OH NONONONO
disgusting.
>>58401545Who cares he’s not even the same now as he was 30 years ago.
>>58401545KILL IT
>>58401545>Pikachu got less fat AGAINEvery day we stray further from Arceus
>>58401545looks like a high skilled and talented indian CHAD modeled itbased
>>58401545Pikachu very slowly but surely turning phallus shaped.
>>58401545Terrible redesign
Ozempikachu
Looks like the round-headed Pikachu you see in promo art for VGC tourneys.
>>58401545Oh god...........................................................................................
>>58401545
>>58401545ahahahahhahaha These Mfers can't be serious
>>58401545They came for me, now they're coming for you.
>>58401545I KNEW IT. I KNEW THEY WANTED TO TURN HIS HEAD ROUND. I SAW THIS COMING. HE NO LONGER HAS CHEEK CURVES. oh no.
always liked that very early art of pikachu with a white stomach
>>58401545In gen 11, every mon will just be different colors and sizes of circles. Any angles are completely forbidden.
>>58401545It just keeps getting worse with this franchise eh?
>>58401545why don't the retards at GF understand that everyone prefers Fatchu???
>>58401623anon he's holding an egg
>>58401545This is the Shin-chan meme in action.
>>58401642ohwell the chubbier pikachu is still supreme
>>58401545>melonheadchu is making it to the gameskill us all
>>58401545They removed his foreskin
Why does Pikachu no longer have a milk moustache?
>>58401650He's not holding an egg, anon is just retarded
>>58401545What happened to my cubby kawaii electric fatrat?!
>>58401669rude
>>58401712cope, if that's too rude for you go back to redduit
>>58401698Fat Pikachu was never really a thing in the anime, which altered Pikachu's proportions to make it easier to animate.
>>58401750Like, even in the first episode, Pikachu wasn't that far off from its modern design.
>>58401545It looks a lot more like the corporate art style than before. The side angles fine but front on is a bit creepy
>>58401766>>58401750ok apologizer
>>58401545I fucking hate bobblehead-chu so much it's unreal.
This will be pikachu in 2050
>>58401545Well, it just confirms that they're probably re-moddeling them all, and we will not get the whole Nat Dex.
I prefer THE ORIGINAL original.
>>58401545There is a reason why coca-cola still sells the classic shape and I have yet to see a single person who likes Pikachu with a circle head
>be lamefreak>be incompetent as hell>can't even make one game right>decide to work on several projects at once anyway>at budget that makes indie developers look like fat cows>waste your dev time and resources doing the most useless and wasteful shit instead of actually developing a good gamemillions of shit eaters will still line up to eat the slop, and they deserve it
>>58401900the japs looooooove mascot characters with tiny bodies and big heads. a japanese company will always cater to the japanese, even if a majority of their audience is overseas
>>58401545>First new model of an old Pokemon in a decade>it's complete dog shitmaybe this is why is they never made new ones.
>>58401545Someone sends GF a letter telling them they are about to make the worst decision of their lives . This is definitely a bad time to change Pikachu's design
>>58401931Charizard, Persian, and Mewtwo got new models in SV
>>58401927I wish that meant they are gonna crash and burn, but they won't because shills and shitters will keep consooming.
This is a very funny thing to do immediately after making Mega Raichus whose shtick is looking like current Pikachu
>>58401941>This is definitely a bad time to change Pikachu's designThe 30th anniversary of the franchise and a new generation is literally the perfect time to do this. It just happents to be an awful redesign.
>>58401545Gaia is set to be a complete disaster
>>58401545Gen 10 from what we know,>awful pikachu redesign >procedurally generated islands>turbo woke gym badges Happy 30th pokemon fans
>>58402228You're gonna but it anyway
>>58402293I'm not even sure desuI've already skipping out on Z-A
>>58401750>its like a cat crying out the word "cat"goddman this sounds really retarded when you read it
>>58401545Old Pikachu is officially dead
>>58402228And slop eating pigs will devour it anyway. Grim.
>>58401587Left is an infinitely better design, it’s much simpler in a good way
>>58401545Raichu is slowly turning into Pikachu. Pikachu is slowly turning into Pichu.IT'S MADNESS
>>58401942Venusaur, Blastoise, Ninetales, Ho-Oh, Lugia, Entei and Suicune also got new models. Groudon either had a new model or the old one got a new pose, cant tell.
>>58401545Why are his hips so thick
>>58401545Pokemon wind farts and pokemon piss waves
>>58401545I genuinely think they prefer Eevee as a mascot and have been actively trying to make Pikachu less appealing
>>58401545horrific.
I already fucking hate Gen 10 lol
>>58402712Eevee has always made more sense as the mascot
>>58401545Why the fuck are they forcing pikachu to have that round bobble head for? Don't we already have pichu?
>>58401545I hate that xy pikachu model they've been recycling for over a decade, so whatever.
>>58402712brown is a much more neutral color and less harsh/ugly than pikachu's neon yellow at least
I am done with Pokemon.Digimon would never ruin Augomon like this.The feminisation of Pokemon is pissing me off.
