I prefer the real Archie and Shelly. Why did so many fans accept their race swap?
>>
The new ones look less generic

the sex

It didn't feel woke because the designs are genuinely good also everyone knows that blacks are pirates

"Generic" is what made classic pokemon so comfy.

I’m fine with either Archie, but Gen 6 Shelly is a travesty. Could not imagine playing Alpha Saphire over Omega Ruby.

The new versions were superior
>>
The redesigns are sluttier.

because the redesigns are miles better than the originals and i'm saying this as a huge hoennfag who grew up with RSE. i still like classic shelly, but OG archie looks lame as fuck to me now.
ORAS also released before wokefatigue/race swaps were literally everywhere, and i'm pretty sure that team aqua are probably just meant to be islanders or okinawan anyway.

Sure, that picture you posted doesn't do him justice, but when i think of Archie i think of anime Archie. The original Archie is far more iconic and fits with the classic pokemon art style and tone. If you were to put brown Archie in the classic anime he'd look out of place as fuck.
>>
>>58912633
Imo the magma redesigns gave that team much needed personality but the aqua redesigns went way overboard. I dont even mind the race swap but they look less like criminals and more like circus performers.
>>

>they look less like criminals and more like circus performers
That's my take too. OG Archie looks like a gang leader you'd find on the docks while new Archie looks like a flashy fantasy pirate moviestar.

Nah they even do the red head swap.
ORAS aqua are Somali pirates.
>>
Because now black people play poketmans too and also we like sex now.

>>58912633
ORAS Aqua mogs I’m afraid

Your mom liked sex since before you were born.
>>
>>58912633
I think they should both exist
>>
>>58913934
they do with the whole split timeline deal, that's why we got the originals with rainbow rocket.

>>58912633
RSE Maxie > ORAS Maxie (chad land expander vs glasses need)
RSE Archie = ORAS Archie (I like both and a middle ground between the two would be perfect)
ORAS Shelly > RSE Shelly (brown goddess, enough said)
RSE Kourtney > ORAS Kourtney (smug evil lady vs quirk chungus yandere)
>>
>>58912633
Suit yourself as for me all four of them can get it

>>58912696
I never understood, where the remake designs niggers or spics?
I'm confused and this is troubling
>>
>>58912633
No one cares about RSE’s iteration of either Aqua or Magma & the only time they’re mentioned is to clown on their retarded plan. The remake redesigns are much better.
>>
>>58914580
What exactly is your appeal of changing the ethnicity of existing characters? It feels very parasitic in a sense.
>>
>>58915001
they know that a black character could never stand on their own so the only way to make an appealing black character is to raceswap an already appealing character. Like with Little Mermaid
