Digimon tend to look like actual monsters, and play up the freakish/bizarre/deadly angles a lot more often.

The point of Gargomon is its guns. Why do the extra features need a reason to be there? Digimon are not wild animals that have adapted to their environment. They're cyber monsters.
>>
A lot of digimon designs tend to re-use certain element s like specific eyes or jaw designs, or are just blatant recolors of one another. It's the same sort of problem I have with Gen I Pokemon designs where a lot of them used the exact same "rocky dinosaur" body type and those boring triangle eyes, in that it's just an unappealing trait that they chose to use a lot.

>The point of Gargomon is its guns
So the point of the design is that it's a shit design? Uh, wow. That's great.

Blastoise having cannons makes sense. It's built up to be a tank-based design and it being based on a turtle fits that theme. Remoraid being based on a gun makes sense because there are actual fish that attack by shooting water from their mouths. And even then it's integrated intelligently and subtlety into the design and played with Mantine possibly being based on a fighter jet.

With Gargomon it's just "DUDE DOGS WITH GUNS IS COOL XDDDDDD"

I don't think you actually know what Gaudy means. How are some jeans and a belt slung over the shoulder gaudy? It doesn't just mean ugly. In general you seem to have a very difficult time articulating what you don't like about the design of these Digimon besides saying that Pokemon doesn't do things that way. But Digimon aren't Pokemon, and as such, are not expected to conform to the design standards of Pokemon with regards to conveying a believable (fantasy) creature. Digimon are monsters from a fake cyber dimension created by and influenced passively by what humans do in the "real world".

Most Digimon are just designed with the intention of making something cool or interesting, without regard for realism. Some of them are supposed to look weird or ugly. "Overdesigned" is also not a complaint you can leverage against an entire franchise's designs, because the "over" part of overdesigned implies there is a design standard that is being exceeded. If all Digimon have complex designs with lots of little details and additions, then that's the standard. They're supposed to look like that. Pokemon have simpler, cleaner designs does not mean everything should do what Pokemon does.

It looks out of place. It looks cheap. It looks slapped on just for the sake of having something slapped on instead of having a reason to be there. It's exactly what gaudy means. Pick up a dictionary instead of posting on 4chan.

>Most Digimon are just designed with the intention of making something cool or interesting,
But they're not cool or interesting. They're just clusterfucks. Having extra shit slapped on for no reason does not equate to cool or interesting. Having unique concepts elegantly tied into the design is interesting.

>They're supposed to look like that
So they're supposed to look like shit? Wow, ok. Everything looking like shit doesn't justify everything looking like shit.

>>33501745
>Pokemon tend to aim for safe, simple designs meant to appeal to a lot of people

So.... designs that are actually.... good? Wow, I haven't thought of that. I don't think making bad designs on purpose is a good business move though. :)

>>33501747
>Literally just your opinion.
No it's not. Every successful design has reasons for things existing on the design.

>>33501841
Blastoise is an armored sea creature that shoots water. Expanding on its tank theme further by adding cannons makes sense.

>>33501750
They're not overdesigned though. Its frankensteinish appearance is the point of its design. It's not slapped on for no reason like Digimon.

>It looks out of place. It looks cheap. It looks slapped on just for the sake of having something slapped on instead of having a reason to be there. It's exactly what gaudy means.
It's jeans and a simple belt. It is not extravagant, it is not flashy, the colours are even muted. No, gaudy does not really apply. They supplement the guns to convey a simple gunslinger look. That's their intention.

>But they're not cool or interesting. They're just clusterfucks. Having extra shit slapped on for no reason does not equate to cool or interesting. Having unique concepts elegantly tied into the design is interesting.
But I think many of them do look cool. So I'm right, right? I mean, I said they're cool. So they are. That appears to be how things are working here. If we're specifically talking about Gargomon, I like it because the guns are cool, but the other elements look strange and a bit funny. Gargomon I would say is an amusing design.

