So he always changed his color.
He's a big guy

The sprites had the wrong colors until Gen 5.

>>25819927
ikr but just why the fuck?
>>25819927
I hate how lazy they were not to remake the hoenn mons artwork, it is outdated as shit
>>25819927
but why? is gf stupid?
Bagon > Shelgon > Flygon
>>25819906
It's a big croissant though.
>>25819952
>even shelgon is better than flygon
flygon was a mistake
>>25819902
>has?
>>25819947
It's because the series still uses the same general art style from RS.
Some part of me wishes that Bagon's dreams of flying had come to naught, and Salamence was this big beefy land-bound tank of a dragon after partially coming out of Shelgon's protective armor. Then his Mega Evolution would have finally given him wings and let him achieve everything he had always wanted, but only for the duration of battle. I'm a sucker for bittersweet shit like that.
>>25820036
actually i like him the way he is.
>>25820036
>that design
sweet jesus why
>>25820068
whats so bad? its actually an improvement over croissant kite design
>>25820026
Well at least update the washed out colors
>>25820068
Seems fine to me, at least as a natural progression from Shelgon.
>>25819883
Gen 3>>>Gen 5>Gen 4
>>25819927
Which is a shame since Hoenn's palette was far superior
>>25820036
>unironically wanting that diaper looking abomination
Leave
>>25820195
Nah. Unlike you I don't jack off to diaper porn, so that wouldn't be the first place my mind goes when I see a design like that.
>>25819927
i think you mean, the colors were right untÃl gen 5
>>25819947
Not really. The official art style has stopped using watercolors as the coloring medium since Gen 3. Notice that FR/LG artwork of Clefairy is on pair with both the RS artwork of the Hoenn pokemon and later generations. Not necessary for complete revamps when the art style hasn't changed much.

>Implying vanilla Salamence isn't a natural progression
Shelgon was literally a dragon pupa that created a starting point of Bagon's drastic metamorphosis. And Salamence's belly is entirely covered of Shelgon's shell remains anyway so it's even less drastic than a butterfly change
>>25819947
It didn't need remaking. Kanto and Johto got remade cuz watercolor.
>>25819933
I like purple-ish Salamence better to be honest.
>>25820036
Could have been cool for a split evo or something I guess.
>>25820036
Love the idea, hate that art.
>>25820548
>>25820333
>>25820026
I get what he's sayiing. It's not as oudated as RGBY/GSC art, but it's in this sort of intermediate style between that and the current FRLG-emerald to current style
>>25820036
it looks like a tampon
