honestly SW/SH was the first mainline game I basically missed since Diamond/Pearl (game came out at a very busy point in my life) so most of the pokemon from that generation I’m now seeing for the first time in Unite and Violet lol
He has a simpler design compared to the classic gigantic elemental legendaries. He doesn't even have complex lore, he's basically the staple of martial arts in Galar or something. Mewtwo still tops every legendary design imo
It definitely is starting to grow on me, but I definitely agree with that. Don’t legendary pokémon need some kind of story to them? I may simply be completely missing a story as I didn’t get to play SW/SH all the way through.
I used to think he was lame Legendary and for a long time before that didn't know he was actually a Legendary. I like him a lot now though his design grew on me it's really simple and clean.
Tbh it's one of my favorite designs ever, but I get when someone thinks he might look too humanoid. Funnily enough, I don't particularly like his 3D model or even his official Sugimori artwork (his mouth is too close to his nose and he walks funny). But his battle animations, his TCG artwork, his anime design and all the cool fanarts, made me grow fond of him when I was watching kung-fu movies during last year.
I’ll definitely be checking out the anime as well. I personally had the same thoughts on the 3D model, as I thought the face proportions were weird and the way his “sash” thing was hanging, I thought it always looked like that— looking at the 2D model I liked it a lot more and honestly don’t think the pokémon is odd looking at this point.
I get the feeling Urshifu’s gonna be a blast to play!!! no offense meant by this post to your favorite pokemon by the way, its design just caught my off guard (im kind of dumb) but I’m understanding it now.
I actually am a bit baffled that he is actually getting into unite. Earlier this year I imagined how the game would add new concepts for playable pokemon and one of those was having Urshifu as two different fighters depending on the move you choose, and lo and behold, they actually did just that. I'm very excited for tomorrow! (Plus the new items too)
It's a bear with a headband. Knuckles have the same design as fighters gloves. Shoulder/chest design are as if he's wearing a hooded flowing garment. Spikes on the knees to look cool?
THAT, convoluted, was the exact word I was thinking of. It’s a design very hard to like understand if that makes sense. I can see the vision it’s just confusing to look at?? I very much agree that it could have been much simpler.
Omg THANK YOU I thought I was the only one lol. The design is cool but at the same time I really don’t know what to think of it. Like…what is this pokemon’s ~aesthetic~😂
I mean, he's kinda strange, but every Gen has those designs, so he fits in in a weird way
this is true.
Its Urshifu right? Ursa for Bear. Shifu as in the Chinese term for Sensei? So a bear martial artist Pokémon? Seems easy enough to understand to me.
Bear style kungfu
but its a fucking penguin
"Give me an anime protagonist who's also a bear..."
[удалено]
His name is Panda, but he's not actually a panda
I for one don’t see anything wrong with him
I envy you, I want very badly to really like this pokémon
I don’t see anything wrong with it it looks the exact same as it did in swsh
honestly SW/SH was the first mainline game I basically missed since Diamond/Pearl (game came out at a very busy point in my life) so most of the pokemon from that generation I’m now seeing for the first time in Unite and Violet lol
He's got a belly cape, no biggie
he must cover the loins
But it is.. so... Big!?
Me but with Duraludon
Ok but how tf is duraludon not a defender? the entire bit is just big chunk of metal
Imagine seeing a wild pack of Cinderace washing their clothes at the laundry mat. Cinderace is the most unpokemon pokemon ever.
bros gigantamax is LITERALLY a building
Martial arts bear(?) Man
I was mostly just confused by the 3D model as this is the first time I’m actually seeing this pokemon
Ah yes, cawk….. er uh I mean Sawk.
I PHYSICALLY laughed at that one
JUST realized I’m supposed to look at that little black triangle as his nose and his design is starting to make more sense now
also realized his big peen is basically like a loin cloth
I have not kept up with the recent gens and learning that this pokemon was a legendary felt off.
Maybe compare it more to legendaries it’s size - mewtwo, deoxys, the legendary dogs.
Ikr, I could believe it if this thing was a mythical, by not legendary
He has a simpler design compared to the classic gigantic elemental legendaries. He doesn't even have complex lore, he's basically the staple of martial arts in Galar or something. Mewtwo still tops every legendary design imo
The ones you mentioned are all box cover legendaries, while urshifu is considered to be a minor mythical, just like lake guardian trio
these were exactly my thoughts!! he just doesn’t have that legendary vibe.
Im super hyped, Urshifu is prob one of my favourites from Gen 8, though I still don't feel it should be considered a legendary pokemon personally.
It definitely is starting to grow on me, but I definitely agree with that. Don’t legendary pokémon need some kind of story to them? I may simply be completely missing a story as I didn’t get to play SW/SH all the way through.
I mean you could try and wrap it around your head. Its long enough🥲
I used to think he was lame Legendary and for a long time before that didn't know he was actually a Legendary. I like him a lot now though his design grew on me it's really simple and clean.
Huge shlong
this is the reason why he's a legendary
Penis
Did you skip SwSh OP??
my first mainline skip since D/P :( I bought it but at a very busy time of my life, I’ve been meaning to get back to it!
right now I am super confounded with bisharp's evolution, how the heck it moves?
