I actually liked all the designs of the Pokemon up until Gen V, it was the first I was really like...wtf is that ****
I think they should just stop at 1000 or so, I'm assuming we'll have like 780~ this Gen, so they could squeeze like two more out, and then just focus on exploring other parts of the world and all that junk. I mean Pokemon has to end at some point. Its not Mario where they can rehash the same game over and over.
