La creatura
Dropping Satoshi was a mistake. He was the face and the anime has been lost ever since.
>>59208063Cute.Is her name just an innuendo to the next storyline?
>>59208064He's not coming back
>>59208063I feel like these "characters with impossible hairstyles or clothes that make them look almost non-human" are wasted on the Pokemon franchise, honestly just go design characters for another fantasy franchise at this point (unless this intention here is that it's really a pokemon disguised as a human)
>>59208063Breedable.
>>59208064Reusing Satoshi indefinitely was a mistake; getting rid of him was the best thing that could have happened for the anime.
>>59208063Eww
>>59208063Looks like a made in abyss prototype design
>>59208063>>59208078Fifth Post Best Post.
>>59208063She's cute enough but very un-Pokemon. Especially the eyes and rabbit ears
>>59208063Why are Horizons’s OC designs getting worse?
>>59208074>>59208102This is how you know the character designers wish they were doing anything except Pokemon
>>59208063This bitch looks AI Generated
>>59208063damn... shes not wearing sandals.. when will we have a new feet showing pokegirl?
>>59208079While I agree with you, imo ending Ash has hurt the movie side of things a lot (first with the reboot then with the end of Journeys)Ash helped a lot with the movies since they don't need to reintroduce him or do a lot with him in regards to his overall journey, he works best as a vehicle to connect the viewer with the movie's featured legendary/mythical
>>59208064Dropping TrAsh was not mistake
>>59208064He's not coming back. Good riddance, got bored of that one dimensional little cunt like 2 decades ago.
>>59208063I see no one talk about this new anime lol
>>59208205You're literally in a thread talking about the anime, are you stupid?
>>59208205because Horizons watchers are able to keep themselves contained to their thread unlike Ashfags
>>59208063Wow, she almost looks like a normal human being with her hair down and if there aren't any retarded two-tone colors on her hair that make it look like plastic!
>>59208064>>59208079>Satoshi
>>59208063What is with pokemon characters now having weird asf eyes and hair
>>59208079>getting rid of him was the best thing that could have happened for the anime.how? the anime is just as bad or worse than when he was the main character.
>>59208064Dropping trash was the best thing ever but the new tranny characters are fucking pathetic holy shit
>>59208118Have you seen gen 9 designs?Liko herself is way more tame than most of those.>>59208205There's weekly seething threads aside from padt.
>>59208280Why is it weird to call him by his official name
>>59208313He's not coming back
>>59208325Ash is also official. Stop pretending to be Japanese. Use his English name.
>>59208063Uooohhhh.... caramel cunny...>>59208079What TPC should've done was something like Digimon: new character each new arc. Want to stick around with one? Fine, made him the hero for a couple of regions, and then let him go.But noooooo, they said "but Satoshi/Ash can't become a Pokémon Master", and we all saw how that ended in Gen 6 (he was lacking in Gen 4, but 6 he literally had everything to win, and yet they cuck him)
>>59208063This is some of the worst anime hair I've ever seen. How the fuck do those rabbit ears work?
>>59208063Does xe hear with those hair ears?
>>59208063>Dude watch Horizons it's good I promise
>>59208063Glad I dropped the anime 15 years ago
>>59208434>2023 is 15 years ago
>>59208064They tried Liko and she was a flop. That's why they pivoted away from her and towards Roy.
>>59208478Eww
>>59208063She got potential, they just need to get rid of the godawful pigtails.
>>59208482Ash >>> Liko
>>59208063niggerina is kinda cute>>59208064they should have dropped ash at gen 5he stopped being himself after that reset
>>59208478Roy was there from the begining.
>>59208063Woomy
>>59208064
>>59208495After the timeskip they started heavily focusing on Roy and Liko has taken a backseat.
>>59208064The anime, like the games, was always shit. You're just a sad, lonely faggot loser who clings to the past because he's too much of a bitch made coward to improve his present and future.
>>59208489Or at least give her a Lopunny/Cinderace so the bunny pigtails make sense.No lie, it feels like the artist wanted to make her an anthro character, but then the execs told them "no, she must be human."
>>59208063I mean she's meant to be from the Indonesia inspired region right?
>>59208063WTF IS THISLMAOOne furry please but chef.. make it while you close your eyes.What the fuck are these colors??? Wtf is she wearing??? Why is there just this random intense orange??? What are these weird eyelashes shapes?? What's up with her god damn eyes?? What IS this??? AHAHAH Is this supposed to be a kemonomimi? I don't even understand wtf is happening or why any of that was chosen. This is like a design from some low functioning autist on Deviantart who's drawing over an anime base. I'm genuinely confused how this even came to be. Was this character supposed to be pale because these desaturated hair colors do not go with that skin tone. Why would you ever have a design with such soft pastel hair and then this bright intense clothing like she just left a jamaican wedding??? Okay, this was so chaotic and ugly that I'm actually in a good mood now.
