sword and Shield now that i think about it.

Well if you read the scripts he is subtle at all you could definitely pickup villain vibes from him early on

I love the dex entries for modern pokemon lol like rotom magnemite and porygon Laventon just couldnt make any sense out of them lol

Spoiler

Magnemite: A bizarre Pokémon with but a single eye embedded in an iron sphere. I suspect this creature levitates due to the magnetism it emits from its arms, which resemble horseshoe-shaped magnets.
Magneton: Three Magnemite gathered to evolve into this Pokémon. The source of much vexation on my part, as its powerful magnetism destroys my research equipment.
Magnezone: I theorize that a special magnetic field influenced this Pokémon, changing its molecular structure and causing it to evolve. It emits strange radio waves toward space from its antenna.
Rotom: This bizarre Pokémon appears to be a will-o’-the-wisp powered by electricity. Be wary, as Rotom is both smart and mischievous.
Rotom-Heat: A form in which Rotom lurks within a strange cauldron. The cauldron’s origin is unknown. A bothersome Pokémon, causing trouble with the flames it spits.
Rotom-Wash: A form in which Rotom lurks within an odd bureau. The bureau’s purpose is unknown. A bothersome Pokémon, causing trouble by splashing cold water everywhere.
Rotom-Frost: A form in which Rotom lurks within a bizarre cupboard. The cupboard’s composition is unknown. A bothersome Pokémon, causing trouble by frosting everything over.
Rotom-Fan: A form in which Rotom lurks within a mysterious contraption. The contraption’s purpose is unknown. A bothersome Pokémon, causing trouble by stirring up powerful winds.
Rotom-Mow: A form in which Rotom lurks within a misshapen wheelbarrow. The wheelbarrow’s mechanisms are bizarre. It’s a bothersome Pokémon, causing trouble by mowing down grass and trees.
Porygon: It has no discernible heartbeat and does not seem to draw breath, and yet it appears to function without issue. I cannot even begin to explain this utterly bizarre anomaly.
Porygon2: A bizarre item caused this Pokémon to evolve. While it now exhibits many new gestures and expressions, its biology remains inscrutable.
Porygon-Z: A curious item induced this evolution. The Pokémon’s offensive capabilities have greatly increased, but the strangeness of its behavior has magnified in equal measure. This worries me.

I sincerely love Porygon-Z's entry.

 

[Articfoxgamez]

This game has the single biggest development and change in pokemon history... Magikarps pokedex entry actually says something good about magikarp (I mean they still insulted it right before hand but, hey i'll take it)

It also gave it the harshest insult.

The storylines of both games don't present them as Villains until the climax

Even if it wasn't done well, they're still meant to be "Twist Villains" kinda similar to how Disney movies have been doing for the past decade.

Suddenly i'm not sure how to feel about size differences

Spoiler: Max Size Machamp

For refrence, the size difference between a Big machamp and the trainer, is almost as big as the difference between Palkia and the trainer

Help theres another Image why is Kricketune so LARGE

Spoiler: Multiple Max Size Mons

People still could predict Lysandre and Rose were villains from the trailers.

Instead, the villain in Legends doesn't give that impression in the trailers at all.

 

[Daren]

I'm 100% down with these massive sizes considering I never quite recovered from learning I was taller than Nidoking.
Bring on the big mons.

 

[TRNatalie]

The huge Pokémon (especially Kricketune and Biberal) are killing me

Spoiler: Found an image of Palkia in comparison to the trainer

It’s like you’re Palkia’s pet xD

 

[Articfoxgamez]

So apparently all of those were the Alpha Versions. From what I can gather there are three sizes. Small, Average, Big, Alpha. So not every pokemon species can get this big i dont think. Not actually sure if all pokemon can spawn as an alpha or only some.

Maybe Hisui has really weak power spots and due to that pokemon can get quite large but not completely dynamax?

Its an interesting idea but the problem is that Dynamax isnt actually a size increase. its just a projection of sorts created by dynamax energy. The pokemon itself is still regular size somewhere in there.

I was wondering whether or not the Alpha status would affect the size of the Pokémon. Good to know

Guess that means no trainers getting wrecked by a tiny Alpha Shinx lol

 

[Johnny Boy]

Apparently to get modern pokemon there is a phenomena like a weather condition that causes a time-space rift bubble randomly it is the only place to get modern pokemon such as magnemite and porygon also the only place to get the other 2 starters would definitely be a hunting ground too

Guess this is how we’ll get the Hisuian forms in the future.

This is so much better than seeing the tiny model of Palkia in BDSP. I feel like Palkia should be a bit bigger though? Its canonically 13'09"

To be fair, the picture I found was edited. Maybe it looks bigger/better in the full shot? I’m looking to see if I can find a better image.

+ what was said below

They probably scaled down a lot of the bigger Pokemon from their canonical size just because too large could get too unwieldy.

Spoiler: Full size

Still defenintly not 13 Feet but, like i said they seemingly scaled down all the super large mons.
