Is Sugimori art as we know it dead? These don't even look the same style
>>58833195
>>58833197They're really ugly yeah
>>58833209Redditmon
>>58833197Sugimori stopped drawing artwork since ORAS.Sun and Moon is All Yusuke Ohmura, no idea for gen 8-9 tho but could still be ohmura
Official art?
Ok, now post the good looking ones.
>>58833195this looks good
>>58833215Yes>>58833217There aren't any as far as I can see
There's something off about the art for Mega Feraligatr that I can't put my finger on...
>>58833217Bax is the only good looking one I fear
>>58833228
>>58833231
Did Sugimori die or something? >>58833216 is the only one that actually looks like it could have been drawn by him
Where did you get these
>2D renders are out Now what's gonna be the new cope for ugly designs being ugly?
>>58833234Hasn't it been conclusively proven that the Gen 9 Sugimori art is traced from 3D models?
>>58833241
>>58833226>baxcalibur with the reverse bear trap but put on backwardsOH NONONONONONONONONONONONO
>>58833214Everyone continued to call it "Sugimori art" because the style has been preserved, but these feel like a big deviation.
>>58833185Why does it look so HAY GUYS :DD
ZA was a mistake
>>58833256This dude is just way too cool
>>58833199the big steppy
>>58833185this has more charisma than the in-game model and I don't know why
>>58833264it's trash
GIVE ME ZYGARDE AND DARKRAI
>>58833268
>>58833241>>58833243best official arts of the megas so far
>>58833283
>>58833238Went from eyesore to OK >>58833262Colors are better. Proportions are much more tolerable when flying though the neck, wings and legs should have been longer >>58833220Yikes >>58833185It looks even worse, There’s no saving this humiliation ritual
>>58833291>Went from eyesore to OK it's still an eyesore
>>58833307the Z-A visual style for models did him DIRTY.I would love to see him in a game with different textures
>>58833316Agreed
>>58833228>even the official stock art is kinoBased CHADnaught
>>58833254It really was. This game is doing as much damage to the brand as Gen 8 did.
The worst looking one imo
Finally an official version of Floette's render
>>58833185PFFT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHA OH NO NO NO
>>58833329God the art looks messy the 3d model actually looks ok compared to this, they cant do shit right
>>58833334
And Zero Aura for last since Garchomp isn't released yet
>>58833262DAMNATION!!!
>>58833347Oops forgot Darkrai, now it's truely done.
>>58833256WHERE IS MY CLAWITZER MEGA EVOLUTION!?
Where's Flygon?
>>58833356Cum leaking bumhole
>>58833216NGL He's growing on me
>>58833197This looks like they just traced the model.
>>58833206>>58833228>>58833241>>58833243>>58833289>>58833307>>58833310>>58833313>>58833344>>58833347my favorite arts. They all depict a new charm to the design harder to see in the models
>>58833220> "It's the kind of tired that sleep can't fix"
>>58833361They are removing water type from every possible mon dudePlus Clawitzer already looks like a mega
Still don't like ZA Megas
>>58833185yeah this is the worst design I've ever seen holy fuckeven palworld designs at its worst are better than this shit
>>58833251this is my favorite
>>58833361>>58833395Let’s be real it’ll just be an inferior Blastoise at best
>>58833320>bright red eyesHE'S NOT FUCKING AROUND
>>58833364It’s too much of a flopped shitter to get a mega
>>5883319799.9% sure this one is a traced model.
>>58833209>Mega Starmie has classic Sugimori shading to illustrate how shiny its body is supposed to beKINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>58833307So is that supposed to be sand? Because it doesn't look anything like sand ingame.
>>58833495It's the energy indide of it
>>58833347hahahaha Zero Aura
>All the cool megas still look cool >All the mid and trash megas still look bad in 2D even though people sweared it's just the 3D that didn't make them justice lol
>>58833310Where are her dicklegs?
>>58833523You can literally see on peeking out at the left behind the "loincloth"
>>58833531That’s nice!
>>58833253love these dudes
>>58833209why is he doing the nae nae?
>>588332640 remains equal to 0.
>>58833361wait for legends hoenn and hope it takes place in the mega timeline
>>58833197Sugimori stopped doing all of the art by Gen 7. Ohmura did the Pokemon art that gen, which is why is looks bland and flat. I don't know who's doing it now, but it's either an evolve style Sugimori had two decades plus on, or somebody else. I'm assuming somebody else, at least for most of the art, since there's some that are definitely traced.
>>58833206I actually really like this one.>>58833220One of my favorite new Megas, but this is...bad.
>>58833238Somehow the art makes this design...tolerable. I think Because it's in a more interesting pose? I think I was hoping more this treatment for more of the Megas, instead of the poorly imitated official style we got.
>>58833238This shit is so ass
>>58833266I know I'm the one person who didn't love Mega Froslass, but this makes me really like it.>>58833287Bright colors aside, this looks more in line with actual Sugimori art, with the rougher looking line work.
>>58833304What's with the thick outlines on this? It clashes horribly with others, like >>58833307
It's almost like they were counting on the renders being all they had when game released...and they scrambled to get art made when they saw nobody wanted the renders. The styles are just...so different, even within this batch of art that it truly looks like they got a team together to scramble some shit together. >>58833220>>58833329Two of my absolute favorite new ones and they get the worst looking art.
