You mean that time they were faithful to the Sugimori art and not the sprite?

Yeah I remember.

Why the fuck did he have a Rhydon?

>>28250982
>>28250989

I didn't say it was a good design.

Just that the anime didn't really ruin him. The design in question was already a thing.

So Pikachu could attack the horn.

>>28250905
>>28250937
Yeah, that was a production clusterfuck.

Moustache-full bald Blaine is best Blaine. Not this John Lithgow wannabe shit.

>>28251217
Couldn't they save that for the Viridian City gym?

The fire gym having a pokemon of a completely different type triggers me way more than "aim for the horn"

>>28251273
Viridian had Kingler and Machamp

Blaine?

>>28251080
Because there were no good fire types in gen 1

>>28253480
You must be confusing gen 1 with gen 4.

Remember that time the anime ruined all of the Johto gym leaders by making them boring and generic.

I'm not even a fan of hers but fuck, I pity those who are.

Or Whitney being depicted as an airhead klutz.

>>28253521
are you implying gen 4 had fire types?

>>28253853
i can't remember at all, it's been years since I saw johto and have no desire to rewatch. what was she like?

>>28251266
Kek just watched the episode where he appears on Dexter last night

>>28253924
I don't give hit about the Goldenrod cunt, so... She's mostly a cunt and a crybaby.

>>28253952
You remember game Jasmine being all sweet, shy, not really self-confident and soft spoken (though kinda passive-aggressive but that just my opinion) ? In the anime, she's over-confident and kind of a "stronk grrl", if I remember well.

He has the same face and proportions in each incarnation, the only different thing is his fashion sense.

Whitney is supposed to be an airhead, she's just an airhead with a Kansai girl's well meaning heart.

>>28254744
Don't get me wrong, anime Jasmine's personality is cringy as fuck but the current animation style or as current as this appearance was 7 years ago did wonders for her.

Playing the original games, who else thought Blaine looked/was an alien because of how his glasses and hair blurred together to make him look like one of those little green men aliens with big eyes?

>>28251626
Tell me about Blaine! Why does he wear the wig?

>>28253480
He had a Ninetales, the OP Magmar and the other one could have been a Rapidash, an Arcanine or any of their pre-evolutions.

>>28255771
The same reason he wears a fake moustache. When you work with fire, you're prone to accidents.

Special did this right though, mixed two designs, making moustache guy the official one and hairy one the incognito mode.

When I was younger, I thought Blaine was Copycat's Grandpa.

>>28250982

Blaine didn't get his bald with mustache artwork until long after that episode had been created, dipshit.

>>28251080
Back then, just because a gym leader "specialized" in a certain type, didn't mean that they only used said type when battling.

>>28254744
I think they were going for an "Iron-willed" personality. I really do wish they were at least consistent with the games.

>>28256776
Yeah, look at Blue in G/S. He doesn't even have a defined typing.

>>28251080
>Fire/Lava Themed Gym.
>Lava is molten rock.
>Rhydon is a Ground/Rock Type.

>>28256848
To be fair that's because they wanted to give him his R/B champion team, minus his starter.

>>28256892
>Ditched his starter.
>Blue never learned to treat his Pokemon with trust and love.
>This is why he lost, and continued to lose.

>>28253938
It had:

>Fire Starter
>Cross-gen evolution
>Legendary (Gen III is the only gen that doesn't have a fire legendary/mythical if you don't count Primal Groudon)

How can they fuck it up that bad?

>>28256933
Red probably stole his starter then ran away to hide in the mountains

>implying she's not salty
Maybe she's not a retard, but she's a huge cunt. I don't give a shit about Johto female Gym leaders, so she can be whatever the writers want, for all I care.

>>28255719
I'll be honest, I kinda like anime Whitney's personnality, even though the running gag of her always getting lost even in her own city can be pretty boring.

As for Jasmine, you're right, the animation in DP seasons was good for her.

>>28256828
Soemtimes it's for the best (Elesa, though some might not agree), sometimes it's worse (Skyla, a girl I already don't like very much in the games, was given a shitty personnality in that BW turd, though it can also be said for PokéSpe)

>>28257216
They change everyone's personality in the anime.

The only Kanto ones that remained the same were Surge, Koga and Blaine.

>>28255764
count me in.

I find the fuchsia gym even more weird, Koga was the only one who actually used poison type mons.
