Ever since gen 6, the male protagonists have looked less cool and respectable and more gay, weak, and... Young...

I know they're like 10 years old, but since when have Pokemon characters looked their age? Fucking flanery is like 16. Elesa is apparently 15. Give me my 16 year old looking 10-14 year olds again

Florian looks like a kindergartener

elio looks great

>>56960338
He looks like a fucking faggot. Ever since I saw (I DID NOT READ IT) a hentai comic of his mom fucking black dudes and making him dress like a little girl, I cannot unsee that when I look at him. How old is he officially? 10? 9? He's the same age as red, but looks half his age

Victor looks like a bitch also, but a LITTLE less like one. Maybe it's the attire
>>
Since they entered the 3D era and realised they had to make kids start looking like kids instead of drawing a tweenager and calling them a kid, because the sprite-based graphics made it easier to pretend they were younger.
Red looks like a teenager at least, Florian looks like a 10 year old. Red was drawn in an era where his sprite was 16x32p in the overworld, Florian in an era where his model (thus a set comparison to both adult NPC's and child NPC's) was given a value that equated to about 4'10" in the game world. Because that's the height of the average 10 year old in Japan.
>>
>>56960361
Hilbert looks cool. You're a faggot
>>56960360
At least the sprite work for Ethan makes him look cool and serious
>>
>>56960365
But calem and sun don't look that bad. Why not just do that for gen 8 and 9?
>>
>>56960331
damn good thing the games aren't lazy as fuck anymore so you can customize your character to look however you want.
>>
>>56960383
Because the 3DS display wasn't HD, you spaz fucker. It needs to look somewhat decent on Switch and frankly neither Gen 6 or 7 would look good on it, as it wasn't intended to be ran on shit as powerful as Switch.
>>
>>56960389
I'd rather have one cool design over several that I'm not satisfied with. Customization options cannot salvage Elio, Victor or Florian. In Florian's case the only way to salvage him is to make him dress like a girl.
>>
>>56960389
It only takes forever to do that since the characters keep yapping. It also doesn't change the stupid, unserious expression your character has. Imagine Florian dressed like Brendan but he still has his gay expression. You can't make shit palatable by sprinkling sugar on it
>>
>>56960398
>I'd rather have one cool design
You can make as many cool designs as you want because the games aren't lazy dogshit anymore. Go nuts.

>>56960395
Faggot, the XY and SM models looked fine. There is no excuse why they can't design the characters to look like that again. Hell, Nemora, Penny, fucking Bede, FUCKING HOP -- these guys ALL look more like ACTUAL protagonist than you IN GAME
>>
>>56960410
Yeah, none of the clothes you can buy are all that interesting and you get outshined by most NPCs now. GF needs to make better fashion options.

Yeah, small wonder they looked "fine". Die in a fire shithead, world's too full of stupid cunts to handhold you any longer.

Red and Ethan look like lads but they're still cool.

His official art is fucking awful, his Indigo Disk art is much better >>56960364

>>56960331
Calem and Elio look fine to me. Victor does look like a loser, and Florian makes me want to bully him.
>>
>>56960683
He still dresses like a faggot, so not much has changed.
>>

Stupid fucking cunt indirectly admitting I'm right by not denying that current day characters look better designed than the protagonist. Kill yourself. Just being a virgin forever won't suffice

You wouldn't know that if you didn't read it.
>>
>>56960331
The reality is that no one gives a shit about Calem, Helio, Victor or anyone that isn't Red.

I think GF did the right thing in Gen 9 finally making the male character one sided, for example everyone loves edgeventures Juliana, proving that the direction of the franchise should be Love live or Idolmaster instead of appealing a minority in this franchise.
>>
>>56961268

Sorry thinking in different definitions is so hard for you, I guess.

Okay fag pedo. You gonna keep making threads about virile young boys until the heat death of the universe?
>>
>>56961636
Nah, fuck off. I like Elio, and I felt bad for Calem as the game progressed and I just utterly destroyed his spirit and will to live.
>>
>>56960331
It's just that they needed the newest male lead to conform to a same basic appearance as a girl could also have. So they made him a kawaii-eyed manlet that wears gay little shorts.

