>Look at Manectric, on the other hand: his design is retarded.
I agree wholeheartedly. But I think it had to do with how it and Electrike were drawn.
But according to your standard, I think, you should be inclined to say Sinnoh had designs on par with or better than Kanto and Johto's---you have Garchomp and Abomasnow that are serious and will wreak havoc menacingly; far less light-hearted than most of Kanto with few exceptions like Gyarados.

Anyway, I'm just pushing back because I'm trying to suss out what standard other people are using when they say this design is bad or this one is great---see how solid the rubric is.

I hear that Gen 1 is considered mediocre now
