The exceptions don't make the rule, but we can play this game if you want.
Go look through the first few generations and tell me the designs always start with a circle. In the newest ones, it's blatantly obvious that when the artist draws a Pokemon, they first draw a circle.
I'll give you Natu, voltorb, and our friendly magnet pokemon but come the fuck on look at this shit.
They get more spherical, softer with less "texture" to them. I'm not saying that's BAD, I'm just not a fan of this direction.

>when the artist draws a Pokemon, they first draw a circle.

You do know that drawing a circle/oval is art 101 right? You use a circle for faces, body parts, animals, almost everything organic is either drawn with a circle or an oval. And as cartoon animals, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to change the face shape past the circle because something with too much detail will look out of place.

Lets look at the iconic Pikachu. His head is a circle which is attached to a longer oval for the body. Ovals makeup the outline of the feet and arms and also the ears. The tail is likely an oval in sketch form as well. And if you look at one from the side, they use a smaller oval for the snout. It really does make sense that the basic parts of the Pokemon itself would be a basic shape (kids are the demographic after all) and detailing out little parts of the design make it unique.

Besides, the way they eventually started drawing gen 1 Pokemon helped make everything look more cohesive because really, there were a few from the original 150 that just looked fucking ridiculous and would seem extremely out of place next to current mons if they hadn't altered their design.

Not him, but you missed the point.

A lot of new designs are noticeably simple in their shapes, as though they start with a circle-based skeleton to draw from but didn't add detail to the outline. It's just the shift to the stylised that has been apparent for a long time. Clearly, anon prefers less stylised designs.

You are basically saying "Yeah, the style of the first generation is different from the style of newer generations, so they had to change them a little so they wouldn't look out of place." I agree. But anons point was that this change is not a good one.

Gunna stop you right there. There's a difference between starting with a circle and making it OBVIOUS you started with a circle and are too lazy to give your drawing any fucking form and stick to basic geometric shapes.

Call it cherry picking if you want but a lot of older pokemon have more ambition in their "shapes" and it's more pleasing to the eye because you spend more time looking at it and following the lines, where as these new starters you just need to glance at once and you've seen all there is. Am I making sense?

Gen 1, maybe not.
Gen 2, yeah, basically everything was blobby and amorphous.
>>
The Legendary for Pokemon Sun is like a cool Cyberpunk Space Lion thing, with Digital eyes filled with the universe.

The Moon legendary is basically a Moon Frisbee.

As for the starters, the grass owl, though cute as it is, has a silhouette that's about as visually interesting as a Furby. (Even less so because at least Furby had ears)

The fire cat has a black & red edgelord vibe but if you like Kiki's Delivery Service it's not so bad.

The Water Sea Lion is quirky and adorable. It may have animu eyes but it's basically perfect.

Honestly, at this point, I'd wait until they reveal the evolution line before making any rash decisions.
>>
>>26262734
>But anons point was that this change is not a good one.

Eh, I dunno. Pokemon was pretty much my entire life for the first two generations and gen 3 was the last game I bought for a long time. It just didn't appeal to me the way it used to and I could never really put my finger on why.

I bought Pokemon black & white and I enjoyed it enough but I didn't feel the same excitement I did originally. But then X and Y came out and all of a sudden I was hyped all over again. For a long time I thought it was because I'd have enough of the same basic sprite visuals and such which X and Y fixed but then I just got Omega Ruby and I'm not enjoying it all that much, even with the updated visuals. I think now that its the direction which Pokemon took design wise that threw me off the wagon. I really don't like any of the starters and ended up picking Torchic as it was the least offensive in my eyes and I'm halfway through the game and most of my team are mons from gen 1 and 2.

X&Y are the most visually appealing to me for multiple reasons but the biggest seems to be the Pokemon designs. And honestly? gen 7 is the ONLY one where I like all three starters. So, even though I've been playing these games since the 90's, I still think the designs are headed in the right direction. I'm not shackled down by nostalgia though so that might have something to do with it.

