that's more the issue than anything. Game Freak's lower quality graphics were more in line with the capabilities of handhelds at the time but as they were made to move to consoles it quickly became clear they were only capable of mobile console tier graphics

USUM is what got me to upgrade my OG 3DS. Shit was chugging during Totems lmao

>I remember SM making a considerable step up while keeping the visual style consistent
I remember anons shitting on it for looking worse than yokai watch, dragon quest monsters, and monster hunter stories

Because every single time Pokemon came out, it was about a decade behind in visuals to every other game on the console. And that's for EVERY single Pokemon game.

You don't need good graphics. Look at tetris and minecraft.

They are fumbling the biggest franchise ever so it's natural to cope but you must suffer as every fan has suffered in this Jewish world.

USUM is the best looking Pokemon game in respect to its console. It's the exception and not the rule.

And you used as example the game where the MC NEVER FUCKING EMOTES?

>Alola looks straight up gorgeous at times despite being on the shitty 3DS
Lmao how are people still blaming the 3DS after all these years? The system has tons of games that run solid 3D, 60 fps, and look 10 times more gorgeous than Pokemon which couldn't even run in 3D and had to be sub fucking 20 fps

Id say HGSS are some of the better looking 2D games on the DS. BW could've looked amazing if they employed the same style but they really wanted to do HD 2D and the games visuals suffered for it
