Which would you rather pick, a Pokemon that looks decent or one that's immune to priority moves?
I don't want to catch any of them
>still caring about Pokemon
If I need my fix, I'll just play HG/SS.
That fish is up there for least favorite Pokemon ever.
Others are solid to good.
>>343313149
Welp, the fall of pokemon will be shit designs, nice to know.

Being immune to priority isnt even that great. So it can beat talonflame, who gives a shit? Sneaky pebbles already does that for me.

pokemon fags make political conservatives look liberal
Quick question, is it a bad thing when people tell a 24 year old man that he looks like the kid from Neverending Story? I get that all the time, i wonder why.
The game is looking fine, but Pokemon is getting old, they really need to start innovating with the gameplay and make it more interactive or they will start losing sells by the millions.
>>343313149
Looking at the thumbnail I thought top left was a hedgehog with a party hat.
Voltorb, Electrode, Magnemite and Magneton say hello. Pokemon was always dumb. You're just old enough (hopefully) to realize it.
>>343313149
Everything looks perfectly fine except the battery bug and the Pikachu clone. Especially the Pikachu clone. Seriously, what the hell?
>>343315492
Magneton is great you fucking cunt. Kill yourself.

Out of all the gen 1 designs how many can you say look objectively stupid? The most common ones I always see are Voltorb, Electrode, Magnemite, Magneton, Diglett, Dugtrio, Grimer, Muk, Mr.Mime, and Jinx. So only about 10. Out of 151. Meanwhile we have like 13-14 new pokemon revealed for gen 7 and almost all of them look like fucking shit. Its not nostalgia you retard.
>>343316106

>>343314839
Technically we had 3 gens of poorly colored, washed out sprites. 4 and 5 were the only two generations that have been able to get the colors right.

>one is a box

>>343314996
This. Those are pretty shit but I'd at least try out the bottom right one. It looks like there was some effort in its design.
>>343316324
>Not liking the gen 2 sprites
Get a load of this fag. Some of the best 8-bit sprites around. They still look good to this day. Especially the crystal version sprites.
>>343313149
They're all great except sonichu and pastel slut fish
>>343315369
They did, they have a match 3 game, a dungeon crawler, two Gamecube games where you catch opponent's Pokemon, among others. The difference between the mainline games and the spin-offs? Most of the mainline games score well with critics.
tfw all mass forms of animation has gone to absolute unoriginal, easy to produce garbage. even japan outsources everything to korea and the rest is done on computers.
>>343313967
I can appreciate the fish after seeing this picture.
>>343316727

Struggle has been ???-type since Gen IV and stayed even after that type was removed.
And Return is one of the most useful TMs in-game
>>343316193
Koffing, Wheezing, the eggs, the Pinapple looking dude, Porygon, a lot of them are dumb. It's ok to like it, but don't make it more than it was.
>>343317218
I never see anyone hate on those designs. Koffing is a neat design anyways.It looks like a floating mine.
>>343313149
aside from bootleg Pikachu and bootleg Whirlipede
these are actually pretty good. Only thing I would change are the eyes of the Triggerfish

That's cute though. Only boxbug is a new cutie.
I'll say it. I don't get what's so bad about the fish.

>>343313149
How about YOU come up with an original pokemon design.
I agree that it's the character artists job to invent new and unique pokemon, but it's gotten to the point where there's almost 1000 pokemon. Gamefreak probably spends all day looking for things they havent made pokemon out of already.
>>343319192
oh shit nigga
i hope it's good
>>343319303
Its typing is decent at least. Let's hope it's more of a Scolipede and less of a Butterfree.

>>343319817
Leavanny was also pretty trash, but Volcarona, Galvantula, Scolipede, and Genesect more than make up for it.
>>343319838
That doesnt invalidate them as candidates for becoming pokemon. We already have a garbage bag pokemon.
>>343316691
It was actually the scores for the Mystery Dungeon games that began me not giving a shit about 'critics' or 'reviews' otherwise. To this day I am angry that Pokemon X & Y have such high scores and Red Rescue Team comes in at 67. How do you play first 2 gens of mystery dungeon games and not realize that they are far superior to the garbage that the main series has become?
>>343320041
Leavanny has webs at least. In any case, both Crustle and Leavanny are miles better than Butterfly, Beedrill, Beautifly, Ariados, Dustox and Kricketune.
Escavalier and Accelgor were both decent too. That's a 5/7 on bug types that aren't NU.
Could rail gun bug be the next Volcarona?please
>>343313346

