Was this change necessary?
>>56553348
>>56553359Sounds like a you problem
>>56553348they were as necessary as Gen 3 remakes
>>56553348Necessary? Of course not. Appreciated? Somewhat.I like leaning harder into them being pirates. The darker skin makes sense as people at sea/ outside a lot would be tan. I think the grunts look a lot less generic, you can see how much the art direction has shifed in their faces. I don't like what they did with Shelly. Archie looks a little too goofy to me, they went over the top with him. Matt looks good though.
>>56553348GF WENT WOKE1/10TOO MUCH WATER AND BROWNS
>Game Freak was so embarrassed about Shelly's redesign being a flop they repurposed it into Nessa and it worked
>>56553348honestly I think both could exist at once as part of the same pirate themed group. No reaon everyone is that group has the same sking tone or got toned to the same extent.
>>56553481Bingo
>>56553348They ruined Magma too. I miss the cool capes they had
>>56553348Shelly is a downgrade, but the Grunts are an improvement
>>56553447if it was wokeness I think the characters would be uglier
>>56553348new designs should have orange hair too
>>56553348Yes it was. Now go back to /pol/ to complain about da jooz
>>56553348The male grunt is hotter, so that's all that matters, but the two femoids look retarded.
>>56553348white=boringyou might not like it but it's the truth
>>56553348I would've liked both coexisting
>>56554740They do in the adventures manga.
>>56554663Made for BWC
>>56553348>Necessary?No>Accepted?Yes and noPersonally, I wish they kept some of the OG grunts, and Shelly fighting as a duo. Also, OG Maxie > Remake Maxie. I like more the triad pirate look than the wetsuit fighter.
>>56553348>>56553447>>56554630>>56554663They're tannedThey're literally just tannedIt's like Tetra from Wind WakerIt's a fucking tan
>>56553348considering you are using a fanart for old shelly, yes
>>56554827yeah and that still gets retards like op to blow a fuse
>>56553348>make shelly brown>make her hair *less* curlyto what end???????????????????????????
>>56553348Why do they keep turning gingers black? I guess black people are the superior race.
>>56554779yeah but where's the selfcest
>>56553348Oh so whitewashing is racist but blackwashing isn't? That said, I do prefer the new designs but there's a clear double standard. You can bet GameFreak would've been raked over the coals if the reverse had happened
imagine cumming in her
>>56556993Raping Shelly or domming her
>>56554663White people aren't boring
>>56553348Original Shelly is so much better it's ridiculous.>>56554827Gingers don't tan.
>>56557071Man, I want to fuck redhead Shelly.
>>56553348Brown women are hot
For me it's original Courtney.
New Shelly is so much better
>>56557255I want to suck on those Staryus
>>56556993>OG Shelly>Jobs to kids, and even her strong persona crumbles when defeated>Basically shotasub bait>Remake Shelly>Confident, direct, and speaks more innuendos than a japanese comedian>Shotadom materialI guess they changed more than just skin and hair color.
>>56557969Their personality is literally unchanged
>>56557969And yet Shelly having sex with shotas is still the same. I do want to see bratty shota trainers mating press OG Shelly.
>>56557255>nigga dragqueen with blue makeup>betterzoomer twittwat
>>56558032>dragqueenrent free
>>56553348Yes.
>>56553348It was an objective improvement over the ugly slop that was the gen 3 designs, delicious brown > soulless ginger.
No one besides maybe a couple autists cared about the original teams. They were featured in the anime, and still no one cared much. They had generic boring designs and not much personality beyond being generally thuggish like team Rocket but didn't have the same edge because they were ecoterrorists, not gangsters. I don't remember people being excited for them in the remake UNTIL their designs were revealed. Then everyone was generally on board and fell in love with the admins having real developed personalities, unique designs, and Archie/Maxie being a lot cooler. They all got tons of fan art. There was that guy that made the amazingly popular "Dating a Team Magma Grunt" comic. There was just generally tons of hype and excitement around their new renditions. So if you ask me, it's one of the best and most successful redesigns in the series.
>>56553447>evil dumb oragnization of pirates>make them black>evil but intelligent scientifically advanced organizationstays white
>>56553348They’re just tanned (like Marlon)
>>56553348Red looks better with the blue uniforms.
>>56557255She's hot, but she's just a different character that could've been used in her own role in a later game.
>>56554827They weren't tanned initially, why would they be tanned now?>inb4 it doesn't matterWhy change it then, tranny? Unless it DOES matter, huh?
>>56555744I remember that happening when Pokemon Origins released and Brock was less tanned than in the Ash show.
The one good thing about BDSP is that they didn't fuck with the designs, and I am forever thankful for it.RiP old Shelly. You will be missed.
>>56553348Shelly is the only ORAS design that I like.
>>56553405But at the end of the day, we still got them. Keep seething, hoenn denier.
