I like Vullaby and Mandibuzz the most, they made me like vultures a lot. Vullaby wears a skull as a diaper, and Mandibuzz wears bones as skirt like clothing. Those birds look pretty and tough.

    Swablu and by extension Altaria. The fluffy cloud design is cute and the fact that it perches atop people’s heads is even cuter.

    Corviknight! I used it in both my Sword playthroughs, it’s a fantastic support Pokemon in competitive, and it just looks sick.

    I honestly love the Natu -> Xatu line and Sigilyph. Somethin about the designs hits me just right

        Sigilyph being based off the Nazca lines leavs it looking silly and the Xatu line is tortured mentally if i am remembering their pokedex enty correctly.

        I think my biggest problem is that its hard tto run both on the same team because they are simply to similar. That and there are just better psychic pokemon (shout out to Reuniclus)

          As much as I am extreme gen 5 fan, I disagree. I find the concept of psychic birds that are mentally tortured to be super awesome.
          Along with that, I feel Sigilyph feel more similar to Unown than Natu and Xatu

    I don’t usually end up using a lot of bird Pokémon in playthroughs (Flying types I pick are usually flying dragons). That said I do really like the sleek design of Galarian Articuno, and I had a Fearow once that was a star team member of the one nuzlocke I ever attempted (Fire Red).

    Pokémon Go eggs made me hate your favorites, but that’s more about that game in particular and skinner boxes in general than the actual ‘mons. They do look pretty cool. I think I have to go Zapdos and Corviknight myself. Corviknight in particular I feel really nails the tough knight look they were going for
