you grew up and the realization pokemon was always a 2nd rate rpg settled in

you didnt alignt the types correctly.

Top = no soul
Bot = soul

KANTOOOOOOOOOO

The top is simple the bottom looks like something out of deviant art

Designs are too toylike in their proportions. Parts like mouths are glued on or just a hole. Doesn't seem like real creature first. Re uses so many design qualities so they don't even seem fresh.

The fakemon "leak" someone posted earlier was better. These are so fucking bad I didn't believe they were official at first

If I was able to be a kid again right now and have the new pokemon be my first pokemon and then age to where I am now, I'd be able to give you an objective comparison unabated by nostalgia

I like Sobble, but he reminds me of just an altered frokie. Scorbunny is a dumb name.

1st gen starters are better (IMO) because their designs are cute and cool at the same time. Look at their fangs and claws. They look ready for battle. Now look at the other starters.

They all look to round. Look at their eyes, they’re all the same shape. And why do their mouths look like that?

Nothing, they're cute
Grookey gang all the way

For real though, everyone hates the starters of every new gen until another batch comes along, then all of a sudden everyone will say these were fantastic

I didn't know neopets was still going

Rowlet was made in the wrong generation, as he fits more in the britbong region instead of Grookey, and vice versa for the monkey.

The rabbit is fine though, and I don't know what to say about Sobble.

Made for sucking dick

nothing

you're just a genwunner who doesn't even buy the games anymore but expect the company to appeal to you anyway

kind of interesting to see how many design features get reused in certain generations
squirtle, charmander, and bulbasaur have the exact same mouth and legs, and their eyes are very similar, too

You became a bitter adult

nothing so far
but they always could and probably will with the shitty anthro final evolution

What fucking animal is Sobble based on?

Attached: 1470831984741.jpg (500x500, 33K)

the only decent looking one is bunny. sobble looks like a mudkip ripoff with squirtle's tail and grookey is just full retard.

looks like a gecko

Sobble looks pretty okay, my only qualms being that the curve between its eyes looks dumb, and the cheek spots are maybe a bit much.
Grookey is so close to being good, there's just too many colours. The orange doesn't look right with the green, brown and yellow. Had it just been the latter three colours, I'd like it a lot more.
As for Scorbunny, it's a fittingly unappealing name for an unappealing design. Massive feet on toothpick legs, weird red collar thing on its neck, and the bandages on its nose and sole? No thanks.

Nothing wrong with Sobble.

Huh?

Arr rook same. The starters are plush toys first and starters second. This is the first time where I feel like it's universally true for all three of them. It's the culmination of Piplup's influence.

Gen 1 look like creatures. Charmander, Squirtle and Bulbasaur have mouths that look like an animal's. These new ones literally have stickers for mouths on their heads. Their proportions are also not toy like like the new ones. But I see you're autistic and unable to read a person's post properly or you just flat out ignore enitre parts of it so you'll respond with some bullshit thinking you've won.

No, it's fucked

Fire snake would be cute and could easily evolve into cool shit later.

but foxes are dogs though........canine family

Maybe, if they keep making fire starters based on the zodaic, then yes. The moment they dont is when itks false.

was it autism? wtf pokémon used to be so thicc and juicy

man do i have some bad news for you+

while both sets of starters are cute, only gen 1 actually has some features that ake the pokemon also seem cool
they used to have more sharp, confident looks despite being cute little creatures
pokemon now only goes for cute until evolution, and sticking to cute only in the first evolution makes the starters look less appealing

Cyndaquil is based off of shrews and porcupines or hedgehogs
Fennekin is a fox, although they're related to dogs you would never mistake a fox for a dog.
Charmander is a salamander.

The same thing happened with Overwatch immediately after it's announcement. Blizzard family and friends were in the alpha for the game and were most likely making smut for it in anticipation for the public announcement. I imagine the same thing is happening for this.

Yes

This

How can you guys be so stupid?

They learned how to draw various animals with different shapes rather than making three lizards with the same three-toed hands and feet.

