Literally 90s Nickelodeon teen comedy: the graphic design.
>>
You are the perfect one, OP :3
>>
Looks like a fighting games HP bar. Now I want to see other slight changes, like an animation of a Pokemon dodging an attack when an attack misses, rather than now how you just don't see an attack at all if it misses. Same as with when a Pokemon hit into a Protect or King's Shield, there should be an animation for that.

Yo-kai Watch say hi

it's pretty meh and generic imo, it reminds me of other JRPGs health bars like Kingdom Hearts or Persona
>>
>>26340837
It isn't even remotely similar to the pic.
>>
It is not.
It's fucking asymmetric and I hate that.

>>26340817
holy shit lol

I like it. It has a wild jungle-like aesthetic suited for Hawaii.

Platinum still best

I do like the tilt, though
>>
Can anyone say me what this blue color shit behind the HP bar is?
>>
the paint splash should be orange in Sun version

As soon as a Pokemon's HP falls below 100%, the bar becomes asymmetric anyways.

>>26340802
It's not trying to be badass. It's fun and colorful, and that's great.
>>
Aesthetically pleasing, I give them that.
>>
>>26340901
>it's not part of the background

Nevermind, it it's trash like everything else.

Design.

Looks rather shit but i dont care that much.

>>26340802
I would have liked it if not for that awful color splash, shit is going to get REAL old and look out of place during any battle that isn't in tropical outdoors
>>
>>26341333
>mfw every battle is in a tropical setting
>>
>>26340802
Yes yes, keep overhyping every shitty little detail. Can't wait for all the WUT WENT WRONG? threads after the games finally release.
>>
>>26340893
How bout you just jump/fly over Surf, instead of being a contrarian asshat.
>>
>>26341371
Well in all fairness that's going to happen regardless of how good the games actually are.
>>
>>26341146
It's like Saved by the Bell puked all over a paper cup.

The retro future is now.

Getting a major Mario Sunshine vibe with the teal squiggle

Atta guy.

New pokemon!! im so pumped!

Being clean and thick is very much characteristic of current design trends.
>>
The bar is mostly symmetrical, from top to bottom. The only asymmetrical part of the bar that's "bothersome" is the tip at the top-right. Though that shouldn't be a big deal because what's the point of caring about the HP at that point of the bar.
>>
>>26341481
I think they did it to create the effect of the bar facing inwards. And though what you say is sound, it also makes sense that the bar would be the largest at the highest health.
>>
>>26340886
But that help the player know who's hp was who's.
>>
Splatoon Incoming >>26340802
>>
>>26340874
It's going to be symmetric to the opposing pokémon.
>>
I dig it. UI changes, while small and have no bearing on the gameplay are just nice QoL changes every now and again.
