Pokemon sequel is under development for DS

Even discounting Drowzee, we have a lot of humanoid Pokemons from the 1st generation. Anybody wants to disprove likes of Jynx, Mr. Mime, Hypno, Alakazam? Hell, Mr. Mime is simply a goddamn mime, he is probably the closest pokemon ever got to being a human-like!

Jynx represents black people?
 
Apparently Jynx can talk normally, but prefers dancing.

Also, they should've kept the Machop family all male. =/

Drowzee is half tapir, half human psychic guy.
Just like Blaziken is half chicken, half fighter.

Edit:Ookami-kun:are you reading my mind? :o

I like how no generation 1 pokemons are considered ugly despite Oddish,Tangela,Digglet etc...
Wait how is Sunkern a better design than Sunflora?
It's a friggin' seed!And Sunflora is a cool sunflower.
God I disagree with so much things on that list.

Humanoid design does not = bad design. Bad design=bad design.

There was a 4Chan thread a couple of months back on the subject of ugly Pokemon, and I think this image does a pretty good job pointing out all the ugly mutha fuckas :lol

The only things I wouldn't agree on are Magmar (he's awesome), and the Regi's, Rhyperior and Magnezone are ugly as sin. AND PROBOPASS GOOD LORD. And to prove I'm not LOLNOSTALGIA (whatever that means), I always hated Jynx's design, for what it's worth...

I think that's a bit too hard on some of the new guys. Like, Abomnsnow and Snover are awesome. Same with Drapion, Diftblim, Luxray, Bastiodon, Electivire...

Moonduck (Cresselia) is not crossed? Shaymin not crossed? A bunch of Gen 1 not crossed?

LOLOLOL

See, my whole problem is that modern Pokemon-games seem to introduce Pokemon that humanoid that they´re becoming sexualized, see Guardevoir (and dont google it >_<). That was never a problem with Blue/Red-gen Pokemon.

Man I would kill for a physical version of Hidden Power in Gen V
Sure, if it maxes at 61/65 (along with the normal Hidden Power). Better nerf it as much as possible before Technician.

I'm tired of Hidden Power honestly. The bias for special attackers is bad enough but just the idea of a free type attack is annoying. Maybe I'm alone on this.

Machoke and Jynx are sexualized too,more than Guardevoir.
How can you judge pokemons on Fan art?I mean you'll always see the sickest things in fanart but they're not official so who cares?
Guardevoir doesn't even have a body:it's just a dress.
 
Here's a good one (dunno who did it)

Yeah I don't think that's a hand on the grass one. Way too awkward. He actually made the pig look decent and I was not expecting that.

I really like this actually. Well done!

What I have noticed about all the interpreted designs that portray the curved part as a crest on the back of the head, though, is that it makes them look extremely vague about what kind of animal it's supposed to be. I mean you could claim it to be a lizard but I think it's much clearer that it's part of a bird beak and those that show it as part of the animal's beak just make that much more sense than some crest.

This is the first mock-up that I can actually fully get behind. Here's hoping we get something as nice as this.

It's a fucking bunch of rotten eggs with eyes...Don't even get me started on the cracked one in the back.

Gen 1 has the WORST abominations ever made and its gets a pass because people think the things they thought were cool when they were 5 are still awesome.

Why do eggs are grass pokemon anyway?
And why do they turn into a palmtree with a leaf stone?!
It doesn't make any sense.
 
Hey lets put some eyes on a Pokeball and call it a Pokemon!

Such a good idea they did it twice!

You've gotta be a real smug asshole to call Gen 1 "perfect".
 
I'm expecting the water one to be the best looking, based on the silhouettes, followed by grass. Not expecting much from the fire pig.
Also, last night I had a dream about Gen V, and there were only a handful of new Pokémon and you had to trade certain Pokémon from the other games to unlock them. The graphics were like the Gameboy games, but with a GBA palette.

Poochyena and Mightyena ugly? wtf

Too forgiving with Gen 1, just right with Gen 2 for the most part, and too harsh on Gen 3. Gen 4 has the oddest choices by far (Lucario's ugly but Probopass is cool? :lol) but I do think they have a lot of ugly stuff, particularly evolutions.

It is totally a nostalgia thing that they will defend to the death.

Exeggute is awesome. It looks like he's been in a lot of battles and has the scars to prove it. You can bust one open but it will still keep fighting.

But wasn't it trippy when you went to the Power Plant, thought you found an item, and then BAM it's a Pokemon. It's the Pokemon version of those treasure chest mimics that are in every RPG.

I think a lot of the admiration for gen 1 Pokemon is nostalgic, but a lot of people are drawn to their more simplistic and streamlined designs. Not to mention even though there are nearly 500 Pokemon, there are still many usable Pokemon from gen 1 when it comes to competitive battling or just making it through the main story.
 
It's moreso a "seek comfort through familiarity" kind of thing. Gen I and II have a larger proportion of Pokemon that physically look like real-life animals.

People like Gen 1 Pokeymanz because those are the Pokeymanz of their childhood. Just like current fans will be bitching about how Gen IV was the pinnacle of Pokeyman designs when Gen VIII is announced.

Sky Form redeemed Shaymin.

I'm saying this right now: I love most of the Gen 4 designs. :P

Bushrat is horrible.

Bushreindeer is awesome.

*looks at Charizard porn*
*looks at Nidoking/queen porn*
*looks at Rhydon porn*
*looks at the abundance of Machoke porn*

Hell, those looked creepier compared to Gardevior.
 
i have nostalgia for old pokemon games because that's when they were still new and fun
and i have open hostility for new pokemon games because it's all the same shit over and over

but i still think new pokemon designs are (usually) better than old pokemon designs

:smug:
