Given that its first evolutionary form is literally just a bunch of eggs, Exeggutor has always been one of the sillier Pokemon designs in the compendium. But the introduction of Sun and Moon’s new Alola Form takes things to a whole new level.
Ilustration: @auko__
Meet Sun and Moon’s version of Exeggutor, which turns the critter into a full-on palm tree:
Strangely, the Alola version of Exeggutor is a dragon type with an incredibly long neck, which allows it to tower over, well, everything. It’s the sort of ridiculous design that makes it clear that Game Freak is having a lot of fun coming up with new stuff, hence why Sun and Moon also has a Lei monster.
Judging from the reactions online, the new Exeggutor is a big hit. Players either love the Alola version of Exeggutor, or they’re making fun of it left and right. Some are even photoshopping/illustrating other things to have long necks like Exeggutor too.
Here are some of the best reactions to Exeggutor online:

Sun and Moon are absolutely bonkers right now. That Exeggutor reminds me of the old booster box: pic.twitter.com/5baNYt1REt

What is this, an article for ants?! It needs at least… 3… times as many Tweets.
My god! He’s absolutely right!
I want one.
Expected there to be a Jurassic Park “they do move in heards” meme pic…. I am dissapoint
Look, as much as this barely glides in as journalism, and I am usually in the facepalm camp. I got a great laugh out of this. I knew it was coming but underestimated how glorious it would become. It is missing a long-cat though
