Where did it all go wrong
why don't you like Juliana
>>58978014Funny how the new protags have an actual backpack and gear. I guess actual casual clothing isn't very good if you're traveling across the region.
>>58978014It's a mistery
>>58978067she looks like the blank template before you start customizing
>>58978014Japan has been woke for at least a decade now.Its a true shame, character design was one fo the few things gamefreak excelled at
>>58978014I think she's cute. Personally I'd goDawn>Rosa>May>WiWa girl>Juliana>Lyra
>>58978014I think the gen 10 girl is pretty cute, top tier even>B-but her legs are completely covered!!!Same as Rosa's you disingenuous faggot
>>58978088understandable, I like that about her
>>58978014>lyra
>>58978014You're not 10 anymore
>>58978137there will be no Lyra slander in this house
>>58978014Its weird that they noticeably aged the protags down from being plausibly 18-20 to around 13
>>58978014
>>58978234>plausibly 18-20yeah keep telling yourself that
>>58978267Yea Dawn always read as a bit older to me when I was a kid.Now the protags are very explicitly 13-14
>>58978014The new girl fit well on then though
>>58978014from hebe to actual loli. GF are madmen
>>58978014the WW girl is cute, Juliana does look like a blank template, though, would still plap of course
>>58978014Character customization
>>58978246Most generic bitch I have ever seen and the fucking stupid ass Walmart cap lmao
>>58978137>not liking lyrayou have a micropenis
>>58978333>>58978217ugly bitch looks like a trans mario cosplayer
>>58978014They took the soul away
>Lyralol, lmao
>>58978014why is lyshit in there?
>no more vertical long eyessad
>>58978267Serena was at least 17 like Emma, possibly older.
>>58978217>>58978333I like Lyra. She's just about mid tier when it comes to pokegirls. She's no Serena, Harmony, or USUM Selene. Now those ones are bad
>>58978014the new girl is cute I don't see the problem
>>58978458Not enough skin shownThat's their issue
>>58978014As others are saying, the new girl is actually pretty cute. You guys have to be rage baiting.
>>58978014Hilda mogs all of them, Pokemon girls are pathetic
>>58978479Rosa>Hilda
What's with the Lyra hate?
>>58978486Nah
>>58978014I understand now they have to be less iconic because they are supposed to be sheets you have to customize.Problem is the level of customization is so low that I would prefer iconics ones. If there isn't gonna be a wide range of options that make your character look like a character don't even bother
>>58978014>everything woke goes to shit
>>58978471>Not enough skin shownRosa is barely showing any more skin than the new femMC and a lot less than the girls that came before her and nobody freaked out about her when she came out.
>>58978514Yes
>>58978234...are you high?
>>58978014I think customization killed unique designs for the protagonistsnot that it had to but I guess gamefreak decided to go for a more generic design for future protagonists because of this
>>58978341
it isnt customization, gens 6/7/8 had good designs but also customizationits just bad designs
>>58978014I miss May and Dawn’s thicc legs
>>58978718I still do not understand how customization on 6 someway still feels like the best one even if now there are technically more options
Why did we get the Wallmart girl?
>>58978088Nigga that's literally who she is. Did you even play the game or are you just here to coom?
>>58978014>children's game has little girl characters>this triggers /vp/
>>58978014Gen 7 is when they got so lazy the MCs were just genderbent versions of each other. At least Calem and Serena looked different, every design afterwards was bad, it just wasn't noticeable until Gen 9.
I just don't understand why we can't have skirts.PUT SHORTS UNDERNEATH THE SKIRTS, ITS NOT THAT HARDNo, no one wanted Z-A's "skorts", just let me make my character look pretty again ffs
>>58978801NTA but I like the protags having an attractive base design since that's what most of the art will be of them. SFW or NSFW. Any custom character arts comes off as OCs more than Serena/Selene/Gloria/Juliana/Harmony and I couldn't care less about other peoples OCs. That said, I do like WiWa girl
Shes cute
>>58978014God, Dawn and Rosa were pure sex. How did they get away with that?
>>58978880>I just don't understand why we can't have skirts.Japanese censorship laws. CERO doesn't allow skirts in children's 3D games with free camera since a couple of years. Even spats + skirts are not allowed anymore.
>>58978959What about a black void? That'd have to be ok right?This just sucks
>>58978071Handbags/shoulderbags were just fine.
>>58978566I wouldn’t care about generic protags if it werent for the fact that theyve also been limiting the customization to gender neutral/androgynous outfits.ZA’s lack of skirts was fucking criminal. I dont care if the put modesty shorts underneath just let me have skirts back
>>58979037Black void seems to be ok on adult characters, don't think it's allowed on younger girls.
