Is it just me, or does #20 look familiar.. like the mascots for Beijing 2008?

You be quiet, I like Mato-kun. Especially his roof head. #3 is pretty cute, too.
Btw, isn't #33 just Spheal (it took me forever to look that up) with horns and hooves?

hey, i liked manto! and I think you meant #23, but yeah, very similar. I guess you can only have so many round, undetailed, cute mascots before they start overlapping

Oops, I misread. Also, I meant that #25 is the Spheal clone. Check it out.

YES! #25 is in the perfect pose too. <3 Spheal.
Also, does anyone know why several of these are chicken/bird themed? I thought it was all about the deer...

Spheal... #363... I only remember the first 150... The Johto ones were cool too... After that I was just like ... "oh God... it's not gonna end..." Then I stopped. haha. I may look them up one day if I get bored!

I'm guessing they're supposed to be phoenixes, and those are always good luck, right?

Hmmm, that makes sense. 4 and 19 definately look like roosters to me though...good thing they didn't win, eh?

Number 7 is by far the best. The winner looks kinda fruity with that 'Speed Racer' scarf on...

All of them are much better than the original. I like number seven as well, very cute!

Haha. I thought the exact thing about #7! haha. I was like "HEY! That looks like..." 3, 7, 8, and 23 are cool in my book. Japan... tomorrow!!!

None of these mascots will inspire fear in your rivals! Except #16. I don't know why but Blushing Bug-kun and Green Circle with Crown-san are scary as hell.

#17 is a freakin turtle!! Oh man, that's so awesome I don't know how they could have chosen #8 when they had #17 as a rival.
