Has fanart ever changed your view on a particular pokemon? Post it here if it did for you.
>>29276229
Please don't tell me that particular pokemon is Armaldo, cause that shit looks nothing like it, you are just lying to yourself.
>>29276229
No, because I don't really care for a Pokemon's design that much. But pic related made me use an Absol, which led to me liking it, so I guess it counts?
>>29276229
Gastrodon is not that big. It should go up about dawns legs.
>>29276319
>It should go up about dawns legs.
>>29276319
It should up Dawns legs
If I like em I like em if I dont I dont
Fanart usually doesn't change my opinion on something unless im iffy on it in the first place
>>29276319
>He doesn't understand perspective
>>29276229
The pokemon adventures art usually seals the deal for me, it's just so much better.
Yup
>>29276229
>>29276280
How is it nothing like it?
>>29278694
The fan art looks thin and stylish, your picture looks fat.
This.
>>29276280
Get checked for cataracts.
>>29278795
>implying pokemon don't very in sizes and weight
I want to thank whoever made this. Tortunator is now my favorite Alola mon AND my third favorite mon ever.
Now I'll try to find a comic that made me like Rowlet (even more, I mean; I already liked it because owls are awesome).
>>29278795
So being slightly stylized, in a way that's reasonably possible, is considered "nothing like it"?
>>29279470
Here it is.
>>29279446
If a Pokemon has an exoskeleton, they're not going to "be fat."
Alolan Raticate
I like this thread. Keep em coming anons.
>>29279522
Here is a fat beetle, you know, an organism with an exoskeleton
It sounds like you're just trying to force everyone to see the same way you do asshole
>>29276319
Pokemon sizes vary in all of the official media including the games.
Ash had a midget Noctowl in the anime and in the recent game generation Totem Pokemon have introduced powerful giants.
>>29279470
I'm really salty it's going to be a sun exclusive mon
I already paid for moon version
>>29279501
Yes, cause it really change the original design, to please your eyes. just look at those gorgeous feather things.
yes
specially this 2
>>29279697
I really like him now
Was indifferent to him at first but now I really like him.
>>29279580
Same.
>>29276229
>>29279732
Me too, it's fanart that did it for me. Making my starter decision really hard
>>29279522
Do you know how exoskeletons even work?
There's this thing called molting, look it up.
>>29279522
Obesity exists in various invertebrates you moron
>>29279732
His model made me feel better about him. It looks pretty good
>>29276229
Yes it did. For Gardevoir, years and years ago. And it was a slippery slope into further degeneracy. I have no regrets.
>>29280050
He's a big guy
I don't know why, but if I don't like a pokemno but then I see a picture of one getting beat up I stop disliking it as much. This picture made me feel like it's okay to like Lucario. I also had a pic of Braixen getting beat up too, and that made me feel like it's okay to like Braixen for some reason. I don't know what happened to it, though.
this made me like the whole family, going to have to train one now
>>29279732
If only he was standing like that
>>29280728
Better quality
>>29276229
people draw blaziken to look really cool, so I choose torchic as my omega ruby starter and then quickly realize the 3-D model for him looks absolutely demented. I even played the original saphire and it didn't look so bad.
>>29279721
Samex I like Bastiodon now
>>29280764
What is the inspiration for this pose? I know I've seen it before.
This desu
>>29276229
JUST LOOK AT HOW CUTE IT IS
>>29279780
>>29279732
>>29280113
>>29280764
Luchalitten is pretty great, actually. I hated this design because the concept art looked like shit, but now he's cool. Really cool.
>>29279446
Why was ash's charizard a manlet even by rice bigger standards?
>>29276386
It seems like you don't. Gastrodon and Dawn are standing next to each other.
>>29279580
That's a pretty cute pic
>>29280941
Its always the hands that make me not like it. It looks fine otherwise but I cant get over those giant ass hands.
>>29279732
>>29280941
These drawings are good ( especially the latter, good lines and shading ), but I still won't use it in game. It just doesn't look like a pokemon to me somehow, I can't explain it. It looks more like a looney tune, if that makes any sense.
On topic, I have way too fucking many fanart of pokemon, so just going through my unorganized transition folder, I found this random one from Delphox. I really like the design but for some reason in X&Y it really didn't click for me and I ignored it somewhat, fanart does it justice. It's the more dynamic poses and better colours that the 3D model lacks.
>>29281224
Yeah, I'd prefer some more cat-like paws, but it's still not the worst it could've been.
>>29281409
I won't either (not the first playthrough at least), I'm going with the owl, but I unironically like all of them.
>>29281409
>no mismagius
>>29281746
Forgot picture.
>>29281746
>I unironically like all of them.
This. I'm pretty sure I'm on the tiny minority that likes 90% of the dex and super hyped after it got leaked. Luchalitten is amazing too, second favourite starter after popplio, only because I like the latter's whole line more than litten's
A little bit.
>>29281880
I love most of the dex too, Anon. I'm really excited for this gen.
>>29278761
I feel the same, anon. This one completely changed my mind about Avalugg.
>>29281880
/vp/ is just full of whiny contrarians, majority of people i see on any other site likes what we've seen for the most part
This board is just packed with narcissists who think if they don't like something then nobody else possibly could
>>29281880
I meant the starters, anon. I don't really think all of the dex is that great, but there's still a fair share of amazing ones. Lycanroc, Vikavolt, the shroom one, Salandit, Tortunator, the toucan, Kommo-o...Most of the Alolan forms are bad, though.
>>29280050
That's pregnant, not fat.
>>29282347
>I meant the starters, anon.
