Plus its luchador outfit is ugly

burnt bane
#

before changing it sneakily to belt

mild furnace
#

IT WAS A TYPO

#

I'M FINE WITH THE FACT THAT IT'S MORBIDLY OBESE

wicked onyx
#

HES COOL

wicked onyx
mild furnace
#

OH I WAS THINKING OF PIGNITE

#

NO, EMBOAR IS COOL

burnt bane
#

BRO

mild furnace
#

PIGNITE IS THE WORST

burnt bane
#

🤦‍♂️

wicked onyx
#

BRUH

mild furnace
burnt bane
#

the worst? no

mild furnace
#

Yes

wicked onyx
#

Mmmmm no

mild furnace
#

Bruh Emboar is the best

wicked onyx
#

Bad probably

quartz locust
#

Basculin is objectively the worst.

mild furnace
#

I was thinking of pignite

burnt bane
#

but yeh its not as phenomenal as the rest of the line

wicked onyx
mild furnace
#

Drizzile is ok. 🙂

wicked onyx
#

No

#

NO

quartz locust
burnt bane
mild furnace
#

IDk, everyone says it's emo but isn't that just true with all middle evos?

burnt bane
#

why do we always get back to hating either gen 5 or 8 in this discord 😂

wicked onyx
#

WHAT IS THIS

dusk schooner
#

I think Ken Sugimori himself said Basculin was an afterthought

burnt bane
#

i kinda like the water line from galar

wicked onyx
#

Its wasted potential tbh

quartz locust
burnt bane
#

tbf the galar starter trio isnt awful, i just dont like rillaboom bc of the big ass drum

dusk schooner
#

I don't mind Drizzile, but Inteleon is my least favourite pokemon of all time currently

mild furnace
mild furnace
quartz locust
mild furnace
#

Rillaboom with the long hair was not a good design choice. 😦

burnt bane
#

look at this

dusk schooner
#

Rillaboom has awesome rockstar hair

burnt bane
#

at this

mild furnace
#

Yes, drummers have long hair usually, but it just doesnt fit

burnt bane
#

the only change is that rillaboom has its drum in his hair

dusk schooner
#

Cinderace is up there for me for being bad too

burnt bane
#

so much better already

mild furnace
#

I liked how suave and cool Inteleon is

#

Then I met you guys

wicked onyx
#

Cool

#

C o o l

burnt bane
#

also it snipes people

#

with water

mild furnace
#

I mean if that's not cool af I don't know what is

quartz locust
burnt bane
#

but yeh its not the most amazing design, gotta have to say that

dusk schooner
#

Inteleon has too much character for me to realistically believe there's a species of them, and it applies to alot of pokemon really

quartz locust
#

Inteleon is much too gangly for me, the proportions are off. 😦

quartz locust
wicked onyx
#

It has penis fingers

mild furnace
#

I agree, making its proportions correct would fix its design SO MUCH and then people could appreciate it for the James Bond lizard it is

quartz locust
#

Although Gen VIII introduced my favourite Pokémon since Gen III, Appletun. 😄

mild furnace
#

And HAVE YOU SEEN SNIPE SHOT'S ANIMATION

dusk schooner
burnt bane
#

i think the biggest problem with intelleon isnt really how skinny its limbs are, its how his pattern stuff makes it look even skinnier

burnt bane
#

so they become more simple, cartoony and cute

#

not just pokemon, look at most big anime, or cartoon

dusk schooner
#

That is also true. I don't consider Inteleon a bad character design, but it's a bad design for a base species of creature.

wicked onyx
#

I eish they kept it at like gen 5 levels of good but nooo

mild furnace
quartz locust
dusk schooner
#

Well, we technically have a kangaroo, who is also a dinosaur

burnt bane
quartz locust
dusk schooner
#

Neither do I

mild furnace
#

Me neither

#

Kangaskhan was a weak atttempt at shoehorning a kangaroo into its design

dusk schooner
#

Kangaskhan/Breloom fusion for kangaroo, that one's for free you guys can have that

wicked onyx
mild furnace
#

Because in gen 1 everything had to be part animal

lofty aurora
#

Oh we dissing gen 8 designs?

burnt bane
lofty aurora
#

Cause if so

burnt bane
mild furnace
burnt bane
#

we already dissed intelleon

dusk schooner
#

Gen 1's pokemon are definitely more standard RPG designs. At this point in the series, they could afford to keep it simple

mild furnace
# lofty aurora

Yeah we went over it already. WE GET IT, IT HAS ANOREXIA. Move on, jesus.

dusk schooner
#

Like, you have the Slime, the robots, the plants, etc etc

lofty aurora
#

Yes but that plushie freaks me out

quartz locust
#

I actually think there's a lot of charm to them. Kanto Pokémon have a lot of texture whereas newer ones don't. 😦

mild furnace
dusk schooner
#

Kanto Pokemon are simple but effective. I like the newer ones too though

burnt bane
#

can we for a change talk about good gen8 designs?