As someone who likes both redheads and darkies, i’m sick of everyone turning evey character except Rachel Roth and black rangers black. And redheads seem to be reoccurring victims of blackwashing. The more time passes, the more I think blackwashing is done out of spite and only spite. To blackwash supporters, if you don’t like the franchise, you don’t have to watch/read/play it.
>>56560466>but she's just a different charactermore like, more like she already has her own role but she is an actually character while the original shelly was just an NPC with slighlty stronger mon than the average grunt.
>>56553348Why didn't they keep Shelly's outfit? The curly hair would also work better with the darker skin her oras design is so retarded
>>56554827I don't give a shit taking old Shelly and just tanning her a bit would be one thing but instead the just completely replaced her the designs of old and new Shelly have nothing in common. Old Shelly was much better
>>56553348Not necessary but the grunts look better. Shelly looks like shit. Maybe it's a good thing bdsp didn't have redesigns
>>56554663and what 3rd world shithole are you from
>>56553348No, most of the redesigns were unnecessary. Changing outfits a little here and there like what FRLG/HGSS did is fine (though even HGSS went over the line at times, no reason to replace Lyra with Kris and Sabrina is just a really odd change) but radically changing a design to the point of being completely unrecognizable like Shelly is fucking stupid. What's even the point, just use it for a new game (which they more or less did when they repurposed her design for Nessa). It's especially bad when the retards at Game Freak couldn't bother to do trainer customization so you're stuck with the new designs for Brendan and May.
>>56553348>Representing pirates as blacksBased, It's just GF making representation accurate
>>56553348Ginger is an anagram for Ni-
>>56554827If it's just a tan why can't Shelly and the grunt have their red hair
>>56553348No, but you know how it goes with nupokemonAt least the designs aren't exactly bad but like Archie went from just a pirate dude to ARRR MATEY SHIVER ME TIMBERS SHIVER ME NIGGERS YARR
>>56563492>generic grunt looks the besthm
>>56553348>Male gruntRSE > ORAS>Female gruntORAS > RSE>ShellyRSE > ORAS
>>56553348I don't mind the change in design but I'd prefer if they somehow remained red-head.
>>56553348They wanted to make them look less generic and add a little of diversity which worked because whenever you see up Team Aqua art, most prefer the Dark Skin ones.Team Magma had it worse when it came to generic looking though, that is why Tabitha got fat and Courtney got hotter.
>>56564543>They wanted to make them look less genericLmao they look way more generic now
>>56564661Stay mad
>>56564543I always thought fat Tabitha was an odd choice
>>56564543>>56564864Tabitha is so fascinating from a design standpoint, because it seems like nothing can agree how he looks like.>RSE - fearsome looking dude in a slightly altered uniform>Anime - similar to game appearance, but tones down the scarier look>Manga - big buff fuck with long hair>ORAS - fat fuck
>>56564661
>>56567863Tabitha was designed as the polar opposite to Matt. While Matt is buff, dumb and fiercely loyal to Archie, Tabitha is a fat smart scientist who wants to usurp Maxie as leader.
>>56553348>redhead >pants that low>bush not visible
>>56553348>team aqua becomes okinawans>/pol/brains only see niggersI really hate you retarded election tourists from the bottom of my heart
>>56568268Too dark to be okinawans and they will have features similar to brock if they were okinawans.
>>56560054The Team Aqua lead is based on Captain Nemo who's Indian (submarine, volcano base, even directly quotes him at one point: "The sea is everything" https://www.google.com/search?q=gutenberg+leagues+the+sea+is+everything&sca_esv=8a9c246bb402f2a4&source=hp&ei=ZV0LZ760A4PbptQP1pPD2Q0&iflsig=AL9hbdgAAAAAZwtrdbuHnJsnNkyDtQnEYkjpT6Mmuuo9&ved=0ahUKEwj--tzO0oqJAxWDrYkEHdbJMNsQ4dUDCA8&uact=5&oq=gutenberg+leagues+the+sea+is+everything&gs_lp=Egdnd3Mtd2l6IidndXRlbmJlcmcgbGVhZ3VlcyB0aGUgc2VhIGlzIGV2ZXJ5dGhpbmcyBRAhGKABMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGKABMgUQIRirAkiTFVCBDFiBDHABeACQAQCYAWigAWiqAQMwLjG4AQPIAQD4AQL4AQGYAgKgAokBqAIKwgIQEAAYAxjlAhjqAhiMAxiPAcICEBAuGAMY5QIY6gIYjAMYjwGYAxGSBwMxLjGgB9oF&sclient=gws-wiz ) so in his case it kind of makes sense.I regret loss of the ginger tho. Her Ariel vibe was cute.
>>56568559Jesus fuck you ESL learn how to post links.
>>56568603I'm old and don't know how to post a link to inline text in an HTML file. I didn't even get a typewriter until my late teens. When I learned HTML two decades ago it didn't support this feature. Sorry!!
>>56563102canada
>>56553348Yes, down right design fills me with lust and a craving for chocolate ice cream.Top right does neither of those.