I was aware, I dont think I expresed myself though, I just meant I agreed all the starters are good, and that on top of that I love most of the gen's dex.
Have a cute poppmaid for the confusion
I seriously can't help but love this thing. What's the matter with me?
>>29282461
Oh, okay. Thanks.
Back to the topic of the thread, I also started liking the autism kitty because of the fan art. Not this one in particular, just all of it that portraits it as cute and derpyand not "le meme psycho killer cat XD".
>>29280500
For (you)
>>29276229
Not really in a fanart, but Pokken made me like Charizard. It always looked like it was too fat to move properly, and I disliked that. But seeing it jump around normally in Pokken made me like it.
>>29282412
They're the same thing, don't let feminism tell you otherwise.
Not fanart, but how they animated Probopass in Generations made me really like him.
https://youtu.be/FHxZpk_hvJA
It appears at 1:56.
>>29282066
Who shrank that shiny Charizard
That is not my fetish
>>29282755
2/10 for making me respond
>>29276305
I used to see Absol as an edgelord's dream Pokemon, but all that fanart that made it look cute got to me
>>29283490
I honestly can't tell if you're joking or not.
>>29283490
>shiny Charizard
I thought it was a baby Aerodactyl
>>29280058
This image right here is what made me love Luchalitten
boku no hero academia was a great watch.
>>29282412
Explain how males can get 'pregnant' then you fuckwit
Like most, I did not enjoy this monsters design very much.
I do like the IG, though. And as simple as it is, this just puts it in a new light for me.Heresy not-withstanding
Which is funny, because it isn't even really fanart.
>>29283769
It is an Aerodactyl.
>>29282978
Seeing them in motion always helps
>>29280058
This pic is great.
>>29283955
Same here.
>>29279649
Fuck, turtonator is sun exclusive?
At least pchex exists.
>>29279732
>I cum flames
>>29278446
LOL the day that happens il go train 6 drudigons........
it made me like goodrasorry
>>29280559
There's a Lucario in that picture?
>>29282472
It's called a sense of humour, you'll have to have it surgically removed if you want to stay here.
>>29282472
You saw a gag pokémon and had fun with the joke instead of sperging out on the internet about a wasted slot.
>>29282550
Have a Spinny Espurr
>>29285093
tipping fedora memes aside I love this picture
>>29286103
Lopunny is kicking it in the crotch, yes. Have you considered getting glasses?
>>29285996
Actually makes me hate all three that much more.
>>29278931
How did you NOT like Metagross before this?
>>29286307
>hating on quagsire or dedenne
>>29280559
>Vallied opinions
>Changed perspectives
Furries need not apply
>>29276229
This reminds me of a comic where Hilbert was battling Dawn. Hilbert had Zekrom and Dawn had Giratina. Anyone have that comic?
This is what sold me on Froakie, way back in the day when it was just released and everyone seemed to hate it.
Ironically as everyone got on the Froakie train because of Greninja, I left because of it. .
>>29286411
>liking either
One is derpy and obnoxious as heck. It's also featured on many stall teams.
The other is absurdly obnoxious in the anime and very forgettable as a Pikachu clone.
>>29276607
Woah, I like this Pokemon now. Wtf.
>>29286383
This
>>29276607
I like it too, but it was this image that won me over
>>29280969
It's young maybe?
Disliked Chesnaught for so long, until i saw this and now i respect it and even like it
>>29279446
To be fair those two charizards have the same proportions, one is just bigger/taller than the other.
>>29280113
This, though conversely I hate Poppmaid even more now.
>>29284231
If Samurott actually had his blades out at all times, or if his animations used them more, he'd be a seriously cool Pokémon. But as it is, he's a seriously lame one instead.
>>29284064
Pregnant female Emp. Scorpions get bloated and show a white membrane over the torso section. That's just a pregnant female scorpion.
>>29284231
Samurott fanart make me hate it even more, it looks so fucking dumb standing up like that.
>>29279470
This won me Turtonator
I used to hate the hell out of this thing. Now it's one of my most favorite normal types.
>>29286679
Man is this a blast from the past. Now post the others, I remember there were more.
>>29286723
this is pretty cool
not a big fan of garde, but if i had one that used regular moves all flashy and wizard-like, i'd move em to my team in a heartbeat.
>>29277097
this is so cringy i suddenly hate it
>>29286175
I love Espurr, it has both a creepy and cute look to it. Sorta the same with the new Marshadow. I got good hopes for this gen, unlike some others on the board.
Have a Lovecraftian Edgelord from the drawthread
>>29280058
PLUS
ULTRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>29286598
nigga, i've had that since the drawthread it came out of. excellent taste.
>nobody posts this
>>29286598
I dislike it till I realize the white hair was part of its chest and not a long beard, and that the white part on his head isn't bald but it's part of its shell armor
I've always wanted another owl Pokemon, and Rowlet was a godsend.
My mind was already set about it, but then Robinhoot was leaked and I never knew I could love a design so fucking much. Dartrix is amazing too, such a cute little shit.
I can't wait to see it make an appearance in the anime, what with all the higher quality animation and the good fights now.
>>29286947
Its a bit rude to not like pachirisu to begin with, but I guess that did make it a million times better in the eyes of 90% of competitive players, not to mention make it overall relevant again
>>29276607
nope still ugly
>pic related made me like it
>also: buo buo bua tshh
>>29286247
That artist has no idea how insects work.
>>29280058
This pic is why I'm going with Luchalitten for first playthrough. I hope that the first time you actually encounter the fight against Absorption, it's far enough into the game for you to have the final evolution.
I still don't like Luchalitten, but I really like this picture.
>>29276229
I love this artist.
>>29280764
oh fuck. I love Songoku Luchalitten now thanks to you.
>>29286163