mild furnace
#

inteleon plushie: 👁️👄👁️

lofty aurora
#

I like that different gens have different art directions

wicked onyx
quartz locust
#

Even though Lillipup isn't a recent design, it to me is a symbol of things wrong with a lot of the designs after it. 😦

dusk schooner
quartz locust
#

No texture at all, even though it's clearly supposed to be fluffy. 😅

#

It's still adorable, but it looks like a toy rather than a creature. 😦

mild furnace
#

I like how they tackled the fossils in Galar. It's a nice hyperboized cartoony take on how earlier paleontologists mixed up fossils from different dinosaurs on accident.

lofty aurora
#

The birds are cool

burnt bane
#

dont hate on the lilipup line now 🔫

lofty aurora
#

Orbeetle is also a kinda neat buge

dusk schooner
#

Orbeetle is awesome

mild furnace
quartz locust
#

Orbeetle is cool but I really hate Dottler. 😦

burnt bane
#

runerigus 🙏

quartz locust
#

It looks like a Mario enemy rather than a Pokémon. 😢

mild furnace
#

The pokedex entry even says it died out due to overhunting

quartz locust
#

Runerigus is a fantastic design. 😄

mild furnace
#

I liked dottler.

burnt bane
#

dracopult 🙏

lofty aurora
#

The dex entries are made up by cara liss tho

wind topaz

#

Blipbug's really long eyes creep me out. 😂

burnt bane
#

snom 🙏

mild furnace
quartz locust
#

SNOM.

mild furnace
#

SNOM

lofty aurora
#

Yeah

quartz locust
#

I would kill and die for Snom. ❤️

wind topaz
#

Frosmoth

mild furnace
#

SNOM IS AMAZING

lofty aurora
#

I like the creepy monkey

dusk schooner
#

Zarude?

lofty aurora
#

With the vines yeah

mild furnace
#

Me too

dusk schooner
#

Zarude is the best grass monkey, which is weird that we have multiple

burnt bane
#

zamazenta ohyes

mild furnace
#

I actually have a shiny hacked one

quartz locust
#

I think Zarude's painfully forgettable. 😦

burnt bane
#

both zamazenta forms are amazing

mild furnace
#

Well it's better than Infernape at least.

quartz locust
#

However, should I get one I will call it Mojo Jojo. 🙂

mild furnace
#

ZACIAN

wind topaz
#

Ew

lofty aurora
#

I like indeedee and the fact they are midgets

mild furnace
#

I like zacian more than zamazenta

burnt bane
#

zacian without the sword looks quite meh tbh

dusk schooner
#

Zarude is cool to me because it has the feral ape look, which is fairly accurate and rarely represented

burnt bane
#

with the sword its really nice

mild furnace
mild furnace
quartz locust
#

Indeedee is just Audino but with horns. 😂

mild furnace
#

Exactly.

lofty aurora
#

Yeah but its cute

burnt bane
#

i like the butler and maid aspect there tho

mild furnace
#

I really don't get all the love for it

digital loom
#

bruh

burnt bane
#

like sometimes design aspects are also good to consider

mild furnace
#

Plus its typing is trash

digital loom
#

i actually really like modern designs and i think older mons are under-designed

mild furnace
#

I don't know, just the design is too simple and bland.

lofty aurora
#

Also I like how they made one form for singles and one for doubles

mild furnace
#

Seems like a design that was cranked out

quartz locust
#

Can we all agree that Appletun is supreme? 🙂

mild furnace
#

Yes

quartz locust
#

Anyone who doesn't agree is banned. 😄

mild furnace
#

obviously

lofty aurora
#

Tini dragon apple

digital loom
#

yes

wicked onyx
dusk schooner
#

I like Appletun, but I liked Flapple more because it's an uggo

mild furnace
#

Ew

wet flax
#

gmax appletun

mild furnace
#

Imagine liking flapple

lofty aurora
#

Ew not the g max tho

digital loom
#

i dont like zacian without the sword

lofty aurora
#

G max appledudes are bad

mild furnace
#

Yeah the gmax sucks

quartz locust
#

The G-Max is bad. 😦

dusk schooner
#

Why are they the same

digital loom
#

zamazenta without the shield isnt bad

burnt bane
wet flax
lofty aurora
#

Im not a fan of most g maxes tbh

wicked onyx
#

I hate how their both the same

quartz locust
#

I like how Flapple is literally just a Bakugan. 😂

burnt bane
#

Flapple is like those uh

#

Bakugan yeh

wicked onyx
#

I like the gmax well enough but its just so lazy how their both the same

digital loom
#

i really like the kanto starter gmaxes

burnt bane
#

I don't like it

quartz locust
digital loom
#

lapras too

#

kingler

burnt bane
#

Bro Gmax forms are amazing

lofty aurora
#

I lile blastoise, charizard is ok but the wings look goofy

digital loom
#

grimmsnarl

dusk schooner
#

Applin and Flapple do the whole "Wyrm in the apple" aspect well, Appletun drops it which is unfortunate

