Most fully evolved flying types look awful thanks to Sky Battle, especially Skarmory and Swellow.

I don't like Flareon 3D models either (especially the Pokédex 3D version), Flareon is sturdily built by Eeveelution standards, but the legs are way too stubby in the 3D models, almost like a dachshund.

I can see why they wouldn't want him to sit anymore, but what's wrong with standing on two legs? It added to his goofy character.

3D isn't the issue, they're just poorly modeled or posed. A few tweaks would fix them completely.

>>29618045
Pretty sure they figured it'd be awkward for it to move in and out of that pose every time it needed to do a move (same reason why Hitmontop isn't in its flipped position).

>>29618363
That's just it in the middle of the attack animation.

They need to fire the asshole that made that model. The proportions are so horrendously different that it makes a badass axe dragon look like undecided voter Ken Bone.

>>29618703
It's squatting less and it's at a different angle. The tail is maybe slightly thicker but it's hard to tell because the sprite version obscures more of it. It's really not that fucking different.

certainly not ruined, but he just looks so... awkward? The cannons seem way too thin, while the vents they come out of are just too wide. His head is a tad small too.

>>29618880
beat me to it dammit

>>29618308
This. The part that makes so many old sprites great is posing. Plenty of Pokemon look bad because the just stand/glide in a dopey neutral position now.

At least some newer mons like Incineroar feel more dynamic

These models are high poly and future proof, so we're stuck with them until at least gen 9.

Enjoy.

Blastoise was ruined for me with it's 3d model. The cannons are way too thin and the arms are too stubby.

>>29619003
I really hate how it lose the cuteness that it had in BW.

>>29619142
That's arguably the best flying animation though.
It makes sense on a physical level. A bird has to flap its wings VERY hard to hover in place. The more lateral speed they have, the less they need to flap to maintain lift. Have you ever noticed how much birds flap when they take off and land? This is the only hovering animation that looks like it's actually going through the correct motions to hover.

tl;dr I'm a bird expert, and you are objectively wrong.

>>29619142
It's literally exactly what I imagined it looking like in 3D. It's perfect.

>>29619603
No. You try flapping your arms that fast while keeping the rest of your body still. The animation has a sense of motion involving the entire body, which is more than just individual parts, but a whole system of muscles. And the way he opens his mouth is his heavy breathing due to the fact swinging his arms like that is a very aerobic exercise. The animator here did a very good job.

>>29619142
This is an improvement.

just why

in BW/2 it was always shown sitting down. This is gross

>>29619684
The worst thing about this is the gen 6/7 models themselves are fine. Great, even. They just intentionally decided to put a lot of them in the blandest, least energetic poses possible.

>>29619116
because that require GF to make another model to use outside sky battles and that would mean effort

>>29619780
Good news is that they can just reanimate them if they ever get off their asses, I hoped for some newly animated poses for gen 7 but guess not.

Fixing badly proportioned models though is harder.

Something about it just looks so shit compared to its artwork. It looks scrawny and its leaf mane and facial scruff look awful.

I guess it technically doesn't work with the thread since it never had a sprite to "translate" over to 3D, but still.

>>29618261
he's actually trying is why. Would be dissapointed if my Pokémon sat on its ass in battle irl

>>29619808
At the very least it seems the gen 7 mons have some more movements like Lycanrocs "Come at me" idle animation and Incineroar.

I already said that I can understand why he isn't sitting any more. But why not stand on two legs, like his reference material does?

Still, this thread alone shows how little that matters compared to some other mons...

>It's really not that fucking different
Look at its neck. Look at its arm. Look at the green part between its legs.

The proportions are different

>>29619700

I loved Donkarasu but then retarded american culture with their pathetic memes ruined it. 3D just made a finishing move to making it completely useless.

Don looks amazing as a really fat crow in a hat. 3D view with it flying makes it smaller and less imressive.
