Which Therian forme is the most incarnate? For those of you which need help with adjectives (no judgment I did too):
in·car·nate
(especially of a deity or spirit) embodied in flesh; in human form
the·ri·an
a mammal of the major group Theria, which comprises the marsupials and placentals
Given the unprecedented importance of this question, we must consider the incarnate qualities of all 3 Pokemon.

Landorus appears to truly be the apex predator. It maintains what I consider to be a distinctly human facial expression: the stink eye. Other renderings of Landorus have another (mostly) human facial expression: pissed off as if someone else ate the last of their premium vanilla bean ice cream in the freezer and then lied about it. However, its feet are REALLY weird. There's no way that it'd be able to fit in hiking boots, even though it'd surely need them since it's a Ground-type Pokemon. It's nice that it retains its hat; marsupials don't typically wear those unless they are part of some weird New Guinean circus. Learning Fly would normally be problematic, but due to its long shape (i.e., airplane-shaped) I'd actually consider that a thing in its favor.

Thundurus is LITERALLY the only force of nature to be weak to Earthquake under the effects of Gravity. Humans are ALSO weak to Earthquake under the effects of Gravity. It has HANDS too which not everyone does. I would HATE to catch those hands, but I'm sure I could throw down & make a good showing for myself. The most important thing: PANTS. And blue jeans at that. However, it has a tail. Also, it has a poofy ponytail which is completely unfashionable ever since George HW Bush took office (just a coincidence on the timing though). This is by far the most polarizing of the three, with its Kylie Minogue - 80's cover of mid-century pop hits look providing a viable yet uncompelling vision of humanoid life.

WOW. Like, if someone that looked like this tried to buy me a drink at the bar... I would say, YES of course. But then call security so that they have to leave. Some people know how to make considerable amounts of wind with an impressive velocity by flapping their arms. I haven't seen it in a while, but it's truly a sight to behold. In terms of other qualities, it's a bit sparse on the incarnate side. It really looks more like a bird than anything. Definitely not therian in any way, though. Tornadus could be considered incarnate just because of how non-therian it is, if we consider Incarnate-Therian-ability to exist on a binary spectrum.
Let me know what you think. I'll reserve my opinion for now. Feel free to use serious considerations (such as the ones above) or silly ones.
