So why did Brendan get faggotized?
because japan is the most emasculated country on earth
Sugimori's art style changed since Gen 3. Hopefully the customization from XY is back because him and May both look hideous to me.
this is how he looks now? God damn it.
>>254714582
I don't mind Brendan, also his gay smile and pose represents Ruby and Saphire Brendan.
What I mind is that they made May too girly. She looked cool for a guy to play as in Emerald and Ruby
All versions of Brendan are elder god tier.
He was always a faggot. Pick May.
>>254714684
That's a weird way to spell Sweden
Looks manlier though
look at dem pecs
>>254715108
If you are a guy that plays as a female, you are undercover gay. Doesn't matter what game.
>>254714582
To appeal to Nintendo's core audience.
>>254714582
How could anyone think the right one looks faggier than the left one? At least the right one looks like he might grow up to be a man one day.
Does someone have that comparison picture of the main characters change in heartgold and soulsilver compared to the old one?
>>254715108
But they ruined May even worse.
>>254715376
Pretty much every guy I know who plays as a girl in games has either straight up come out as gay or admitted to sucking a dick or something.
Also look at those broad shoulders.
I would let him fuck my ass.
Actually looks like he wears something practical.
>>254715439
>implying you won't be able to change her outfitand hopefully hat this time
>>254714582
Actually he looks a lot better. He's now a mid-ripped sport type compared to the faggoty otaku type on the left.
>>254715619
You could change hats in X/Y, you couldn't remove them though
>>254715108
I was wondering when we'd see art of these two together. May and Mei, both with big breasts.
>>254714582
Same reason they ruined the other protagonists. They fucked up the art style a long time ago.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH HIS FUCKING SHOES
>tfw when brendan is basically zyzz
>tfw may is more of a man then he'll ever be
>>254714582
>cargo shorts over pants
what the fuck was old Brendan doing

>>254715768
>toriyama sameface midget
>better
No.
>>254715768
>Tree trunk legs on 10 year olds and box faces
>Good art style
nah
The default X/Y faget looked better now that I think about it
kinda like James
>>254714582
what the hell are these?
>>254715768
>ruined
Get outta here you nostalgia fag
He is pretty low on the boy tier list anyway.
>>254714582
he was always one
gen 3 is the worst one of them all
>They made his hat look more like a hat than hair
I liked it better when I thought that was his hair.
>>254716205
Black, Blacker, and Calem look the same.
>>254714582
>Wearing pants under your shorts in a tropical region
full retard
>>254714582
Well at least he's not wearing pants under his shorts anymore.
That color scheme is still vomit inducing though.
>>254715619
My dad works for Gamefreak. Customization was the obligatory feature they took out this time.

>>254716450
FUCK YOU JOHN GAMEFREAK
What bothers me is that Emerald "hat" clearly looks like hair.
>>254716205
B/W1 had the best protag designs of the franchise.
![HeartGold_SoulSilver_Silver[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/n27Cm9n.png "HeartGold_SoulSilver_Silver[1].png")
>>254716141
They're squished from resizing.
See >>254715003They're ultra faggy no matter how you look at them, though
>>254716141
Shoes anon
>>254715376
So i"m gay for playing Bayonetta or Metroid?
>retard wearing multiple layers in a fucking tropical region
seems more to me like he stopped being a faggot, OP
>>254716471
>those comments
Disgusting. His hat as hair was better.
>>254715376
You seem oddly fixated on homosexuality; you most likely spend more time thinking about homosexuality than the average person.
>>254716682
Terrible trainer and an asshole, but he was alright
![220px-Platinum_Lucas[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/ukqmobD.png "220px-Platinum_Lucas[1].png")
Just popping in to say Platinum Lucas is the best designed male protag. Gotta have that scarf for the treacherous snow on route 216.
>>254714582
>no underpants
>>254716229
It was his hair until they retconed it in Emerald.
>>254716764
>bawwww he doesn't look like one of my edgy anime characters nowwww
>>254715975
>>254716380
It's a swimsuit you fucking idiot