Just you, fam. Not a hard design to understand, both in physical design and concept on martial arts.
sorry bro 😔
Lol youre probably one of the new guys that came in with the hype. These have always been around
i’ve been playing since d/p man lol, 3D models have not always been around
[удалено]
thank you for this my friend

I like Urshifu but, Ive never been able to get past its muzzle looking like a beak lol
YES and his nose is so tiny I didnt know it was a nose
Wait that's a muzzle? I legit thought it was a snout.
Hong Kong Phooey did it better
I mean it's obvs Kung-Fu Panda, but if Digimon got to it first
i see digimon as a recurring topic for pokemon lately….
We need to please the furry community.
Big benis
gargantuan kung fu peen
One of my favorite Pokémon. Had the idea and made a post about adding them into unite like 5 months ago, so happy they listened.
I get the feeling Urshifu’s gonna be a blast to play!!! no offense meant by this post to your favorite pokemon by the way, its design just caught my off guard (im kind of dumb) but I’m understanding it now.
I just know he'd ruin my bussy
I think all the bipedal-humanoid designs are typically sort of weird when they’re supposed to be animals.
haha i was absolutely caught off guard by buzzwole as well
Looks lile a fighting type ursaring
What’s the issue
PINGAS
Big PP karate birdman?
the birdman take is a new one in this comment section but I welcome it
Looks chubby and strong at the same time but it's still better than Meowscarada and Quaquaval.
I’d have to agree. Honestly my main confusion came from the weird prospective brought on by the 3D model, but the 2D version is really nice!
I'm just gonna go ahead and say it. He has a big black pron star schlong. I'm a bit jelly.
same man 😔
...It looks to be based on a sloth bear.
the colors do make it seem like that! I think you may be right
I don't like it
I thought I was a pokemon fan and I've never seen that pokemon. I think it's from dlc or something
thats what i’ve heard, a SW/SH dlc
His hair looks like a Wang
I actually am a bit baffled that he is actually getting into unite.

It really gives me hope for other design concepts and pokemon variations on new and existing pokemon in the game.
I’m really excited for his gameplay as well!!!
Gorilla bear hybrid
This is Kung Fu Chicken. cluck cluck
swole bear go ous ous
Its a bear fighter thing. Whats wrong?
I gave up after gen 5
He looks like a street fighter character but Pokemon.
Is its tail in front of is the one at the back its tail?
DUDE I THOUGHT IT WAS A TAIL TOO
I can’t help but see his mouth as a permanent sad face.
Me with any in gameverse man-made pokemon or silly food related designs
He has potential to demolish sableye.
and for this, we love him
I thought it was a gym leader
But I like the rapid strike style or should I say Kono Dio da style muda muda muda and the enemy is destroy.
He has an upside down Roblox head for a mouth and I can't unsee it fuck
Okay, hear me out.
8. He has 8 spikes on its 'crown', to represent the 8th generation.
im fuckin with it now thanks man
Why’s it on the SSBB Results Stage?
Idk it’s just a animal that fight, the oldest trick in the pokemon book.
Hariyama in bear furry suit
He’s very horny
He is all right my problem is zeraora
not at all
It's a buff man-bear that knows karate/kung fu, what more do ya want?
He's just armored on all sides
Its the most simple designed pokemon there ever was bro. Its literally just Ken and Ryu from streetfighter lmao
3D design made me think the armor/cloth thing on the front was his tail
No it's literally just you. It's not that complicated of a design.
Oooh I like Urshifu!
Can I give you a story time?
I like this story time. I do like Kubfu and Urshifu is certainly growing on me!
It's a bear with a headband. Knuckles have the same design as fighters gloves. Shoulder/chest design are as if he's wearing a hooded flowing garment. Spikes on the knees to look cool?
the garment thing is what confused me, but mostly in the 3D model. the 2D one is much easier to follow haha
Urshifu and kubfu are some of my favorite legendaries of all time.
Penis.
Urishifu doesn’t look like a legendary tbh. Maybe a mythical at best. I thought he was a region variant of pangoro or something
Badger man
honey badger…. do care?
He just seems like a furry thirst trap to me
well, no, since it would be physically impossible to wrap your head around a bear
oh, you!
Whhhaaattt how can you not like ryu's pet bear
The 3D model had me a bit confused, Ryu’s pet bear has now begun to grow on me
Furrybait
Not crazy about the design either.
THAT, convoluted, was the exact word I was thinking of. It’s a design very hard to like understand if that makes sense. I can see the vision it’s just confusing to look at?? I very much agree that it could have been much simpler.
From the comments it seems like OP love penis and he can't unseen them in everything lol.
damn bro you read me like a cheap paperback novel
I liked Ryu’s pet bear better 😔
Kung fu panda
He’s a kungfu bear
It's just Ursaring if Ursaring took up MMA to combat its type matchup.
I mean i love bears and i love kung fu so no complaints here.
He will be sett from league
It’s a bear? Roar?
One hell of a murkin
He got a front tail.....
Omg THANK YOU I thought I was the only one lol. The design is cool but at the same time I really don’t know what to think of it. Like…what is this pokemon’s ~aesthetic~😂
Literally thought he was a spider monkey til a friend told me it was a bear.
EXACTLY
It’s one of those mons that are just a dude. It’s not creative and a little uncanny valley
Dude said he's feeling uncanny valley because of a cartoon martial artist bear lmao
Its not anymore humanoid than pangoro lmao it just has more patterns in its fur
BROO stop commenting you gonna get annihilated by down votes
When you run out of ideas lol pokemon been out for year there only so much b4 they just say fuck this will do
Why does it have a dick