lofty aurora
#

Venusaur is bad

burnt bane
digital loom
#

they feel ancient

quartz locust
digital loom
#

gmax venusaur is one of my favourite gmaxes

wind topaz
#

Mega Pokémon had much better designs that g Max

burnt bane
#

I don't think there's any Gmax id consider bad

lofty aurora
#

Personally just think its ugly

digital loom
burnt bane
#

B..besides rillaboom😂🥴

mild furnace
#

Gmax snom

digital loom
#

they look too modern imo

lofty aurora
#

Stupid tall cat

mild furnace
#

Make Gmax Snom gamefreak gun1

wind topaz
#

Useless long cat

quartz locust
#

Eevee is a really bad G-Max. Like really bad. 😦

digital loom
#

gmaxes have atmosphere

quartz locust
#

Gengar too. 😢

lofty aurora
#

Eevee too yeah

digital loom
#

they feel like kauiju

wind topaz
#

Charizard

dusk schooner
#

I liked Perrserker, probably more than all the other meowths and persians

lofty aurora
#

Eevee is the wprst gmax by far

digital loom
#

gengar has an amazing gmax

lofty aurora
#

Because

mild furnace
#

I don't know, I'm not really a fan of G-Max Kingler.

lofty aurora
#

G max eevee doesn't even have a diff design to eevew

digital loom
#

i really like kingler

quartz locust
wicked onyx
lofty aurora
#

The fur got messier

mild furnace
wind topaz
mild furnace
#

I meant to send this when we were talking about snom

wind topaz
#

The floor here is made of floor

digital loom
#

they have that atmosphere that i much prefer to megas which are basically another evo

quartz locust
# dusk schooner Why's that?

It's just Meowth but bigger with ugly red eyes and a boring monotype. The Viking idea was cool but they don't really do enough with it. 😦

lofty aurora
#

I mean for that matter you can just use dynamax

quartz locust
#

G-Max Lapras should have been a Viking longboat like the beta Pokémon.

lofty aurora
#

Mons are already monsters so dyna any mon is a kaiju

mild furnace
wind topaz
#

Pocket monsters

dusk schooner
#

What is Mega Lapras supposed to even be

wind topaz
#

The titanic

mild furnace
#

A bigger lapras

lofty aurora
#

A ship ig

#

With music notes fsr

wind topaz
#

For no reason

quartz locust
dusk schooner
#

I guess because on the titanic the bands kept playing or something? Idk

digital loom
lofty aurora
#

I like gmax duraludon even tho I genuinely dislike most gmaxes and base duraludon

digital loom
#

its because lapras sings iirc

mild furnace
#

On the titanic the lobsters that were about to be cooked were set free

quartz locust
digital loom
#

dont they have a moaning sort of voice

mild furnace
#

Like a whale

digital loom
#

yeah

wind topaz
#

Lapras doesn’t sing

lofty aurora
#

Duraludon is one of the few gmaxes that make use of the giant aesthetic well

dusk schooner
#

Duralodon looks like a lighter

quartz locust
mild furnace
#

Duraludon looks bad, and looks slightly good when it's gmax.

lofty aurora
#

Garbage is probably my favourite g max

burnt bane
#

Okay were back to hating gen8 ot seems

wicked onyx
burnt bane
#

Let's hate on basic ass gen1 designs nowohyes

mild furnace
#

Duraludon looks so stupid when it's not gmax

#

And derpy

lofty aurora
#

Altho the dex saying that its toys are "condensed gas that just so happens to look like toys" is very dumb

wind topaz
#

I dislike the g max, it makes no sense for it to become a building

digital loom
#

what

#

its based off of the shard

#

and also mecha godzilla

mild furnace
dusk schooner
mild furnace
#

Machamp

lofty aurora
#

See I think its the opposite

mild furnace
#

Just Machoke with 4 arms and tan lips

burnt bane
#

gotta love my team consisting of a pile of sludge, my 3 magnets together, a simple fcking bull thing with 3 tails (wow now its special)

lofty aurora
#

Gmax dural was likely designed first

lofty aurora
#

And they didn't know what to do for the base form

burnt bane
#

Rock with arms woww

dusk schooner
#

He's a cool dude

wind topaz
#

Seal

quartz locust
#

G-Max Corviknight is pretty boring too. 😦

lofty aurora
#

It is

dusk schooner
quartz locust
#

Seel is cute. 😦

burnt bane
#

Really boring tho

#

Like really, really boring

wicked onyx
#

AND TUAROS CAUSE FUCKING BOUFFALANT GETS SO MUCH HATE AND PEOPLE WORSHIP FUCKING TUAROS

quartz locust
#

The name is incredibly lazy. 😢

wicked onyx

Rant out of the way

lofty aurora
#

Im not a big fan of fearow, spearow is cute and fearow is just kinda ugly

burnt bane

The design as well blaq

@wind topaz RSE Dex entries for lapras

People have driven Lapras almost to the point of extinction. In the evenings, this Pokémon is said to sing plaintively as it seeks what few others of its kind still remain.

