I think the fakemon are very creative, it just shows that The Pokémon Company aren't the only ones that can be creative (well, not as much with Black/White though since they were rushed), there are alot of fakemon that I'd prefer more than the generation 5 Pokémon.
I kinda find it odd that Samurott stands out totally different from it's previous evolutions, it's actually part seal, which the seal counterpart came from someone who's seen a seal in an aquarium. In my opinion, I don't think the Pokémon stand out very well from the generation 5 sketches, they could've done better. Prahaps maybe another Wii game for the 4th generation would've been a better idea than starting generation 5 right away? Thing is... from a grass snake having legs to having no legs in it's last evolution... hm... rather odd, this wasn't like that in previous games, and besides... snakes really don't have legs. lol
And as for snakes, just like every animal... they're wonderful. ^^
