When did Pokemon lose its touch?
>>55766471>>>/pol/
>>55766471i dont feel the same about pokemon since gen v
>>55766471>leftDistinct, unique, makes /pol/tards seethe (based)>rightGeneric anime girls.
>>55766471I can cherrypick too faglord
>>55766471The only cool thing on the right is that sick guitar
>>55766485wow, some ugly old hag, you really showed him.
>>55766471even if left are blatant queerbait characters, the characters on the right are boring soulless weeb slop that only the most anime brain rotted no personality weebs would stan
>>55766475Damn shills are really on high alert today. They will just report any thread remotely related to “him”
>>55766471man ygo really lost their female designs huh
>>55766517What do you mean? They got better
>>55766471Because it got popular
>>55766529>Tea and Alexis are the only attractive girls in this imageI'm so sorry you have to cope this hard
>>55766529>Posting Blue Angel>Not posting AoiTsk tsk
I like Aki and Black Rose Dragon
>>55766471The DLC had cute girls, maybe Paldea is just has an ugly problem
>>55766471It's a mistery
>>55766471Gen 8 for Pokemon.Sevens for Yugioh.
>>55766471I miss old pokemon
>>55766529>better>turning into moeblobs
>>55766529Older was still hotter but even the news ones shit on pokemons new ones
>RikaThis board will tell me Utena and Sailor Uranus are bad modern designs
>>55766503Go back to your containment board
>>55766598Rika is honestly the best of the bunch. She would be fine if the game wasn't littered with LGBTQIA+-bait designs. It makes her existence dishonest
>>55766496Faggot
>>55766475/vp/ is a Nazi board
>>55766624just tell the fags here Sailor Uranus is the most popular Sailor Scout in Japan, somehow that makes some people seethe here
>>55766471>right sidewhy are they all kids?
I would rather fuck the left than right. Pokemon actualy tries to do a variety of types of woman and girls so you can cum on them depending on your mood instead of repeating the same gay ass shit.
>>55766471guitar girl looks genericglasses girl looks ugly
>>55766471YugiohChads I fucking Kneel
>>55766475fpbp
>>55766529>Even the friend who doesn't even play card games looks cooler than recent ones
>Zexal breaks the tradition of older teenage girl female leads whose names starts with an A>Nonetheless creates Yuma's funny, motorcycle fiend young adult sister... whose name starts with an AShe would have been insufferable in the peanut gallery so it was for the best, but I appreciated the gesture. The current character designs aren't to my taste either but to Yu-gi-oh's credit it stuck with the Takahashi/Kagami look for most of seventeen years. Funny to watch long-running franchises change.>>55766624Because then she's not the only one?>>55766678Their being different mediums has a lot to do with it too. Pokemon's game design and setting encourage variety while YGO could function without female characters entirely if it so chose.
>>55766861>Most the women duelists in Yu-Gi-Oh were anime filler charactersHuh.
>>55766883yez, the malez are more popular
>>55766471Huh, I haven't really thought about it before but Yugioh has really died out in the west. How well is it faring in Japan?
>>55766940>Yugioh has really died out in the west.It literally recovered after they removed the dumb extra zone ruling except for Pendulum.
>>55766940Lots of people buy the cards. They just happen to all be middle-aged fat guys.
>>55766947Peldulums were fucking stupid. XYZs were bad enough.
>>55766503Was Rapidash another of your favourite Pokémon?
>>55766471>>55766529>doesn't even post the best Yugioh girl Pathetic
>>55766586people don't care about your trannoid westoid artstyles
>>55766517I always felt like Yugioh was targeted for a more mature audience
>>55766471Pokemon's "make something shitty about it so it's memorable" design philosophy has finally infected the trainers. The last good set of human designs were Gen 7 or 8. Gen 9 has been a total flop.
>Playing pokemon for the human characters
>>55766529>no carlyShit sucks.And wasn't the brunette with glasses the MC's mom or something?
>>55767795Well I'm sure as shit not playing it for the Pokemon anymore. Those designs have sucked since Gen 7.
>>55766471Oh god they really got better.
>>55766471It's just that Yugioh never ONCE catered to girls, the franchise always understood that it's main demographic was boys.
>>55766475>>>/dilate/
>>55766562>hitori gotoh
>>55768597>>>/areyoublind/
>>55766658She's not, it's Sailor Moon, followed by Sailor Mercury.
>>55766940The characters in the OP are from the newer anime series promoting Rush Duel, a spinoff cardgame aimed at kids that don't have the kind of budget to buy a meta deck for $1000 in order to not lose on the first turn against the kind of smelly fat 30 year olds that play the OCG.It's a pretty big success and solved Konami's worldwide problem of new kids not getting into the game because it's too complex and expensive.
>>55768450I unironically picked up Sevens for Romin.
>>55768450>>55768705Romin is pure sexo.
>>55768694When I was young, the most popular was Mercury; it's Moon now?
>>55766471>girl on the right
>>55766471>Poke"girls" are now worse than Yugioh girlsWhat a timeline we're in kek
>>55766471-pokemon is about girlsnigga please. go back to my little pony
>>55766471You posted Rushit girls not Yugioh girls, rush will never be YugiohThis is what actual current Yugioh girls are like
>>55766471Infiltrated by James Turner.