>black & red edgelord vibe
It's only got an 'edgelord' vibe if you're a faggot who loves memes and seeing the word 'edgy' gets your dick all chubbed up so you look for an excuse to label things.
There is nothing inherently gothic, obtuse, or violent about the red and black colour scheme. Red and black is very common for a lot of fire type pokemon.

Nothing wrong with edge. Just using the hostility of environment as a tool of your own instead of letting it eat away at you in silence.
>>
>>26262773
I get what your saying. It's just a tendency though, and one that's probably even exemplified with the fairy type, which is pretty much defined by soft and simple lines. Notable exception is of course Xerneas. But there still are "ambitious" designs among newer generations, only they are unlikely to be basic stages. And something like Furfrou is probably somewhere in the middle.

I genuinely don't understand why everyone is so positive toward the new pokemon. I want to like them, but they're all so bland. Especially Litten, it's fucking atrocious. It's LITERALLY just a black cat with red features.
>B-But squirtle is just a blue turtle!
It also had a big blue swirly tail. Plus, turtles are already related to water. If you made the red parts of Litten grey, it would just be a completely normal cat.

Not to mention the legendaries are fucking awful. They don't look celestial at all, and they look even more robotic than Dialga and Palkia. Not to mention that, opposite of the starters, they're way to over-complex.

>G-Genwunner!
I'm normally the person who defends later gens. It's not that I hate them because they're new or to be a contrarian, I genuinely don't see how people can like them.
>>
>>26263718
>Normal cats have spiked tails
>>
>>26263718
I agree Litten is the weakest design here.

I also agree that the legendaries are overly busy, but I don't think it's worse than Dialga/Palkia or Reshiram/Zekrom. And, personally, I do get a celestial vibe from them. At least from the lion.
>>
>>26263753
>Wicks are black
>Wicks are connected to cats
Besides, it's clearly really scruffy. The thought of it possibly being a wick didn't even come to mind until someone on here mentioned it.

>>26264001
It also covered in oil.
If they made it more shiny would be more conveyed however.
>>
>>26263976
>I don't think it's worse than Dialga/Palkia or Reshiram/Zekrom
Nah, it's definitely worse. All of those pokemon definitely had very crowded and not very good designs, but not to the extent of the Sun/Moon legendaries. The sun one looks like it's wearing robot armor, and the moon one looks like some sort of flying trampoline with a skeleton on it.
>I do get a celestial vibe from them. At least from the lion.
I don't see how. I mean, they're both obviously shaped by the sun and moon logos, but aside from that, they're just weird robotic things. The only thing that really screams "space" about them is the stars being projected on the giant TV screens they have on their bodies.
>>
>>26264079
That fact isn't conveyed in its design. If it was, I'd be fine with it. I wouldn't like it, but it wouldn't be the worst pokemon ever designed. Personally, I think the way it makes fire by licking itself and collecting oil and spitting out fire-hairballs is a neat idea, but the design itself is what I'm complaining about.
>>
>>26264108
Loads of Pokemon have cool things which are not always apparent in stills.
I think Samurott's ability to use side weapons and switch to bipedal stance is one of the more blatant.
>>
>>26264177
But Samurott also has the seashell motif. Litten just has that one fact about it being oily to make it fire related.

>>26263718
>they look even more robotic than Dialga and Palkia
No, at least you can recognize them as animals, a bat and a fucking lion.

Dialga is a nothing, it's the weirdest fucking thing that looks like nothing, it has giant pieces of steel coming out of everywhere and his art expression literally gave no idea of emotion or anything.

At least Palkia can at least be described as dragon somewhat.

That's the best you can get close to describe them, and yet dialga long dumb alien head makes him way different from long neck dinos and palkia's body shape doesnt really fit any dino archetype well so the best you can describe them is as generic weird monsters (kaiju)

>>26263718
The cat doesn't just have stripes. It has a brimstone symbol on its face and a bomb wick tail. The cat is probably my least favorite, but I can still see it for what it is, anon. Besides, it's literally the first in the evolution line - they're not meant to be incredibly inspired. They're the base for something (ideally) greater.

Rowlet has shit typing, also memey af.