#

The Pidgey line is pretty boring, it just gets bigger and grows more hair

lofty aurora
#

Eh

burnt bane
#

You don't mind that design being simple, but then hate on other designs for being simple?

mild furnace
lofty aurora
#

I dont like pidgeotto but pidgey and pidgept are fine

quartz locust
digital loom
#

Sun

Its high intelligence enables it to comprehend human speech. When it's in a good mood, it sings in its beautiful voice.
wind topaz
lofty aurora
#

Well no one can use it anymore amirite

dusk schooner
#

I think with it being the first in the series, gen 1 isn't as bad to me, they've got charm despite their simplicity, and it works at that point in the franchise. It allowed for the future games to build upon it

wicked onyx
lofty aurora
#

See the thing w design complexity is like

digital loom
#

Sword dex entry for lapras

A smart and kindhearted Pokémon, it glides across the surface of the sea while its beautiful song echoes around it.
lofty aurora
#

Their designs had to be simpler in gen 1 bc they needed to work with a gameboy sprite

wind topaz
#

Yes

lofty aurora
#

And similarly recebt designs are made with 3D angles and animated models in mind

wind topaz
#

But gen 2 had the same deal

digital loom
#

so did gen 3

quartz locust
#

I think some designs are artificially complex though. Like a lot of Sinnoh designs (which on the whole, I like) added a lot of stripes, Hoenn Pokémon had a lot of weird rings and so on. Whereas new ones just go abstract, like Ultra Beasts. 😅

digital loom
#

compared to gen 7/8

wind topaz
#

I think sprites are larger in gen 3, plus they have a lot more color

digital loom
#

my favourite games are USUM

lofty aurora
lofty aurora
quartz locust
lofty aurora
#

SM over UsUm any day

burnt bane
#

Every game has its good and bad parts, and the good and bad designed mons

#

I don't think its justifiable to hate on 1 specific region tho

quartz locust
#

The ratios differ though. 😂

dusk schooner
#

Games like USUM make the DLCs feel like a better choice for how to do things now

lofty aurora
burnt bane
#

and then defend it with like oh yehhh, its gen 1, first time, its good that they're simple

#

they still look bad now

lofty aurora
#

Honestly my biggest issue w gen 1 is that the map is like

dusk schooner
#

I don't hate most of the gen 8 pokemon

lofty aurora
#

Really boring

quartz locust
wind topaz
#

“It’s their first 3D game guys, I’m sure they’ll improve it in the future”

dusk schooner
#

I actually love alot of them

burnt bane
#

The amount of thought that gets put into some designs from the later gen is also amazing to think off, but people blaq tend to ignore that

quartz locust
#

Kanto's map really is awful. 😢

lofty aurora
#

Which is sad bc Kanto lets you explore a ton

dusk schooner
#

Kanto's map runs on how Iconic it is, and that's about it

lofty aurora
#

You just don't have what to explore in the first place lol

quartz locust
#

It doesn't help that like 20% of Alola's Pokémon were Ultra Beasts.

wind topaz
#

Kanto runs on how the Pokémon company is forcing it down everyone’s throats

quartz locust
#

The rest of them I love, even Crabominable. 😄

lofty aurora
#

Egg crab is funny

dusk schooner
#

Crabomination

burnt bane
#

Eh in the end you can't change someone's opinion ofc

dusk schooner
#

Sure you can, just yell at them

burnt bane
#

But I love the ubs, they look odd but I mean

wind topaz
lofty aurora
#

The lore is literally "Crabrawler bravely went to train in the mountains, then just got terribly lost"

burnt bane
#

Aliens, other dimension, ofc they're not your typical mons

lofty aurora
#

I like all the UBs

burnt bane
#

I'm glad that gf didn't just make pokemon-like mons for other-dimension mons

wind topaz
#

I think it makes sense for UBs to look so strange

mild furnace
#

Bouffalant is one of my favorite pokemon along with snom and dracozolt and kyogre.

