Name a bigger downgrade
>>56934130/vp/ then and /vp/ now
>>56934130
>>56934156other than the feet, how is it worse?
>>56934136
>>56934196
>>56934196This.And they didn't even change how it attacks,it still uses swords.
>>56934165Take a good look.
>>56934216she doesn't have broken unfunctional anime legs now? Is that it?
>>56934216The face is better, only thing worse is the beach ball replaced by generic Pokeball model. Bust looks smaller but hard to tell from Gen 4's pixels.
>>56934141No downgrade detected
>>56934339>Nerd in a labcoat>Schizo in a robe>Guys in kaiju costumes>Guy wearing slowpoke merch>Basedjak face youtuber
>>56934339Went from flasher in a trenchcoat, to cosplay, to a straight up freak to a redditor
>>56934221Retard
>>56934223i disagree
>>56934204this scares the hebephiles
>>56934210The new version does a reverse grip.
>>56934223The face is worse.
>>56934650>stops basing Hiker's appearance based on Koji Nishino>franchise immediately goes to shitThat's what you get for whoring your IP out to pander to the "modern international audience" you fucking traitors
>>56934223Well, to start with, there's literally no shading on the 3D model
>>56934339me as gen 3 pokemaniacs
>>56934339Kinda wonder what exactly made the gen 1 and 2 sprites KAIJU maniacs specifically, they just look like a stereotypical nerd trying to look cool. The later ones get sillier but at least it's obvious what they're into.
>>56935135Team composition.
>>56935144Yes, it's in their trainer class name that they like kaiju-type monsters, but I don't see that name being reflected in the NPCs' outward appearance. It's just a nerd with a cool-for-highschoolers hairdo and a longcoat/cloak.
>>56934216newer model is over weight
>>56934860This, his gain of large eyes were insanely jarring.
>>56934196>>56934204For once the parrot is correct.
>>56934860They started pandering to a modern international audience with Gen 5
>>56935135>>56935170It's just how a stereotypical loser nerd kaiju otaku appearance was perceived back then. The secondary villain from Gridman (1993) is a good example. Dude's a kaiju maniac too, he makes the kaiju-of-the-week for the hero to fight.
>>56935294Wrong.
>>56934366>robethat's a trenchcoat>kaijuthat's charizard
>>56935301Alright, that makes sense if they were drawing from specific JP pop culture examples. That guy definitely could be a Pokemaniac.
