The original 151 just don't look like Pokemon anymore; with the art evolution of the series they suffer majorly from early-instalment weirdness. They need redesigning to fit in with the modern art direction.

They should never have made more than 151 Pokémon; Then there wouldn’t be a problem.

No, I turned it into a Pokemon instead of a half-baked prototype design from before the series knew what it was doing.

Like look at this vulpix and ninetales. You can tell instantly what it's supposed to be while adding more Post Unova design and more Asian mystical ideas.

It's not Gen 1's problem that the rest of the series became worse.
>>
>>56934884
But it didn't, it became better and left Gen 1's designs obsolete. They need to be fixed.

Yes, making them into odious blasphemies is totally the right idea here.
Alolan/Galarian/Hisuian/Paldean forms already exist to fit that niche, so go be obnoxious elsewhere and make new forms that will never happen.

Overcomplicated for the early route bird
Compare that pidgey to a rookidee or a fletchling
It's a redesign more akin to the braviary line rather than the traditional, elegant early route bird
That's the problem with a lot of these redesigns, they're overcomplicating it.
>>56934876
>>56934913
These are the only decent redesigns you posted
>>
They better not have ruined the Slowpoke family
>>
>>56935117
But the designs continue to follow a theme the old ones by Sugimori where simple because they had to be, as the games and the machines became capable of more colors pixels and polygons the designs became more complex as consequence.
It's not hard to think that the originals would be just as complicated if they where designed now with no technological limitations.

Do you really want me to list them ALL? I'm pretty sure I could create a wall of text for each individual one shared already.
I can summarize it by saying that all of them are completely overdesigned, but that would be insufficient to you, I would wager.

But not all Numons are 'complicated'
The main difference between numons and oldmons is that numons have the tendency to stick closer to a theme rather than being monsters
For example, there's nothing complicated about Cyclizar. What stands amout about him when you compare him to something like Nidoking is that he sticks closely to a clear idea, he's a lizard motorcycle. He's not a lizard monster with some patterns on his neck that looks like a wheel, he's an actual motorcycle lizard
A more "modern" Squirtle line would be leaning in to the idea if a turtle with an artillery platform on it's back, not growing a beard like in this>>56934853
>>
>>56935165
charizard if good
>>
>>56935166
If Creatures went to GameFreak and Said it's time to change designs to be more modernized by order of Nintendo, what would they do?
Even Digimon have the same issue you can 100% look at the originals for the first series compared to say New Heros line.

I'm not the OP. I just want this board's posters to use their own fucking words for once, instead of resorting to meme templates, buzzwords, and stock phrases like they do with everything, because people like you have been conditioned to just parrot shit instead of thinking for themselves.

The only one that should fuck off is you, and people like you. What people like you give isn't "criticism," nor do you care about giving it - you're just ridiculing, and shitposting, because that's all your braindead ilk know how to do anymore. Go outside. Read a fucking book. Do literally anything else until you can form your own opinions, and use your own goddamned words, you absolutely worthless parasite.
>>
>>56935190
They'd tell them to fuck off or they'd make new forms. They're never going to change the originals because gen 1 nostalgia is a very profitable thing.
>>
>>56935198
>sudden meltdown
>saying a design is "too busy" is apparently a meme/buzzword/stock phrase
Jesus fucking christ. And I'm the one being told to go outside? How fucking ironic is that? Isn't it more like any sentence (You) don't like is a stock phrase?
>>
>>56935204
You don't understand corporate will, especially in Japan.
The Redesigned 151 would be more plushes and toys, while the Nostalgiaic designs would now gain more Value for Antiquity this also means they can forever dip into the old ideas with out having to make new dexes.
A win win for a Corporation that makes buoku bucks with JUST merchandise.
If it fails it just becomes a novelty idea like New Coke was.

>Bulbasaur
Chibified is putting it lightly. Changed the bulb on its back to be [UNDECIPHERABLE]. Fewer pattern splotches
>Ivysaur
Also somehow chibified. Bulb on its back is more predominantly weed-like. Made it goth, while doubling up the markings and eyeliner?
>Venasaur
Probably a derivative of its mega's design. unnecessary eye-shadow. 7 different colors to the OG's 5, all of which are mixed around carelessly to give it a yokai appearance
>>56934853
>Squirtle
Chibified, but with unnecessary detail modifications and simplifications. This is a recurring theme.
>Wartortle
Oh look, more markings and simplified shapes. The shell showing the evolution of the shell is arguably the only nice touch about it.
>Blastoise
Are you trying to compete with Chesnaut's design with this? And heaven forfend, why the hell is the shell smooth as it is? Does the artist have an aversion to adding details like that on top of the added fluff they added for no real rhyme or reason?
>>56934876
>Vulpix
It's just Alolan Vulpix but Fire. Adding the off-color underbelly is unnecessary here. And what the hell gives with those tail spots?
>Ninetales
This is why people are rejecting modernity. It's literally just a kyubii at this point.
>>56934913
>Pikachu
Modern Pikachu, but a retard was allowed to add unnecessary markings to it.
>Raichu
Gave it the chibi treatment and then added more needless markings.
>>56934923
>Nidoran(M/F)
Literally just a pallet swap, save one has angry eyes and one doesn't, and the ears are changed very slightly. Made them into rabbits.
>Nidorino
Traded details for markings.
>Nidorina
Traded details for markings, and somehow became more chibified in the process
>Nidoking
Not a terrible design, but by sticking to the rabbit philosophy in Nidoran, it betrays its predecessor's intents.
>Nidoqueen
What the fuck is happening with its arms? Also what in the ungodly hell does it need all these shit markings for?

Character limit reached. Designs are dogshit.

It absolutely IS criticism, you trembling fuck. The difference is you're on fucking 4chan looking for people to be respectful and gentle with telling you why [thing] is bad, when the reality is that nobody has the fucking time to put up with your bullshit.
No. You're going to get unfiltered criticism, and you're going to like it. If you don't like it, go back to your hugbox on Twitter/Bluesky and stroke your ego elsewhere.
