While I agree that Gen I back sprites can be downright questionable, I think 11, 12, and 16 actually look pretty spot on.

Yeah Charmeleon does look strange, looks like Dragonite. I thought poliwhirls was like Slopoke's or something at first...

If you were ever at a point in the game where you saw the backsprite of Tentacool...you're doing it wrong.

Is it just me, or does Hypno look like it's about to bite something with a crocodile mouth?

I'm pretty sure Professor Oak is on fire in this picture. Also he probably isn't a Pokemon.

Wow no. 14 I thought was gyrados or whatever and I was just spelling it wrong, turns out it was vaporeon. Darn.

Actually, I thought poliwhirl was the worst one because if you look at it wrong, its right eye can look like and ear and the space between that eye and its hand can look like an eye. In other words, it can look like a slowbro. :P

I think this is where they got the legendaries from. The back of Syther has got to be Rayquaza, Vaporeon has got to be Lugia, Tentacool has got to be Azelf. PS. I know like every pokemon name was spelling wrong in that comment, live with it.

@ Cactusthorn52, all of those were spelled correctly.

I honestly don't think Arcanine's or Poliwhirl's backsprites are really that bad.

Thought Tangela's was Rhyhorn's and completely forgot about it... until after I hit 'Give Up' (partly because I couldn't figure out what the heck #4 was)

I kept trying Slowbro for #2, even after the 4th try I was still convinced it was.

Had to stare at Tentacool for like a minute before I figured out what I was looking at... and I STILL don't see Geodude. Looks like a flower or an organ of some sort.
