    Did anyone notice in XY that Pokémon sizes seem a lot more realistic/comparable now that everything's in 3D? I realized how ginormous smeargle wasand how puny all the birds are. Horsea is like 10 times that of a regular seahorse, same with Krabby. And wailmer is actually ginormous.

    After a quick google search I found this video and some things it mentions is kind of terrifying. A 5ft long ghastly? O.O Thankfully I can still ride a charizard but knowing that a dratini is longer than I am tall is kinda sad. So, do these sizes taken from the official Pokédex scare you? Or do you actually read the Pokédex and you knew it all along? Share!

    I like the idea of being able to see the size comparison to other Pokémon. I think it's a pretty cool thing to add. Though the only issue that bothers me, is that their size difference isn't exactly all that accurate. Now I don't mean "He's 5'0" and that guy is 5'11" tall. I mean like... Skitty vs Wailord. Wailord should appear much bigger than a skitty would. Or even a Blaziken against Wailord. To me, their large Pokémon seemed to be a bit dwarfed.

    But then again. If it was extremely accurate. A lot of Pokémon would probably look like little specks on the field and probably wouldn't have been as engaging.

    5 foot Gastly is quite a scary idea. Of course there are variations of size for all Pokémon but something that's on average 5 feet is still pretty spooky.

    We should all remember this one and how it messes with the concept.

    I don't remember the exact size, but Meowth. They are so insanely small. Team Rocket's Meowth is a freaking mutant compared to their average size (which makes kind of sense, since it can talk as well)
