We're all in agreement that the "Pokemon designs have gotten worse over time" meme is the biggest lie ever spread in video game history, right?

Of course it is. You can easily balance out the worst and best designs between every gen.

The designs are just becoming more hit or miss, IMO.

Like there's a lot more designs I REALLY like but also a lot more I REALLY hate. Whereas I used to just feel pretty neutral about most designs.

Like mimikyu, and vikavolt are pretty good but the night version of the dog pokemon and the sword UB are pretty fucking terrible.

No, the "new designs are in all ways as good as the original" is a meme.

Literally all the moves that the Pokemon Company did this year were aimed at the first generation and they caught on. Pokemon GO? Only the first generation, it drew back a ton of old fans and pulled huge amounts of new ones with great designs. Sun&Moon panders with Alolan forms - yeah, some are completely butchered, but some are pretty respectful of the old style.

Hell even Pokemon TCG released XY Evolutions, a set containing only the first 150 in the original frame and artstyle - that shit was one of the only sets to be bought out and price-rigged by shops, when usually they sell below MSRP.

Face it, fans of inflated "so cute XD" balloons - you're a minority that was heading into the cesspool with the Pokemon franchise as a whole.

why does dragonite look like it was made specifically for furry vore fetishists
>>
Let me set the record straight here.

Gen 1, the beginning of pokemon and some of the most iconic designs but a couple dumb ass designs (Mr. Mime and Jynx I'm looking at you)

Gen 2, about the same as gen 1, baby pokemon were a mistake, but dark types are all pretty dope and there really were no godawful designs

Gen 3, Probably the high point of pokemon designs, all 3 starters are dope, gardevoir porn starts being created, pokemon get abilities that actually differentiate pokemon of the same types from eachother

Gen 4, everything falls apart, starting with bidoof, then there's the new trade evolutions of magmar, electabuzz, magneton, and rhydon. Eventually it reaches a critical mass of shit culminating in Lucario x Gallade porn and even disgusting Ralts porn.

Gen 5, apparently a nuke went off and morphed all the good designs into shit and brought dozens of species of inanimate objects to life. Shit like Klinklang, Vanilluxe, and LITERALLY A BAG OF GARBAGE come to life as pokemon.

Gen 6. Nintendo realizes that they fucked up royally with the last gen, they need a new gimmick, and mega forms are introduced and look retarded without exception. If that wasn't enough they had the great idea to add the brand new faggot I mean fairy type of pokemon. However, talonflame IS dope as fuck.

Gen 7. We are in paradise, there are so many god tier pokemon designs this gen, and even legendaries don't all look terrible. We've got cute pokemon like stufful, we've got cool pokemon like Lycanroc, hell gamefreak even said "let's make a gay fish with lips" and the design turned out good. Not to mention we've got porn of Salazzle, and the human pokegirls are hot too. Basically pokemon is better than it's ever been.

Agree with all of these except for gen 5. It had a lot of good to balance out the bad.
>>
Some wise man called Willy Shakesman once said: "There is art from adversity". And this shows in video games too often. In Gen 1 they had like 20x20 pixel space with only black and white and gray to express a character so they made sure the designs were sharp, simple and functional. Now that they have two million colors to use everything sucks.

I do have to say that the Alola legendaries are a lot better (well other than Necrozma)

Are you seriously going to get the game because of one design you liked?

The game has a shit frame rate and practically no post game content. There's also a ton of cutscenes in the game for whatever reason. Like 40% of the story mode is cutscenes. The online is also shit. The festival plaza is a joke.

It's a step up from X/Y, but it's nothing spectacular.

I know they've changed and the style of some pokemon is considerably different from what we had.

But I don't really think that's a bad thing to get Pokemon that are different from what we've had before because those Pokemon are still set in stone (except pikachu), even if you hate the alola formes the old formes are still there.


Pokemon at it's core has always been
>go on an adventure with silly little cartoon animals
>catch more cartoon animals
>beat up other cartoon animals with your cartoon animals
So it's to be expected that gamefreak would be more 'out there' and try different things.

Looking at it as a franchise you grew up with and saying
>these new imaginary creatures they're coming up with are so stupid
>look at this one, he looks nothing like the ones I remember
>what's next, A SHOE POKEMON! lol

When back during gen 1 south park was making fun of how absurd pokemon was already by pointing out that a pokemon could be anything.

Listen fuckers, there's definitely been bad designs since the start and things like straight up animals and animated objects... but you absolutely have to admit that there's always ones that look better than others.