>>58978843Gloria
>>58978959>CERO doesn't allow skirts in children's 3D games with free camerathe people who think of and make laws for obscure shit like that are the real perverts
>>58979055my gripe with ZA's customization is that you barely get anything good for the male protaFemale clothing has way better optionsit's like they put the least effort on the male clothing for whatever reason
>>58979121The tweet says which one HAS the bigger ass, not which one IS the bigger ass
>>58978789DO THE WAGIE SHUFFLE
>>58978959>CERO doesn't allow skirts in children's 3D games with free camera since a couple of yearsIs this for reall or you are just making up bullshit?Judging how hard some countries go with "sexual" censoring isn't too far fetched, but Japan at least used to be cool on that front
Gen 10 protags are an insane step up from the tranny MCs from ZA and whatever the fuck gen 9's were
>>58979215How so?I can see the improvement over gen 9's but I think they look pretty close to ZA'aLooking at the trailer one could claim they are pretty much the same
>>58979215trans?
>>58978014You might be gay
>>58978880>just let me make my character look pretty again ffsTranny detected. Glad they stopped pandering to you freaks.
>>58978843hilda obvi
>>58978014tbdesu if you were to remove the undershirt from the Waves girl she'd probably go on the left categoryNo such simple fix for Jewliana
>>58979399Grandblue Dreaming gave me a fetish for diving/wetsuits, I think Wave-chan is pretty cute. Chicken is still my number 1, but compared to what we got in Gen 8 and 9 she's very cute.
>>58979215Tru
>>58978014>Rosa and Lyra>not Leaf and HildaShit taste
Rosa mogs Hilda
>>58979255>>58979268The feMC in ZA looks like genderfluid bullshit, infact some people didn't even realize the girl was a girl when they first showed her, I'm not making it up. The girl in gen 10 looks like a girl right away
>>58978246I hope that's not some gay switch esque table device you have to use
>>58979399why is her hair green here
>>58979204No, it's 100% true. Check literally any Japanese game suitable for children released in the past 4 or 5 years. Literally none of them allow any form of upskirt, including with spats.
>>58978014Legs expert here.Crazy how much Wave mogs Juliana in the leg deparment. They actually went back to TWO distinct genders for 10 gen. I kneel.
>>58980297No.
>>58980281>Cross-dressing Red>I do like Hilda's poofy ponytail, but Rosa brutally mogs her in every other aspect lol
>>58980408Yes
>>58978014Poor juliana, her design is so fucking shit
>>58978014Gen 6 with customizable MCs. Bland and boring as shit ever since.
>>58978014I don't like the color of her shirt but otherwise the Gen 10 protagonist is alright
>>58980426no nigHilda is SEX incarnate
>>58980436Should've been Nemona.
>>58978843Serena isn’t a child
i wonder how many loli's we'll get like we did for sun and moon.
>>58980604In SM we got 3 lolis and 2 hebes, 3 if you count chicken.If we are lucky we will get 2 lolis and 1 hebe this time, if we go by SwSh and SV standards.Shits looking grim dawg.
>>58980631SwSh gave us shotakino in allister.
>>58978014Oh no sexy brown girl in a skintight body suit>where did we go wrongYOU ARE ON CRACK AND ESTROGEN
>>58978880Shorts are sexo actuallyAnd comfortableAnd easy to move in
>>58980666Yeah but at what cost.
>>58980631Don’t forget to count Zossie
>>58978234>>58978267>>58978285>Keep telling yourself thatNTA but there is no way Rosa and Hilda are 10.
>>58978014>Lyra
>>58980824I constantly forget that her and those games even exist.
>>58980379>>58978959Source?
>>58980438This. Give me abysmal dogshit instead.
>>58981120this but unironically. I would take a shitty design every so often over consistently bland, mediocre, boring designs for protags.
>>58978880Blame the woke retards in the US. They need make sure the characters wear gender neutral clothing in appeasement to the mentally deranged trannies they unleashed
>>58980572>Academy has an extremely wide age range>Could've given us older protagonists again >Gives us the youngest looking protagonists instead At least Z-A exists
>>58978086is that the nickname of your wife's boyfriend?
Why do you hate this?
>>58982197what the fuck is that hairdid she accidentally lie down in a field of chewed bubblegum
>>58978088Character customization is cancer. It's a wonder Chicken was allowed to look at nice as she did in her canon outfit
>>58982205Two toned hair is all the rage in anime right now.
>>58982197ugly over designed soulless piece of shit
>>58982197She kinda cute
>>58978014The moment troons and faggots in Nintendo America got some control.
