I somehow feel strange to the fact that i'm all stoked for Pokemon Y and yet i'm a grown adult.
I've been playing as a child red/blue/yellow and the other generations that followed but i missed black and white...hope i didn't lose it.

God, I haven't played Pokemon in years. How is the series going? Getting batter or stale?

The gameplay has definitely improved however the art style and new Pokémon designs are pretty ****.

It's usually something people who are nostalgic about gen I says, I have no idea if this is the case of GodWood, but generally the Pokémon hasn't faltered in my opinion.

The new Pokémon designs are pretty great though. I'm not nostalgic about Gen 1 hell there is a lot of **** in gen 1.

Too often people dismiss criticism of the new Pokémon designs with claims of 'nostalgia' despite there being a distinct aesthetic change from generation three onwards.

Designs in generations one and two were much more simple, softer and/or more 'animal' like. Generation three onwards however favoured more blocky, sharp and complex designs. Now obviously there's some silly designs in generation one and two and some decent designs in the later generations however overall I prefer the earlier aesthetic.

Yeah, the metal orb with magnets and the brown penis-Pokémon sticking put of the ground were totally more animal like.
Not to mention the Pokéball pokémon.

No, perhaps there was a change, but it has never been for the worse.

I am very nostalgic about Gen one, (and 2 in part) nothing will ever compare to Charizard for me, but that doesn't mean I have to dislike th enew Pokémon.

A comparison between the two styles:

Generation I legendaries:



Generation V legendaries:

[Knight of Dane]

It all abounds in taste. Personally the only legendaries I dislike by design are those dudes on clouds from Black and White, but that's mostly because they are three copy/pasted pokemon with different elements.

I don't see anything wrong in any of your examples. Mewtwo is just as obscure as any of those in the bottom picture.

Besides, there is also Shaymin, it looks like a Hedgehog alright.

My point is that there are good and worse in all generations. ****ing about the new generations discredits the old ones too.

[EarthboundNess]

There's solid and crap designs in each generation. The exact ratio of each is all down to your opinion.

For example, I'm rather fond of most of the newest designs, and 4th gen is my favourite. Come at me bro.

They all look freakin' awesome with full 3D models anyway.

[Knight of Dane]

I loved Kanto and Johto, played Hoenn but wasn't as impressed. Sinnoh was where I took a skip, but probably also because I had no DS. Didn't really enjoy Platinum when I did anyway.

Loved White 2, never played the first B/W

So far I love Y

What this discussion is about is the fact that one's preferences for the older generations is not rooted in 'nostalgia' but actual aesthetic appreciation for the original style.

They are the perfect example of what I dislike about new Pokémon. They're blocky, angular, needlessly complex and look like nothing.

Mewtwo on the other hand is a perfect example of what I liked about the original aesthetics; simple, two-colour design, appearance gives insight to its bio-tech origins all the while still looking like an animal.

Besides, there is also Shaymin, it looks like a Hedgehog alright.

Need I quote myself a second time.

My point is that there are good and worse in all generations. ****ing about the new generations discredits the old ones too.

This makes absolutely no sense.

Obviously there is good and bad in all generations however OVERALL I find the earlier aesthetics more preferable than the later ones.

I'm sorry but nothing can beat a lvl99 Cyndocril's last transformation. Tyranasaur? That was a beast.

The game is alright though I had forgotten the gayness of pokemon.

A Michael Jackson look alike requests the presence of 5 children for non descript purposes, lured by the promise of pokemon.

A girl follows someone she's only just met into a dense forest, based solely on the belief that 'something exciting' may happen around them.

And a kid who frequently bursts into spontaneous dance decides that the best way to socialise with new people is to give them terrible nicknames, created from a mixture of the first letter of their name and gangster stereotypes.

How did you possibly come to this conclusion?