Like, objectmons... what looks cooler? Clinklang or Golurk?
Yeah, I thought so.

What looks cooler? Magneton or Electrode?
Yup.

What looks cooler? Klefki or Aegislash?
See?

You have to be a fucking retard if you think that certain pokemon look better than others.

So now let's move on to "overdesigned". Well? What's more "overdesigned"? Jynx or Hitmonlee? Emboar or Nienshao? Talonflame or Noivern?

You get what I'm saying.

No go look at some lists of all pokemon new in each generation and tell me... do you not notice some pretty clear concentrations of shitty looking mons? YOU KNOW LIKE SOMEWHERE CALLED GEN V?

In the same way Scorpion is a pallet swap, how many people masturbated to the old Meowth in all it's years of existance? Quintuple that for Alola Meowth.
Also how can you even make that judgement when you love alola vulpix? It's a white vulpix with a haircut.

Is it bad I like this thing more than the day version? I got Sun because I liked almost all the version exclusives over Moons, but I just find this edgy awoo more entertaining. I kind of wish its arms were more a bit more beefed up though, those twigs are bad

It's not a 'lie', it's just nostalgia goggles.

I'd say that designs themselves have stayed pretty much the same when it comes to the balance of quality, although I do prefer the old art style.

I'd argue Midnight is the less edgy of the two, honestly. It's a slobbering, rocks-for-brains retard werewolf that crushes bones by headbutting people with its literally edgy hair.
Meanwhile Midday is a majestic wolf with a permanent brooding look on its face. That's way edgier.
>>
>>30438815
YW has trash designs...
>>
I think the meme is real. Sure not every design is worse, but you can use the starters as a baseline. Im not even saying the new ones are bad or anything, but there is an obvious stylistic shift in the last 3 gens. Maybe those who dont like newer designs prefer the old style, and vice versa. I love gen 1 designs, and I stand by them being the best, of course I like Lycanroc, but come one you cant sit there and say something like Bewear is good. I prefer teddiursa for example

Does Staraptor come before or after bidoof? I think that's a good fall-off point. It's such an excellent showcase of what I dislike about most of DP's pokemon. It'd be a passable, decent looking bird if they didn't give it that stupid red tipped comb that comes out of nowhere and even looks like it was slapped onto the drawing last minute. It's like they just drew a pokemon like they would of for an earlier game and just slapped random features and highlights on it because they could.

Honestly I thought the comb was supposed to be a second beak for the longest time

Those look better and more original than half of Pokemon desu. They are based after actual Japanese myths that's why a lot of them look bizarre but if you actually look what they are based on their designs make perfect sense

gen 1: Mostly good but some very dull stuff and weird duds like lickitung

gen 2: Very obviously the stuff they thought was too lame even next to the duds like lickitung mixed in with some cool new stuff like xatu and tyranitar. Inoffensive even at its worst

gen 3: mostly good but there's a disproportionate amount of duo pokemon that are very nearly the exact same thing twice clogging up the pokedex for some reason (plusle/minun, volbeat/illumise, latias/latios). More pointless than outright bad

gen 4: This is where pokemon design starts to get really bad. Many of the better pokemon this gen are just updates of older ones like dusknoir and gliscor laced with the rare standalone gem like rotom or toxicroak. Lots of really pointless legendaries, special shout out to phione

gen 5: Largely an improvement but there's still obvious cracks like the copypaste monkeys, vanillish and mlp.

gen 6: About as paint by numbers as pokemon can get. With very few exceptions the stuff that isn't incredibly dull is monstrously awful or an obvious gimmick and isn't helped by its tiny size. By the time you start getting to the good pokemon you're already at the end of the dex.

gen 7: Probably the best batch overall. The final stage starters and some regional forms are pretty repulsive and there's a few lickitung-esque duds in stuff like bewear but there's dozens of A++ monsters thrown into the mix so it balances out and rarely feels its lenght

Overall I'd say its fair to say pokemon have gotten worse over the years though. The worst gen 5 mons are a hell of a lot worse than the worst gen 2 mons for instance

What's your problem with Lickitung, man?

It's not the best design, but at least it's not Jynx or Mr. Mime.
>>
>>30439943
I don't straight up dislike it but It's not really very appealing one way or the other. It's just a fat blobby lizard with its tongue sticking out.

For reference's sake though, jynx and mr. mime were the other big things I was thinking about when I cited gen 1 duds.