burnt bane
#

But they went all out with the crazy part

mild furnace
lofty aurora
#

In what other franchise would I ever see a muscle girl mosquito alien lol

mild furnace
#

I think poipoole at least looks like an actual pokemon

wind topaz
#

Xurkitree

dusk schooner
#

I was hoping Poipole would look like Frieza or something when it evolved, rather than a bug

mild furnace
#

Ew

#

Nihilego is my favoritre

#

then blacephalon

wind topaz
dusk schooner
#

Exactly

lofty aurora
#

Screm crab

wind topaz

Black hole

lofty aurora
#

Other than the bee aesthetic

wind topaz
lofty aurora
#

Because they are bees?

crude cedar
#

B E E S

dusk schooner
#

Naganadel should've kept the big head and tossed planet destroying energy bombs

lofty aurora
#

You need new eyes if you think they look similaar at all

burnt bane
#

I love the needle aspect

#

And it just looks really cool👀

mild furnace
#

Needle

wind topaz
#

You need new eyes if you think they don’t look similaar at all

mild furnace
crude cedar
#

they just have the same color when one is shiny they dont look that similar

lofty aurora
#

Again literally the only similarity is that they are based on bees

#

So they have stripes and a stinger

crude cedar
#

naganadel is a bee?

mild furnace
#

What are you talking about? Same positioning, same needle, same shaped body, both really spiky

lofty aurora
#

But literally everything else in the design is different

lofty aurora
#

Ah yes same positioning in this one mid-animation screenshot

crude cedar
#

one has a lab needle and th eother one has a bee's

#

body kinda

mild furnace
#

YES SO DIFFERENT

crude cedar
#

and wdym by spiky

misty acorn
#

they both have heads

#

cringe

crude cedar
#

lmao

mild furnace
#

They have the same shaped and sized body

lofty aurora
#

Naganadel doesn't have legs, has actual arms with claws, drahon wibgs, an entirely different head, needle stibger

mild furnace
#

They both have three needles on their abdomens

burnt bane
#

This is like blaq explaining how scolipede is the same as beedril lol

lofty aurora
#

Beedril doesnt

crude cedar
#

di you see that they both have less than zero knee

#

cringe

lofty aurora
#

Bee has 1 stinger and 4 limbs/drills

wind topaz
#

Those are actually labeled as stingers too

crude cedar
#

not knuckles

mild furnace
#

Yeah and so does naganadel

#

they're three ofthem

#

on the torso

wicked onyx
burnt bane
#

Yeh I still can't see them being the same design lol

mild furnace
#

WHAT ARE YOU KIDDING ME

wicked onyx
#

especially buzzSWOLE

#

and guzzlord

wind topaz
#

They’re definitely different, but they have a lot of similarities

burnt bane
#

In that case every single bird mon is the same

crude cedar
#

just remove the shiny color and their not the same

misty acorn
#

The only ultra beasts I like are Nihilego and the christmas tree. And the poison one I guess, but I foget that that one exists 99% of the time

crude cedar
#

like i c what you mean but their not the same

lofty aurora
#

The only similarities are that they are based on bees so they have stripes and stingers

burnt bane
#

Nihilego best ub

#

Hands down

lofty aurora
#

Hard for me to pick

#

I like all of them

wind topaz
#

It’s still weird that Lusamine looks similar to Pheromosa

dusk schooner
#

My favourite is Buzzwole

crude cedar
wind topaz
#

That’s some weird coloring on that Weedle

crude cedar
lofty aurora
#

The fact all blood-drinking mosquitos are female elevates Buzzwole's design to me lol

burnt bane
wicked onyx
crude cedar
#

i always saw naganadeleas a mosquito

She strong buge

burnt bane
#

Same as with Guzma and xurkitree

wicked onyx

if you ever start working out just know youll never be as cool as Buzzwole

crude cedar
lofty aurora
#

Guzma doesnt look like xurk

dusk schooner
#

Lillie being dressed to look like Nihlego makes sense

wind topaz
#

Yes

lofty aurora
#

Just has messy white hair

wind topaz
#

People just were theorizing that all the characters would have UB counterparts

#

Before the game came out

mild furnace
#

is solgaleo an ultra beast? also yes pheromosa looks too damn much like lusamine

burnt bane
#

Solgaleo is just a legendary right

dusk schooner
#

Cosmog line are UBs yes

burnt bane
#

They are?

wicked onyx
#

no i dont think

dusk schooner
#

Well they come from a different dimension

#

Just like the other UBs

mild furnace
#

Then how do they know what the sun and moon are

lofty aurora
#

Iirc they are both

wind topaz
#

They’re classified as legends, but the games have also said they’re UBs, so I guess they’re legendary UBs and only called legendary for simplicity

burnt bane
#

I think they are classified as legendaries tho

lofty aurora
#

Lile, if UBs are just regular mons on their respective dimensions it would make sense for there to be legendary ubs

dusk schooner
mild furnace
#

Kartana is so boring

wind topaz

Other dimensions means they don’t have to explain because infinite possibilities

crude cedar

they ARE these things, duh

you dont have to know what an arm is to have one lol

Kartana is awesome

Nihilego best ub no argument

wicked onyx

lofty aurora

I like drawing pheromosa

wicked onyx

buzzwole

crude cedar
#

yea earthquake

mild furnace
#

it's just a mosquito but even scarier

wicked onyx

imagine if the mosquio had to punch you to bleed to suck it lmao

mild furnace

like drain punch?

