Gastly and Cloyster

[Ice Kid]

I noticed gastly has an interesting resemblence to cloyster in that they both have a small spherical "head" shrouded, in gastly's case a cloud of gas and in cloyster's case a shell.
What to you think? Any other resemblences between pokemon you have noticed?

 

[Kinzu_kiwi]

Yeah, I think I have noticed that.

also, there's obvious ones like how wobbuffet looks like Quagsire.

There's also all the r/s series ones that look like pikachu.
One looks like a fat pikachu. you know which one looks like that.
Also, doesn't snubbull look like some other pokemon?

 

[Cybex Mewtwo]

O.o wow.....thats very true...never really noticed before...

 

[[Technya]]

Yeah, I have noticed that <<

Swellow/Pidgeot
Rhyhorn/Lairon
Beautifly/Butterfree
Wurmple/Weedle/Caterpie

Ah, the list goes on and on o.o

I used to thing Ghastly evolved into Haunter who evolved into Gengar who evolved into Shellder who evolved into Cloyster.

Weird!

 

[kohei]

Cloyster, Ghastly and Tangela all look quite similar...

I also think Aggron, Nidoking and Rhydon have a resemblence.

Gastly and Cloyster.....take a look at shellder same thing really...A Gastly in a smaller shell.

Jynx and Tangela might be created by the same person...

Now that you mention it, yes gastly and cloyster do have a certain resemblance, but there are other too:
Beautifly/butterfree (probaly the most obvious one)
Pichu/Minun/Plusle (I mean come on Minun and Plusle are so obviously copies of pichu)
Aggron/Rhydon (Aggron looks like a Rhydon with an armor)
Rhyhorn/Lairon (Lairon looks like a rhyhorn with an armor)
Pidgeotto/Swellow
Ditto/Grimer (well ditto is a pink pile of sludge and grimer is a purple one)
there are more, but I'm too lazy to post all of them...

Hmm, i wondered that before.

Maybe they ran out of ideas?
