Description 8'| So CoroCoro leaked, Nintendo confirmed it and so Zygarde gained like a bazillion formes and everyone's pining for Pokemon Z version.

I?? Don't like the new formes. I tried drawing this one (Zygarde 10% aka The Doge) in order to dislike it less but.. Eh. Not even going to touch the gundam that is supposed to be the complete form.

Not my cup of tea! I like my Zygarde as a zen snake.

I like the design of this form but it looks out of place compared to its other forms.

If this were its own species separate from Zygarde, I'd be okay with it, but the 'complete' form is just...meh. The concept of having a Pokemon evolve biologically, so to speak, is neat, but I don't know why it was applied to Zygarde with no explanation, or why Zygarde somehow goes from a dog to a snake to a...?!? Perhaps if this idea had been applied to an entirely new Pokemon in future games, I'd be more okay with it, but randomly forcing it upon Zygarde with little justification just makes zero sense.
All of that aside, you did Doge justice

I just hate the new forms because Zygarde is such a unique pokemon. They really detract from his originality.

This form of Zygarde looks like a splice between Xerneas and Houndoom. And that sounds like something people would be into, but they could've really done something interesting with its forms instead of sticking with already existing design themes.

Yeppp... I would've not minded this as a standalone pokemon? But trying to imagine it as some kinda pre-form for Zygarde is just really offputting.

I like the reasoning behind the formes (they're an amalgation of Zygarde Cells and one single Zygarde Core that acts as the brain, and the more Cells there are, the more "percent" the forme is, and they're probably just adaptations to the situation), but yeah, as of now they're a bit underwhelming.
Hope they looks better when Sugimori draws them (all we've seen as of now are the artworks for the anime), or in 3D, though who knows, maybe they're not even all going to be in the next games.

I know the reasoning behind the form changing is the cores and cells forming together-- I've got nothing against the concept itself. What boggles me is WHY this was done to Zygarde in the first place; sure it was a random legendary with literally zero lore in it in X and Y but there was really no reason to slap such a huge change in its physique. Plus they don't even fit. I know the dog is probably supposed to represent Fenrir as Zygarde represents Jormundgar the earth snake but what's up with the huge robot in the end? Nintendo just blindsided everyone with this one.

I don't mind Complete Zygarde, I just think the anime artwork's coloring is too simple to showcase the design properly. Tomycase's work on it , for instance, looks a lot better.

As for the design itself, they mostly wanted to make it colossal and impressive, I guess, though making it so human-like might be a bit of a waste. Some people associate the humanoid form with Hel or Loki (shapeshifting and all), or even Odin himself, though.

I feel it'd have been less of a drastic change if they hadn't given it legs but made it some sort of a naga like most people expected.

I think it's supposed to not be as cool as its stronger forms,kind of like how all of the mid evolutions of starter pokemon always look awkward. I would like this form if it wasn't related to Zygarde. I think they could have done a better job representing Fenrir, the myth they are basing it on.
I still wish they had kept on the snake theme.

Also, not even cats would fear this dog, they would probably push the cup of tea off the table in disgust (or just because they could)

Well, you may not like this new forme, but you did a darn good job of drawing it.