Foxes aren't dogs and Cyndaquil isn't a rat and the fire cat is a cat, not a tiger. If anything this was deconfirmed.

This happened to Vocaloid and Touhou too and I don't think Yamaha and ZUN have secret promo ninjas by the dozens.

this is a timeless tradition for pokemon reveals

Not an argument, and again, your creatures literally have stickers for body features. You want to try again? I'm sure repeating yourself about the eyes will BTFO me eventually.

>wtf Toucannon is literally my mom's toucan
Amerifats are never happy with a series they still consider a fad

Bunnies can shoot fire and charmander the salamander can't swim.

How can you be this obnoxious?

Except that's more about the general art-style shift.
The gen 1 mouths look about as detailed as stickers for that general art-style that was popular at the time.
If you look at the general anime art style that's popular now, those mouths and eyes are pretty standard. Not detailed but standard, same as gen1 for what anime style was popular at the time

They're just too focused on selling merch instead of making instersting monsters. Nobody expected the first game to get any merch at all.

Not all rodents are rats, not all canines are dogs, not all cats are tigers. The way you think is dumb because this is specifically referencing a very specific animal..

The color scheme isn't the problem, bro.

Remove Bulbasaur's spots and Charmander's belly, first.

Because they're interchangable stickers also see they're literally toys

In terms of starters.

This image is misleading. Rapidash gets a horn.

Your SUPER FUNNY post would work if only the babies of that animal didn't also have huge heads and sticc bodies, while Horsea is gen 1 and has no excuse whatsoever. Not to mention its general shape being more based on the TOY of a seahorse. Nice try.

And unlike Seadra, it doesn't carry to Dragalge.

So gen 4? Their starters do the same exact thing.

I notice the original starters all have kind of a fierce edge to them. Sharp points, claws, teeth. Squirtle kind of looks like a pussy, admittedly, but he gets cooler with evolutions.

It's funny because out of all of those the gen 1 are the ones who look the same
I mean look at charmander and squirtle, they're like two different skins for the same character

So the fire starter being a bunny was predicted, or leaked? the design isn't the same as the "leaks", but the similarity between the concepts is suspicious

dude wtf she's naked

It says it's a mouse, not a rat, and that's just the English translation (I don't know what the Japanese description is) and mice aren't rats. Not to mention that Cyndaquil is clearly not aesthetically based off of a mouse or a rat, but something like a porcupine.

literally this These are the most blatantly generic designs they've ever had for starters. Every single one looks like they were based on the same template to make cheap plush toys from and then just picked an element and animal to slap on to it.

They are running out of creative ideas.

They all have the exact same head shape and they're based on concepts we've seen before. Grookey is nu-Pansage, Scorbunny is nu-Buneary, and Sobble is nu-Mudkip.

>8 is shit
>despite the fact that these are the most simplified starters in gens

except the only bipedal one is the football bunny. i'm glad GF is appealin

Every starter looks like shit, just like gen 5. It's worse because gen 7 had good starters all around despite being shit gmaes.

Oh fuck you

Same with Gen 1 and it's sad you don't realize that

but i thought contrarians hated that pokemon has gotten too overdesigned. the only thing wrong with the bunny is the tomboy patch but removing just makes it look to bland. Grass monkey gets a pass for actually being a grass monkey unlike pansage who is just DUDE GREEN MONKEY LMAO. at least ook ook has a stick and it will clearly be incorporated in its' evos. sad gecko is the worst one for now but evos can change a lot.

Not really? I mean Squirtle and Charmander are kind of similar, but they're not copy-pasted like these are, Squirtle's head is more round and Charmander's is more oval.

anyone else fantasize about a reboot that gets rid of all the shit pokemon forever and only keeps the good ones

I wasn't the one saying it was homosexual. I was just correcting the misquote in the first place and got pulled in. Should have made clear I wasn't user in the first place.

Gen 2 had the worst next to these Gen 8 ones now. But Gen 3 had great fucking starters.

