Come on man. Why is Game Freak so allergic to just making good designs nowadays?
>>58378102What's that, Seadramon?
>>58378102>nowadays
>>58378113SkullSeadramon, a new Digimon in Time Stranger.
>>58378102>creative memorable design>edgy overdesigned dogshit that gets forgotten 5 minutes after you stop looking at it
>>58378121it makes a ton of sense why Kanto took this approach within context but anybody who thinks Kanto designs are peak are genuine NPCs
>>58378121I haven't seen anyone call Mega Feraligatr unoriginal, a Pokémon you're better off taking a shit or piss on than using is certainly unique.
>>58378130um, please don't remind me of that... stuff that comes out of dogs. Thanks
>>58378102Their design is hit or miss since gen 4.In recent memory they made Hydrapple which is kino.
>>58378102I really feel that because fans have made so many good designs, and we know that GF scraps designs cause they look too similar to fan designs, it fucks them over into making shit designs.
>>58378102>Come on man. Why is Game Freak so allergic to just making good designs nowadays?Pokémon design rules are:-Have to be cute enough for children to love -Have to be soft-looking enough to be made into a plushieThat's it
>>58378121You're missing dewgong, tentacool, rhyhorn, squirtle, caterpie, metapod, butterfree, kakuna, beedrill, sandshrew, zubat, venomoth, persian, ponyta, shelder, krabby, horsea, staryu, and omanyteLiterally just animals
>>58378102It says all you need to know about digimon that the only time people ever talk about it is to compare it to pokemon.
>>58378102>digitranny threadOh yeah, the monster franchise where 50% are humans in masochistic suits.
>>58378121Kanto designs were boring but passable.Mega Gatr is uniquely shitty.
>>58378102There's a reason why Digimon was dead for the last 2 decades.
>>58378130Mega Feraligatr isn’t that edgy.
>>58378126love skull seadramon, did they give it a mega form in time stranger?
>>58378253they and the rest of japan need to swallow their autistic level of pride and accept that running a massive decades-old multi-media monster catcher franchise with billions in revenue and tens of millions of players buying every single game is guaranteed to spit out a nearly infinite amount of fan designs that will inevitably form some sort of overlap with anything the developers can think up
>>58378130>digimon>creative memorable designshiggy
>>58378130There's nothing creative about shitgimon designs
>>58378412Yes, poor management(without the brand fanaticism and paypig bucks to offset it) and too many soft reboots(also poor management)
>>58378102Same reason as all the other aspects of these games that they've let slip over the years: because they know you're going to buy it anyway.
>>58378265Those rules applies to main 151 dex and next-gens etc. Mega evolution designs are not however good as merchs because shit is so purposely overdesigned that it really can't make toys out of it unless it's Charizard(s).
>>58378102Don't we go through this same song and dance routine every time a new Pokemon game comes out with new Pokemon or new designs for old ones?
>>58378474>shitgimonBut Pokemon's the shitty one.
>>58378220>Hydrapple>kinoI seriously hope anyone who likes the applin line dies, taste too shitty to be allowed to exist.
>>58378121None of these are just IRL dog breeds at your aunt's house
>>58378102It's hard to care about any Digimon that's not Mega level. It's like being hyped for a middle evolution.
>>58378102God SkullSeadramon is so badass
>>58378156Oh nooooo Gatrbros wtfffff
>>58378741This makes zero sense.
>>58378480And it doesn't have brand fanaticism because...?I'll give you a clue, the Digimon.
Looks to me like you utterly misread the intent of the thing and got a walking toilet to remind you of your place bitch.
"memorable is better than good" is the worst meme /vp/'s ever tried to push
"digishit good" is the worst meme digishills desperate for attention ever tried to push
>>58379474That's not wrong, there's like 1500+ Digimon, most of them are recolors of popular Digimon, but they are utterly unmemorable. On top of that Digimon keeps catering to the "memorable" audience, as it keeps making more evolutions for Agumon, seemingly ignoring the rest of the series, and they just did a whole clothes set DLC and Music pack for nostalgia pandering to Digimon Adventure.At some point you gotta realize when to stop, they have been nostalgia pandering to Adventurefags for a decade now.
dearest seething pokecuck:be informed that parroting is an admission of defeatlove,your aryan digiGOD superior
>>58379490>That's not wrongsure it is>most of them are recolors of popular Digimonnot true>they are utterly unmemorableeven if this was true, they're at least good designs which is and always will be infinitely superior than being remembered forever for mega evolving into a toilet bowl
>>58379508Did you somehow forget you have a literal pile of shit as a Digimon? Do you have any margin to speak of toilets here?
>>58379510the difference being that that digimon was intentionally designed to look like a pile of shit, meanwhile pokecuck designers drew a toilet bowl thinking they were drawing a super powerful mega form for one of their flagship monsters. It's like when a little kid draws a t-rex but it ends up accidentally looking like a dick, but being a little kid he doesn't realise what he drew and thinks it's the coolest shit everwhich, by the way, pokemon designers did as well
>>58379519Palkia despite looking like a dick is one of the more popular Pokemon. And people hated it when they stopped making him look like a dick so there's appeal in penis is what I'm saying.