>>58833283>>58833287These look exceedingly flat and cheap compared to the rest. If you'd told me Mega Raichu Y's art was for the anime, I'd believe you.
>>58833361>WHERE IS MY TYPHLOSION MEGA EVOLUTION!?>WHERE IS MY SLOWKING MEGA EVOLUTION!?>WHERE IS MY LEAVANNY MEGA EVOLUTION!?>WHERE IS MY TURTONATOR MEGA EVOLUTION!?
>>58833361Surprise bitch, Barbaracle took its place. Water types that eventually lose the typing.
>>58833649it feels like mobile game art
>>58833220This one is cool, and I didn't even really like the mega that much. Maybe that's a bad sign.
>>58833197this is the most obvious trace yet, what the fuck? donkey kong country prerender looking ass, how can they get away with this?
>>58833197>noticeably tracedbillion dollar brand btw
>>58833224Small ass snout
>>58833225This one is so average that no one has commented on it yet. Absolutely nothing notable about it, not bad but not good either.
>>58833299Cool dude
>>58833289So what’s the “uncool” part here?
>>58833884The early 2000s emo look
>>588338922000s emo look is cool again
The art really shows there was an abundance of gradients in this gen's Megas, huh?
>>58833185>Character art is also outNeat
>>58833216>>58833228>>58833241>>58833243>>58833256>>58833266>>58833289>>58833307>>58833356They won
>>58833289crawling
>>58833195they fumbled the structure so bad wtf
>>58833195All I wanted was for him to get fully developed legs like these.
>>58833837I dont like how one eye changes color
>>58833259>meowsic goes full transI guess nobodys played the game to remark about it
>>58833310>double the legs so it can run away more efficiently
>>58833475>pinnocio snout
>>58833228CHADnaught won. Period.
>>58833185why do the artists still insist on the manboobs? wtf is this design element?
>>58833195Why didn't they redraw this render?
>>58834688>wtf is this design element?Makes it more relatable to Pokémon core demographic
>>58833195>alright, just let me know when you're ready for me to take the photo>done>what?
>>58833228This shouldve been what base Chesnaught looked like FUCK
>>58833197This just looks like the 3D model was traced, pokémon key art lost the SOUL at around Gen IV and has been in a downward spiral ever since.
>>58833195>mega design so lame they used the mirror tool to draw ithonestly a bigger humiliation ritual than gatr
>>58834781>Lamaj>Erioire
>>58834781Nah, that just means that Emboar's perfectly symmetrical.
>>58833741>donkey kong countryQrd?
>>58833320I fear the fan version may have been better.
>>58834951
>>58834781The mega design is cool they were just lazy as shit with this render, even >>58834689 was a way better pose
>>58834955
>>58833197>just the game 3d model with a toon shader
>>58833195Looks good
>>58834951>>58834955offmodel slop
>>58833356What a horrible mega, looks passable in eye mode but in its default like that it looks like Darkrai has been inflated like a balloon for the lols
>>58833364Garchomp Z
>>58833216it has a mouth?
>>58833185>>58833199>>58833226>>58833269>>58833329>>58833347photoshop tier, just a disgrace>>58833209the art itself is kino, I can't lie>>58833228kino>>58833307KINOOOOOOO>>58833304ΩMEGA SOVL
>>58833266its fucked up how obvious this is just a recycled gmax
Face looks a little off to me.
>>58835273Philippe's face looks a little... basic? plain?
>>58835273she looks fine, its just because you can see her eyebrows
>>58835277It's alright
>>58835281I like this one
>>58835283Outlines too thick + Whoever draws faces is just not doing it for me
>>58835285Bro is nonchalant
>>58835288I do like her expression here. Feels like barely managing to put on a cheerful customer service face
>>58833307
Forgot about him
>>58833475>+35 attackMega Glimmora is definitely just fucking around
>>58833321So how come only Mega Stretchy Tatsugiri got official art? I figured they'd do Curly like how it's the one you fight in-game
>>58835320laziness
>>58835293kinda looks like a dude
>>58835244>ΩMEGA SOVLLiterally awful, the outlines are so thick it doesn't even look like it's supposed to be official art
>>58833325The way the ice is drawn here looks...off. This is a problem more inherent to the actual designs, but they make some features so large, that the rest of the design is either too small or not detailed enough.
>>58833199Toilet seat cover>>58833206Cancer tumor
>>58835307I will never stop being assmad about its stat distribution. GF insists on putting some of the +100 into the dumpstats of almost every Mega, ok sure. But THIRTY FIVE FUCKING POINTS IN ATTACK? That's not even what makes me mad though.>1 point slower than base Garchode>2 points slower than Mega Excadril>4 points slower than Mega Sharpedo and PinsirIf GF is THAT anal about not optimizing most Megas that is fine... but they could have literally just done +30 instead and 106 speed would have allowed Mega Glimmora to outrun those crucial foes (since it can hit all of them SE) and be THAT much better. Always count on GF to fuck shit up.
>>58835471it wouldn't be that bad if all megas were unoptimized, but then you have industry plant megas with the most minmaxed bullshit and with bloated BSTs to boot. like come on.
>>58835465>Toilet seat coverBut Feraligatr's not in that picture?