wicked onyx

just beat the shit out of you and suck the blood out of you unconscious body

crude cedar
#

yea

lofty aurora

Also if I hot this right Phero's hair is meant to be wings (thus roost)

dusk schooner

If thats the case then well uh

Like male gardevoirs

wind topaz
#

Those are canon

#

Female Mr. Mime

wicked onyx
#

ohno

dusk schooner
crude cedar
#

like lopunny is kinda inspired by playboy

wicked onyx
#

female person that hangs around a kindergarten

wind topaz
#

Yeah, but still

#

Female Machamp

dusk schooner
#

I like that Machamp can be female and it's considered normal

crude cedar
#

quality muscle

dusk schooner
#

Because why would an animal need to conform to humanity's ideas of masculinity and femininity. They're just roided out monsters

wind topaz
#

I was talking more about being topless

mild furnace
#

Why is it so based on a human though

crude cedar
#

roided?

dusk schooner
#

Steroids

wind topaz
#

Steroids

crude cedar
#

oh

mild furnace
#

It makes me uncomfortable to see a pokemon that is basically a buff dude be female

wicked onyx
#

i feed my pokemon steriods daily

dusk schooner
mild furnace
crude cedar
#

its a pokemon

mild furnace
#

This is after

crude cedar
#

if you think their human dont play the dang game

mild furnace
#

I DON'T

#

IT'S UNCANNY VALLEY

wicked onyx
#

imagine if you evolved machoke with Like PP up or some shit

lofty aurora
#

It makes me uncomfortable to see humanoid mons in general

mild furnace
#

Same

crude cedar
#

then what are you doing here

mild furnace
#

What do you mean>

mild furnace
#

I think it's pretty reasonable to not like animal monsters that look way too much like humans

crude cedar
#

i hope you are atheist then

lofty aurora
#

Make it so you have to trade machoke with graveler. Machoke steals graveler's extra set of arms and they both evolve

dusk schooner
#

The official pokemon website confirms that Machamp's boxers aren't clothes and are just skin colouration

lofty aurora
#

Wh

crude cedar
#

lmao

dusk schooner
#

So they're completely naked

lofty aurora
#

Thats less bad

crude cedar
#

like every other pokemon?

dusk schooner
#

Exactly

lofty aurora
#

Clothed mons are odd

crude cedar
#

wait

#

the psy ice girl thingie

#

is that clothes

lofty aurora
#

Like stuff like the ugly water lizard starter its fairly clear its just patterns

craggy galleon
#

thats hair

lofty aurora
#

But jynx and stuff like sawk and red sawk

crude cedar
#

yes jyn

#

x

lofty aurora
#

They are straight up clothes

crude cedar
#

odd

#

wait

dusk schooner
#

Jynx is based off a yokai, which is more of a grey area

crude cedar
#

so th ebaby is literally naked when it can have clothes?

mild furnace
wind topaz
#

Jynx is based off Gyaru makeup

crude cedar
#

you said you dont loike humanoid monsters

mild furnace
#

Yes, and?

crude cedar
#

im out

dusk schooner
mild furnace
#

I don't get what you mean at all

#

What does humanoid monsters have anything to do with religion

#

except maybe the onis in japanese culture

lofty aurora
#

I usually dont like mons that aren't subtle with clothes tbh

#

Like say uh

#

Cinderace

#

It literally has shorts

#

Sure its fur patterns and tuffs but

#

Its shorts

wind topaz
#

Machamp too has underwear on

crude cedar
#

there is humanoid monsters in like every religion ik

wind topaz
#

And a belt

wicked onyx
#

i hate cinderace with a burning passion

crude cedar
lofty aurora
#

See on humanoid mons it feels at least less weird bc they are humanoid regardless

dusk schooner
#

Machamp's pants aren't pants

crude cedar
#

ditto does all the work alone

wind topaz
dusk schooner
#

Idk about the belt though, but the black on machoke and machamp is just skin colouration

crude cedar
#

the belt

wind topaz
#

It says Machoke can take off the belt

#

And unleash more power

wicked onyx
wind topaz
#

Like Shadow’s wrist rings

dusk schooner
#

I guess that means it's not part of it's body then. Where it comes from is another matter though

wind topaz
#

In the Sonic games

crude cedar
#

theres a theory that they were added on by humans or something to restrict their power

wicked onyx
#

What power is underneath machamps belt GalaxyFlushed

crude cedar
#

a pp up

wicked onyx
#

pp up

#

wait no

#

that

lofty aurora
#

Iirc sawk can take off its belt too

wicked onyx
dusk schooner
#

From the official pokemon site
"It may look like Machoke and Machamp are wearing underwear, but they’re actually not wearing anything. What looks like underwear is just a pattern. After all, Pokémon don’t wear clothes to begin with, right? ‘It’s not wearing anything!"

crude cedar
mild furnace
#

Why

crude cedar
#

because

mild furnace
#

Ahegao?

