Sensing some errors here.
It's ambidextrous.

Other Pokemon can breathe fire, Marowak needs some kind of superpower of its own.
Just odd since the Black and White front and back sprites are suppose to be the same exact same position. So in a battle if you look at someone else's screen, suddenly Marowak is holding the bone in a different position compared to the other screen.
I chuckled.

Maybe they didn't want the bone blocking its face in either of the poses?
I don't think so cause look at these.
It's either an error or something else I can't think of. Or maybe they actually went with the whole "ambidextrous", but just don't look at someone else's screen.

Yellow's anime-inspired artstyle was soooo gooooood.
Red and Blue look like bleugh, though.

Yeah those Red and Blue sprites sure haven't held up at all. Yellow actually has a ton of sprites that are my favorite out of all Pokemon games.

I've always wondered what happened with Red/Green/Blue sprites. Were they drawn without reference?

I noticed. Going to get it up once I get home. Thank you!
As for the game music stuff: I've been on hiatus for several weeks. I'm going to go locate the HarmoKnight soundtrack and try to identify who did what, as well as some other stuff.

Just these. Everything else is nightmare fuel.

No more really needs to be said. Western R/B got nothing on that.

Yeah, there were some gems. The Snorlax and Scyther ones are breathtakingly good.

Nah, they're all pretty amazing. There's plenty of derp in the original Japanese R/G sprites though.

We're falling behind the old thread. We had our first old sprites discussion in around half as many pages the first time. :I

R/B sprites are rather hideous, in my opinion.
What's wrong with this one? It looks imposing and monsterous. They are monsters, remember.

No one said that monsters can't be cute.

mon·ster/ˈmänstər/
Noun:
An imaginary creature that is typically large, ugly, and frightening.
I guess "typically" is the word that saves you.
No one said everything has to be cute.

It doesn't look like a coconut tree like it should; it looks like a bunch of disfiguired disembodies heads nailed to a blob. If Exeggutor looked like that in the anime or later generations, I'd cut it some slack; but it does not, and I will not.
Exactly what I was referring to earlier in this thread.

I sometimes wonder whether I'll ever get a chance at pulling the exact same thing... in Singapore.

That Exeggutor looks nothing like it's meant to, but I'm not sure that's a bad thing. Exeggutor's proper design never really appealed to me; needed arms.
In related news, I've managed to spell Exeggutor's name right three times on the spin. A new record!

It looks like a living coconut tree leaning forward and leering over you, ready to attack. You can't see a lot of the trunk because the limited real estate is better spent on the faces.

That reminds me - ever had a name that you kept misspelling?
ScraftyDevil
Banned
I use to misspell Exterminieren until I realized it was a Doctor Who reference.
Oh, you mean Pokémon? I thought Krokorok was Krokrokrok for the first few weeks of the English Gen V names leaking.
What about pronounceation? For the longest time, I didn't if it was pronounced conk-EL-durr or CONK-el-durr.

It's not a difficult name, you're just biased against German. -_-

Think I should get into adorably misspelling things?
I've spelled it correctly in the past. I think.
I prefer short names. Actually, people often misspell my first name even though it's only three letters long :/
I'm generally quite good with spelling, even Pokémon names. Repeated letters is what often trips me up. Like Ratatta, or Wobbuffet.
Anyway, how do people think the move contained in TM22 should be written?
Spelling it SolarBeam as in the DS games looks wrong. The only reason stuff like AncientPower and ThunderPunch are camel-cased is because there was a 12-character limit on move names back in the Game Boy days which they never removed. But SolarBeam is only 9 characters. It should either be Solarbeam (as in Base Set Venusaur TCG card) or Solar Beam.

Because it sounded... Cool? At least the Pokémon never got a CamelCase name.
Totally using CamErupt as a nickname now.

So is it a camel that erupts, or is it now a camera? xD

I can't unsee the Poké Ball in Green Hitmonchan.