>>58379530that's just a testament to the hilarious shit taste of the average pokecuck
>>58378741The amount of people that love Ranamon and Gatomon is vast.Personally I love Good ol Monochromon and Whamon.
>>58379536The best version of Greymon (Ancient Greymon) is still not in the games despite being from 2003 while your Bandai Kekaroo decided to add those ugly humanoid lizards from the recent Adventure movie. You want to talk about shitaste? Come back when your shitlords stop keking the games with awful choices.
>>58379519>its ok for designers to give you shit if its intentionaldigifag logic everyone
>>58379551no, I think you'll find that it's actually pokecuck logic
>>58379557>it should have been my animoo angel dragon fanfic
>>58378743>>58378102>hi I'm 14 year olds and THIS is peak!!!!!!okay kid...
>>58379568concession accepted
>>58379572Imagine forgetting what it feels to have testosterone in your blood.Dragons, dinosaurs, guns and tank/trucks never stop being cool, you just got beaten the joy out of you by life, I pity you.
>>58379568Yes it should've been.
>>58378730I just saw a Spearow flying over my window
>>58379584They would rather have a literal toilet aligator, it's very sad. I don't even like the new digimon game, but at least digimon knows how to make cool designs.
>>58378724No It's kino. It evolves from a mere apple worm to a ferocious Hydra.
>>58379584This is the most lowest thing I’ve read on this webzone
>>58378102>Why is Game Freak so allergic to just making good designs nowadays? >Nowdays
>>58379519>>58379510as a fellow Digimonfag please shut the fuck up as you're making us all look bad.Yes, Sukamon has surprisingly many contextual reasons to exist but you need to recognize that you're throwing stones in glass houses by attacking pokemon designs because they subjectively, unintentionally, sorta look like a toilet lid to you. Continuing the kindergarten "my '-Mon' franchise is better than yours!" shitfling in the year 2025 is so fucking retarded
>>58379649>as a fellow>le optics Fuck off.
>>58379649>ScumonA pile of shit that you get when you're an awful tamer to your Patamon or Kunemon.>ToiletGatrThe literal end product of your heightened bond with your starter Pokémon.Yeah, totally the same.
>>58379705Which franchise has an entire board dedicated to it and which has to slum it up on /v/, hmm?
>>58379717Why would I care. I'll just post wherever.
>>58378121New design aren't "unoriginal", they're trying so hard to be original that they completely ignore trying to look cool, cute or beautiful.Gen 1 designs, whether you like them are not, set the definition of what Pokemons are, if you don't like them you don't like Pokemon so your opinion doesn't matter.And designs aren't even the main culprit, the art skills going to shit is.
>>58379722The artist probably could've turned the nose tape into a stripe crossing under the eyes and it'd look pretty cool.
>>58379728I don't really see what you mean but sure maybe
>>58378130Problem. We aren't laughing with feraligatr (toilet lid form), we're laughing at it.
>>58379584He's a tranny.
>>58379893you'll still remember it thoughmemorable > good
>>58378102Damn the thing on the right makes Gator mega look good
>itt: pokefags desperately trying to cope that their inferior franchise that's been crashing and burning for almost a decade now is still somehow betterkek
>>58379910Thats true. I need to flush the memory of how dogshit it is.
>>58379510
>>58380135Kek
>>58379490One time, I counted the recolors because somebody claimed it was more than 25%, which I found unlikely. It was 3 years ago and at that time there were 118 recolors (I don't remember seeing a new one since then, because I already counted Chamblemon and Cthyllamon), a third of them (36) being from the first Digimon World, due to 3D constraints (Pokemon was just front and back sprites that only move with translation of the whole body, Digimon had their special and normal attacks, they had to walk, run, defend themselves, eat, sleep, poop, push the rock for HP, nodding the head for intelligence, showing different levels of joy, sadness, anger etc and it was the beginning of 3D). I also counted things like Fugamon and Hyougamon, despite their silhouette being recognizable by the number of horns. Some were there for story purposes (Blackwargreymon in 02) and some are so underused you forgot they existed (Shoutmon Blue is an unreleased recolor who just appeared in one vpet), so when people complain about recolors, it's unlikely to be about them
>>58378102They completely lost their way and now design most Pokemon purely in the hopes of them becoming viral internet memes and generating quick publicity over all else. Conceptually lots of them are still solid and could've made for great designs (Mega Feraligatr turning its entire upper body into a giant set of jaws is a great concept on paper, for example) but they deliberately sabotage them or just put no effort into them now, because god forbid something simply be good and not permanently ruined to get the attention of the irony poisoned masses for three whole days.
>>58378743Game Freak would have a stroke tryin to animate this lmao
>>58378636Yes. In a few weeks the reactionary bitching will die down, and in a few months, people will be talking about how much they love the new designs
>>58379722I like Scorbunny
>>58378743>>58380680This is how Eternatus or Rayquaza should be animated in the 3D games, but Game Freak are too incompetent to do this.
>>58380690Your taste is incorrect and you are a bad person
>>58380736Don't care I like Scorbunny
>>58378102Who even knows what digimon that is ask anyone on the street and they’ll know feraligatr 9 times out of 10
>>58380855>ask anyone on the street and they’ll know feraligatr 9 times out of 10This isn't even fucking remotely true