#

And ||cum||?

dusk schooner
#

I think that's just lactation

crude cedar
#

so you are triggered by female machamp but not by that?

wicked onyx
wicked onyx
mild furnace
#

Female machamp doesnt

#

Well yeah

#

How do you think eggs are made? 🤨

wicked onyx
#

bruh

mild furnace
#

Cramorants?

dusk schooner
#

Pokemon don't have sex, they play powerpoint presentations and materialize eggs, just like Arceus

crude cedar
#

lmao

mild furnace
#

ditto can fit in all the holes 😏

craggy galleon
#

some pokemon have gender sprites. Could be posible to make a more femenine Machop?

crude cedar
#

also its a child game

wind topaz
#

Not for this game

mild furnace
#

Just give it a bra 🤷

crude cedar
#

i know parrots and bats but its a child game

craggy galleon
#

that

crude cedar
dusk schooner
#

Why does it have to be more feminine, it's not supposed to literally be a person

crude cedar
#

you dont give a bra a female dog

mild furnace
#

It has pecs though 👀

craggy galleon
#

wobbuffet has lipstick

crude cedar
#

skin color i guess

craggy galleon
#

just add a sportsbra pattern on the chest

dusk schooner
#

Because Wobuffet's blue is a decoy, which would make sense to have a more stereotypical gender difference

#

Because it made the thing itself

crude cedar
mild furnace
#

Wobbuffet = Mimikyu?

crude cedar
wicked onyx
#

oengu why are you so obsessed with feminising machamp

crude cedar
mild furnace
#

I'm not, I literally sent one message about it

wicked onyx
crude cedar
#

yea

mild furnace
#

It doesnt

dusk schooner
#

Machamp is perfect just the way she is

mild furnace
#

he or she

wicked onyx
dusk schooner
#

Mostly he, they do have that uneven gender ratio afterall

craggy galleon
#

it maid more sense when no pokemon had gender

mild furnace
#

People have been accepting of nongender since 1991 smh legendaries don't have genders

#

no wait

crude cedar
#

wdym

#

accepting of nongender

dusk schooner
#

I always interpreted Legendaries being genderless as just not knowing that much about the pokemon

#

Since they're rare and all

mild furnace
#

But it's because they're godly

#

I thoguht

crude cedar
#

machamp has godly muscle

dusk schooner
#

Things like Arceus and stuff probably are beyond gender and stuff

crude cedar
#

period

mild furnace
#

craggy galleon

They don't have any most of the time 🤦

dusk schooner
wicked onyx

they just multiply

#

dusk schooner

Do you think a Reuniclus can just split into like, 3 Solosis

wicked onyx
#

crude cedar

yes but two are gonna be blind

crude cedar
lofty aurora

ok fixed my subs for the contest

mild furnace

lofty aurora

my favourite of my subs is probably drifloon/pikachu

wicked onyx
#

LOL

wind topaz
lofty aurora
#

do you not see the necrozma hands, eyes and brain

craggy galleon
#

i seem to remember that it was forbidden to talk about contest submisions while the contest is still on...

mild furnace
#

Not really

mild furnace
crude cedar
mild furnace
#

Ooh

craggy galleon
#

you are right lol. You could campaign for your sprite untill the polls starts XD

lofty aurora
#

AAAAAAA is the true winner regardless

mild furnace
crude cedar
#

its an official beta sprite so no

mild furnace
#

Oh

wind topaz
#

All the beta sprites for those generations are recreations by fans anyways though

crude cedar
#

what?

wind topaz
#

I was pretty straightforward with my statement

crude cedar
#

so its not official?

quartz locust
#

Where did you get that idea from? 😮

wind topaz
#

It basically is, those sprites are recreations made from blurry photos

crude cedar
#

oh

quartz locust
#

Not true at all, they datamined them a couple of years ago. 😂

wind topaz
#

OK, I thought that one was a recreation like many other beta sprites like the beta Johto starters

@quartz locust @wind topaz if you could actually keep this channel being #event-general when I'm away, that'd be great. 👀

They went with the convo like it was nothing lol

I was gonna point out that this wasn't #spriter-general but decided nah, we got 2 mods here

I was literally asleep earlier, however.

