Why did they change its design so much? In RB he was more toadlike

Yellow was made to follow the anime design.

They were going with more artsy and cartoony sprites in Yellow.

Back sprites didn't change in Blue and Yellow from Red and Green since they had memory limitations for those as Tajiri said once back in the day.

so its actual design was more monster like and they changed it forever because of the anime...that´s kinda bad.

I kinda like this venusaur more.

>anime designs

No you retards, Yellow and the anime are just a more accurate representation of Sugimori's original artworks. the Red and Blue sprites are the inaccurate ones.

That's from FireRed and LeafGreen.

>>32660716
and it still looks different than the rb one.

>>32660708
so green venusaur is rg version and the more blue-ish is rb?

>>32661054
hot

>>32660716
Red/Green, not FireRed/LeafGreen

>>32661082
No.

Artworks that were made after the sprites for the original games were already in the game, I bet. Although I wonder why the new sprites in (Jap)Blue also have similar looks for the monsters, considering that version was made several months later when the games were already picking up popularity.

>>32661087
Shit, misunderstood your post. I thought you were saying >>32660703 was from FRLG.

>>32660600
It's still there
The way Venusaur's model squats is reminiscent of a toad

The artworks were released at the same time if not before Red and Green. They're even on Nintendo's page for the games, which is over 20 years old at this point.
