dont remember seeing digimons design based on keys
pokemon, on the other hand, has had a lot of design based on man-made things (swords, chandelier, washing machine, ice cream, etc)
Only recent ones though xD
I mean voltorb and magnemite were gen1, but most of them in gen1 was animal(Idk bout Jynx though) related.
But really, it's just because they are running out of ideas. They have done everything up to God basically.
Solution: More man-made item pokes.
And wasn't the washing machine just a possession form for Rotom? It literally took over a man-made item I thought.
Really though, if you named that key pokemon keymon, I don't think anyone would know the difference.
And the whole temp super evo with a particular item required? Never heard of that idea anywhere xD
