There are so many versions of that picture, and this is the only good one.

It's fucking obvious newer gen pokemon have very different style from older ones
I mean try, just try, to imagine Crabrawler fitting in the top pic there
Pro tip: You can't

Can't wait for this template to flood the catalog for the next 2 weeks until someone reverse irony it creating this endless loop of shitposting
>>33423256
To be fair, I can't imagine bottom Ash in the top pic either.
>>33423258
>>more details
Not really. They added more bells and whistles to it but there's actually less detail.
>>33423285
Why not?
SM Ash is fucking badass
>>33423208
Actually looks better honestly

Holy shit that Charizard is good

More Gen I in this style.
gen 1 shouldn't have the neck thing
gen iv is okay kinda right
the other two are complete nonsense
>>33423433
This is beautiful

Take out the red eye stripe and I really like them

It spins when it attacks retardo. Would you rather have a 3d model awkwardly balancing on its head the whole time?

>>33423258
You completely missed the point and the worst thing is that you actually believe you are right, the have the same number of details, they merely changed the perfectly round shapes into imperfect ones and viceversa
>>33424802
>>33423146
Someone needs to fix the artstyles. Gens I and II look fine, but it'll likely be more accurate of you'd adust Gens III and IV. I'm not sure if that's defacing art, though.
>>33423256
I could image most Pokemon in that picture honestly, it all depends on how it's decipted. You just picked the most cartoony picture of crabrawler you could to suggest that's what it always looks like.
>>33425079
>You just picked the most cartoony picture of crabrawler you could
No, Crabrawler just happens to only appears in the cartoonish trash SM anime, so you can't find non-cartoony pics of it
And anyway, I couldnt see it on top pic unless you make it look like that
>>33424683
>awkwardly
lmao your point is so fucking retarded you had to inject a negative word into it just to make it sound slightly more convincing. yes we want it upside down because that's how it looks best.
>>33423256
Well yeah, its from the fucking movie.
>>33425153
Not the point
Try to imagine Crabrawler, even in the movie's art style, among those
It would stick out as retarded and out of place
>>33424454
I understand some of the complaints about 3D models, but this is just nostalgia-faggotry. Hitmontop's 3D model and animations make perfect sense and look great.
>>33424454
IT'S NOT UNUSUAL

This man understands. Old Pokemon had more detailed anatomy and visual depth. New Pokemon just have more decals and contrasting colors, but their shapes are simplistic and toylike.
>>33425208
Wrong
Really
>>33425210
Drampa looks retarded and would definitly not fit in
The others could tho
>>33425212
>>33423375
Finally looks part poison, so, not bad really

Literally we have a Meowth in the most current gen, so, this isn't quite working
>>33425226
Take that back motherfucker
>>33425232
Top kek.
>>33423256
Yes, cause literally any gen 1 pokemon could fit into that pic, and literally no new gen pokemon would fit in there. Retard.
>>33425232
that one extra line below chansey's mouth changes so much about how I look at it, makes it a lot freakier

mah new waifu
>>33425024
To me, Gen IV fits the best behind Gen I. When I think of Gen IV, I think of the crossgen evos, many of whom are quite rounded. Color-wise, it hits right on the money as well; if you look at a Sprite sheet of Pokemon, you can identify Gen IV almost immediately by its use of darker blues and purples -- think Mismagius, Honchkrow, and the Drifblim, Garchomp, Toxicroak, Skuntank, Lucario lines. It's also one of the gens where quite a few Pokemon had colored sclera, and though not quite as guilty of it as most people think, there were SOME Pokemon with unnecessary spikes (think Garchomp, Lucario).

>>33427916
i literally have no idea why some people seem to think """realism""" makes a design good. it has no bearing at all on the quality of a design.
>>33427935
>"Wow, this new dog mon literally my mom's dog!"
>"this new dog mon isn't realistic enough!"
They will never EVER be satisfied.
>>33427955
You're missing the point entirely. The argument isn't that designs that look closer to real animals is better. If anything, most gen 1 Pokemon don't even look like any specific animal and most of them are just ambiguous monsters. But the thing that IS better is that they have more realistic details that make them more believable as creatures.
>>33427786
>if gen 1 done today
>scripted sequences everywhere
>you are forced to beat Misty and Surge in the right order
>you team up with your rival to fight rocket grunts during the Silph co. incident
>Giovanni goes crazy and tries to use Mewtwo against you
Even if they are obsolete you really grow to appreciate just how free you are in the gen 1 games, specially after finishing a gen 5 title
>>33427955
Because people need realism for muh immersion

