This is something fans have noticed and have been pointing out for nearly a month. And yet, the Pocket Monster is still pint-sized
@PokemonGoApp I can’t help but notice how tiny Rhyperior is, especially compared to Rhydon… Would he just take up too much space in Gyms otherwise? pic.twitter.com/ZD8XkBmfkL

Hey, has anyone noticed that some Sinnoh Pokémon are scaled incorrectly? @PokemonGoApp For example, Rhyperior being the same height as Ivysaur and Pupitar. pic.twitter.com/wKKNNZdofZ

@PokemonGoApp have you seen the size of Rhyperior? It's bizarre. Will you fix it eventually? pic.twitter.com/rQ0lBj2Sy2

@PokemonGoApp why is Rhyperior looking so small if it is clearly large? pic.twitter.com/T1YZPrhtJx
