Masters is closest to canon so that's what everyone follows, they used a Brock model in PLA early testing so I guess that means Brock is canonically the PLA protagonist

The old design was passable on the Gameboy Color, but it’s objectively atrocious. Not to mention the designers admittedly made it without any knowledge on how to design female characters.

The only reason people like it is because of projections put onto the characters (her being trans, her being a tomboy, or plain old boomer nostalgia).

Shes so cute in that outfit though...The blue hair really stands out more than Lyra's brown.

Why didn't they just give Lyra blue hair and and just call her Kris. They changed May's design in oras and no one is calling her a different character.
>>
>>56738183
>Why didn't they just give Lyra blue hair and and just call her Kris.
Because they forgot about her. Kris wasn't promoted every week in a serialized anime like May and Dawn were.
>>
>>56738212
How can they forgot about a main character from a game they are remaking. She was the first girl MC after all. Cooked their brain and blow and loli porn I guess.
>>
>>56738183
>Why didn't they just give Lyra blue hair
She would look like a freak just like people in real life with abnormal colored hair.
>and just call her Kris
Official character names follow a theme, and haven’t been [game name] since the 90s (even then Red was Satoshi and Blue was Shigeru).
>>
>>56738238
>How can they forgot about a main character from a game they are remaking.
Maybe because they were originally just Gold & Silver remakes with the Crystal material being implemented later.

Here is what an anime adaptation of black hair looks like. Very similar to the art you just posted, and different from anime Dawn's. They clearly made anime Dawn's hair blue as a deliberate design choice.

>Why did they replaced Kris again ?

Because Japanese people take patterns very seriously. Kris corresponds to the Crystal version, so they didn’t want her in Gold or Silver remakes. It is a remarkably stubborn design philosophy.
>>

Honestly, I was surprised to learn that Kotone/Lyra's designer said he didn't really use Kris as a reference because he forgot about her until after he came up with it because the swooping twintails are very similar and a very distinct part of each character's design. I like Lyra a ton more though. She's super cute and I love her outfit. The overalls and big hat are adorable.

>>56738587
IMO the bright blue was a good choice. It really makes her design pop and she stands out among background characters better with it.
>>
>>56738665
Before today I never would've guessed that the Kriscuck was also the one attempting to derail Omgon threads.
>>
>>56738686
It’s neat how he took the only design element worth keeping (pigtails) and fixed everything else for the redesign. He’s a miracle worker.
>>
>>56738686
>I like Lyra a ton more though. She's super cute and I love her outfit. The overalls and big hat are adorable.
Taking a break from /vp/ for a while and then coming back to see general opinion reverse on Lyra was a pleasant surprise. She got so much undue hate back then. Kris posters were obnoxious.
>>
>>56738867
>Kris posters were obnoxious.
Gold posters are the same. I’m starting to think Gen 2 is the problem.
>>
>>56738890
>Gold posters are the same.
Gen 3 purists basically do the same thing with the ORAS redesigns.
>>
>>56738890
Millennials in general really, they're like this across all fandoms. Most nostalgia-addled group out there. If some entries in a long-standing series happened when millennials were in their youth you know you'll never hear the end about how those entries were perfect and flawless and everything that came after sucked.
>>
>>56738616

It doesn’t. The yellow remake, Let’s Go, completely breaks with tradition since it was designed to get a Pokémon game on Switch with Pokémon Go mechanics as fast as possible.

Also, you have to consider the timeline of events. HGSS was released in 2009 around a decade after the originals with the Pokémon formula going strong. All games have taken place in Japan at this point. You won’t even have simultaneous international release until X and Y. The company is still focused on being primarily Japanese in both customer base and game design, and HGSS is very Japanese as far as Pokémon games go.

Let’s Go was 2018 a full twenty years after the original release and in a more experimental time period with the generation 7 games. The main character is even confirmed to be a dark skinned girl via the Pokémon Evolutions episode with Green being a side character in the games.
>>

Funny enough I used to not like Kris and her fuckass fans but I grew more fond of her later on. Its like Iris too. I like her but her fans...err. You can like something and remove the fanbase from them.

>>56738867
Eh, grew used to her eventually.

>>56738867

I suppose this is all Millennials have to live for now since everything in the present is going to shit. That nostalgia from happy memories from when they were children.
>>
>>56738867
I like Kris having her one game. Pokémon Crystal is basically her game anyway even if Ethan is also there. She suits that early gba look. Lyra is more in style for the ds area. Both are cute but just different in styles.

The big thing was Masters releasing and having Kris in it and giving her the same amount of content as Lyra. Kris fans were bitter for being ignored and once they got new Kris content and were finally acknowledged most of them became peaceful again.

>>56739176
Yeah. Lyra is like the epitome of that really late-00s nip vidya character design whereas Kris is the same but for the beginning of the new millenium+decade. Lyra feels very Nintendo like wheras Kris is more in line with GF's earlier games like Pulseman and Quinty.
