Does anyone remember when pokemon's art design wasn't handled by people who couldn't draw for shit?

why does everything look so fucking simplistic now, like a 3rd grader drew it

Nigga only difference in linework is the perfect circle on ursaring, which gives no points to complexity. They're even both basically 2 color schemes.

It also makes it easier for fans to draw accurate pictures of them. Pretty much everything outside of official artwork for the early gens have them off model or without detail.

Whoever made that is fucking retarded, you need look no further than the Sylveon bit.

I can point to the corner of the fucking jaw.
Only solid point he has is more animu eyes, which is true but not universal. It's also a japanese game, the fuck do you expect in currentyear?

>>339750441
there is nothing wrong with simplicity in itself, but i think neo-pokemon's design problem has to do less with being to simple or being too over-designed but with lack of polish and moderation. some of the newer designs just lack care, effort and thought. like its; let's do this lazily or this looks cool.

I agree with this 100% even tho I like some new pokemons
The old art-style is clearly superior

I feel the new Pokemons would look much better in an art-style like the classic Toriyama-esque style
>>
>>339754210
Seriously

Mah Nigga Scrafty would be awesome if he was design in the old art-style

imagine if his shedded skin hoodie and scale mohawk had some good detail to it
>>
>>339750441
Quite sure the rotom dex in that picture comes from an artwork style that usually simplifies everything. Also just how autistic to make images and threads about this?

It's actually good design since that it represents the virtual assistants and robots in today's technology.

This faggot without fail. What the fuck does gratitude having to do with anything?
Those looks artistically consistent to their own universe and give me a Japanese AAH Real Monster vibe. Something from the 'slime' and 'gross out' obsessed 90's. Most look cool

Every fucking thread and I still agree with this guy

The Rotom-Dex will be comic relief in the Ashime. Every saga they have a Pokemon that breaks out of its ball to cause mischief. This saga is Chespin, next saga will be Rotom.
>>
>>339750441

Because it's easier to transfer to 3D models
>>
>>339764320
It's psychotic to agree with yourself.

Nah, I've always liked it, and still do, though I prefer Sugimori to Ohmura.

Also ORAS Pokedex is the worst, shit's tacky as hell. Best is probably FRLG.

They've always sold out, since gen fucking one they have been sellouts, Pokemon's success, especially in the west, was not an accident and if you still believe it was you're retarded.
