>>56685138All inferior versions
>>56685138Skitty looks like it has seen stuff
>>56685138that nigga Walrein is naked
>>56685138They’re hideous
>>56685138why do gen 3 betas look so unfinished/bad compared to the gen 2 ones
>>56685160probably because they had more pixels + colors to work with, so they got to do more with the designs, which means more work.
>>56685138Is there any beta wailmer sprites
>>56685138So Sableye was a Deep One at one point? I wonder if they were just schizophrenic with his design, or if they just took his design and slapped it over the old Sableye and made a few tweaks to it
>>56685138Tag yourself, I am the zangoose
>>56685172
this image doesn't even have half of all the new stuff
>>56685192the others look the same
For some reason the prototype Charizard sprite looks much better than the final one.
>>56685138Walrein looks cool but the rest meh

>>56685201so true bestie
>>56685298thats just weird lugia
>>56685138I think this image is fake, I dont believe plasma dog made it past its concept drawing
>>56685328the green head was into flygon
>>56685328nah it did, check one of the more recent /ppg/s, it's where the rest of the recent batch of gen 3 beta mons came from in the image as well
>>56685328Its not.
>>56685290ALL THE SPRITES ARE HERE ITS A SAFE LINK IT WAS POSTED BY POKEMON PROJECT ON TWITTER
>>56685322It's a beta version of Altaria actually. A few days ago people claimed it was a precursor of Rayquaza (since Rayquaza was originally listed as white and has scales) or Milotic (because it was serpentine) but it's actually a precursor of Altaria. The Cutting Room Floor also removed the section about Lighli possibly inspiring the designs of Rayquaza and Milotic.
>>56685423where is this from post the link
>>56685189
>>56685494Saved.
>>56685138Gulpin is the only one in this we were robbed of.Look at him, he's so cute, he looks like a lil berry. He is what he eats, what a cute lil guy
>>56685464TCRF? They used to say it could be Altaria, Rayquaza or Milotic but now that it has basically been confirmed (based on the recently leaked sprite sheets) that it it's actually Altaria, they have erased the earlier statement.https://tcrf.net/Development:Pok%C3%A9mon_Ruby_and_Sapphire/Pok%C3%A9mon_Data
>>56685612hitler
at least post all of them
>>56685138Salamance's old design is ugly as bum.
>>56685138I like the Shiftry in the top row but literally everything else looks worse
>>56685138I stop checking on this bullshit for a few hours and then we actually get some gen 3 stuff? No way, when did this drop?
>>56685138Shiftry looks sick, so robbed
>>56685138Wonder if beta aron became shieldon next gen.
>>56685138What are the shadow dog things in the top two rows?
>>56685549We got him though.
>>56685360>>56685385Given how Latias and Latios's scratch pads look similar (having a Lati and Metagross), does Ralt's imply it was going to be similar or related to them?
>>56685138I like rhe snoruntapex
>>56685152Yeah except Volbeat, Walrein (the less old human hair the better) and Jirachi
>>56685138The pose for beta salamence was rad, its just the head is fucked up.
>>56689152That turned into Wingull
>>56685138They look like Gen 8-9 filth
>>56685816Basically japanese movietwo
>>56686686no with that retarded meme mouth
>>56685223different sprite artists probably. all the kanto mon sprites in RSE look bizarrely wonky compared to johto and hoenn mons, and this was corrected for FRLG. i've seen speculation that those wonky sprites were made by Morimoto in a rush, same guy who made the foetus Mew sprite for RG
>>56690194Could have worked, although its not the same
>>56691106
>>56685172Yeah. It used to be a brainlet, believe it or not.
>>56685138It's funny how in the concept stages they aren't just literally the animal but colored and actually have extra bits than their final version is literally just animal colored blue or something
>>56685138>whiscash has the Wit has to mean something
>>56685138the gen 2 beta mons were so soulful but these have all been underwhelming
>>56685138Milotic split evo from dragonair would have been kino
>>56685138whizmur was a snubbull prevo lol
>>56685138wait "psycho dog" from the gen 3 concept art became fucking flygon? what the fuck?
>>56685138Honestly crazy they had a housefly pokemon planned this early on and just havent made one since it was scrapped.
>>56692506I think they were just trying the palette. They have several scratchpads with different mons together like latias with metagross and groudon.
>>56692522gen 3 had a peacock, a snowman but with wing, a hummingbird
>>56693280are those pokemon connected?
>>56693319Not really
YO THE INCENSES WERE BASED ON TORKOAL ORIGINALLY?
>>56685456sexsprout
>>56685160The GS leak is fake
>>56689065As per Gen 3's Index list, the Ralts line was a late addition. They probably used Latios's sprite as a placeholder until they had something final. Would also explain why Latios is so common in the scratchpads.https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Pokémon_by_index_number_in_Generation_III
>>56685360Green Metagross unironically looks even cooler than the Metagross we got.
>>56685494fucking classic
>>56685494saved
>>56693547Proof? Hear people keep spotuing this and im interested on the reasoning
>>56693547>Implying this one is real
Zangoose looks real fuckin' snooty, like he's disdaining all you plebs, about to crack the whip and tell you to get back to work while he rubs his big chungus belly
>>56694865Schizophrenia
>>56685160>entirely new art direction and character desjgn>new art style of high contrast no outlines>after receiving a ton of feedback on gen 2's perceptionThe devs were pushed out of their comfort zone and made to make something new, fresh and different.Also plenty of gen 2 Pokemon look unfinished, it's highly dependent on the build. Spaceworld 97 was designed so the dex could be in some form of a "complete" state, but other in between builds aren't like that.
>>56685459Yo
>>56694966>>new art style of high contrast no outlinesThis had a lot of impact
>>56685160They were soft rebooting the franchise for gen 3 and still having to try their art style + they're working with more pixels and colors so fleshing out a concept design fully only to get trashed is more costly.
>>56685570I remember Dr Lava making a huge post on how they discovered beta Rayquaza, the white dragonHe didn't even remember Altaria existed.
>>56687893>>56685328
>>56685138milotic is dragonair's true final form
>>56696242wut, where did he get that info?
>>56685138I kind of like that Metang
>>56685154MDMA maybe
>>56697474 the gen 3 beta pokemon were leaked in 2020?
>>56691564It means he's a Winner
>>56697873>wienerftfy
>>56693558Its also likely Latios was the first legrndary made, and since the Latis in general were the main focus of the games at the time of the Festa demo given how the title screen displayed that scene with your player riding a bike alongside them
>>56697624Only Pokedex entries through the gigaleak
