    I feel like that while this trio all look the same appearance-wise, it apparently was intentional given they're based on Fuujin, Raijin and Inari, referencing their types. The Therian formes were something I didn't see coming but I feel they definitely gave them some new uses in battle, especially Landorus being a great physical attacker, Thundurus as a fast special attacker and Tornadus being the balanced one.

    My fave of the three is Thundurus, mainly because it's blue and it has the coolest-looking of the Therian Formes as well.
     
    Landorus is my favourite, Torn-T when counting the therian formes.
     
    I think all the Incarnate forms look ugly, honestly. I wasn't very pleased with them upon reveal. But my fondest memory with these guys is when I RNG abused for a shiny Landorus with HP Ice and I got it in a Premier Ball. I...don't recommend ever doing that, haha. But still, one of my prized RNG possessions to this day. <3 He sits in gen VI as a Therian forme now, but yeah. :) That in mind, I'm glad the Therian formes exist to make these guys stand out more. Otherwise, I think they would have just gone down the forgettable route.
     
    I can understand the Incarnate formes, they do almost look like carbon copies of each other. While we all never saw the Therian formes coming, it does at least make them actually have some difference between them.
