How come a lot of these new pokemon look better in-game than

>>28681912
Because they are designed with 3D in mind

It was designed with 3d in mind. This is the opposite problem to Haxorus' doofy model in XY.

>>28681912
The new artist is shit.

Lycanroc looks better in his official artwork.

>>28681912
Because you're viewing it in the digital world, so you're seeing its true form and not an artists interpretation

>>28681929
Its still sugimori who draws the final official artwork.
I think the only time this wasn't the case was for bw2 and that was only really for the nwe characters

the eyes look stupid tho

>>28681912
It looks like 4 sharpened turds are growing out of it's neck like tumors and it's autistically howling in pain.

>>28681941
Oh wow how amazing,
And interesting too;
But in this digital world,
What do we do? (What do we do?)

GF is great with animations when they put forth an effort. Now if only the same could be done for some of those flying pokemon...

>>28681912
Because this is the first gen that they didn't have to focus a lot of their attention on coverting 600+ sprites into 3D models. The Gen VI Pokemon felt like afterthoughts in their own game.

They have a lot more experience under their belts now, and now when they design a Pokemon they know it's being designed to be in 3D. The official art doesn't matter like it used to, because the official art was basically just a better-looking sprite.

>>28681952
Never, Sugimori would never draw artworks like from Mudsdale or Popplio.

>>28681952

That's wrong. Ohmori did art. Magearna is the exception. Probably the starters too.

i'm not going to do this anymore

Wtf I love midnight lycanroc now

>>28681952
Sugi has done art for Magearna, Zygardes, and Alola forms. Everything else is the new guy.

I really fucking hope the final evolution starters look better in 3D because I swear to god, even after all the time I had to get used to them and all the fan art I've seen of them, I still feel like throwing them into a fucking trash can while pretending they don't even exist while I hopefully play through the game and enjoy it for what it is.

Jesus, I don't think I've ever felt like this regarding any trio.

>>28683465
I feel the same way but I think they most likely will look better in game, they might even look better when there's some finalized official artwork for them (maybe)

>>28683465
I always see people complaining about the starters but what did you actually want them to turn into? That they'd just get bigger?

Unlike older Pokemon, these are designed from the start to move in a 3D space. Many of them have non-obvious features (Bruxish's lure, Drampa's claws) that take advantage of not needing to look good in a still (or even looping) sprite.

Also, Ohmori is not a great artist and kind sucks at proportions/prspecctive. I'd honestly prefer if they just released posed HQ versions of the in-game models rather than 2D art next gen if it's going to be stuff like pic related.

With the cat, I'd honestly take anything over the wrestler theme. Just gets bigger, turns into something ridiculous, you name it.

If you google image search "litten evolution" you'll find a ton of fakemon that just look like larger tigers or sabertooth or the like. Stuff with Luxray-like proportions. Honestly would've preferred that.

Yes please. Justgetsbigger is much better for the cat than Eggman on steroids.

It's Ohmura, not Ohmori who is doing art.

But yes, that's why it's shit.

Alola Sandslash looks like shit in his model compared to his art

Exactly. Another example is pic-related. It makes Oricorio Sensu look so much more majestic

The new art simply isnt good.

>>28681912
i wish they put more emotion into lycanroc's midday form sprite like they did with its midnight form. i'm still choosing sun either way but midnight form is way more expressive while midday form is just standing there. i guess there's not a lot you can do with quadrupled pokemon though.

Even Bewear manages to look better when it's not a flat paper cutout.

>>28682380
It's "What CAN we do" you piece of shit

>>28685161
The mascot costume design is much more apparent.

The problem is Ohmura's flat looking art.