Pokemon's animations will fundamentally never, ever, EVER be good because they're made to be commercials for toddlers first and foremost, instead of being compelling entertainment.Doesn't matter if it's Ash, doesn't matter if it's Liko, doesn't matter if it's Roy, doesn't matter if it's Red, doesn't matter if it's a Poketoon. Everything is just a commercial by design.
>>59208063THIS child has to be part Pokemon, right?
>>59208063Brown children are so cute..... The things I'd do to them.......
>>59208527Watch the show instead of repeating shit seen on x.>>59208565>Pokemon's animations will fundamentally never, ever, EVER be good because they're made to be commercials for toddlers first and foremostIgnoring the fact that this is fundamentally retarded, why did this become law in 2023 and not before?
>>59208628It's been this way since the anime's inception, you just never noticed because you were a snot-nosed brat.
>>59208629So you knew and, somehow, went quiet for 26 years, sure sure.
>>59208641>NOOOOO YOU CAN'T GROW AND DEVELOP OPINIONS THAT INFORM YOUR RETROSPECTIVE VIEW ON SOMETHING YOU ENJOYED AS A KID, ONCE A CONSOOMER ALWAYS A CONSOOMER
>>59208649> GROW AND DEVELOP OPINIONS THAT INFORM YOUR RETROSPECTIVE VIEW ON SOMETHING YOU ENJOYED AS A KIDYou can. But I take it that happened exactly in 2023 right?
>>59208659Nope. It happened after Pokemania when the magic died off and I started seeing the cartoon for what it actually was, a commercial.Every kid between the 70's and Pokemania came to that same conclusion, because that's the main reason a vast majority of cartoons in those decades existed.
>>59208667So you did remain quiet, as I said.
>>59208669Just ignore the part where lots of people were shitting on the anime post-Pokemania in the early wild west internet. You just didn't see it because you didn't go to communities who were openly criticizing or shittalking the anime.I definitely don't remember seeing everyone praise and glaze Best Wishes on /vp/, on the contrary everyone was rightfully shitting on it for being a dogass soft reboot, and that was long before 2023, this magic date you insist upon.
>>59208063Looks retarded, from eyes to hair, basically worse looking brown Iono or Iris if Gen 9. Magearna's core eyes, lame top colored stripes, that whiff on her hair that reminds me of Yokai Watch mascot, reused Caitlin ribbons, Qwilfish's (twin)tails as hair...She definitely does compete with these two picrel for the worst designted AI/DeviantArt made characters.
>>59208693>shitting on the anime post-Pokemania in the early wild west internetBecause it was pokemon, not because the ashnime is shit.The same people posted about how cool it was that Ash won in gen 7 and 8 years later.>on the contrary everyone was rightfully shitting on it for being a dogass soft rebootPeople who watched the ashnime did.
>>59208698And they were laughed out of /vp/ for being autistics, because only autists still cared about the commercial for toddlers despite being far beyond the Pokemon anime's intended demographic.
>>59208704> they were laughed out of /vp/ for being autisticsKek no. /padt/ predates Horizons by long.We still have dedicated pokegirl threads and Horizons seething threads.I don't have it but there's the whole BURASTO BAAN seething pic.And, obviously, you.
>>59208714>B-BUT BUHRASTO BAHN PROVES PEOPLE CARED!!!!!!No, that was outsiders looking in and laughing. Everyone was coming together to jeer at the fact autists genuinely thought Ash would get a win, and relished in the seething of schizos like fagmon.
>>59208516>replying to yourself
>>59208725IIRC the pic had people seething, not laughing. But I don't have it on hand.>schizos like fagmon.This implies famon isn't the only ashfag.
>>59208565To this day, I will never understand how Pokemon can screw up there main anime, yet pour in a shit ton of effort into the Poketoon Specials and OVAsThe difference is night and day, most modern animes now adays look amazing, need I say Demon Slayer? or any Kyoani anime? Pokemon CAN make good animation. Evolutions, Origins, Twilight Wings, Generations, GOTCHA, some episodes of Poketoon, even the goddamn trailer for Pokemon Mastersex.The closes we got to that quality is XY, and then they cheapened out afterwards. It worked for SunMoon, but not for Journeys or Horizons. Are they actually just that cheap? or do they not see how much of a downgrade the new format is? AND WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE MOVIES!????