>So they're supposed to look like shit? Wow, ok. Everything looking like shit doesn't justify everything looking like shit.
Hmm, nope, I said they're supposed to be detailed and they're supposed to have accessories and other bizarre elements. When I think about how I would design a monster, I don't think of how I can make it look elegant or simple.

>Expanding on its tank theme further by adding cannons makes sense.
What tank theme existed before to have expanded by the cannons? It doesn't even stand on four legs, and never did at any point in its evolutionary line.

Have you considered not approaching an artistic discussion as if you're an investor? I don't care about what has more mass market appeal and what directions make for good business moves. Considering this seems to be the smartest and best way to design monsters to you, I sure hope you've never disparaged a new Pokemon design for "chasing the yokai watch audience".

And yet Digimon is still around, has fans, and sells toys. Kids in the early 2000s liked Wargreymon, and some still do. When Pokemon is dominating the safe, cute, all-ages market, it makes sense to target an entirely different group of people and carve out a dedicated niche fanbase, rather than chasing after Pokemon and always being #2 (or lower) to it in that field.

I agree, Gallantmon is very cool.

Digimon outside of the anime don't follow dedicated evolutionary lines. That's why there are many Digimon that evolve into things that don't continue the same design trends as the previous form, because there were likely half a dozen Digimon that could all evolve into this same thing.

Gallantmon/Dukemon is solely an evolution of Wargrowlmon though, and takes on a humanoid form because it had become a trend in the anime and to an extent, the entire series, for higher levels of Digimon to take on more humanoid appearance, as a kind of exaggeration and simplification of the idea of evolution culminating in a humanoid shape. Though there are a few too many Digimon that follow this trend, it's something I don't like about Digimon despite liking several isolated cases of it (like Gallantmon)

Also, in-universe, Guilmon and his entire evolutionary line were literally designed by a child who played the Digimon card game.

2. It's based on a salamander, which have a mythological affinity with fire

>>33502159
>1. You can quickly tell it has a fire attribute from its color and ember on its tail

You need to be able to tell that in Pokemon because fire is a type and weaknesses and resistances rely on that sort of readability. Agumon is not "fire type", I don't need to know he can breathe fire before he does it, and in most cases in Digimon, every one that I can think of, anyway, you can just read what attack it can do on the card, or the game tells you the element straight-off because the game was not designed with guessing that in mind. Again, why does everything need to be done like Pokemon?

He was right though. Digimon don't have types like Pokémon do. The types are usually added in the rpg-like games, but there are several games they don't have types in, like the Rumble Arena ones, and in most other branches of the franchise, most importantly the v-pets.
Digimon types are sometimes a game mechanic, not something that define the Digimon.

You posted an example of a game that's trying to go with the Pokémon/SMT system. Digimon in the show/card game/in general aren't "Fire/Water/Grass" type and have a big type match up chart like that.

I don't think you'r very familiar with Digimon. Japanese Digimon names are very often not derived from foreign words. Terriermon, Rapidmon and Saintgargomon being the Japanese names for the rest of the line should show you as much. All are derived from English words. As for the record the only one with a different name in English is Saintgargomon, who was changed to Megagargomon.

Pokemon generally have better designs than child/adult/perfect level digimon, but ultimate level Digimon are mostly god-tier. Mugendramon, Wargreymon, Seraphimon, Omegamon, Alphamon, Cherubimon, Zhuqiaomon, Baihumon, DORUgoramon, Kaisergreymon to name a few. Don't care much about baby or child-level digimon at all except for DORUmon and Patamon, and among the adult ones I really only like Angemon, but goddamn the ultimates are fucking beautiful

Nah, adult and perfect is where digimon truly shine. Sure there are great ultimate level digimon like Mugendramon but a lot of the level is plagued by knight like designs.
Wargreymon and DORUgoramon look better in their previous stage, and Kaisergreymon isn't even a proper ultimate.
>>
I think each design style fits their settings and core ideas.
Pokemon is looking to make you feel like a naturalist, a bug collector. Pokemon biology is important in their designs, and we get a los of exposition through the dex to what habitat and ecological role a pokemon plays.