I never look at the early route Pokemon, but now I understand how cute this little one is
>>29279649
You got a source for that?
>>29278931
I was about to post this one too
>>29282066
this is so fucking cute but also kinda sad
i already liked avalugg a lot but this picture made me like it even more
>>29276607
Beautiful
>>29290058
wtf I love Braixen now
>>29279649
Just go to the store and ask them to change your preorder
>>29276229
This made me appreciate deoxys more than just a pissed off alien.
>>29286293
Nope, still don't see it.
>>29286487
these look like denjuu, especially chesnaught
I didn't really care for its mega before I saw this
>>29279675
This is advanced autism.
>>29295059
Nah just Graphic Design.
>>29279675
Yeah. I don't know why the artist made them feathers when they are actually eyes.
Completely changed my opinion on Mega Steelix's design.
pic related made me like Luchalitten. There's also a really cool comic of Absorption vs. Luchalitten out there.
I originally just thought Midnight Lycan was kinda ugly and creepy looking, but a lot of the fanart makes it look so adorable, I love moon doggo now
>>29295467
>>29295469
The funny thing is I'd probably like both of these designs more if not for their stupid, overly big cartoony front paws. They just look so out of place.
>>29281880
I really like the dex but I wish there were more pokemon
All of the images from conquest made me suddenly start liking pokemon I hated. Pic unrelated, sun wukong mon is cool
>>29281409
Pokken sold me on braixen and you just sold me on delphox. Time to evolve my fennekin
>>29286679
Up to dewott the line was really cool
>>29287049
I keep getting owls as results during spirit animal tests and recently got a brown owl as a patronus. i've always loved noctowl but Rowlet is indeed a godsend
>>29296677
I agree the paws look too big in-game, which is part of why the fanart helped me sorta picture it in a way I like better, if that makes sense
Not as much as fanart, but watching it move.
>>29280058
TORAAAAA
>>29291517
why isnt castform in rain form?
>>29297750
His mouth and headband still bother me.
I get he's supposed to look like a mascot, but it just seems like an awkward design to me.
Never liked pic related, but good fan drawings have sorta changed my opinion
>>29297804
That is true, but you have to admit it looks really nice seeing it pummel trees
>>29286487
What are you talking about? Froakie was the most popular starter when X and Y were first revealed.
>>29297854
I like the 'retard strength' aspect of it. Just not the actual design.
>>29297871
It was actually Fennekin. Froakie started to get popular when the mid stages were revealed
>>29286947
I see this image semi often and I love it but is there in-game reasoning or context to the image? Can someone explain it to me?
I admit a lot of Gen 5 mons look better without the weird moving sprites.
>>29281000
Clearly a Totem Gastrodon.

Holy shit. How did I go this whole thread without posting fanart of Brionne? I HATED that thing before fanart started popping up, and now I adore the fuck out of it.
This one was the original one that started to turn me into a Brionne fan. Fucking adorable.

I thought Popplio was the worst starter and one of the ugliest designs of all time until I saw this picture. This picture made me do a total 180 and now I think it's adorable. Too bad I still absolutely hate Brionne and Poppmaid.
Flareon is probably still my least favorite eeveelution, but I can't resist the art for it.

Agreed, I thought it was going to be interpreted as being an edgy wolf by most people, but seeing it as a silly doggo made me love itenough to change my pre-order to moon
>>29280058
Yeah, this is what turned luchalitten from "meh" to "ok, I'll give you a shot"
>>29280058

i always loved garbodor but... this pic made my heart grow three sizes
>>29276229
This made me think of Garbodor as something other than garbage. I've never hated a Pokemon based on their design ever since.
>>29304923
you monster...
why would you do this to me?
>>29296677
This. looks like something out of Goof Troop. The biggest thing from keeping me from liking it.

I know, but that just goes to show how well it was able to tank it. I dont know if that Salamence had a Life Orb, was Scarfed, or what. Either way that wasn't KOing without a crit