>>58982197
>>58982197Caraway!
>>58982357>>58982343>>58982197Getting really tired of them trying to convert me to woke with cute characters with dark skin.
>>58980388>They actually went back to TWO distinct genders for 10 gen You're actually retarded
>>58982332Uhm no, straight males hate attractive females, or that's what the sharty actually believes
>>58982332>Trannies are pedos and groom kids>Everyone who complains about lolicons are tranniesWhat is it then retard? Make up your mind already
>>58982343>tattooruined
>>58982197>>58982343>>58982357Its like they designed Geeta but actually good
>>58982435Improved.
>>58982343After the disaster of Gen 9, we're FINALLY Back
>>58982842You lost the culture war btw
>>58982466It's such a crazy improvement from gen 9 and 8 abominations.I don't get how they keep and keep fucking it up. Making cute or sexy dark-skinned and tanned anime girls is the easiest fucking shit in the world.
>>58978014>Where did it all go wrongWhen Sugimori stopped being the lead artist. May, Dawn, and Lyra are all Sugimori originals and Rosa was designed with his input. Everything from Selene onwards was designed with no input from him.
>>58978014Had a miss with SV protag, but glad to see we're back on track
>>58982368hey, the cowgirl is clearly a White chick with a tan from working outside
>>58978851Pokemon should have stopped being a children's game when its players all grew up. Give us adult protagonists already, that way the series can go into the dark themes that are obvious to this series' premise as well as keeping the fanservice.
>Design the SV protagonists as blank slates for character customization>>Characters are stuck in the ugliest outfits known to mankind, all the customization options just make you look garish and retarded
>>58978014>Cover up your males and leave the females uncovered because bugmen will chimp out>Have to cover up the females because straight pedophiles are retardsThey should have just made the boys show more skin along with the girls
>>58982898or at least make a spin-off series marketed toward an older demographic.
>>58982906>nu-Gen protags are bland because you can change their clothes later>fan artists only ever draw the boring ass base design
>>58978014The eyes got worse, starting with Rosa, then they kept getting rounder and rounder. But yes, shift Rosa into the "now/bad" category.
>>58983055her design isn't bland and she's hot as fuck, so no
>>58983065The eyes are awful and soulless. What the fuck is the white in the dead center.>reflectionNo, that's not where it should be. See every other human character.
>>58983282I agree the eyes are bad, but her hair and outfit are peak
>>58979037>>58979098this is loli blackhole pussy oppression
>>58978014yeah these are very uninspired and shitty. its literally just a girl wearing random stuff. i havent looked at the news enough so idk if you can customize them but.. thats not an excuse to make an ugly protag design. serena exists.
This thread ended up just being lyra slander
>>5898060211 is still a child anon
>>58983666she would've been better if she weren't drawn with the SSRI stare and a big dumb mario hat
>>58982197She needs to become pregnant
>>58980326It's for the Rotom hoverboardWe've known this for like a year now
>>58978014R*sa belongs on the right. She never had the standard eye shape of a real MC.
>>58978234>plausibly 18-20Lmao even Hilda/Rosa are 16 max. older teens for sure, but def not 18. 18-20 is just an adult, and none of the pokemon protags are adults.
>m-muh CEROWhy not simply make the protagonists of the game adults then?
>>58978014>I'll make one side visibly more zoomed in so they look olderHere's a true comparison.
>>58978566>I think customization killed unique designs for the protagonistsWe got Serena and Selene/Chicken-chan across two gens though?
>>58978340we don't sign our posts here
>>58984521Everyone in this shit except may and dawn look like shit
>>58984589How does Rosa look like shit?
>>58984610source material is shit. meaning dog shit design with goofy ass eyes.
>>58983714XY protags are built like young adults, you just see chibi models on the overworld
>>58978014The character designers realized they were suposed to be designing children and not college girls
>>58978014Back then you were allowed to acknowledge the realities of adolescent puberty.Nowadays your character must be either be 18 or 5 because acknowledging the fact that girls go through puberty makes you a pedophile or something.
>>58984498I routinely see girls thst look like Hilda and Rosa on my college campus. I guess wildly diffrent perceptions are inevitable when you abstract the way things look in the real world into a cartoon/anime artstlye
>>58984658Age of consent laws in other countries doesnt matterIts 18-21 based on the glorious brainwashed west and she BETTER LOOK OLDER or be FAT
>>58982466lol my thoughts exactly.
>>58978014I thought the whole point of the franchise was that the protagonist is a kid, but still old enough to somewhat plausibly take care of themselves on their own. The protags in these newer games look like they're 7. Why are children that young out roaming the countryside unsupervised?