Between 4 and 5 PM? 😮

burnt bane
#

Why do you sleep during daytime

fallow bough
#

I don't question your life.

acoustic hare
#

being asleep at 4 pm was the norm for me until one week ago smh

burnt bane
#

I saw a video on Insta about like "me wondering why I can't fall asleep when it's already 1AM"

#

T..that's like the time I go to sleep normally as of latelypain

burnt bane
#

A..as a 13yo?

#

I went to sleep at 9PM when I was 13sadbro

acoustic hare

i would sleep at 8 am 😔

i had a hard time figuring out what some of these fusions were 👀 gen 2 style is not kind to some of these poor designs

#

its so neat to see them tho ohyes

misty acorn
#

I love this contest simply because it gave me a reason to remake some of my favorite sprites in a new style

mild furnace
#

I hate this contest simply because it made me create new fusions but in a new and worse style

crude cedar
#

worse style
no

burnt bane
#

i hate you simply bc its you 🔫

brazen pawn
#

other style

zenith matrix
#

Ang has not made adjustments, the sprites are really far apart...

mild furnace
#

I really don't like gen 2 style

#

I've said it before

wind topaz
#

Ang is a fool

burnt bane
brazen pawn
#

i would even go that far that gen 2 has really cool poses maybe the best in the series

burnt bane
#

yeh the poses are really nice and dynamic

mild furnace
#

yeah but the shading, coloring, and black outline suck and make it look ugly

zenith matrix
brazen pawn
#

it has its charm and sure the limitations sometimes really sucks but it does work for me most of the time

burnt bane
zenith matrix
#

it would, as the image would be shown bigger,
because Discord shrinks anything bigger than x to a fixed width/height

burnt bane
#

wouldnt slightly altering the size give them half pixels/uneven sized pixels or what?

zenith matrix
#

and the sprites themself should be at 2 times scale individually

#

u would be surprised how good ur monitor is at antialiasing

tall moss
#

youre just pointing out flaws in your own software tene 👀

burnt bane

you and your AA

zenith matrix

mild furnace

bombards me with mcafee messages every goddamn second of my life

crude cedar
#

Just saying, I will fiercely defend GSC style sprites 😂

mild furnace
#

It also makes good ideas look horrendous

crude cedar
#

Not really

#

You just have to know how to execute it

#

:F

#

It's a very picky style

burnt bane
#

i mean when compared to gen5 style, gen5 is better for cleaner and better readable sprites

#

doesnt mean that gen2 style sucks

mild furnace
#

Exactly

#

Well to me gen 2 style looks dirty and dark

crude cedar
mild furnace
#

and crammed and complicated

burnt bane
#

||i like gen2 style more than gen3||

tall moss

#

Duel?

burnt bane
#

1 color, 10x10 canvas

mild furnace
#

we already did 24x24

#

I did horribly

burnt bane
#

thankfully i didnt suggest 24x24 then

brazen pawn
#

i actually quite like gen 3 style but from lg fr

lofty aurora
#

for future GSC style sprites, imo the background for the voting should be white rather than transparent. GSC sprites are specifically made to be seen at a white background and as such use techniques that look good only on a white bg, namely the outer pixels on the outline for a smoother transition. On a transparent bg they look very apparent and do the opposite of what they're supposed to

brazen pawn
#

some saphire / rubin sprites look really odd

#

also true aquatic

burnt bane
#

thats a really good point tbh

mild furnace
#

in 10x10

burnt bane
#

when you copy sprites from pokemondb, gen3+ sprites are transparent, but gen 1 and 2 have a white bg as well

First time seeing the contest sprites. Feels like the theme is greatest hits, with a bunch of people just remaking old sprites in the style.

#

Not a bad thing every once in a while, mind you.

wind topaz
#

Guys, you should vote for the sprite that only uses 4 colors

fallen adder
#

nvm. I thought you were saying there was one that didn't use 4

wind topaz
#

Transparency registers as a color

fallen adder
#

If you wanted to be technical then transparency is not a colour. Neither is black and white

quartz locust
#

I had a tough time deciding what to vote for in this one, I really did. 😅

quartz locust
#

No Patrick, Mayonnaise is not a colour. Unamused

fallen adder
#

It does slightly urk me how there is high chance of a remake winning 😅

quartz locust
#

It wasn't technically against the rules this time, I think most of the sprites are remakes too. 😢

fallen adder
#

It wasn't against the rules at all because I didn't think anyone would do it. But when I asked Isaac if we allowed alts of already done sprites, he said he thought it was fine

misty acorn
#

I thought so too. In the end they are all new sprites after all, even if based on old work

brazen pawn
#

true

quartz locust
#

Just realised that none of Cheese's entries are in there. 😦

misty acorn
#

I did remind them to resubmit their stuff 👀

I don't think it should have all been taken out in the first place, just the most recent ones until 3 remained. 😅