>>55768694>>55768802https://www.arabnews.jp/en/arts-culture/article_33513/where is Ami coming from
>>55766484why would i want to play characters that have a 48% chance to lose a battle?
>>55766496>some ugly old hagOk pedo
>>55769291>pseudo-edgy safe horny garbageWow, yugioh sucks.
>>55766471/vp/ really hates Rika.
>>55766475Yup
>>55769291Diabelle is really funny that if you only look at the card arts you will think she is a badass witch that is always cool but when you look at the reference art and other stuff you will see she is a drunk that barely takes care of herself and her two main magical items(that are actually made from the souls of other witches she knew) take care of her and even that she was a nerd when she was a child
>>55770464>almost every other thing shown in the Quarter Century animation was a cool shot or an important part of the story>hers was she passed out in a box somewhere with her pet by her side
>>55766471When they added the they/them bathroom in the first SC/VI dlc
>>55770578Why would you waste budget making two wheelchair bathrooms? Those are huge and there aren't exactly many people in wheelchairs in Pokémon.
>>55769729The dedicated "looks like a girl" cards were things like harpies, amazons, witches of various ages, angels, fairies, and a dragon that was secretly the reincarnation of a woman. Always has been safe horny.
>>55766471Pokemon XY, when it started pandering to waifufags and "I JUST HECKING LOVE MY HECKING CUTE POKEMON AND MY HECKING WHOLESOME ADVENTURES".There's a reason Pokemon Showdown mogs almost the entire franchise.
>>55766471I mean I'm not saying Paldea isn't the worst region in a while, but it's a bit biased to leave out this semen demon
>>55770822Ewwwwww
>>55770826Your loss
>>55769740>/vp/ has dogshit taste What else is new
>>55766503Kys
>>55766471What the fuck are you talking about I'd fuck all of the women in this picture except for Penny because penny's like 14 or some shit
>>55770464>>55770480I’ve known this woman for about three seconds but I can fix her
>>55766471Pokemon SV is ugly as shit but let's not pretend that the "yugioh in girls 2023" are remarkable. They are more attractive but they are so damn generic that they could appear in any anime or video game. Is that having touch? of course not.
>>55770480I thought that was Coronamon at first glance
>>55766471Crazy you ignored Nemona, Iono, Katy, Tulip, Carmine, and Lacey all introduced this gen.Also wtf happened to Yugi-Oh girls such a fall from grace from Téa how did they go from cute and distinct designs to bland anime kids?
>>55766529after Aki the only salvageable design is Aoi
>>55766471the two girls on the left are a thousand times more interesting and attractive than the two generic soulless things on the right.
>>55769729Safe Horny is such a retarded termLike some people needed to invent a term to victimize the things they jack off and cum to...like its just retarded...
>>55766471Pokemon is actually fun to play though. You don't need to play Yu-Gi-Oh to masturbate to their women.
>>55766529>Better>MoeshitIt's not even bait at this point
>>55772846>Tfw i do both
>>55772767wrong, retard
>>55766471YGO even went full pedo and had the characters in elementary school.
>>55766471the monsters design are what suck ass, they still do the girls well. rika is hot as fuck and penny's a cute neet. geeta's shit though i'll give ya that but they've been fucking over champions ever since gen 7 for whatever reason, maybe it's just to make the player seem like the real champion or something stupid.
>>55770464..and this is, her ace legendary Pokémon
>>55766641true.
>>55772767The fact you couldn't tell Rika is also a girl peaks volumes for her design.
>>55774337he was obviously referring to geeta retard-kun, who is not a girl nor a boy but a space alien and thus its gender is unknowable.
>>55766475>if you're not grateful for Game Freak's slop you're a naziImagine being this much of a bootlicker.
>>55774252And like any major legendary these days it has a second form
>>55769291This is Yugioh now.
>>55772818>/vp/ is retardedmany such cases!
>>55769697>pedophilia is... le bad!
>>55774337I said "the two girls on the left" you retard. That means Rika and Penny, as they are the leftmost ones.
>>55775609>Getting mad for being called out Hi /pol/
>>55766471Yugioh always had better girls anyway, probably cause the original manga was made for a teenage audience so they could get away with giving em massive bazoongasMisty/Sabrina/Erika < Mai and DMG
>>55772736solgaleo if $1 store knockoff discount
>>55766475
>>55766471Insanity. Game freak has been nailing character design over the past 2 generations.
>>55776477What I would give to find the US TV guide-esque write-up that mentioned Duel Monsters had "leggy girls".Still funny that original YGO itself had a such a demographic identity crisis, with the Duel Monsters TV show desperately trying to pretend the early material never happened and toning down the latter manga in places, and of course international dubs further editing that. RIP dueling chastity belt, you are not dearly missed but you always made me bust out laughing.
Can Ruris from Arc-V compete with pokegirls?
>>55777596predates Solgaleo by 9 years. Also looks nothing like Solgaleo
>>55779924post sauce

>>55766471Rika is pure sex, what are you on about?Human character design continues to be this franchise's greatest strength
>>55770845>out of model fanart
>>55770822People let their hate for Paldea and its terrible designs take away from the beauty that is Nemona. But she has noticeable breasts and hips, making her too old for some of the people here
>>55770820>Pokemon Showdowdmore like anon has down syndrome lmao
>>55768802Crystal gave people new appreciation for Usagi.