And all is right with the world.
>>254715126
What's wrong with Sweden?
>>254715003
>She looked cool for a guy to play in Emerald and Ruby.
Nigga unless you are playing Godzilla or a fighting game it is never cool to play as a girl, especially when the difference is only aesthetic.
>>254717057
No, BW2 protag uses a swimsuit, those are clearly pants.
full baka
>>254714582
>red
>black
>white
>green
Why? Was the man who thought this was okay color-blind?
>>254716610
>>254716715
they looks like squashed high heels with socks on
Because they wanted to give players a reason to pick the female character.
>>254714582
>faggotized
You kidding? He looks like he could tear it up on a surfboard.
>>254717158
>it is never cool to play as a girl
>Implying I'm not playing grils in pokemon all the time
Not even gay, just a pervert
>>254717223
So they had to make the male character become a homo?
>>254716943
Lucas is complete shit. You want a good looking protagonists? Look no more
>>254716943
I still give it to Hilbert for having the more practical hat.
he doesn't have white hair?
>>254715376
thank you le armchair psychiatrist
>>254717217
In actuality anon, they don't and nitpicking tiny details like that is stupid. Just regular velcro slip on shoes.
>>254717023
It...It always looked like hair to me even in Emerald.
>>254715376
Now hold on. That's not true under a single condition, and that condition ismotherfucking GRNDER LOCKED FUCKING CLASSES.
Seriously why is that still a fucking thing?
>>254714582
Same reason Red and Ethan did.
Cry more hoennfag. You aren't special.
>>254717335
Yes. It's either you're gay for picking the homo character or gay for picking the female character.
>>254717350

>>254717031
>bawwww he doesn't like my sketch D;

>>254717350
Hilda is the best girl Y/N? and why
>>254717107
She's got a coat on faggot.
I'm not willing to sacrifice cuteness for practicality, anyone who is can fuck off.
>>254717107
Two words: easy access.
Your Pokemon have all fainted and you're rushing to the Pokemon Center when suddenly you see this on the side of the road. What do you do?
>>254717678
Cynthia a best!
>>254715768
Same thing that happend with all of Nintendo's shit.
It got all pussy and baby-fied. Like how they made the Animal Crossing characters less mean because it made children cry
>>254716061
As apposed to typical japanese animu face?
May have been toriyama ripoff but at least back then it wasn't indistinguishable with every other franchise in the anime vidya industry.
>>254717678
A time ago she was.
She was usurped by Rosa.
Game Freak is terrible at designing their main characters, especially their shoes.
Just absolute trash.
I don't who the fuck designs outfits and hair for their games, but they should be fired.
>>254717694
She can look cute while having warm legs you goddamn Nosepass.
>>254717570
Read it in his voice despite not seeing the show in a decade.
>>254716746
Yes.
>>254717419
in actuality, they look like slip on clown shoes
>>254717540
Joltiks are fucking tiny and will crawl up your legs.
My name is Brendan, and I was a fucking idiot back in the day and named my character something stupid, not realizing our names were the same. I'll never forgive myself.
>>254715975
>cargo
>>254717819
>my Pokemon fainted
Immersion ruined.
>>254717927
>not being able to see her legs

No, fuck off.
>>254717819
Keep rushing to the Pokemon Center. They need healing.
RS Brendan > ORAS Brendan > E Brendan
>>254717819
Use the revives I have on hand and prepare a bowl of eggs.
>>254717819
Impregnate.
>>254717819
I don't understand... Are her tits out and she just doesn't have nips? Or is she wearing some weird skin-colored top under her other two tops? Guess the answer doesn't really change. Fuck the Pokemon, they can stay in sleepy land for another half hour or so.
>the one not wearing shorts over his pants is the faggot
I liked it better when Brendan had white hair.
R/S had the best designs by far out of the 3 remakes
/v/ is so full of nostalgiafags when it comes to pokemon it's always the same garbage holy shit
>>254714582
he looks more manly now though.
broader frame, healthy tan, dominant grin.

