Just picture a eccentric researcher who looks like they would be willing to arm-wrestle an Ursaning impassionately argue that Arbok are really just cuddlebugs, or ready to throw hands to defend Mandibuzz's importance to the ecosystem as scavengers.

This is such a fun scene!
I love seeing a Pokémon pull their trainer into silly shenanigans like that.

Also, that Arbok is just great: their smug expression is priceless, and the geometric pattern on their scales looks really pretty.

A creature frolicking among the flower fields would give the scene a nice dash of whimsy! Specially if it's one often regarded as fearsome, or to not be inclined to engage in play like that.

Yeah, me too! Eschewing conventional HUDs in favour of body language for things like tiredness and hunger is also a bold choice, and there's just so many directions they could take with the protagonist's power set. If the devs can make those mechanics feel intuitive they will have something great.

These are all quite pretty! The Kalos stamp's got to be my favourite of the bunch: the Talonflame with their wings furled conveys a feeling of speed. It's quite fitting for a mail stamp!