Another fire/fighting? Boo.

These are the first starters I've been excited about in many generations.

>almost no details whatsoever

The "lategenitis" is strong with these designs. You can tell the devs literally don't care anymore.

Shit taste it's the last hurrah of shine in Pokemon before it starts getting snuffed out and replaced with low effort shit.

Sorry to burst your bubble, zoomer, but gen 1 and 2 are the best pokemon.

The mudkip line was the only good Starter Design in Gen 3. Outside of water types, Gen 3 was pure shit, only the water pokemon designs were any good.

The standouts Gen 2 has are very good, but the rest are utterly forgettable shitmons that you would never use in game.

No we don't

Why is everyone saying it's based on the UK when the only similarities are of England. It's not technically wrong but people often think England is the UK instead and I'm very autistic about this

You confuse specific orders and families and just lump all animals into said families when they aren't the fucking same and you clearly don't understand how the Chinese zodiac works since you're trying to argue that since they're "similar" it also counts which doesn't make any sense becuase the zodiac specifically talks about very specific animals and not orders or families. Chinese don't celebrate year of the Fox or year of the Canine or year of the Wolf, it's year of the Dog. Nothing but the dog. You can keep baiting all day but it does you no good. 50% of that shit is wrong, don't get mad at people for pointing it out.

None. Pokemon is a shit franchise. The first one is almost devoid of these nu-flaws but its design instead look painfully generic and boring. But at least not playdough-like like gen 2, 3 and 6. Not that i like it more than the others though, 4 is my favorite. People attack gen 5 for the genies but gen 3 did it first and WORSE with the pikaclones AND two legendaries.

"another" said in that way means that we got one recently. We didn't.

And why aren't you complaining about the 3 pure grass and 3 pure water starters? They're just as bad, only Blastoise has an excuse because it was in the first gen.

Well say what you mean next time nigger. I thought you were specifically asking for a pure fire type bipedal starter.

But Gen 4 has the absolute worst starters and only Piplup is "best" because he's the least shit.

Fighting-Psychic-Dark works too

Literally develops tiger stripes as it evolves. Its 2nd stage is literally called Torracat. Look up what "Tora" is in Japanese.

>Dinosaur
And I thought Americans played LGPE

>Salamander
Japan clearly equates Slamanders with Dragons. Pretty much every time there's a "Salamander" in anime, it's literally a fucking dragon. And Charizard is clearly meant to be a dragon visually, even if it's not dragon type.
>Cats
Nigga it's clearly a tiger cub from the start and the final evolution is clearly a tiger. Incineroar is fucking based on TIGER Mask.
>Porcupine/hedgehog
Cyndaquil is literally the Fire MOUSE pokemon. That's close enough to a Rat.
>Fox
It's specifically a Fennec Fox which is a type that is literally kept as a pet like a dog in places. I'll admit it's the weakest link, but there's still a clear connection as their both canines.

Tepig is a rapist

Touché.
>"Its Japanese name, Fushigidane, is a combination of the Japanese words for mystery or miracle (fushigi) and seed (tane). In translating the game for English speaking audiences, Nintendo gave the Pokémon "cleverly descriptive names" related to their appearance or features as a means to make the characters more relatable to American children; thus Bulbasaur, relating to both its dinosaur appearance and the large garlic-shaped bulb on its back."

EUGH

WHY
ISN'T IT
THE SAME?!!
GIVE ME SAME
SAME OLD SAME OLD
WHY
DIFFERENT???!

>The green one
an algamation of ugly colors, orange and brown clash so fucking hard, shit taste club
>Red
Looks okay but vaguely familiar
>Blue
An good design, very cute
>Wtf why does my literal baby game have cute characters in it?!
Buzz off

>Except this fallacy is double edged sword because in this case artist is someone who actually can do art, have knowledge of art and experience in art for decades. And (You) have nothing of this.
Nope. You're just using the same fallacy with more words.

Looks more like a bunny than scorbunny.