Seriously, look at the size and roundness (=feminine) of his eyes compared to the others.

Chicken is literally retarded in official games now.
Lillie still refers to her group of friends as "Elio and the others."

Because Pokemon fully embraced its fujoshi audience, and Kieran is one of the most popular characters to come out of SV because of how much weirdo women cream themselves at the thought of him revenge raping Florian.
>>
>>56962011
>look at the size and roundness (=feminine) of his eyes
Exactly, that's what I hate

I just realized something: every since Gen 6, the protagonists have shared the exact same eye and hair color, so much so that they look related or they're gender swap versions of each other. Why the fuck are they doing this?
>>
>>56962038
Wtf is an idol master? Is that taskmaster's new form?

>>56960383
Sun looks like a beta cuck. People just ignore that because it allows them to self insert into fucking Lillie

Gen 6-8's protag looks less gay than 4's or the 2nd gen 5 one
>>
>>56962805
If you had just gen 6, your bait may have landed, but you failed
>>
>>56962767
Most of the people jerking off to Lillie don't give a fuck about self-inserting as the protag.

And SuMo story patricians such as myself know how to separate the Player from the Player Character.
Nobody self-inserts as Tidus in FFX.

How are the females not just as generic? It's fine if you like them more because of the fact that they're female, but objectively speaking, what makes the female protagonists any more distinctive than the males?
>>
>>56965671
>NTA
I do think the females (specifically after Gen 6) look better than the males. Part of me assumes it's GF's way of saying the protagonists for gens 8 and 9 are canonically female
>>
>>56965838
What would it take to make the males look better than the females, in your opinion? It's fine if you think the females look better simply because they are female, I get that, but what's an objective reason that the females are less generic than the males?
>>
>>56964732
Indeed.
>>
>>56965671
they're not just Leaf rehashes

>>56960331
Literally none of them are 10. Stop spreading this Ashnime headcanon. The youngest are 11, like Elio.
>>56960338
Florian is 150cm tall, which is the average height for kids aged 12-14. He has a bit of a babyface ingame but he doesn't look that young.
>>
>>56962460
Literally when do they act like homos
>>
>>56965671
>How are the females not just as generic?
Because they aren't and the fact the only thing people talk about brendand is about the fucking hair/hat discussion just proves how much there's little to say about male MCs
>>
>>56967336
>I need my children to be hot
Okay gay pedo
>>
>>56967318
All the boys have their own unique clothing styles, just as the girls do, so I don't see how they are rehashes.
>>56967384
But most of the talk surrounding the girls involves their tits and ass. Which again, is fine and doesn't bother me, but I'm still not seeing what objectively makes them less generic (or more, I'm not saying the boys are less generic than the girls are, either; and honestly I think GF does this on purpose, leaving it up to the player's imagination for the most part).
>>
>>56967184
I think the males are lacking that cool factor they had back then. Both of the protagonists look cute and kiddy, and that works fine for the female protagonists (which is why I think they look better than the males), but it makes the males look like generic nobodies imo
>>
>>56960331

Pokemon really started to test the waters with crushes in gen 9. Carmine was about to profess her love for you, but was interrupted. Nemona followed you around the map drolling over you, same with Kieran. Arven gets jealous over anybody getting friendly with you.

I really need some tips from that little guy.

>>56969938
>haven't seen the full game so I know better
You cannot be serious. Really?
Ok, fine, I'll spoonfeed you. There's a postgame story event where you have a little heart to heart in her own room. She basically explains how important you are to her and gets embarrassed. It's not exactly a love confession, but the connotations are there.
>>
>>56969949
It's because she recognizes you as someone talented. she's specifically designed to be your superior, a big sister for you to look up to
>>
>>56969950
I see, no surprise you found it boring then. You haven't seen anything of the actual story yet.
It takes a bit of time to take off, but once the game gets into the Area Zero stuff it gets really interesting. I never gave a shit about Pokémon stories until I played SV. The ending is unironically kino.

The only things I remember from that side story are her trying to battle with other students and scaring them off, as well as the fade to black with you and Nemona "battling" for hours. They knew what they were doing with that last one.