>>343320557
Something to do with a majority of the gen one games being in retrospective absolute shit, with constant inconsistent with what moves are supposed to do and what they actually do, and more bugs than any of Todd Howard's wild rides. The only gen one game that based on today's standards that is actually still playable is Yellow. Gen 2 is so better than Gen 1 in every way its astounding.
>>343320723
Valcarona was bretty gud, man. New bug doesn't have a x4 weakness to meme rocks so it's a step in the right direction.
>>343320723
Its already better off than volcarona due to electric/bug type. Its only weak to fire, and rock (and its not a double weakness thankfully so skeaky pebbles only hits it for 25%).
>>343320258
Beedrill is pretty good now with mega. Butterfree is garbage and even got powercreeped in its Quiver Dance/Sleep Powder niche by Vivillion. I'm hoping for a mega but it's very unlikely this long after Beedrill got one.
>>343321675
>I'm hoping for a mega but it's very unlikely this long after Beedrill got one

ORAS was only one game ago

>>343324021
A ball with eyes has more detail than a worm in Gen 7. Just look at the eyeballs. The worm has literal cube for eyes while Voltorb looks expressive with his eyes. Not only that but he also has proper coloring unlike the worm which is just flat colors.
>>343324282
That busbug has shades on as well.
That nigga is cool as fuck.

I so love this design.
>>343324021
Ah yes the classic "b-but gen 1/2/3/4/5/6 had shitty Pokemon so this one can too!".
Guess what? Just because your mom hasn't told you to go to bed yet doesn't mean you get to stay up late, now fuck off.

Literally nothing you said makes sense or is even true.
>>343324785
>Literally nothing you said makes sense or is even true.
Just because you want to cover your ears and yell "LA LA LA NOT TRUE" doesn't make it any less true. Voltorb's eyes have a distinct style to them while the bug's eyes are literally a blue cube inside of a bigger white cube. The coloring is better as in the bug is flat green while Voltorb has proper shading with light reflecting upon it.
>>343325139
You're comparing official art to a 3D model. The bug's art has shading too.
Also the bug has eyes, they're hidden behind the square.
>>343324021
>muh genwunner meme

>>343325139

Yeah I actually see that now. Maybe next time the retard who made that pic should actually post the official art instead of the in-game model.
>>343325407
The picture was made before we had the official art.
>>343325407
Picture existed before the art. You underestimate the lengths people will go to shitpost

you do realize that pokemon is a game intended to be played by children and not 20+ year olds who read into everything and bitch about anything they can right?
>>343319398
Designs like that tend to get good stats, if it looks fast it will be fast.
>>343327763

>/vp/ hates genwunners that defend everything about the old games
>but they'll vehemently defend everything about the new games
You people are the same level of faggotry except on the opposite side.
>>343319398
The cooler the design the higher/better the stat spreads. Gamefreak really know what things will be meta and attach good stats to the most appealing designs on purpose.
The Hedgehog, Bee fly, Old Dragon and ugly fish are more at risk of shitty stats than the electric bug.
>>343327140
T-they just fainted.
>>343328180
When I first saw these designs I thought they were shitty fakes, but then the animation just sort of makes you realize they aren't that bad.
The box bug still has terrible colorization and I don't exactly like TRIGGERED fish's design, but mainly it's because I think trigger fish are a retarded animal to base a pokemon off of.
Sonichu is probably the worst regional electric rodent yet.
>>343328419

Can't decide if I should hold off for this or get OR/AS instead.

>>343316691
Maybe if the mystery dungeon games weren't shit then people would play them? I am a huge Pokemon fan, and I don't want to be a furry wandering around in a shitty cavern with other shitty Pokemon all while masked as a tactical rpg with god awful controls.
Those games where you are a Pokemon toy get god awful reviews.
On the other hand I would like to play Poken, but it is only on Wii U and we know it will never come to a handheld that we could all enjoy.
So don't act like we are bad people for not liking the alternatives when the alternatives are all trash. Nintendo just wants to throw out trash games and slap Pokemon in the title to cash grab, and game freak won't make the games any different because then they would be ousted as a one trick pony that doesn't have other skills.

Voltorb was just a mimic. All items on the ground looked like orbs and in the power plant they were sometimes Voltorbs.
Bugbus is just the obligatory low level 3 evolution bug pokemon that will suck.

Me too. I like his typing and his design. He needs an Evo or he'll be too weak to use. Which is the problem with pikachu and his clones

1. A large portion of this thread is from /vp/ and shits on Gen 1 Pokemon.
2. Only the most obsessive and autistic Pokenut will reply to either of my post. Why would someone who doesnt' know the answer post? They're either truly clueless (Not Likely) or memeing (Highly Likely)
3. Most /vp/ers are from the age 14-18 and have never played a Gen 1 pokemon game
Thank you to the only 2 serious posters.

SNAKES are good when they're male and they have two penises, but they're best when they're tittymonsters the size of a house.
