How do we fix Pokemon designs?

A quadrupedal swordsman is a fucking retarded idea that nobody at Game Freak or The Pokemon Company has been able to make work. The fact that it has to stand on its hind legs to even do the things its entire design is based around means it should have just been bipedal to begin with.

make them sexier

Right looks better, if there was one pokemon that should have been a biped, it's Samurott

I actually like the right design

I wish Meowscarada was my pet and my gf.

Are you sure? She's a jealous bitch

That’s the best part

are you arguing for modern mons cause you chose the worst one to turn into a cool swordsman

Samurott really is such an unfortunate design because it would have been saved if it came out one gen later but then it would be lambasted for being the beginning of starters taking way too many human characteristics.
It’s even more weird because Gen 4 and 5 are already adopting human characteristics for the starters but they just didn’t go in all the way for the one pokemon that really fucking needed it.

Yes and I don't care

Did they replace that ugly basketball player?

implying the right isn't an improvement

This is not the own you think it is. Right would ironically be a major improvement.

I would be too if someone touched Likos delicious thighs without my permission.

Do they…?

No, they even gave him Pikachu and a Shiny (Mega) Lucario

Everything in this picture looks so tacky. God I hate nu-pokemon.

this is the guy? He looks whiter than Brock.

Gross.

They sleep in the same bed, what do you think happens?

Samurott should've stood on two legs and anybody that disagrees is big dumb.

I like dewott but samurott is pretty lame

Samurott is the one design they shouldve kept the line as bipedal. The newer gens I ahev the opposite opinion for (especially the fucking gen7 cat line being RUINED.)

Old shitmons stand no chance

Kilowattrel is great.

fix

This is the fix. Pokefags already have tier lists of how fuckable each eeveelution is, at least it's slightly more normal when the mons are biped.

otter

otter

sealion

What? Why not be like other starters? Torchic is a colored chick that becomes ugly and awkward as Combusken before finally maturing into the fighting chicken Blaziken, it doesn't turn a cassowary because chickens aren't 'cool' enough to be a final evolution.

W-WOW HE'S SO HAYAI

Meanwhile in-game Ceruledge it's slow as fuck and you need to take a hit for it to actually become a fast sweeper

Fucking retarded

both look like ass

Chef Boyardee animation.

Insane that they kept her curves

Why even get rid of ash lmao

wtf you can't just aim for the hor

BURASTO BAAN

why does the animation for modern pokemon look so soulless compared to how it looked in the 90s

I fucking hate Roy

What are you talking about? Is this slang?

Digimon is even more gay and pozzed than Pokemon. It's a completely lost cause.

I don't think this is my responsibility.
And I doubt it is yours.
So I don't know what kind of answer you expect.

everyone was begging for a new protagonist for years until they gave it to us and everyone wanted Ash back

weakness policy

weak beat up user

Sp. Atk investment

use beat up on Ceruledge

lava plume spam?

You can do it in doubles, but Armarouge is just the better of the duo because of expanding force.

Even internally there was a longstanding demand for a new protag.

Miyahara: For about 10 years now, Ishihara has been repeatedly questioning whether we should still continue with Ash.

Sugimori: To my knowledge, Ishihara has been saying that for about 20 years.

Right would be incredibly popular with that decent design despite forsaking the remnant of older gens' beastlier designs, and you know it.
t. like the left design too

I just wanted a funny weedcat that evolves into a weedlion but all we get instead is goddamn furbait
At this point they should just give each starter drastically different male/female forms for their final evo so everyone can have their cake and eat it too

They will never do alternate forms for starters because it would be a nightmare for marketing

So Samurott would look like Gardevoir if it was made in 2024?
Makes no sense.

Its funny because in game gengar eats that megaman rip off alive

god I hate gengar
how do you take HUNTER, that absolutely BALLER design and turn it into a generic chibi blob?

You have to fix the art schools: stop teaching anything in art school from after 1850. Yes, EIGHTEEN 50. Nothing beyond neoclassicism, and a big focus on aesthetics and technique.

Impressionism, and every other "rebellion" movement in art has to be thrown in the dustbin of history. This is why indie devs tend to have better art styles and aesthetics than big corpos: they weren't tainted with "modern" art.

Megas, Ash Greninja, Gigantamax, and regional variants all count as alternate forms.

thats what you get for passing the gator

Because people wouldn’t shut the fuck up about him needing to be grand champion ruler of the Pokemon world. The new series is basically a reset button so they can have mid level adventures forever

Samurott seems more like a chef who stabs fish with his swords than anyithing else. Serperior is a waiter. Emboar is the guest.

They take inspiration from different cultures

Serperior: Western royalty
Emboar: Chinese warlord
Samurott: Japanese samurai

Black and White are closer to Red/Blue than to the present

Gen 4 is now retro

No...

Holy shit. When did it get this bad?

This looks light years better than
Why is that?

This thing is so fucking ugly

It was more

mass backlash at ash losing to alain

corpos backpedal hard and have ash win Alola

for some reason they don't want to keep following Ash's adventures if he wins

decide to have ash win a natdex champion tournament and be the best ever

end Ash's journey without ever explaining what the fuck a Pokémon master even is

Pokémon just handles reoccurring characters awkwardly, so when it's forced to for decades, people are going to be pissed when Ash's development inevitably gets reverted/prevented just so the show can maintain the status quo.

It is incredibly jarring to see Pokemon/characters from newer generations alongside ones from older generations with the clashing art styles.

Look, I hate pokemon with human facial hair, but your shitty fursona is even worse

old newgrounds had better animations than this wtf

First one is from a short animation and second one is from the TV show. They will spread the budget depending on how important a fight or scene is.

The girl in the nidoran hoodie is insanely cute.

Nice fang

Both look like absolute shit. Gen 5 killed Pokemon

Kinda curious how the Littens went straight to her Legs, like if they were trained to do so.

Meowscarada is a good design even non-sexually.

Samurott is my favourite of all the Water starters.

That's just what cats do man.
They bite your wrists or ankles constantly to get your attention.

I like that they are aggressively hiding the bottom half of its body after it pulls out the swords because they have no idea how it should be standing.

the Chansey actually shrinks inside the hat

Is that the first time they actually depicted that in the anime?

She's pretty cool
