(Pokemon Switch spoiler) What just leaked...?
Apparently, according to the recent news on Serebii.net, this... thingy(?) that's possibly a new Pokemon to be introduced in Pokemon Switch/Gen VIII got leaked in a Pokemon Go network traffic. And...
...
It looked kinda silly, even by newly-debuted Pokemon standards. It looks like some fastener nut attached on blob of putty/Play-Doh or something. Heck, I dunno. ¯\(•ิ_•ิ)/¯
Even so, it's not officially confirmed just yet, as the news pointed out.
EDIT: It's name is now Meltan, and it's a Steel-type (I've been speculating that it's one of those Steel-types, and I was right all along!)
EDIT 2: I was wrong about Meltan and Melmetal being Gen 8 monsters. They're part of Gen 7.
Meltan (Pokemon) belongs to Nintendo/Game Freak

Yeah, they should.
In fact, here's some interesting fakemon I doodled up a while ago.

They look quite good, though you might be out-done on the rabbit and cat. Nexomon got there first lol

They have a nice Egyptian-themed kitty, and a rough-house rabbit.
Regardless though, yours are very good too. I'd love to see more if you have or do come up with any more

Let us not forget that Voltorb and Electrode are just balls, Ditto, Grimer, and muk are just wads of goo. Every gen has hits and misses when it comes to design. Even the holy Gen one. I'd say it's best to withhold judgment until the final release, tbh. Kinda silly to judge immediately on the whole gen, based on one leaked 'mon.
Oh indeed. I quite agree, but it seems that with each generation the designs get more and more silly, and that's not to say there aren't great designs in later gens (my opinion or otherwise).
I personally dislike most of the designs of the Ultra Beasts, but give them a pass because they're not meant to be pokemon, but creatures from an alternate dimension, with a somewhat Lovecraftian feel to their design. They're not MEANT to make sense as we understand it.
On the flip side, people often give flak to these strange designs before they use them and find out how good the pokemon is... such as Klefki, who got a lot of flak but turned out to be one of the strongest competitive battlers of its generation.
Who knows... Maybe this blobby-nut with evolve into something cool and/or powerful. Look at Beldum... It hardly looks intimidating at all, and the huge nose it gets as Metang is even somewhat comical... But I sure as hell wouldn't want to come face-to-face with a pissed off Metagross...