Digimon, on the other hand, does not give a shit. As digital beings, they only serve the purpose of looking cool and killing each other, so guns everywhere, demons, motorcycles, spikes are good to go.

This is reflected in-game as in pokemon you have to look for them in specific areas and their moveset reflects some biological traits.
Most digimon games, on the other hand, consist in rpgs where you get an initial digimon and evolve-devolve it into a lot of cool motherfuckers.
>>
>>33502545
Torterra and Eldradimon are both based on world turtle while Xuanwumon is a fucking genbu
>>
>>33502672
That's exactly what I like about them though. Knights and mechas, humanoid creatures. Those are my favorites. There's no way Metalgreymon looks better than Wargreymon nor DORUguremon better than DORUgoramon. And yeah KaiserGreymon isn't an actual Ultimate, my mistake - it is still a very Ultimate- like design.

I don't disagree but I would like to point out that games like the Digimon World series does a good job in making believable worlds with Digimon in proper areas, even if the world isn't realistic.

No it's not, because

1. Mew is weaker than Zekrom
2. Mew's concept requires that it has an extremely basic design
3. Zekrom's design still looks it can aesthetically fit within the same universe as Mew because despite having a huge amount of surface details, its entire body is only one color, making it look relatively simple

Digimon designs are just fucking all over the place regardless of your power levels and you have no real way of telling shit. And in context of themselves they don't even look like they fit in properly.

1. Both are legendaries. Do you really believe all Ultimate level digimon are equally powerful?

I wish every trio after gen 4 didn't have such vague levels of power.

"oh can control electricity" what are we supposed to take away from that?

>>
>>33503151
>1. Both are legendaries.
"Legendary" isn't indicative of power level. Legendaries are just exceedingly rare Pokemon. Fucking Cosmog is a legendary yet it has one of the lowest BSTs in the game. Digimon levels ARE correlated with power level so they should be roughly the same. Unless that's just another inconsistent thing that Digimon fucked up. I wouldn't be surprised.

>2. Marineangemon is based on the same thing as Manaphy
And yet Manaphy actually looks like it fits in with its franchise while Marineangemon doesn't. I wonder why that is.

>3. As much as the digimon. This image isn't any better or worse than what you posted.
No, because they're both simple designs with limited palettes and they fit in the context of other Pokemon. The aesthetic is roughly similar. Digimon in comparison is all over the place.

>>33503171
>>implying evolutionary stages in digimon correlate directly to power
They do.

>>implying we even have a proper grasp on how strong Mew or Zekrom is
Zekrom BST: 680
Mew BST: 600

Mew tier: UU-OU

seems pretty clear to me.
>>
>>33503187
I actually like when the power level is vague. The weather trio and creation trio's godlike levels are a bit much for me. Making the mascot legendaries following them more in line with Lugia and Ho-Oh was a good decision in my opinion.
>>
>>33503227
Are we talking about mechanical or in-universe power level? Please make that clear, because as far as Pokémon is concerned there is very little consistency between the two and Digimon do not have proper mechanical power levels but vary from game to game.
>And yet Manaphy actually looks like it fits in with its franchise while Marineangemon doesn't. I wonder why that is.
Marineangemon doesn't look out of please. You might find it being ultimate level weird but saying it doesn't fit in in its own franchise is absurd.
>No, because they're both simple designs with limited palettes and they fit in the context of other Pokemon.
Funny that you say that. Since many newer pokémon has greater diversity in their color palette, compare Solgaleo to Mewtwo for example. Hell compare Solgaleo to Titamon if you want. Also pokémon has pretty different aesthetics, most of the shit you would say is too different between Marineangemon and Titamon also applies to Mew versus Zekrom.
>>
>>33503029
If anything there should be more inconsistencies with Digimon designs. I like the fact that there are a few high level Digimon that don't fit the mold, but way too many of them are either cybernetic humanoids or waifus. Marineangemon is an outlier, as opposed to Pokemon where you have a pretty even division between cutesey legendaries and monsters (and said monsters have much more varied designs).

