Why does Generation 5 look like bootleg Pokemon?
Running out of ideas
>>28111223
I know why
Because many of them had the same gimmicks as gen 1
>>28111223
too much new pokémon, not enough good designs
Because the sprites are really cheaply animated
great designs though
>>28111223
why are the genies the only pokemon that make me think "palette swap" when I look at them? I don't get this feeling from Plusle/Minun, Meowstic, Nidoran, Latias/Latios etc.
>>28111414
Because that's exactly what they are
Everyone hated them because of it
>>28111223
Not the right type of intricate design.
They tried to pull a gen 1 and made a gen digi
>>28111414
Probably because in most of those you mentioned the whole twins aspect, or at least a close relation, was part of the concept.
There was no reason for the genies to all be the same, and they even seemed to realise that once the Therian formes came out.
As much as I hate them for competitive reasons, I bet there would not be half the complaining about the genies if their Therian forms were what we got in the first place
>>28111223
Well it was intended to be a soft reboot.
>>28111431
I thought everyone hated them for how annoying they are in competitive play.

Gen 7 has shit designs at least gen 5 is memorable
>>28111497
They were first hated because of the looks
Once people started using them they were hated for that also
>>28111223
Because there's honestly nothing anyone could say which would change your opinion on this gen. it exists. they're pokemon. Move on.
>>28111520
What are you talking about, anon? The genies had the best and most creative designs of gen 5, I mean, weather gods floating on clouds fucking around with people from above?
>>28112088
>>28111505
Shit taste
>>28111223
They just took generation 1 Pokemon ideas and remade then into new Pokemon. Most of the Pokemon have basically identical stats to an equivalent gen 1 Pokemon with similar designs too. The least uncreative gen.
>>28112100
I doesn't fucking look like gen1 ffs stop this meme.
Gen7 looks like gen1.
>>28111223
Gen 7 looks bootleg
Because it looks too good to be Pokemon.
>>28111414
Same poses in the sprites.
>>28111254
Tell us.
can't wait for that faggot that posts the edited metacritic scores and calls everyone a Unovabortion to appear in the thread and cause massive shitposting like he always does
>>28111223
They wanted to push the whole "soft reboot" meme but effectively had no interesting design ideas so they made a bunch of gen 1 rip offs and called it a day.
>>28111223
You mean generation 2
Gen 2 was literally nothing but 1st gen rejects. There's a good reason that whenever we have a "most forgettable Pokemon" thread, the majority are from Gen 2.
>>28111223
Here's a less shitacular image OP.
>>28113709
That's a fallacy.
>>28111223
the basic hues
>>28114004
Optimised for toy manufacturers to use cheap dye in block patterns while remaining eye catching.
>>28112805
What's so uninteresting about the likes of Hydreigon, Volcarona, Braviary, Golurk, etc?
Why is it that whenever someone mentions good Gen V Pokemon we can't come to an agreement?