>>254718052
>>254718171
He never had white hair though.
When is Pokemon going to go full DQ9 and let you clothe and customize your character how you want?
>>254715003
Left Brendan is the best. Any who disagree are wrong
>>254716817
>if you call people faggots, t-then you are secretly gay!
So if I call blacks niggers, am I secretly a nigger? liblogic
>>254717884
>but at least back then it wasn't indistinguishable
Except with everything by Toriyama, you know.
Sugimori has never looked unique, but at least now he looks better.
>>254717968
Yeah i'll give you that. Like his folks took him to the store and purposely bought oversized shoes knowing he would just fuck off one day and never change his clothes.
>>254717678
>>254717350
>they design this beautiful son of a bitch
>Oh shit I can't wait to see her in the anime as the obligatory female companion!
>lel nah
>in fact she doesn't appear at all in any form
>instead we get this shitskin ugly ass nigger YOUR SUCH A KID SUCH A KID SUCH A KID SUCH A KID SUCH A KID SUCH A KID
>>254718213
Yes he did. Go look at his back sprite for R/S.
>>254718171
his hair was never white
>they made his hair a hat
Seriously?
>>254717389
Don't mention it, my effeminate child.

>faggot who needs a haircut
>good.
>>254718334

kek
>>254717678
She's the best desinged and just has this cool look. It isn't cute, but I could imagine Hilda as an elite trainer, those military boots
>>254717191
...but it's clearly orange anon
are YOU color-blind?
>>254718334
Kill yourself
>>254718331
>doesn't know EVERY male protag but Red only appears as cameo in movies
>>254714582
Its hair
>>254718415
It's -always- been a hat.
>>254714582
>So why did Brendan get faggotized?
When he wore trousers under his shorts like some sort prat.
His ORAS version is an improvement.
>>254717903
>Rosa
>not dressing like retarded
>>254718171
>>254718213
It works better as white hair and a headband.
What stupid kind of fucking hat is that even?
>>254718540
female, anon.
I was talking about Hilda
>>254718589
>I posted it again
>>254717942
R/S beats them both
>>254718540
He is talking about Hilda you moron, who got the same treatment Leaf/Green got.
>>254718301
>Except with everything by Toriyama, you know.
Far better than having a style which panders to the entire generic style you'd find in a anime drawing for dummys book.
>>254718812
it was always a hat
>>254718334
Why don't you? It's clearly black hair and a white hat.
>>254718475
>but I could imagine Hilda as an elite trainer, those military boots
Those military boots could kick a perverted Hiker in the groin so hard if she needs to.
Are the other girls even trying?
>>254718861
Nope.
>>254718812
Dude, look at the official artwork in
>>254715003
See his brown sideburns under his hat
also
>pokemon male trainer
>not having a fucking hat
>>254714582
Huh.
So ORAS Brendan is based off of his Emerald Design.
Interesting.
>>254718589
>>254718356
lawl
>>254717942
I love how all the comparisons show Emerald designs and completely ignore R/S, because even nostalgiafags know R/S designs were complete garbage and worst in the series.
>>254717678
she looks like a trainer a real ball busting adventurer
>>254719079

I only care about the girls design though.
>>254718301
>Sugimori has never looked unique, but at least now he looks better.
>there are people that actually think this
I'm saying nothing about the quality of the games or even Pokemon designs - I really like all of the games - but his new art style is so fucking lifeless and without character. It's disgusting.
>>254718331
Game Freak just loves to leave the fans unsatisfied.
>Buying yearly Pokemon games
>Being this much of a baby casual
Go jack off to poorly drawn 10 year olds somewhere else faggots.
>people actually think pants under shorts was a good design
>>254719079
/vp/ getting BTFO
>>254719407
How about spats under shorts?
>>254719089
R/S had much better colors. Green is my favorite color and I still think it fits very poorly. Red and black may not be original, but it really works. The Emerald designs seriously look off every time I look at them, like they're palette swaps.
>>254718663
Serena is the only pokegirl with a sense for fashion.
>>254719326
This.
That feel when his old art style may have been a toriyama ripoff but god damn it at least if fucking had charm.
Every year and each generation the character designs and theme become more cuuuurazy animu bullshit. (not that I hate cuuuurazy animu bullshit. I just hate it in pokemon)
Why did Hex Maniac get waifutized?
BIG HOENN TITTIES
>>254718236
2013?
>>254719407
Maxie actually has that now if I remember right
The only issue with ORAS Brendan is the design on the hat is stupid, the green feels like a poor match, and the the actual artist is shit.
I came here expecting Mei and was disappointed.
Very, very disappointed.
>>254719597
Why is she wearing short shorts over bike shorts? That can't possibly be comfy or easy to wear.
>>254719597
I'm so glad they gave May her tits back.
>>254719579
She looks like a cross between Tomoko and Tharja.
>>254719510
Spats are always welcome
>>254719079
>>254719079
reverse BTFO (my image, look at the back of brendan's head)