Makes it look more like one of my favorite card arts, I like it.
>>58403641That style has been used for half a decade in Pokémon media but secondaries don't even know it and just complain
>>58403871I have been hating on melonhead for years
>>58402504KEK wtf happened to this franchise
>>58401545Yup, this is the new top vindicated reason on why anybody would want to shove a thunderstone up pikancer's ass.
>>58401545This has been the standard design since 2010.They're taking the Donkey King route of updating from the reused model they've been porting over for decades.The only change is that it's getting de-Sugimori'd to match the corporate-friendly stock art style since Black & White
>>58404407*a decade, many years But the point still stands. They're trying to make Pikachu look more bland
>>58401545it's like that corporate pikachu
>>58404424it looks awful in 3d
>>58401545They're gonna make everything easier to model in 3d aren't they?Tubes cylinders and spheres all the way downAnd they'll gaslight youNew slop defenders will eat it up
It's another sign of Corpo enshitificationI'm not saying it's the absolute end - change is always potentially a positive thingBut it is a common sign for crystallization/stagnation
>>58404569
>>58401880hey it's Pikaichu
>>58404407>>58404424Even with the corporate art, pikachu has still been fat in the anime and official art for the gamesGuess they're changing to ozempichu in the next anime series too
>>58401545Actually looks like a mouse now
>>58401545>>58401631TPC probably held them at gunpoint to change itI can see the reception being so negative that they chancmge it back in the next game lol
>>58401545nobody is commenting on how the browns are yellow now?
>>58401545mickey mouse changes
>>58401545Even with the corporate body shape, all they have to do is give it attitude to salvage itEarly anime and the NA box art for Yellow made him look like a hard ass despite his soft exterior, like the old Kirby box arts
>>58405134nobody is commenting on how my mommy just disappeared?
>>58401631i love this yellow nigga like you wouldnt believe
>>58401545Haha now I know the leaks are fake
>>58401608>>58401631Any chu that isn't drawn like this, or like the old adventures manga is a fraud skinwalker imo.
They really should go back to 2D
>>58401545they put the fucking rat on ozempic
>>58405586>they really should make the games objectively worse for no reason in particular
>>58405598bait
>>58405589kek
>>58405622bait
Not sure if zoomer or b8
>>58405589this is serious
>>58401579/thread
>>58401545>>58401587WHY DOES JAPAN ALWAYS DO THIS SHIT?
>>58405792One Piece just has a shit style innately
>>58405792It's their time/turn
>>58405792the real evolution [of a series] is the fat they lose along the way.
>>58405792Chopper is probably the worst case of this happening. He comes back from a 2 year time skip getting smaller, thinner, and more childlike. The fact that they chose to do this redesign when characters are supposed to GROW is what makes it so profoundly retarded.
>>58405888Hey anonI'm curious to know if you knowDoes this happen in the Manga?Recently started reading/on Ch 3 nowNice triple btw
>>58401545It really doesn't bother me, I grew with the classic fatchu, and I consider the current Pikachu as bad as this Powerpuff Girls looking thing.
>>58405918Yes it happens in the manga too. He turns into a keychain mascot.
>>58403871I've known about that pikachu for years, and it's fine as a occasional style, NOT its actual model in games.
>>58402228>turbo woke gym badgesI haven't heard about this. What's happening?
>>58405888The worst part is that all his forms get stronger, and then Kung Fu Point keeps getting used.
>>58401900It looks better then the old model. So does fat pikachu though. The one we’ve had the last like 12 years now is just so bland.
>>58405792objectively the new one is better
>>58401631Look at this tubby little bastard. It's like the cute mice that crawl under my floorboards. Inherently a shape I want to hold between my hands.Now look at the starving dickhead in the OP. Appalling
>>58401545I really don't understand why they just keep deciding to reinvent the wheel over and over again. This is a big reason why all the games are small, rushed yet late on schedule and over budget. They can't even figure out how to make the previous engine and models to work and they wanna remake it all again? Who actually wants this?This NEVER goes well. There's always a serious compromise in game content that comes with it.
>>58401545Pikachu is supposed to be a rat not a gecko.
BALDY LITTLE ROUNDY-HEADED TWAT
>>58405589Pikachu? more like Ozempicachu amirite
Someone should make one of those corporate logo enshittification charts with pikachu
>>58405888>He comes back from a 2 year time skip getting smaller, thinner, and more childlikeNo he doesn't. His design changed well before the timeskip happened.
>>58405792I guess they see the giant, round head as cuter for mascots. The dumb proportions probably also makes merch easier to design
>>58405888Every main character got flanderized hard in post-time skip OP
>>58401545NOOOO MAKE HIM FAT
>>58401910>>58401944>>58401979>>58402228>>58402293>>58402373I am 100% pre-ordering because I'm not a poor shit colored skin tone third world invader
>>58408757Legends Galar will be FatChu's send off
>>58405792more appealing to women, because it makes the character look more like a baby. They project their motherly desires onto those characters because they're all childless and single and eternally bitter about it