>Close enough to a rat
>Close enough
>It's close enough man cmon
>Litten is the FIRE CAT POKEMON
>You outright admit fenikin is a fennec fox and your only defense is "some people" keep them like pets without posting any proof
>Still not a fucking dog
You say everyone else is arguing semantics when you have to fucking do it just for your theory to make a monochrome of sense you blithering retard. Just because some like Chimchar or torchic do have a Chinese new year doesn't mean every starter will you fucking mongo this is some game theory tier shit.

It's a fox though

I'm fully aware of what the word is. It isn't the Japanese name for the thing, it's the English name for it and the English description for the English name of the pokemon specifically calls it a cat, as in a housecat, and not a tiger. The Jap name for the pokemon even specifically says "nya" as in the sterotypical sound that japan uses for a cat meowing. God fucking damn, you are a fucking retard.

>implying they won't finally change the ratio to 50/50 this gen
they already did it in Let's Go, and they went as far as to give eevee a gender difference and make it so you can see it from the very first cutscene when you start the game, so it's probably safe to assume that they're finally got over the "make starters mostly male to make them harder to breed" shit

Either the rabbit or the water starter for sure.

They tend to make everything super round. In the pic in you can clearly see how corners are made more round. It makes it look cuter but not all Pokémon benefit from it. The tougher looking ones are the ones that get hit the hardest by this.

>ENGLISH NAMES DON'T COUNT REEEEE
Full retard. Next you're gonna tell me his big bipedal pro-wrestler design with a tiger's face isn't based on the popular wrestler and manga character Tiger Mask.

Different isn't bad. Bad is bad. This is bad and different.

I wonder if the firebunny's evo is gonna be...

...Hot.

>vaguely familiar
It has Chespin's face. It's the exact same teeth.

Here let me help you since I'm not a gen 1fag. This is the worst gen of starters.

this is obectively wrong. look at a chihuahua and tell me it doesn't look like fennekin.

>all these different answers
That’s how you know it’s a shit design

It IS the same

>Everything is close enough man cmon
>Trying to apply Chinese traditions to a Japanese company
>Fennec foxes are kept as dogs therefore it's the same thing
>It's a fire cat Pokemon but it looks like a tiger so it counts
Based retard.

>DUDE THE ORIGINAL JAPANESE IS THIS!!!
>TORRA IS ONLY IN ENGLISH (Torra, too. Not tora)
>YET THE ENGLISH ALSO SAYS ITS JUST A CAT BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER LMAO
You really are fucking dumb, aren't you?

user.
I’m gonna let you in on some info before I call you retarded.
Cyndaquil is Hiniarashi
Google ‘bulbapedia Pokémon category’
Find cyndaquil

>What went wrong?
They can't even be bothered to be innovative anymore or push boundaries. Just straight up lazy.
Grookey = shit take on Chimchar
Scorbunny = shit take on Chespin
Sobble = shit take on Mudkip
Even the main characters manage to be the worse in all the series in terms of appearance.
I know it's based on Britain and it's currently a shitty place but don't make it so realistic that the game is equally full of ass.
They couldn't take a gander at being based and going you know what fuck it lets get evil in this bitch for once
Fire - a pupper that ends up as Cerberus = 3 headed hellhound
Water - a seahorse that turns into a Kelpie = retarded ass water horse for the river styx
Grass a shitty chicken or crappy snake that ends up as basilik/medusa
No let gets these sad fucks and just get a region that might not suck ass.
Fuck this game, it better have lions at least since there obviously is no signs of dragons.

You might be an actual retard if you're still arguing with this about me, especially since I already did what you're trying to tell me to do ages ago. Fuck off retard nigger.

I like how you completely ignored the Tiger Mask part because you know it BTFOs whatever bullshit Kool-Aid you're drinking.

>Nope
Artist is expert if his field.

thank god we hit the bump limit

Bitch

None of those were intended features

When 255/511 below HP recovery moves fail.
I’ve been wondering for 20 years how my friend’s Mewtwo failed Recovery 2x in a row allowing me to beat him.