>>33424683
>>33428109
This, honestly.
>>33427935
>>33427955
Look at the pic again, massive retards
It's not about realism in inspiration (looking like a real life animal), but in details (looking like a real life being and not a shitty undetailed drawing)
>>33427975
>having your rival be a loser asshole who doesn't even fight team rocket and is just there to try and beat you while you're down
>having mewtwo actually being relevant to the fucking story and not just some trophy you find in a cave
the only bad thing there is the scripted sequences if you don't like that and MAYBE having to beat Misty and Surge in the right order. I don't understand why people have a hard on for that though. I really don't see the appeal.
>>33427916
>a-adding lines makes it a better pokemon!!!!!!
And people got pissed off when they added shading to quagsire so he didn't look like a slice of bologna
>implying talonflame's eye is large enough to have all that detail you're asking for
>smooth, simple, rounded
you mean the kind of drawing that goes along with the theme it's trying to portray? What do you want meinsho to have big bulky muscles? That's no it's gimmick.
Yeah let's just focus on this one thing that is kinda ok!!!!!!!!!!
>turns into a cocoon
That has nothing to do with what is being talked about, stop trying to pad shit onto the arguement that you tried pulling out of your ass
>>33423375
>>33423383
>>33423394
I like those a ton more than the real gen 1 starters
>>33430074
That doesn't really change anything. More detailed doesn't mean better or worst, and the reverse is also true.
>>33430123
You're ridiculous. Go and watch Digimon then

Slightly worse
>>33423433
Pidgeot, Fearow, and Beedrill are amazing
>>33423258
People who unironically fall for the muh overdesigned meme are absolute retards. Gen 1 had simple concepts with complex figures and shapes. Later gens (specially gens 4 and 5) created pokemon with simpler figures but with a more complex concept which compensated the lack of a detailed shape by adding stripes and spikes related to the concept of the pokemon. This is what lead to the retarded overdesigned meme being spread by normies. Gen 6 and 7 started fucking all that by listening to fans complaints and went back to using simple concepts while also keeping the simple shape designs. This is why the last two gens have been a complete clusterfuck design wise.
>>33425232
>having to cherrypick this badly
Try again cocksucker.
>>33423146
at least post the updated version
(the chicken version is still better than all of them)
>>33427916
>"Line under mouth to give aa small amount of extra depth and detail"
>"just a single line"
You ignored the shading below Audino's chin, which gives it depth.
>"Lines under arms to add extra detail"
>"Just basic lines"
Their arms are in different position.
>"Separation between colors is spiky to help it feel natural"
>"Separation between colors is again, just flat lines"
That spiky blending makes it look like fur rather than feather.
Also, there is a difference. In the case of Farfetch'd the colour distinctions are simple, while in Talonflame's case its on a pattern, where spiky distincion wouldn't work.
I agree with what you said about Farfetch'd.
You praise Farfetch'd and Chansey for their colours belnding to each other, yet you ignore that Dragalge's colours also blend in in its pink, green and brown parts.
>"More of an ambiguous monster despite its pre-evos being more reptilian"
Machop does not look reptilian at all, but that's just nitpicking from me.

I feel like the S/M Ash is the Dumb Rick out of all the Ashes.
>>33430662
Yeah it sucks.
imo pokemon should get more details as they evolve, start plain looking like gen and the final evo should be rich in detail like later gens
>>33425301
?? That's the point dumbass
>>33433504
I would train the FUCK out of 1-5. Gen 4 and 5 especially look dank
>>33433504
gen ii is very wrong
>>33433535
naw
>>33433504
>Gen III
Yeah, nah
Gen III is the one that started to have the digimonish vibe with Blaziken, Gerdevoir, Deoxys, Regi trio...etc
If anything, your Gen IV mon looks Gen III
>>33433744
crossed out = not kawaii/round. not exactly a defining feature of the generation.
>>33433813
forgot image
>>33433504
gen 5 looks more like its making fun of the trubbish line than gen 5 in general
i'd train the fuck out of gen 1 and 6, though.

Not him, but that Charizard does look pretty fucking cool. No, I'm not a Digimonfag, I do play Monster Hunter however.
>>33433937
i mean either way there's still a whole lot that don't fit that description at all. not to mention all the baby pokémon gen ii has who definitely should be that way.
it's more or less as cutesy as any other region.
>>33433854
>gen 5 looks more like its making fun of the trubbish line than gen 5 in general
This is the issue with summarizing Gen 5 designs. Same with that chicken example.
>>33433504
Gen 5 looks more like something out of Dragon Quest
>>33423433
Fuck you. Now i want those to be real