Rookie and Champion designs handle this much better in my opinion. Luckily Cyber Sleuth's "normal" mode is braindead enough to get by with your favorites and one or two broken Digimon, for the most part anyway.
>>
>>33503227
>Digimon levels ARE correlated with power level so they should be roughly the same
They're stages of growth.
just because one digimon is at the ultimate stage doesn't mean another digimon at the child stage can't kick their ass(like with Lucemon and Hackmon who are far above ordinary ultimate levels)

>Zekrom BST: 680

What? Calumon can't even anything besides empowering other digimon.
The entire point of it is that it gave up the ability to evolve or fight entirely to strengthen others.

Another Japanese CCG. Pretty fun, but not much of a community outside of Japan - but unilke Duel Masters, it still exists out here. The three pictured units are Frenzy Emperor Dragon, Gaia Desperado; Death Star-vader, "Omega Loop" Glendios; and Claret Sword Dragon. Claret would probably be higher up if I could actually afford to build a deck around him.

>Charizard's line as Digimon is just Charizard with Greymon bits
Fuck off.
Agumon's line is about an ancient monster adapting to survive. Greymon's weird head thing is actually a shell ripped from a rhinoceros beetle to use as battle armor. MetalGreymon is basically Greymon crudely adapting to technological warfare.
Meanwhile, Charmander is a fire-breathing lizard that becomes more aggressive and learns to fly.

Grimer and Muk are blobs of toxic sludge, not poop. Their closest Digimon equivalents may be either Numemon (literally slime with eyes) or Raremon (a Digimon that tried enhancing itself with technology but instead destroyed its own DNA structure and mutated into this horrible undead corpse-like thing instead).
>>
>>33505269
When some other franchise gets as iconic as Pokémon, ie never
>>
>>33505269
It won't. Pokemon has essentially killed the genre, not by ruining it, but by becoming so overwhelmingly popular that no other franchise can provide a better alternative.
Yokai-Watch is the closest thing possible right now, and it's only a serious contender in Japan, while it's just sorta stumbling around everywhere else.
Digimon had a few good console games statewide, but without anything else to back it up, it doesn't have much momentum outside of dedicated fans.
Tamagotchi is dead in the US, but still big in Japan and celebrating its 20th anniversary.

Pokemon/Digimon/SMT/MonHun would be enough to support a board.
>>
>>33505992
I would say Raremon is the best alternative by far. Numemon and all related species are too slug-like.
>>33505960
I think the skull is only said to have become beetle-like, not actually stolen from a beetle. But yeah, most of the features the line gain have to do with adapting. Not that there aren't other Digimon that literally steal their shit, like Zudomon wearing an Archelomon shell.
>>
>>33506116
Pokémon alone is enough to support a board, albeit barely.
I fear that pokémon threads would eclipse the other franchises and threads dedicated to them would either end up as flamewars between different fans or eventually devolve into generals.

Just take a look at how detailed and well-crafted this pokedigi is, the anatomy is done well, unlike the lions, this thing is it's own original being, the pokedigi lions are just that, lions, compared to a lion IRL the hips are indeed displaced, but you cannot compare this specific creature to anything IRL so technically it has perfect anatomy while pokedigi lions don't.

I think you're being a bit too generous here. Omegamon Zwart D is a physically and mentally broken Omegamon Zwart who is itself a recolor of Omegamon.

They generally, usually stick within the "family" of their source of inspiration. This family can be species, genera, items, abstract shit, etc. It can be sometimes vague, however, especially with cases such as the Pikipek line's in which very few people seem to realize that woodpeckers and toucans are closely related.

They're all supposed to be dog/rabbit mixtures, at least up to mega. Rabbit parts aside, Rapidmon is loosely based on a poodle.
