>>27661144
Look at them and tell me they don't look even more cartoony than normal. Were fucking James Turner and Ohmura in charge of doing all the new Pokémon?

what are people demanding of a sandcastle?

There's not really an animal that relates to sand enough besides crabs/bugs and then you guys would just complain about it being a Crustle ripoff. Bewear though is fucking ugly I don't know why they let that one go through. Just minor differences would make it look much better.

But anon, we're not sure how tiny Game Freak's chink dick is.

And I'm not exactly feeling any of these, maybe the bear, but probably because of fan art. Its pre-evo is slightly eerie because of its face.

Ain't gonna ruin the fun for those who like them though, there's got to be people who... like these.

Not me, they definitely aren't for me.

I ain't saying my taste is top notch either, I happen to like detective mongoose a lot, but a whole lot of people might as well interpret it as "it just gets bigger" and "Donald Trump as a pokemon", but my opinion won't change either way.

>>27661306
The sandcastle is just tacky and lazy. Instead of designing a ghost that possesses objects (like Rotom) they said "fuck it, let's just make a moving sandcastle because it's Hawaii and there's beaches".
It's literally a sandcastle. It took me a moment to realise it was a Pokémon.

He hates them because the designs aren't really anything we've seen from the franchise, and that hurts him. They have different, riskier designs that still fit perfectly in a game about capturing monsters in a fantastical land. They spice things up while still keeping the feel of the world, but OP can't accept them trying out new things for a change.

The games have never done a sandcastle, and most people wouldn't think to do it in such a unique way.

Well, given the fact that its concept is based entirely around tricking people into thinking its just a sandcastle before collapsing into a whirlpool of quicksand, I'd say the design is pretty on point.

But there is no excuse for that flat pill shaped bear that doesn't look like a Pokemon.

It's okay to have shit taste, but you shouldn't make a point of defending it on an anonymous image board, especially when all you can do is deflect that people don't like it because it's new and they're nostalgic.

From an objective standpoint, it looks like shit, and if you like it, you are in the minority, and your ability critique is truthfully piss poor.

Now this is where I can angry with shitposters.
Pokemon has NO common thread in all its designs. There are trends, yes, but no two Pokemon look visually identical. Like, take, say Clefairy and Deoxys. If I didn''t know anything about Pokemon I wouldn't say they were from the same franchise.

>inb4 that one patterns autist is here and begins sperging out all over the thread about 'MUH MOTIFS GUISE!!!1!'

This is dumb. If those Pokemon becomes competitively viable, #Conkeldurr... People will complain now, but love it later. It's fine to have opinions but don't go hiding your crap behind "free speech" and go your way saying 'how can you defend these?', etc. The concepts are not lazy, the lores are there to prove it. If anything, I can agree more that the concepts became more connected as previous games go. If you feel like you have outgrown the game then, try it out and skip the game. If not, then control how your "opinions" are voiced. It's not as easy as black or white.

I know that no matter what I say you will cherry pick and find a counter example.

It's flat, the color choices are awkward, the white band across its head makes it appear more flat. Maybe if it was supposed to be a child's drawing or imaginary friend it would make sense.

Pokemon are diverse and its hard to pinpoint what resembles a Pokemon. Bewear does not look like a Pokemon.

So in the end, you're not saying anything close to objective. You can dislike Bewear, and realize that it's your subjective opinion. This is the type of stuff most people learn before they turn 9, anon.

You would be right, however, if your argument was that the design standards of what constitutes a Pokemon have shifted over time, as they have and will continue to do so.

Will crowd around and bite people who thinks they know more, because they are hypocritical about that. Make baseless theories about people who works on the game without knowing them... Because...

No, at the end of the day, I can clearly see that it doesn't resemble the Pokemon we've been looking forward to for the last 20 years. I have no issues with shifting design changes. RSE had a pretty stark change in designs, and they're my favorite games. I like a majority of the Gen 7 reveals thus far.

It doesn't matter to me what Gamefreak intended. It's just one of the shortcomings of what looks like a pretty decent generation. It's a blatant bad design, and doesn't look like a Pokemon.

Pic related, one of these things does not belong. I literally just thought of Pokemon at random across multiple generations and copy pasted.

I really feel like it's the art that have people reeling, rather than the design itself.
And they'd have a point. The art is just really, really shitty from a technical aspect, as anon articulated on earlier.

>>27663482
The only thing that angers me is shills who can't take criticism. People like you want to take down Rotten Tomatoes because they can't accept that the critics didn't like Suicide Squad.

>>27663500
It sticks out because you resized it larger than the others. Also, it was drawn by a different artist because they changed them for Gen VII. If I posted an image of a bunch of Gen I and II Sugimori watercolor mons, and had a giant Dream World art Venonat in the middle, it would stick out too.

>>27663500
>It sticks out like a sore thumb, anon.
It sticks out to you because you already hate it anon, simple as that. Its like the people who hate on every canine looking pokemon because its "furry-bait". It works like a trigger to them.

>>27663543
The art is shit. Ohmura can't fucking draw. But even looking at the model, it still looks empty and half-arsed.

>>27663565
But what your doing isn't criticism, it's trying to apply your criticism as FACT.