>>254714582
>wearing oversized shorts over your pants
>tucking your pants into your shoes
Once a fag, always a fag.
>>254719794

beenies are fucking stupid.
>>254719043

Hey I thought they were just going with a bandana thing considering the girl was doing it too.
>>254719746
>Mei
WEEABOO ALERT
WEEABOO ALERT
THIS IS NOT A DRILL, I REPEAT THIS IS NOT A DRILL
>>254719723
That green has been around since Emerald. BIg points if you can guess why they added the green in.
>>254719854
>posting some shitty fan sheet
It's pretty obvious in the actual sprite though.
>>254719326
I know how to fix this Pokemon
>Make head just red. Remove green top.
>get rid of green feather anklets
>get rid of 3 blue leg feathers
>Remove the hands. Just have the 3 claws shown sticking out of the feathers
>make only 3 feathers on end of tail. It looks like a fucking flower atm
>make his body less round and more slender, like a snake.
Boom.
>>254718236
It already happened, except taking off your hat because a trainer worth shit must have a hat.
>>254719542
That's why she even has customization, to be the maximum fashionista, plebs aren't even allowed in Lumiose
>>254719854

You're just asspained he wasn't your glorious white-haired bishounen

>>254719882
Yes she did.
>>254719926
Calm down and have more Rosa/Mei.
>>254719326
You don't even like the style. You only miss the "i don't even know the true colors of the Pokémon" watercolors.
>>254719550
Charm? What charm does this have?
In fact what you refer as "old artstyle" is actually his SECOND style.
>>254719969
The design is fine.
>>254714582
what kind of hat is that anyways?
>>254719987
That looks nothing like a shadow you faglord.
His hair is fucking dark, it's a fucking hat, jesus fucking christ.
>H-HE JUST HAPPENS TO HAVE BLACK SIDEBURNS
>>254720128
Wait they named her Rosa? Why? That's a Mexican name, when Mei implies she's oriental, most likely Chinese.
>>254719969
>Take an exotic-looking prehistoric bird and remove all of its features
Good job, you should be a pokemon designer
>>254719854
Yes we all know it's officially a hat. Despite your sprites not being from any of the finished games.
Point is that it hasn't ALWAYS been a hat.
>>254715003
>playing as a girl
>>254719969
Nothing is wrong with that design you faggot. The watercolor style needs to come back.
Reminds me of Araki, how his artstyle got worse over time (except for SBR which had god tier art, otherwise it turned to shit)
>>254720258
Unova is America
>>254719854

Gotta love his avatar and Goku images
>>254720680
1) They don't want there to be issues when fans speak about the protags
2) They wanted to translate the name puns she has with Kyouhei/Nate (Kyoumei ->Resonate)
>>254720258
Rosa is probably Chinese-Unovian or something.
Same with Nate. I just can't see those two being full on Unovafat.
>>254720773
You can't possibly be serious.
>>254720590
That's all Japs have.
I always thought he was a faggot, even as a kid. May was infinitely better, yet GF still found a way to fuck up her character design with the new games.
>>254720896

>>254720842
This is bait isn't it?

He is from Hoenn, a tropical like land.
>>254721156
Not at all. It's counter-cute. Everything about her is ugly. I seriously don't know where to start.
>>254720972
I loved Nate's design. He's what the new Brendan should have aspired to be.
I don't mind his palm tree hair and I like the visor.
He looks well suited for Hoenn
>>254721306
lewd
>>254720258
All the protagonist names are usually localizations of their Japanese names. For the BW2 protag names
>Kyouhei + Mei = "Kyoumei" (translates to "resonate")
>Nate + Rosa = Rosanate (corrupted resonate)
And for BW1 while we're on Gen 5
>Touya and Touko are from "Tou" (translated to "to fight")
>Hilbert and Hilda are from "Hild" (some german thing meaning "battle")
>>254717354
I don't like Black/White but I still love this design.
Except the fucking names holy shit.
>>254721403
He looks better as a girl.
>>254721242
