28. Fennekin

Fennekin sits in a weird spot of being a little unremarkable in design while also just feeling like it’s got a lot going on. Its dark orange eyes and ear fluffs pop, but everything else feels pretty bland. By the time it’s reached its final form in Delphox, there’s a lot more going on and the witch motif stands out across a lot of the Pokémon starter lines. But Fennekin itself doesn’t quite reach that distinct look until much later. It’s a vibe, but the vibe is just waiting below the surface until it evolves.