>>59208736>an autist can't understand performative behavior or sarcasmMany such cases.>This implies famon isn't the only ashfag.Yes, because there's Ashfags who seethe without going into tirades about how Yajima personally anally raped them, who seethe about Serena because they believe Ash's future sweetheart is one of the other countless girls they themselves likely had a childhood crush on, but later turned into self-insert fantasies using Ash as a shield for what was likely mocked as childish, immature behavior by their peers growing up.
>>59208746That's basic for animation anon.The anime are made on the fly without a set amount of episodes and has to have a weekly output while poketoon, OVAS and movies are basically fully scripted(at least in some way) making resource allocation easier(plus more development time).TV anime wont ever look as good as ONA or movies other than some rare instances.That's not a pokemon thing.>>59208748Wasting years of your life on something "performative" isn't the gotcha you think.>Yesthe famino defense only works if he's the only one.
>>59208544THIS???????? LIKE?????????????SHES SO UGLYYYYYYYYY OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
>>59208063such an abomination like every pokemons char. Design since gen 7
>>59208755>TV anime wont ever look as good as ONA or movies other than some rare instances.It did with XY and XYZ, and hell, even Digimon's anime looks better than Horizons, and thats also a kids anime. They can do it again, especially with all that money... I just dont know why they dont...
>>59208063okay the design is actually cute, I just dont like the color of her outfit. It should be one solid color instead of rainbow barf
>>59208772>It did with XY and XYZYeah, that Froakie fight sure gave Akira a run for its money.>even Digimon's anime looks better than HorizonsYes, I never said Horizons is the best a TV anime can look like.This doesn't magically make more workload less.
>>59208772You clearly didn't watch Horizon when it first started. It had way better animation before the timeskip. It's unknown what happened, but it's clear that something happen in the production when part 2 came up.>DigimonDigimon isn't the same as it was before. It's not a yearly long anime as it use to be. That's a series that actually take breaks. Ghost game came out in 2021, Beatbreak came out in 2025, 4 years in production.
>>59208799NTA but you think all digimon shows are made by the same staff that took years of paid vacations?
>>59208799> 4 years in production.only for it to look worse than all seasons of the pokeanime. Talk about a dead franchise
>>59208818Beatbreak looks great anon, saying it looks bad is as blatantly false as it having 4 years of production
>>59208063Looks like a human Lopmon
>>59208782>that Froakie fight I mean the later stuff, but even then, it was flashy in how it presented itself that made it feel high quality.>You clearly didn't watch Horizon when it first started.I did, I was initially one of the people hyping it up and saying it was better. but ever since the time skip, it really took a nose dive. over all my favorite episodes from the first half were that battle on the docks and the Cap x Friede origin story. Amazingly animated, but we've never had something like that since. Here's hoping the finally of this season pulls something spectacular.though I feel like it should just end here and start a new journey with new protagonists.
>>59208837>I mean the later stuffsuch as?>though I feel like it should just end here and start a new journey with new protagonists.well yeah, but its not horizons fault, its because wiwa delayed
>>59208805You know exactly what I meant. The only reason I said production was because I didn't know the proper name for the time period between series. I know that they have different staff for each series, the whole point is to explain that Digimon isn't running on air 24/7 compared to Pokemon.
>>59208063Why the fuck do they make stupid eyes like this? At this point, I reminiscence fondly about early franchise sameface
>>59208894>The only reason I said production was because I didn't know the proper name for the time period between series.Its just "time between series">the whole point is to explain that Digimon isn't running on air 24/7 compared to Pokemon.pokemon doesn't do that either, it runs half hour per week.And I know you meant that it doesn't have a set amount of episodes, which was already addressed. Its a retarded argument because the people producing a digimon show work on other things. The time between shows is irrelevant. If they aren't doing dIgimon they're doing another of Toei's show, sometimes simultaneously.
Why is every character in nu Pokémon a mixed race goblin with rainbow vomit eye and hair colours?
>>59208952DEI consultants + Vtubers
>>59208952Gooner faggots will still drawing shitty rule34 of them anywayThey even did it w the abominations of SV and ZA
>>59208952Xenobladeification of every nintendo franchices -_-
>>59208952Japan loves this woke tranime trashWeebs have combined with SJWs to form the ultrament cancer of all medias
Pokémon gave you a brown loli bunny girl and you're complaining?
>>59209105It literally looks like the most gay tranime shit ever.
>>59209105YesIts every cancerous tranime trope as one. For we longtime 4channers who grew up with REAL anime like Fist of the North Star instead of cancer like K-On, it was hate at first site.
>>59209105Well yeah, Ash isn't in it.
