I have fixed Lycanroc, specifically midnight form. If you (if you live under the planet) don’t know what Lycanroc is, they are a pokemon, specifically a wolf that has a few rock things or something.
Here’s an image of the 3 forms:
Now, you would expect the other two forms, the midday and the dusk form, to be fairly short (or rather not that tall). After all, they ARE basically just wolves, so it wouldn’t make sense for them to be fairly tall, and their height respects that!
Both are 80 cm, which makes sense with their size in game. However, the Midnight form is the one that is really weird. Unlike the other forms, it stands on two legs rather than all fours, which you would expect to make it taller, and it does. But, by a surprisingly small amount.
The Midnight form is only 30 cm taller than the other forms, which reminder look like this:
(don’t ask why Midday/Midnight forms are not transparent pngs)
Anyways, I feel like this makes no sense size wise. Not even the fact that it’s only taller by a small (small in this case being compared to what it looks like) amount, but just how short it is.
For context, this is a 120 cm/3’11 tall pokemon:
This is another one (I’m mostly posting this one because it turns out Smeargle is 3’11 and that’s horrifying):
Now, from the moment I found this out, I have been wondering why Lycanroc is so short, and then it hit me:
Lycanroc has an absurd slouch. Imagine how much it’s back hurts from that absurd slouch. As a way of releasing Lycanroc from the horrors of this slouch, and to see how tall they actually are, I have sent him to a physiotherapist, and this is how he looks like now:
Lycanroc’s back pain is nonexistant now, and as a bonus, we can see how tall they actually are.
When I was finished, I measured the image and saw Lycanroc itself to be about 550 pixels, while the normal one is around 500 pixels. From this, we can deduce that Lycanroc is about 1.1x taller when not slouching. With a height of 110 cm/43 inch, we can calculate Lycanroc’s proper height to be:
121 cm, and:
3’11/4’0 (if we round up)
Finally, the horrible travesty of back pain and shortness has been cured, and Lycanroc Midnight emerges as a new, taller doggie.
