Here's a fun thread where we make pictures sharing our opinions of which gen makes a certain pokemon look the best and why. We could get a lot of OC this way.
Here's the example/template to use. Just open up Paint, copy and paste the pokemon image from each Gen it appears in from the Serebii pokedex and stretch the image of the pokemon to be big enough before you write under it. Then write underneath each picture of the pokemon from each gen why it doesn't compare to the gen you think it looks the best in or/and also write positive qualities about it even though it isn't your favorite one. And make sure to really emphasize why you think this certain gen gives the best looking version of that pokemon.
I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of opinions pop up. Have fun.

Gen 1 Tentacruel sprite will always be the Tentacoolest.

Remember those Gold and Silver sprite comparison memes from like 2012 or something? This reminds me of those. Gonna post some when I get back home

>gen 1: The pose is debatably better than all the others but it less alive than gen 4.
>Pose is tentacruel with crossed armstentacles, and one of the tentacles seems to be pointing at you.
Also
>gen 5: Pose is comparable in quality to gen 4.
>gen 5 pose is mirroed gen 4 pose with the tentacles being different color and eyes looking at the front

Of course, yes, it looks like it can be done with quite a few GS sprites, but Blastoise was always the one that'd get posted.

literally fuck off with your arbitrary perceived "badassery"--this image has blastoise with its back turned and the caption is "it's a badass" but with fearow doing the same thing and it's "flying away cowardly" instead

>Here's a fun thread where we shit on the models for the 47 millionth time
If you're talking about shit like personality not including the idle and move animations is immediately putting the models at a disadvantage since they're intended to be viewed in motion. The sprites are a snapshot in time, meant to capture everything about the Pokemon in one image, and tend to be mid-attack anyway. The models are meant to be living, breathing creatures.
>>30617374
Looking solely at Gen VI's idle animations is the wrong way to do this. No previous generation had attacking animations, so most Pokemon were put in a dynamic pose rather than a passive one.
guys I need Gold/Silver to come out on the virtual console
someone hack into nintendo and replace all employee schedules with Gold/Silver ports please
>>30619778
its so outrageous because the games are so shit everyone would jump out of the windows and wont even make it into the news because japs have a suicide forest because everyone there is a repressed cunt fuck you nintendo i hacked your shit
>>30619835
What's wrong with the original Gold/Silver? :(
>>30619957
introduced the fuck awful day and night cycle
>>30619217
0/10
>>30619975
Day and night times are good, it means you got to stay up under the covers with your GBC to catch a Spinarak
>>30620034
It also meant that you have to wait to do so instead of, you know, just catching it.
>>30620034
>not having a Game Boy light
>attempting to play with the light coming through the window from a street lamp
Alolasomes will never know this suffering
>>30620073
>not building a literal pillowfort to contain the light from a big ass flashlight and thinking you were sneaky
>>30620047
But it adds fun, why would you want everything to be so easily gained? It added feeling and fun to the game to have to stay up and catch pokemon who only came out at night (night time started at like 6pm anyway so it's not the hardest thing in the world)
also certain trainers would only battle at night, Lapras would only appear on Fridays
life was great
>>30620073
>>30620093
Me and my sister had GB lights but we'd sometimes forget them when we went out so we'd have to catch glimpses of the game from lights on the motorway as our parents drove us back home from whatever the heck we'd been doing
>>30620102
>why would you want everything to be so easily gained?
The RNG already covers that area having an arbitrary wait time serves no purpose when it comes to difficulty, challenge, ease whatever you want to call it.
It just means you have to sit there for a while.
>>30618839
H-Hajime??
>>30620164
It just adds more depth and flavour to the world, while you may not enjoy it, plenty of players do
It's a world that you play in, not just a game designed for you to complete your pokedex in 10 minutes
Why not complain about how extremely hard it is to get gen 1 pokemon across?
>>30619975
>he dislikes the day and night cycle
Kill yourself my man
>>30620203
>plenty of players do
Which is why they've all but done away with things like that, right?
>>30620275
...did you by any chance see the names of the new games?
>>30620203
Pokemon first and foremost is a game about adventuring and finding pokemon. Not waiting on the time to change to get said pokemon.
>not just a game designed for you to complete your pokedex in 10 minutes
Keep this in your head for a minute.
Say someone has caught all of the day mon and has to wait until the night. What do you think they're going to do until then?
Either way you're going to be spending 10 minutes to finish the dex the difference being you can do it without a break.
>>30620319
Did you by chance 'play' the new games?
The Day and Night is superficial.
>>30620319
Dude, the last time we had a game that used day and night with any meaning was gen 4.
Then GF went overboard in HGSS with shit like the safari zone and realised people hated waiting.
>>30620350
>STILL have to wait to catch spinarak
>>30620541
>not going to the other world
This thread rules, thank you anon.
>>30619701
Except a lot of the new models for SM are a lot more lively and energetic while XYORAS models were ported over and look just as plain as before
I like the Gen 6 look.
Seems like a weird glare more than anything. Like he knows he's above you.
>>30620125
Thisss
>>30617374
Gen 2 Tentacruel is the one looking down on you since the enemy pokémon is always located on the top right corner of the screen.
Idiot.

I already knew this whole series was bait but you're taking it to whole new levels with this one.

OHHHHH MAN
Crystal was the first game I owned and I just got a huge nostalgia blast and now I'm tearing up. I'm gonna go emulate Crystal now.
>>30621900

>>30621900
I didn't make these. They're just some silly shit anons used to make here back in like 2012. None of it is meant to be taken seriously. Of course they're stupid.
>>30622028
Yeah, I was pretty sure I have/had that somewhere, but I didn't see it.
Also thought I had a gif of the Blastoises fucking
