When did pokemon jump the shark design wise? was it a particular gen, was it a particular evolution line/s?
>>57187301>jump the sharkAha, I understood that reference
it jumped the shark when you guys started realizing that pokemon looks "too japanese" now despite calling globalization the devil

>>57187301Gen I>conceptually simplistic creatures, mostly animals, composed from multiple different animalsGen II>even more simplistic designs, particularly in form as well as content, and realism sacrificed for cartoonishnessGen III>massive conceptual depth and highly distinctive form, but not "overly" detailedGen IV>even more visual detail, visual uniqueness emphasized even more
>>57187301Gen 4 charizard clearsWhat point is this image even trying to make, it made Garchomp worse and less interesting in every way
>>57187475>gen 1-3 doesn’t contain a single bad designThey made a circle with an angry face on it

>>57187301I dont know of a single gen 4 pokemon who isn't gay or trans coded
>>57187301Every generation has good designs, even the ones I hate, I don't know what criteria you want me to answer with
>>57188235unova
>>57188127>codedMeds, now.
>>57187515>lists a bunch of good designsevery time>>57188014yeah, they made a memorable ambiguous monster instead of drawing a generic thing with a pokeball pattern on it.
>>57188625>Ambiguous monsterIt's a pokeball with a face
>>57188014>>57188631Hard to complain when it's the reason we got the real beauty that is Hisuian Voltorb.
>>57188660>Hisuian Voltorb>real beautyAre you being sarcastic?
>>57188631yeah, they made a memorable ambiguous monster instead of drawing a generic thing with a pokeball pattern on it.
They didnt jump the shark at all, they just got better screen and more pixels and actual colors to work with.
>>57187515>Golduck>Graveler>Hypno>Ledian>Forretress>Kirlia>GardevoirThese are all good designs though.
>>57187301The objective answer is Gen 5.
>>57187301Generation V
>>57189489>generic circle with generic eyes on it>somehow not genericKill yourself
