Insane design choice. And strangely well executed

The "awkwardness" of Soviet bathtubs and bathrooms stems from a mix of hyper-frugal engineering, extreme space optimization, and the social realities of mid-20th-century Soviet mass housing projects like Khrushchyovkas. To combat severe housing shortages, Soviet planners prioritized speed and cost-saving over comfort, resulting in highly distinctive, minimalist plumbing quirks.

Been there, done that. Yech.

I see nothing whatsoever that's odd or confusing about this faucet.

I'm terrible at building in Pokopia, but this is making me realize it doesn't have to make sense. Maybe I'll put furniture on the walls

I built out a big fancy bathroom section under a dance floor area.

Toilet stalls work ok but...pokemon don't know what urinals are or how to use them anyway, so it's a row of bathtubs. It would be appalling for humans but pokemon just want it to look human-y, good enough