Popplio's animal concept too similar to Oshawott/Samurott. Evolution will either be awesome or complete shit, no in between.

Litten overall is the safest regarding evolution potential. First actual cat starter, cute aloof face.
>>
>>26264999
These are blatant lies. Do you really think that Game Freak, first of all, would include a symbol of something that originated from Christianity? Secondly, do you think they'd expect the general pokemon audience to know what the Brimstone symbol even looks like? Also, the cat already has scruffy details, it makes sense that it'd have a scruffy tail. If they wanted it to be a wick they would've made it white to make it obvious.

I totally agree, I hope it turns into some badass clown or jester. I think I might go with Litten since it's cute and I haven't really used a fire starter since Gen 3. I always used fire for a second playthrough to see how it is.

I like all the starters, but I'm really hesitant to allow Rowlet's typing onto a team without it doing something phenominal.

I'm really disappointed with all 3 starters, just like last Gen.

Guess it's another Pokémon game with no starter on my team.

That Sea Lion, is an absolute travesty.

I haven't got anything too bad to say about Zoids, but FlatBat is an aesthetic monstrosity.

Why does it have no legs? Why is it so two-dimensional? Why does such a hyper-stylized Pokémon have weird, semi-realistic claws jutting from its otherwise simple, geometric wings?

I can't think of a worse designed legendary, including Palkia.

You've got to be out of your goddamn mind.

You won't be missed, take your shit taste elsewhere.

Glad I'm not the only one. They're all so cute. Tempted to buy both versions purely so I can trade myself all 3 starters...
>>
>>26266421
>Why does it have no legs?
Biggest problem on the design, i agree with you there.

>Why is it so two-dimensional?
What does that even mean? It a fucking bat with giant ass flat wings and a small lean almost non-existent body, of course it looks thin.

>Why does such a hyper-stylized Pokémon have weird, semi-realistic claws jutting from its otherwise simple, geometric wings?
>those claws
>semi realistic


>You've got to be out of your goddamn mind.
I can say that at least BW and RS are arguable specially since i do agree that the bat design is not amazing, but DP is not up to discussion, they are the worst, it has been a fucking decade and just looking at D/P cover art makes me mad, they are fucking atrocious in every way.
>>
>>26266700
>non-existent body
This is what I'm wondering; why does it have no body? Why is it almost entirely 2 dimensional apart from its head? Again, why does it have no legs? It looks ridiculous, as though it's just a floating head with a hint of humanoid posture and a cape.

>semi-realistic
It's the only part of the Pokémon that mimics with some degree of accuracy something you might see on a real animal. The fingers are contoured, have knuckles, and aren't nearly as abstract as the rest of the design. They're the only thing that looks functional on this fucking mess. I'm not suggesting they're 1:1 simulacra of bat fingers, I'm only saying they're out of place on the otherwise hyper stylized body.

Buy both games. Use 1 as a main game and use the 2nd for nuzlockes/wonderlockes or for trading version exclusives and starters.

So the kitten is the early rising sun, the pink nose is the just rising moon, and the owl is like a seed?

Why is Moon Cat edgy? The only reason I'm rolling that is because I'm too autistic to have my starter and the game's legendary both be cats.

Instead of picking one of these lack luster starters, do what I'm going to do and use your bro as your starter. You just have to wait til the first pokemon center and upload your old mons.

You replied to me with "boo hoo" which implies to me that I replied to you, and every post I replied to used the 4chan lingo term of "edgy/edge".

If I was upset I would be unhappy, worried, or in distress. I type everyday to fucking retards like you with the same attitude as eating a bowl of cereal. You're nothing, you're shit, and a fucking moron.

>>26261514

You can be a faggot and wait for the second stage, and maybe third stage, evolutions just so you have a better idea of the general direction they're going for, which one gets bulky, which one gets frail, etc.

Or you can do it the fun way and choose a version and starter and stick with them no matter what, bonus points if you avoid spoilers as well. For instance I'm getting Sun/Popplio and my wife is getting Moon/Litten. We've made our decisions and we're sticking with them.
