The bird looks WICKED, imo. I don't really like Hihidaruma because its eyebrows are weird (daruma dolls in general are weird) and Munna just looks silly.
When I first saw it, I though Gear was stupid, but after another look, it looks pretty cool. ^^ It'll probably get a random English name like Bicog or something lol.
The Alligator's ability is WICKED as. If it gets a nice powerful evolution, it'll become a powerhouse! :D
I also like the way they've taken with the new legendaries. The old ones were too...normal, y'know? I mean, the only thing that distinguished Articuno from Pidgeot was its colour basically. That's not exactly...legendary, y'know? The beasts still looked too normal to be legendary Pokemon, but it sure got better with Gen III's Kyogre, Groudon and Rayquaza. They were abstract (and one was a dragon) and they didn't look like animals; they actually looked like they'd created the Earth. Diamond and Pearl's legendaries were just as good. Now you can actually DISTINGUISH between the legendaries and the normal Pokemon at a glance. Legendaries are more abstract; big and menacing, where normal Pokemon are much simpler. I like it much better this way.