>>27663577
But Sugi didn't draw the bear, anon. And he changed his style after the third gen anyway.

>>27663615
It's a fact that there is people on this board that think that you can't dislike anything because "Yokai is worse", or because "the concept is perfect", or because that makes you a genwunner or a gonormie.

>>27663565
I just saw the video Half in the Bag did on that.

It's not necessarily the same thing. Go ahead, criticize Bewear and co. all you want. You're entitled to your opinion. But the situation is different in that you're expressing your opinion on a design in a sea of inconsistent cartoon monsters. Pokemon has something for everybody, and if you don't like it, that's ok. Just don't throw a fit about it or claim your taste is objective. There are people on this site who share your views on Bewear, but there are also people who don't. And it's meaningless to preach objectivity in a franchise where the variety of designs displays an inherent lack of it.

>>27663667

Yeah, none of the replies to my image really brought a sufficient counter argument. Just more insults and deflection. One can be passionate about the games without worshiping Gamefreak's every decision, especially in an instance as clear as this.

Do you really expect anything besides smartass responses like "yeah nidoking is way out of place :^)"

This board is so far up its own ass in denial and gamefreak apologism. They could release a literal turd Pokemon and these people would defend and praise it.

Your argument is glaringly obvious to anyone who isn't completely delusional, meaning it's a lost cause here.

>>27663639
That's exactly what I'm saying. Giant DW Venonat is going to look out of place in a sea of smaller Gen I Sugi watercolor mons. Different styles, and different artists.

Lets wait for these mofos. Y'alls see that since I'm confident Mudsdale and Bewear will be competitive viable, you will see these mofos who are conservative asf fall in love. They are hypocrites like that just because it'll end up probably easy ass win Poks.

>>27663598

Fur bait Pokemon still look like Pokemon. You've shifted the goalposts.

People can be immature. That's just how it is. There have been "you can't like this concept because I don't even though you specified exactly what it is you like about it" arguments.

>>27663772
But you could have all the previous Pokemon be drawn by other artists and the bear would still stick out like a someone wearing a deep red shirt in a group of people wearing pastel colors.

That's because you have an unhealthy obsession with the bear.

I know! It's almost like people don't need an inherit reason to like something and people have different opinions, right?

I don't like the sandcastle or Bewear, but goddamn. Why does everything need some deep, significant reason to be liked? Your original post just made it sounds like you have incurable disease of the cynicism.

>>27663838
Not really. Pokemon has always had a range of realistic to cartoony. Contrast Pidgey and Tauros with Wigglytuff and Mr. Mime. The unifying feature has always been the consistent, fantastical style that links them. When Yungoos was revealed, a lot of people shat on it because they realized the new guy didn't use as complex coloring techniques as Sugimori. But it looks fine in the game, where all of the Pokemon have a similar style to their models. And I can guarantee its gonna look fine and fit in with the anime art style, too.

>>27664210

Can't make an argument if you completely ignore the point I made and keep posting the same thing.

>>27664151
Also there's the fact that in Japanese culture living objects is normal, it's been a popular concept since the 10th century. The reason why Yokai Watch did better in Japan than the west is BECAUSE it's normal there. Yokai Watch is too entrenched in Japanese culture for it ever succeed as well outside of its own country.

The sand castle and school of fish are awesome concepts with not so good executions. I'll give you the other two though.

>>27664252
What point? All you're doing is posting Bewear next to other pokemon hoping someone agrees with you.

>>27661093
Bewear is suppose to be based on costumed character you see in theme parks. It's name in Japanese is Kiteruguma which is a play on words combining kiteru (wearing), kigurumi (costume), and kuma (bear).

I've seen people literally admit they're shitposting and still get (You)s. Anything is possible, dude.

no offense, but everyone knows that. Look at its tube arms and legs. Look at its ears that look like hair clips.

I don't even mind it. but even if it were based on a simple cartoon mascot / fursuit, couldn't it get a little detail in the fur like a growlithe or a vulpix? Its just a bunch of smooth shapes put together.

>>27664369
I claimed that "furbait" poker on standed out to people who hated those kinds of pokemon, just like Bewear "stands out" between all pokemon you posted because you already hated it.

Then you changed the subject saying the furry pokemon still looked like pokemon to which I replied that people who hated furry pokemon would disagree.

How am I strawmaning?

>>27664525

No, because it goes against the concept of the Pokemon.

Like a failed laboratory experiment to combine the three.

If you think it doesn't fit a previously established style (it does) it doesn't matter as it's establishing a new one for the franchise.

I get the inspiration, but the design needs more color balance. The white on the head isn't repeated elsewhere, and from the front black is overwhelming the pallete. A small lighter patch on the stomach helps it a lot in my eyes.

>>27665628
Bewear is literally just using a red panda color scheme. The only thing its missing is orange fur and a little white pattern variation on its face.

Regular Sandslash is pretty average defensively to be fair. 75 HP just doesn't cut it nowadays. At least Steel gives it more useful resists, and Ice typing gives it more offensive utility.

I see what you're trying to get at here, but Call of Duty is a game designed for adult audiences that lots of kids play once they hit their preteen years. Pokemon is a game designed for kids that kids that aren't yet on the brink of/being ravaged by puberty and the need to feel mature play.
