A new house-cat Pokemon brings us at least a whole new flavor of cat! Skitty is much more overtly a kitten than Meowth, with the perpetually closed eyes and slightly scrunched face. It serves the niche well enough! The only "thing" to it, really, is that its tail looks a little like a built-in cat toy, which is a funny twist on the whole chasing one's own tail thing. The only thing really wrong with skitty are the nubs for legs, just personally we would've preferred paws.
Then comes its evolution, which ditches a lot of Skitty's charm in favor of more of a "fancy cat" persona, with the big fur coat-like neck ruff. It's very much a Pokemon that's fine enough for what it is but doesn't particularly excite us. It's better than Persian at least, but that's not a high bar at all. Maybe we'd like it better with a gentler expression closer to Skitty's but eh. It's cute! But that's about it.
